The United States rejected the negotiation with North Korea
美国拒绝与朝鲜进行谈判
Last Friday,Rex W. Tillerson, U.S Secretary of State, ruled out any ongoing negotiations with North Korea in order to freeze the possibility of its nuclear weapon and missile programs. For the first time, he said, "If they raise the threat of their weapon program to an unacceptable level, the Trump administration would be forced to take preemptive action."
上周五，美国国务卿雷克斯·W·蒂勒森(Rex W. Tillerson)排除了与朝鲜进行任何谈判，以冻结其核武器及导弹计划的可能。他还首次表示，“如果他们将其武器计划的威胁提高”到一个不可接受的水平，特朗普政府可能被迫采取先发制人的行动。
The day before his meeting with Chinese leaders in Beijing, Tillerson made the above-mentioned statement in Seoul, unambiguously refused to allowthe DPRK to fight for more time by returning to the negotiating table in order to accelerate its nuclear test program.North Korea's leader, Kim Jeong-eun, said on New Year's day that North Korea was in the final stages of preparing for the first launch of an Intercontinental ballistic missile that could reach the United states”.
在前往北京与中国领导人会面的前一天，蒂勒森在首尔做出了上述表态，明确拒绝通过重返谈判桌来争取时间、阻止朝鲜加速其核试验项目。朝鲜领导人金正恩在新年时宣称，本国正处在为可以抵达美国的洲际弹道导弹首次发射做准备的“最后阶段”。
"Strategic patience has ended," said Tillerson.
“战略耐心政策已经终结，”蒂勒森说。
Tillerson’s statement is the first time the Trump administration publicly hinted its potential options, and made it explicit that solving this through the negotiations or waiting for the destruction of the Korean government is not in it.
蒂勒森的表态是特朗普政府首次公开暗示它正在考虑的选项，并明确表示，协商解决或是等待朝鲜政府覆灭都不在其中。

Originality, the essential continuity of cultural vitality
原创是文化生命力延续的根本
Recently, more than two hundred film screenwriters from all over the country came together at a national forum, offering advice for the development of showbiz industry. At the meeting, burning with emotion, Zou Jingzhi, Wang Xingdong , Lan Xiaolong and other famous film screenwriters said, “The Chinese film and television is not lacking in the international directors, or the super stars, but in the fabulous scripts.”What exposes our extreme lack of culture is a lot of adaption, in conjunction with few originals.
在近日一个全国性编剧论坛上，来自全国各地的200多名影视编剧汇聚一堂，为影视产业发展建言献策。会上，邹静之、王兴东、兰晓龙等知名编剧感慨良多：中国影视不缺国际导演，不缺大牌明星，主要缺的是好剧本。改编翻拍多，自主创少，暴露了我们文化原创的极度匮乏。
There is a saying we often say, the more national, the more worldwide. But during a long time, what many people still lack are self-esteem, self-confidence and pride of the Chinese nation in their hearts, and we are losing with the loss of precious history, philosophy and literature and other splendid traditional culture in our writing. With such cultural creation, it is natural to lose the nationality and originality, which could also take away its artistry and influence. Therefore, it is better to assert our national confidence stick to the national position, carry forward the the spirit of nationality original spirit, and inherit the Chinese traditional culture rather than complain that the foreign countries know little about our culture, to make making the voice of China more far-reaching and sonorous.
有一句话我们一直在说，越是民族的越是世界的。但在很长时间里，许多人心中仍然缺乏中华民族的自尊、自信和自豪感，他们的笔端渐渐流失了历史、哲学、文学等中华优秀传统文化的可贵元素。如此这般的文化创造，自然缺失了民族性和原创性，其艺术性和影响力也会大打折扣。所以，与其常常抱怨外国对我们的文化了解太少，不如坚守民族立场，弘扬原创精神，传承中华优秀传统文化，让“中国声音”传唱得更远、更响亮。
The cultural vitality depends on the creation. The reason why Chinese nation can breed a profound historical culture in the long history is that it still always keeps the originality alive. Hence, not only should we inherit and carry forward the previous heritage, but also we need to be courageous to carry through on new culture creation under the new historical condition, strive to adopt original works of high quality and high level and make full use of the spiritual wealth Chinese nation has created to educate people.
文化的生命力在于创造。中华民族之所以能在漫长的历史长河中孕育出博大精深的历史文化，原因就在于她始终保持着旺盛的文化原创力。因此，我们不仅要继承和弘扬前人的文化遗产，更要勇于在新的历史条件下进行新的文化创造，努力用高质量高水平的原创作品，用中华民族创造的一切精神财富化人育人。

