去年2月4日凌晨,来自几内亚的22岁移民迪亚洛在纽约布朗克斯区自己的寓所门口被4名值勤的白人警察连击41枪,身中19弹当场惨死。此案当时立即引发了纽约市各界数万人的大游行。随后,当地检察机关以二级谋杀罪、危害公众安全等6项罪名对这4名白人警察提出起诉。今年1月31日,纽约州高等法院开庭审理此案并组成了由4名黑人和8名白人组成的陪审团。在经过3天的商讨后,陪审团在纽约州首府奥尔巴尼宣布,指控4名白人警察的6项罪名均不成立。 判决宣布后,纽约市接连爆发了有数千名各阶层民众参加的各种示威活动,抗议白人警察对少数族裔移民滥用暴力和种族歧视倾向,由这一裁决引发的纽约各种族之间的紧张关系也有愈演愈烈之势。 本文从内容到表达,有许多值得读者回味之处。比如: 1/The racially mixed crowd of mostly young people chanted.“No Justice,NoPeace.”(句中的短语racially mixed crowd告知读者:游行示威队伍中不乏白人青年。) 2/Angry but nonviolent(非暴力的)demonstrations in Albany and in theSoundview section of the Bronx(布朗克斯,纽约市最北端的一区)where Diallolived and was killed began even as the verdicts were being read in court and broad—cast live on television and rad In the early hours of February 4th last year, Dialo, a 22-year-old immigrant from Guinea, was shot with 41 guns by four white police on the doorstep of his home in the Bronx district of New York. He was killed on the spot by 19 bullets. The case immediately sparked a parade of tens of thousands of people from all walks of life in New York City. Subsequently, the local prosecution institute sued these four white police officers on six counts of second-degree murder and endangering public safety. On January 31 this year, the New York State Superior Court heard the case and formed a jury consisting of 4 blacks and 8 whites. After three days of discussions, the jury announced in Albany, the capital of New York, that the six charges against four white police officers were not established. After the verdict was announced, a series of thousands of people from all walks of life broke out in New York City to protest against the abuse of violence and racial discrimination by white police officers against immigrants of ethnic minorities. Tensions have also intensified. This article from the content to the expression, there are many worth reviewing the reader. For example: 1/The racially mixed crowd of mostly young people chanted. “No Justice, NoPeace.” (The phrase racially mixed crowd in the sentence tells readers that there is no shortage of white youth in the procession.) 2/Angry but nonviolent (nonviolence) )demonstrations in Albany and in the Soundview section of the Bronx (Bronx, New York City’s northernmost district)where Diallolived and was started began even as the verdicts were being read in court and broad-cast live on television and rad
