今天我們要學的詞是 resolute.

resolute 的意思是下定決心，堅決的。Former U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis warned that the United States “must be resolute and unambiguous” in its approach to countries whose strategic interests are increasingly in tension with the U.S.. 美國前國防部長吉姆·馬蒂斯警告說，美國在對待那些與美國的戰(zhàn)略利益沖突日益緊張的國家時“必須堅定而毫不含糊”。

The U.S government is partially closed with no end in sight as President Donald Trump resolutely demands funding for border wall construction while Democratic lawmakers continue to rule it out. 由于美國總統(tǒng)特朗普堅決要求為邊界墻建設提供資金，而民主黨議員們繼續(xù)無視這一要求，美國政府部分關(guān)閉的情況仍無望結(jié)束。
