Death toll rises in Lagos building collapse
拉各斯建筑倒塌 死亡人數上升
In Nigeria's port city of Lagos, anxious relatives wait for news about their loved ones. As many as 50 people are still trapped under the rubble of a four story building that collapsed while under construction on Monday. Authorities say the number of dead has risen to at least five. Families mill about the debris as rescue workers pull out more bodies. One of the survivors, a construction worker, says he was inside the building when it started to come down.
在尼日利亞港口城市拉各斯，焦慮的親屬們正在等待親人的消息。周一，一棟正在建設中的四層樓房倒塌，目前仍有50人被困在廢墟中。當局表示，死亡人數已經上升到至少5人。隨著救援人員不斷從廢墟中拖出新的尸體，家人們在廢墟前徘徊。其中一名幸存者，一位建筑工人表示，建筑開始倒塌時他就在里面。
(SOUNDBITE) (English) ABABIO SAMSON, CONSTRUCTION WORKER, SAYING: "I was up there at the last decking when the building just collapsed so from there, the building just took us to the ground; they used rope to carry us out."
建筑工人ABABIO SAMSON：“我當時就在最后一層的露天平臺上，建筑突然開始倒塌，我們直接被拋到地面上。他們用繩子把我們救出來?！?/span>
This is prestigious Victoria Island, on a lagoon set back from the Atlantic, home to some of Africa's most expensive real estate. Building disasters are common in Nigeria. Regulations aren't always enforced, and that often leads to structures erected quickly and - sometimes - unsafe.
這里是享有聲望的維多利亞島，位于大西洋形成的一個咸水湖，非洲許多最昂貴的住宅就位于這里。建筑事故在尼日利亞非常常見。監管措施通常沒有執行，導致建筑速度非?？欤袝r也會非常不安全。
Protesters wearing masks descend on Washington, D.C
華盛頓特區百萬面具大游行
Hundreds of protesters with their faces covered marched through the streets of Washington D.C. for the Million Mask March. As they headed for the White House, demonstrators had a message for the President. The march in Washington, D.C. is part of a global movement being held in cities around the world. Protesters associated with such groups as the Occupy and Anonymous movements are demanding an end to social injustice and government and corporate greed. The rally coincides with Guy Fawkes Day, a celebration to mark the unsuccessful attempt to blow up the British Parliament in 1605.
數百名抗議者戴著面具穿越華盛頓特區街道，參加百萬面具大游行。在向白宮行進的過程中，示威者們向總統傳遞了一條消息。華盛頓特區的游行是全世界各大城市舉行的一項全球運動的一部分。抗議者們與占領運動和匿名運動等團體聯合起來，要求結束社會不公，政府和團體貪婪。該集會活動與英國的煙火節遙相呼應。煙火節是為了紀念1605年炸毀英國議會的活動失敗。
