>Oscars 2021 ceremony postponed
2021奧斯卡頒獎禮延期
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced Monday that the 93rd Oscars ceremony, scheduled to be held on Feb 28 in 2021, will move to April 25 "as a result of the global pandemic caused by COVID-19."
美國電影藝術與科學學院6月15日宣布，因新冠肺炎全球大流行，原定於明年2月28日舉行的第93屆奧斯卡頒獎典禮將推遲到4月25日舉行。
The coronavirus epidemic shut down movie theaters worldwide in mid-March and brought production of films to a halt.
3月中旬，新冠疫情導致全球影院關閉，電影製作也陷入了停滯。
The Academy also extended the deadline by which movies must be released in order to be eligible for an Oscar nomination, from Dec 31, 2020, to Feb 28, 2021.
美國電影藝術與科學學院還將要獲得奧斯卡提名的電影上映最後期限從2020年12月31日延長到2021年2月28日。
It was only the fourth time in the 93-year history of the Academy Awards that the date has been changed; in 1938, due to floods in Los Angeles, in 1968 because of the assassination of civil rights leader Dr Martin Luther King Jr, and in 1981 after the attempted assassination of then-President Ronald Reagan.
在奧斯卡頒獎典禮93年歷史中，僅有過四次改期的情況。此前三次分別是：1938年因洛杉磯洪水，1968年因民權運動領袖馬丁•路德•金遇刺事件，1981年因有人刺殺時任總統羅納德•裡根未遂事件。
The new date for the Oscars is expected to prompt the Golden Globes and other awards shows to also reschedule their events.
奧斯卡獎延期後，預計金球獎等其他頒獎典禮也會改期進行。

>Order addressing police reform
川普將籤警務改革令
US President Donald Trump said on Monday that he will sign an executive order on police reform on Tuesday.
美國總統川普6月15日表示，他將於6月16日籤署一項有關警務改革的行政命令。
The move comes amid growing calls for action following the death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old African American man, in police custody in Minneapolis, Minn., last month, which has triggered nationwide demonstrations against police brutality and racism.
上月46歲的非洲裔美國人喬治•弗洛伊德在明尼蘇達州明尼阿波裡斯市被警察拘禁致死，引發全國性的反對警察暴行和種族主義的示威遊行活動，民眾呼籲政府採取行動改革警務體系。
The multi-pronged directive is aimed at creating funding incentives for police departments to improve their practices, senior administration officials said.
政府高級官員表示，這項多管齊下的政令旨在為警務部門提供資金激勵，改善他們在執法過程中的行為。
The order will focus on improving officer retention and recruitment practices, including encouraging departments to recruit from within the communities they will patrol.
該政令將重點改善警察的留任和招募方式，包括鼓勵警務部門從所服務社區招募警員。
It will also prioritize "co-respondent services" intended to more deeply involve social workers in responding to certain nonviolent calls - such as those involving mental health, drug addiction and homelessness issues - rather than cops alone.
"共同應答服務"也是改革重點，該服務旨在讓社會工作者更深入參與響應某些非暴力的報警電話，例如涉及心理健康、吸毒成癮和無家可歸者問題的電話，而不再是僅僅由警察來響應。
