China Pledges to Cut 300,000 Troops From Its Massive Army
中國(guó)宣布龐大軍隊(duì)裁減員額30萬(wàn)

China's leader presided over a parade of tanks, missiles and troops that displayed growing military might Thursday as fighter jets roared overhead, but pledged a 300,000 reduction in troops in a bid to show his country poses no expansionist threat.
中國(guó)3日舉行閱兵式，戰(zhàn)斗機(jī)在空中翱翔呼嘯，參閱的坦克、導(dǎo)彈和軍隊(duì)展示出日益增強(qiáng)的軍事力量。中國(guó)國(guó)家主席習(xí)近平主持了閱兵儀式，并宣布中國(guó)將裁減軍隊(duì)員額30萬(wàn)，以此表示中國(guó)并無(wú)擴(kuò)張野心。

The massive parade through the heart of Beijing commemorated Japan's World War defeat seven decades ago, with helicopters zooming across the sky in an array forming the number 70, but the event also underlined President Xi Jinping's determination to make China the pre-eminent Asian power.
這場(chǎng)在北京中心舉行的盛大的閱兵是為了紀(jì)念日本二戰(zhàn)戰(zhàn)敗70周年，直升機(jī)編隊(duì)在空中組成數(shù)字70字樣。不過(guò)這次閱兵也突出顯示了習(xí)近平令中國(guó)成為亞洲強(qiáng)國(guó)的決心。

Language tips：

Preside over an event表示“主持某項(xiàng)活動(dòng)”，看著preside眼熟？沒(méi)錯(cuò)，president一詞就來(lái)源于這個(gè)詞。

Pose除了有我們都知道的“擺姿勢(shì)”的意思，還可以表達(dá)“造成(問(wèn)題或危險(xiǎn))”，pose no threat自然就是“不構(gòu)成任何威脅”的意思。比如：A strong, prosperous and developed China will pose no threat to any countries（中國(guó)的富強(qiáng)和發(fā)展不會(huì)對(duì)任何國(guó)家構(gòu)成威脅）。

總結(jié)：

看完上述摘錄以后，大家學(xué)會(huì)“裁軍”怎么表達(dá)了嗎？我們最后再來(lái)回顧一下：

BBC：the People's Liberation Army would be reduced by 300,000 personnel

The Telegraph: China's military would be reduced by 300,000 troops

Reuters: China would cut its troop levels by 300,000

CNN：China pledged to cut 300,000 troops from its 2.3-million strong military

The Guardian：Chinese president Xi Jinping made an unexpected pledge on Thursday to cut his army by 300,000 troop

AP：China's leader pledged a 300,000 reduction in troops

怎么樣？這樣看外媒報(bào)道，是不是更容易些了？
