韓美聯(lián)合軍演 朝鮮警告將進(jìn)行核打擊

South Korea and the United States have been allies since the Korean War in the early 1950s. The North Korea has remained their rival. Every year, the U.S. and South Korean join forces in military drills. They`re exercises to practice defensive moves against North Korea in case war on the peninsula ever breaks out again.

自20世紀(jì)50年代朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭以來，韓國和美國一直是盟友，而朝鮮一直是兩國敵人。韓國和朝鮮每年都會進(jìn)行軍演，目的是為了防止朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭再次爆發(fā)。

But the drills anger North Korea, and every year, while they`re going on, the country makes threatening statements against South Korea and the U.S. This year, North Korea`s military is threatening a preemptive nuclear strike.

但是，兩國的軍演行為激怒了朝鮮，每年在美韓進(jìn)行演習(xí)時(shí)，朝鮮就會對美韓發(fā)表威脅言論。而今年，朝鮮軍方威脅將會先發(fā)制人，進(jìn)行核打擊。

Tensions in the region are higher than usual, and the military exercises are the largest ones ever.

該地區(qū)局勢繼續(xù)升級，軍演達(dá)到有史以來最大規(guī)模。

Three hundred thousand South Korean troops, 17,000 Americans, all involved in eight weeks of drills, which will take place on land, sea and air.

三十萬韓國士兵、17,000名美國士兵將參加這次長達(dá)8周的海、陸、空軍事演習(xí)。

Now, South Korea`s defense ministry says that they have increased their surveillance on the North, trying to see if there are any signs of an imminent attack. They say at this point that there is no movement.

日前，韓國國防部稱已加強(qiáng)對朝鮮監(jiān)視，以防朝鮮會發(fā)動(dòng)突然襲擊。但是，現(xiàn)在，朝鮮沒有采取任何行動(dòng)。

Now, tensions are always higher at this time of year because of these drills between the U.S. and South Korea. Pyongyang sees them as a dress rehearsal for an invasion. Washington and Seoul say they are defensive in nature.

由于美韓聯(lián)合軍演，緊張局勢再次升級。平壤將這次軍演視為侵襲彩排。但美韓稱這本質(zhì)只是防御行為。

But this year is even more tense than normal. Consider the year we`ve had so far. In January, North Korea carried out a nuclear test. In February, North Korea carried out a satellite launch, which most country saw as a missile test. And then just last week, the U.N. passed unprecedented sanctions against North Korea. On Friday, Kim Jong-un, the North Korean leader, said he wants his nuclear weapons at the ready should he want to use them at a moment`s notice.

但是，今年局勢比往年更加嚴(yán)峻。考慮今年發(fā)生的事情。今年1月，朝鮮進(jìn)行核炸彈試驗(yàn)。2月份，朝鮮進(jìn)行衛(wèi)星發(fā)射，但多數(shù)國家認(rèn)為這朝鮮進(jìn)行的是導(dǎo)彈發(fā)射實(shí)驗(yàn)。周五，朝鮮最高領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人，金正恩命令朝鮮核武器要隨時(shí)準(zhǔn)備好，隨時(shí)待命、

And don`t expect things to come down anytime soon. These military drills go on until the end of April.

不要期待事情會有進(jìn)一步發(fā)展，因?yàn)檫@次美韓聯(lián)合軍演將會持續(xù)到4月底。