2084：The Future MaybeWill Make People Stop Thinking
《2084》：未来也许会让人类停止思考
The novel told us a story of an empire named Abbys Tanzania, which rules all over the world forever since 2084. The plot of this story goes very slowly. People’s life repeats day by day, all being yes men. This novel, with Gothic melancholy, always makes people feel cold. The life makes them dull, numb, and absolutely compliant finally.
小说讲述了在2084年之后，一个名叫阿比斯坦的帝国在地球上开始了其永恒的统治。小说情节进展十分缓慢。人们的生活似乎就是日复一日地重复，生活的唯唯诺诺。小说有着哥特式的沉郁，经常让人感觉到一股寒意。生活让他们变得迟钝，变得麻木，最后变得绝对地顺从。
What the future will be? In the 2084, Sansal provided us with a fairly cruel answer: the society in the future may make people stop thinking, and finding the way to manage the society. However, they will depend on an invisible power, which is omnipresent.
未来会是什么样的？在《2084》中，桑萨尔给出了一个近乎残酷的答案：未来的社会也许会让人们停止思考，停止寻求治理社会的方法，而是更多地依赖于一种无形的、永远存在的、遍布四地的力量。
《2048》
Nowadays, Sansal is still active, being near 70 years old. He receives 3 to 5 invitations every day. In total, there are 300 days of a year for him to make an open speech, and take part in activities, introducing the history and cause of altruism, calling for a peaceful and diversified sense of worth.
如今，将近七十岁的桑萨尔依然活跃。他每天收到3到5个活动邀请，一年中有将近300天在外地讲座、参加活动，为不同的听众介绍极端主义的历史及其成因，呼吁一种和平的、多元的价值观。
Sansal emphasizes that his writing is very simple, just writing for politics. The world may not need me to speak out the cruel truth, if there are some organizations in the Algeria to defend the peace and democracy. Quite the contrary, no organizations as such exist. Someone is needed to make that voice and here I am. I can just express my thoughts by writing and words.
说到写作，桑萨尔强调，他的写作十分单纯，就是一种政治上的写作。假使在阿尔及利亚存在一些捍卫和平和民主的组织，可能就不需要我发出声音了。既然阿尔及利亚没有这样的组织但又必须有人发出这样的声音，我又是一个人，那我只能写作，只能通过文字来表达。

Japanese government is urging employees to leave the office ahead of Time
日本政府要求上班族提前下班时间
The government of Japan has introduced a policy to make employees to leave office early every Friday afternoon, hoping to crackdown on a culture of workaholics while providing a shot in the arm for the economy.
日本政府出台政策敦促上班族每周五早点下班，希望以此使工作狂文化不再流行，同时给经济增长打下了一针兴奋剂。
The premium Friday campaign, which launched this week, is calling on workers to leave the office at 3pm once a month, and spend time with family, dine out or go shopping, according to Japan Times.
据《日本时报》报道，这周发起的“优质星期五”活动呼吁上班族在每个月中能有一次下午3点就下班，在多出来的空余时间里多陪陪自己的家人，外出下馆子或者去购物。
It is hoped that the initiative will encourage people to spend more money on food, in shops and on travel. All Nippon Airways, the country’s largest airline, is offering special discounts on Friday in a bid to entice people to take trips.
政府希望该活动能够鼓励人们在食品、购物和旅行上有更多花费。日本最大的航空公司全日本航空为了吸引人们外出旅游，在周五会给出售的机票打特殊的折扣。
“We hope this will encourage people to rest and to leave office earlier,”an ANA spokeswoman told Japan Times. “Participation of the government and companies is needed to push forward reforms(in the working culture),”she added.
全日本航空一位女发言人在接受《日本时报》采访时表示：“我们希望这可以鼓励人们早点下班去休息，”她补充说道：“工作文化方面改革的推进需要政府和企业们的支持。”
