【士兵突击行动--三多385号】
A newly yearly meeting of all the member countries in the World Health Organization is this week in Geneva Swissland. Delegates from the one hundred ninety-three countries discuss process progress and set policy for the coming year. The W.H.O, a United Nations angency is sixty years old this year.
世界卫生组织成员国年度会议本周于瑞士日内瓦召开。193个成员国代表汇报发展现状并一起决定明年的任务策略。WHO是联合国的一个分支机构，今年是其成立60周年。
But Director-General Margaret Chan as she opened the World Health Assembly noted that the delegates are meeting at a time of tragedy. She express sympathy to the millions of people affected by the recent cyclone in Burma, also know as Myanmar and the earthquake in China.
不过，正如Margaret理事长在世界卫生会议开幕时所提到的，代表们在一个悲剧时刻参加会议。她强调了对在缅甸飓风和中国地震中遇难的百万人民的同情与慰问。
Doctor Chan said three crisises crises lie ahead that are international security threats and will all affect human health. One is food security, another is climate change, and the third is the threat of a worldwide outbreak of influenza.
Chan博士称现在正面临三个国际性的安全危机，它们会对人类的健康造成伤害。一是食品安全，另一个是气候变化，第三个威胁来自世界范围内爆发的流感。
She said "the world produces enough food to feed everyone". "In fact", she added, "far too many people are overfed. Yet now, food prices have risen sharply". She noted that the crisis hits the poor the hardest and that the more a family spends on food, the less it has for health care.
她说全世界生产的食品足够喂饱每一个人。事实是，她补充到，有太多的人都得到了过量的供给。然而现在食物的价格急剧上升。她提到这对穷人的打击最大，而且家庭用于食物的开销越来越高，用于健康治疗的越来越少。
