This Wednesday, April 8, we`re starting with news involving the U.S. and Cuba. Along with Iran, Sudan and Syria, Cuba is on the U.S. government`s list of countries that sponsor terrorism. It`s been on that list since 1982 because Cuba`s government was helping communist rebels in Latin America and Africa.

今天是周三，四月8號，今天的新聞涉及美國和古巴。和伊朗，蘇丹，敘利亞一樣，古巴是美國政府支持恐怖主義黑名單列表上的國家。自1982年古巴支持拉丁美洲和非洲共產(chǎn)黨叛軍開始，美國政府就已經(jīng)將其列入黑名單。

But last year, President Obama announced the U.S. would work toward normalizing relations with Cuba, toward breaking down barriers from the cold war.

但是去年，奧巴馬總統(tǒng)宣布美國將改善與古巴間的關(guān)系，打破冷戰(zhàn)時期的僵局。

Cuba wants off the terrorism sponsor list. And the U.S. State Department is considering recommending that. U.S. officials say President Obama is still concerned about Cuba`s record on human rights and Cuban officials have warned the U.S. not to meddle with their government.

古巴希望從恐怖名單中退出，美國國務(wù)院也正在考慮這一提議，美國官員稱奧巴馬總統(tǒng)依然擔心古巴過去人權(quán)罪行，古巴方面也警告美國稱不要干涉古巴政府。
