伊朗军演试射三种新型导弹 (Iran Fires Three New Missiles in Military Exercises)

伊朗说，它在波斯湾的第二天军事演习中试射了三种新型导弹。伊朗国家电视台星期五播放了革命卫队从岸边的移动发射平台和战舰上试射伊朗官员所称的“诺尔”、“科萨尔”和“纳萨尔”三种导弹的画面。伊朗官员说，导弹可以抵达波斯湾、霍尔木兹海峡以及阿曼海的任何地点。

伊朗星期四说，在10天军事演习的第一天的最初几个小时试射了若干枚导弹。美国国务卿赖斯表示，伊朗试射导弹在努力于显示其实力，并且告诉全世界它不会被阻止获得核武器。

Iran says it has test fired three new types of missiles during a second day of military exercises in the Persian Gulf. Iran state television showed footage Friday of the elite Revolutionary Guard firing what officials named Noor, Kowsar and Nasr missiles from mobile launching pads on the shore and from warships. Iranian officials say the missiles are capable of hitting targets anywhere in the Gulf region, the Strait of Hormuz and the Sea of Oman.

Iran said Thursday it had test-fired numerous missiles in the first hours of a 10-day military exercise. U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Tehran's action is an effort to demonstrate its strength and tell the world it will not be stopped from getting a nuclear weapon.

科研人员警告世界可食海洋生物面临灭绝 (Researchers Say World Seafood Supplies Face Collapse)

一项新的研究警告：如果过度打捞和污染继续下去，世界上的鱼类和可食用海洋生物将面临灭绝。这份发表在《科学杂志》上的文章说，世界上可供食用的海洋生物的数量到2048年将瓦解。研究人员得出结论认为，海洋鱼类的种类数量已经有所下降，其中有29%的面临消亡。

这一研究的主要负责人说，这个结果完全超出了他的预期。他说，海洋生物多样性的消失将危及海洋从全球变暖以及污染中恢复过来的能力。

A new study warns that world fish and seafood populations face collapse if overfishing and pollution continue. The study, published in the magazine, Science, says world seafood populations could collapse by the year 2048. The researchers conclude that the variety of ocean fish has already declined, with 29 percent of species in collapse.

The lead researcher in the study said the results were beyond anything he expected. He said the loss of what he called the oceans' biodiversity hampers the ability of the seas to recover from global warming and pollution.
