 大意
Bush says US will reduce the greenhouse emission.


 听写
President Bush says the United States is already on a path to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases by 2012. He says it is time to set an even more ambitious target. “We have shown that we can slow emissions growth. Today I’m announcing a new national goal, to stop the growth of US greenhouse gas emissions by 2025.” He says the goal can be met through a mix of incentives and development of new cleaner energy technology. He says power plants must lead the way. In a speech from the White House, the President did not offer a detailed formula to cut dangerous emissions which scientists say trapct heat from the sun leading to gradually rising temperatures on Earth. He saidys the a specific plan of action to meet the new targets will need to be worked out in consultations with the US Congress and private industry. Negotiations with the US lawmakers are likely to be tough. Congress is leaning to ordertoward mandatory caps on greenhouse gas emissions, and approach the President rejects. White House officials defendse the decision to revise the administration’s climate change policy with only 8 months to go in Mr. Bush’s term.

布什说美国已经着手在2012年前减少温室气体排放量。他说现在应该设立更大的目标。“我们已经可以减慢排放量的增长了。今天我要公布2025年前阻止美国温室气体排放的新国家目标。”他说这个目标可以通过激励和发展新的更清洁的能源技术来实现。他说电力站应该走在前面。布什在白宫的演讲中没有提到减少危险排放的具体措施,科学家说这些气体从太阳中吸收热量从而导致了地球温度渐渐提高。他说实现新目标的特别行动计划需要咨询国会和私人企业来确定。与国会的谈判可能很艰难。国会倾向于设立温室气体排放上限,而总统不同意这一举措。白宫官员坚持在布什任期的最后8个月中重新考虑当局的气候变化政策。


 总结
还是冠词和时态啊……每次都错这种恶心的地方……
