SCRIPT

Hello, I am Neil Nunes with the BBC news.

1.0:04 Hundreds of migrants trying to reach the European Union are stranded on the border between Hungary and Serbia. A newly completed razor wire fence has shut off informal crossings, and asylum seekers say they have found many official entry points closed. Hungary has announced that it's planning to extend the fence along part of its border with Romania. Large crowds of

migrants are growing frustrated, and calling for crossing points to be opened. Our correspondent Lyse Doucet is with crowds of migrants on the Serbian side of the border. “They’ve been urged by the Serbian officials who spent the day here, and also by UN officials that they should go to a nearby center. There is food, there is water, there are beds, but everyone that I am speaking to said they are not going to leave here, and the Serbians are bringing imported cabins, toilets, because they know people are going to be here for some time.”

2.01:00 The US military says Australian fighter jets have carried out their first airstrikes on Islamic State militants in Syria. Australia said last week that it would be expanding its role in the American led coalition against the Jihadist group. Steve Jackson reports. “A statement from the US military said coalition aircrafts struck 3 Islamic State targets inside Syria on Monday, and that Australia was one of the nations involved. Australian fighter jets have already been taking part in attacks on IS in Iraq, but the government decided last week to step up its role. Partly in responses to the growing refugee crisis caused by the conflict in Syria, the Australian foreign minister Julia Bishop warned that the campaign against Islamic State will take years, not months. IS still controls large areas of Iraq and Syria, and the airstrikes have yet to turn the tide against the militants.”

3.01:52

The US secretary of state John Kerry has discussed the conflict in Syria with the Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov. It was the third phone call in ten days. Washington has accused Moscow of boosting its military presence in Syria, Russia has said it's helping the Syrian government combat Islamic State militants.

4.02:11

The founder of Facebook says the social network is to add a dislike button to the website. Mark Zuckerberg said the company had been asked many times to provide an alternative to the like button used to respond to posts. Dave Lee has this report. “Facebook's like button is a simple way for users to signal approval of virtual thumbs-up. The most popular content on Facebook can gain millions upon millions of likes in just a few hours. Yet since the button’s introduction in 2009, many of Facebook users have been calling for the opposite, a dislike button to signal disapproval. Although reluctant at first, Facebook is giving in to those demands, but chief executive Mark Zuckerberg says he wanted the button to signal empathy or pity, rather than nastiness.” World news from the BBC.

5.03:00

Saudi officials have taken action against a construction firm after one of its cranes collapsed onto the ground of mosque in Macca. More than 100 worshipers died in Friday's accident. The Bin Laden group, one of Saudi Arabia's largest companies, has been barred from taking on new contracts spending in an investigation, its existing projects will also be reviewed.

6.03:23

The United States has warned North Korea to refrain from provocative behavior after the communist state said it had resumed normal operations at its main nuclear facility. The White

House press secretary Josh O’Nerst gave this reaction to developments. “We will repeat our call, and that North Korea should refrain from irresponsible provocations that aggravate regional tensions, and should focus instead on fulfilling its international obligations and commitments. The position of United States and this is a position that is shared by countries around the world including significant players in the region that we will not accept North Korea as a nuclear state.” 7.04:04 The former first lady of Guatemala Sandra Torres will stand against a television comedian in a presidential runoff election in October. The electoral authorities have ruled that Ms. Torres was runner-up the first round last week. She narrowly defeated a center-right business man, who pulled out of the race before the result was announced saying the vote had been rigged.

8.04:25 California says raging wild fires have now destroyed nearly 600 homes in the north of the US state. Some 1800 square km of forests are blazed, left parched by four years of draught.

9.04:40

The founder of Amazon has announced plans to build a launch rocket from Cape Canaveral in the US state of Florida.

10.04:47

篇三:朝鲜向半岛东部海域再发一枚导弹

朝鲜向半岛东部海域再发一枚导弹 The South Korean military says North Korea fired another missile off its east coast into the sea just as president Obama hosts the summit in Washington on global nuclear security. The missile launch was the latest in a series carried out by Pyongyang that has exacerbated tensions in the wake of North Korea's nuclear test in early January. From Seoul, here's Steve Evens. The missile launch came shortly after president Obama met his South Korean and Japanese opposite members in a big conference in Washington to discuss nuclear proliferation.

President Obama has had talks with the Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the sidelines of the nuclear summit in Washington. The White House said they discussed the shared effort to defeat the IS group in Syria.

Tens of thousands of supporters of the Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff have taken part in nationwide protests against the campaign to impeach her. The rallies are part of a fightback by the president whose popularity has fallen because of the country's economic crisis and a long-running corruption scandal. She's rejected accusations of budget irregularities. Her predecessor and ally Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is also under investigation for alleged money-laundering. He has denied the charge.

A new report says more adults in the world are now obese than underweight and there is almost no chance of meeting a global target to reduce obesity. Scientists say that four decades ago, being underweight was a bigger problem than obesity but today that situation has dramatically changed. The co-aouther of the report Majid Ezzat said processed foods were largely to blame. More and more people are eating highly-processed foods. It's much more costly to eat hotel fresh foods than processed foods. By processed foods, I don't precisely mean the sort of foods that is prepared then package, but just carbohydrate it's highly refined.

Police in the Indian city of Kolkata say it's unlikely that more survivors will be found in the wreckage of a partially-built flyover that collapsed on Thursday. At least 24 people are now known to have been killed. Justin Roller reports. This morning, specialist rescue workers pull out another body from the rubble of shattered concrete and the tangle of steel. The official line say they don't expect to find any more survivors but here in Kolkata they still haven't given up all hope. What people want to know is why what should have been a fairly straightforward construction project ended in such terrible disaster. It is the latest world news from the BBC. The company operating Brussels airport says it will partially reopen today, ten days after the suicide bomb attacks which killed 32 people there and at a metro station. The company said that following repairs to the departure hall, the airport was technically ready to operate at about 20 percent of its normal capacity. The first flights are not expected before this evening.

The front-runner to be the Republican candidate in the US presidential election Donald Trump has made a surprise attempt to improve his increasingly strained relations with party leaders. Mr Trump visited the Republican national committee in Washington. Earlier this week, he angered the party's establishment by backing away from a pledge to support whoever wins the nomination. Some of the biggest names in rock music have paid tribute to David Bowie at a concert in New York. Bowie died in the city in January at the age of 69. From New York, here's Nick Bryant. The irony of this tribute concert was that it was planned months before David Bowie's death and unexpectedly became a basic memorial held at the Carnegie Hall on the very

stage that he made his New York debut in 1972. Stars like Debbie Harry, Cyndi Lauper and Michael Stipe performed his legendary hits Starman, Life On Mars, Rebel Rebel. Another memorable moment, Heroes, the song that David Bowie performed at a 9·11 memorial concert in New York and dedicated to local firefighters.

A viola player is suing the Royal Opera House in London for ruining his hearing and his career during rehearsals of Die Walkure. Chris Goldscheider says his hearing was irreversibly damaged by brass instruments placed immediately behind him. The Musicians Union says hearing damages is a major problem for musicians playing in orchestras.The Royal Opera House denies it's responsible. Around a quarter of its players suffer hearing illnesses. BBC news.
