1 /  Biden sweeps more primaries

拜登贏關(guān)鍵州選勢(shì)如虹

Joe Biden decisively won Michigan's Democratic presidential primary on Tuesday. The former vice president's victory there, as well as in Missouri and in Mississippi, dealt a serious blow to his opponent Bernie Sanders, and substantially widened his path to the nomination. 

當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間10日，美國(guó)前副總統(tǒng)喬·拜登在關(guān)鍵州密歇根州的民主黨初選中獲勝，除了密歇根州以外，拜登還拿下了密蘇里州和密西西比州，給了對(duì)手伯尼·桑德斯沉重一擊。至此拜登朝著成為總統(tǒng)提名人又前進(jìn)了一大步。

Biden again showed strength with working-class voters and African Americans, who are vital to winning the Democratic nomination. Guy Cecil, chairman of the Democratic political organization Priorities USA, tweeted: "The math is now clear. Joe Biden is going to be the Democratic nominee for president and @prioritiesUSA is going to do everything we can to help him defeat Donald Trump in November."

拜登再次展現(xiàn)了他在工薪階層和非洲裔選民中的影響力，而這些人對(duì)于贏得民主黨提名至關(guān)重要。最具影響力的民主黨外部政治組織"優(yōu)先美國(guó)行動(dòng)"主席蓋伊·塞西爾在推特上發(fā)文表示，目前的形勢(shì)已經(jīng)很清晰了，拜登將成為民主黨總統(tǒng)提名人，"優(yōu)先美國(guó)行動(dòng)"將竭盡所能幫助他在11月打敗特朗普。

2 / Nurse gets Messi's jersey

抗疫護(hù)士獲贈(zèng)梅西球衣

Wu Yu, a nurse in the third medical team dispatched to Wuhan from Xiangya Hospital, Hunan, didn't expect her wish would come true so soon. On the eve of International Women's Day, she made a special wish during an on-camera interview, hoping Argentinian superstar footballer Lionel Messi could send her 8-year-old son a jersey. 

湖南湘雅醫(yī)院第三批支援武漢醫(yī)療隊(duì)護(hù)士吳宇沒想到自己的愿望能這么快實(shí)現(xiàn)。三八婦女節(jié)前夕，她接受采訪時(shí)對(duì)著鏡頭許下了一個(gè)特別的愿望：希望阿根廷超級(jí)球星梅西能夠送她八歲的兒子一件球衣。

"I believe a jersey from Messi would definitely encourage my boy to become a member of the national youth training team," the mother said. 

她說(shuō)："有了偶像的球衣，相信可以激勵(lì)他努力成為國(guó)家青訓(xùn)隊(duì)隊(duì)員。"

That night, the official Weibo account of Argentina's national football team responded: "Hello, nurse mother! After hearing your wish, we are going to send you a No 10 Messi jersey. We hope your son can have a brighter future after wearing his idol's shirt!" 

當(dāng)晚，阿根廷國(guó)家足球隊(duì)官方微博回應(yīng)稱："護(hù)士媽媽您好，聽到你的愿望，我們給你送上一件阿根廷國(guó)家隊(duì)的十號(hào)梅西球衣，希望您的兒子穿上偶像戰(zhàn)袍之后，擁有美好前程！"

Coming out of the hospital after a night shift, Wu received the good news the next morning. "I didn't expect this wish to come true because I just wanted to encourage my son," she said, adding that one of the reasons she had requested to join the fight against coronavirus in Wuhan is that she wanted to set a good example for her son, telling him that no difficulty can stop people from chasing their dreams.

上夜班的吳宇第二天早上才接到這個(gè)好消息，她說(shuō)，一開始只是想鼓勵(lì)孩子，沒想到真的可以實(shí)現(xiàn)這個(gè)愿望。她還說(shuō)，自己之所以報(bào)名到武漢抗擊新冠病毒，也是想要給兒子做一個(gè)榜樣，告訴他任何困境都難不倒一顆奮發(fā)努力的心。

3 / Bad guys cannot use iPhones

電影中壞人不用iPhone?

"Knives Out" film director Rian Johnson has unveiled a secret in the world of product placement - villains cannot use iPhones on the big screen. 

電影《利刃出鞘》的導(dǎo)演萊恩·約翰遜近日曝出了植入廣告界的一個(gè)秘密——壞人不能在電影中用蘋果手機(jī)。

Johnson, whose film credits include "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" and "Looper", told Vanity Fair that "bad guys cannot have iPhones on camera". 

約翰遜告訴《名利場(chǎng)》雜志："壞人不能在鏡頭前使用蘋果手機(jī)。" 約翰遜還執(zhí)導(dǎo)過(guò)電影《星球大戰(zhàn)：最后的絕地武士》和《環(huán)形使者》。

He added: "Every single filmmaker that has a bad guy in their movie that's supposed to be a secret wants to murder me right now." 

他補(bǔ)充說(shuō)："每個(gè)電影中有隱藏壞人的導(dǎo)演現(xiàn)在肯定都想殺了我。"
