1:Within weeks, the focus was on the BM.2:The Topkapi Museum had agreed to an important loan for an exhibition about the Haj that the BM was planning for January 2012.3:The 35 pieces under discussion had been removed from Mecca by the Ottoman authorities in the 19th century.4:At the last moment, Mr Suslu and Mr Gunay refused to allow the loan to go ahead on the grounds that the BM had a stone tablet dating from the first century BC, known as the Samsat Stele, that originally came from Turkey.5:The stele had been in the BM’s collection for almost 90 years (and had been exhibited, without complaint, at a Tokyo exhibition in 2005 alongside loans from the Topkapi).

1:几周之后，焦点对准大英博物馆。2:托普卡匹博物馆先前同意向2012年1月大英博物馆的哈吉展览借出一件重要文物。3:这次讨论的35件文物是19世纪被奥斯曼帝国当局从麦加搬走的。4:最后一刻叙斯吕和居纳伊拒绝以后出借文物，因为大英博物馆收藏的一个公元前1世纪的石桌，就是萨姆萨特石碑原来出自土耳其。5:大英博物馆收藏这方石碑将近90年（已经被展出过，没有人提出质疑，2005年东京的展览活动中它就被放在土耳其出借文物的旁边）。

1: Second, federal law has been moving away from mens rea (“guilty mind”), a common-law tradition that suggests that a person who had no idea he was breaking a law should not be accused of doing so. 2: With bloated federal legislation and without mens rea you can accuse most people of something or other, says Mr Silverglate. 3: The question should be, he says, whether charges are reasonable when they run “counter to all human instinct and experience”.

1:其次，联邦法律已逐渐抛弃了“犯罪意图”（“犯罪心理”）这一概念。“犯罪意图”是习惯法的一种传统，意思是一个没有意识到自己犯了罪的人不应被起诉。2:Silverglate说，在名目繁多的联邦法律之下，没有“犯罪意图”这一概念，大部分人都可能因为这样或者那样的罪名遭到起诉。3:他说，问题应该在于：当指控与“人类所有的常识及经验背道而驰”时，它们仍是合理的吗？

1: In the House, however, tea-party members revolted. 2: Some said that setting tax policy for just two months was silly, others claimed that stimulus does not work anyway, and yet others warned of (non-existent) threats to pensions, which are funded by the payroll tax. 3: Democrats wasted no time in claiming that the Republicans were holding 160m workers hostage to extremists. 4: Under intense pressure from fellow Republicans in the Senate and in the presidential campaign, Mr Boehner finally relented. 5: The measure passed on December 23rd without so much as a roll-call vote.

1:然而，众议院的茶党成员却不干了。2:有些人称为期两个月的税收政策是愚钝之举。还有些人称此举对经济复苏毫无意义。更有甚者，提出警告。由于养老金出自工资税，而消减工资税便将威胁到养老金（此说法纯属无中生有）。3:民主党人就地反击，声称共和党人要把全美一亿六千万在职员工劫持为人质，把他们推向极端。4:迫于参议院及总统竞选阵营中共和党同僚所施加的巨大压力，博纳先生终于扛不住了。5:去年12月23日，延长工资税消减法案得以通过，连一次唱名表决都没有。

Without new loans, the city will run out of cash in mid-May. The state is pushing it hard to sort out its structural deficit. Late last year it began a financial review of Detroit which was the legal prelude to bringing in an unelected emergency manager, as Michigan has done in several other distressed cities.

没有新的贷款注入，在五月中旬底特律就会掏空口袋里的最后一枚铜板。严峻的现状迫使底特律急需找到解决结构性赤字的办法。去年末，一项对底特律财政状况的调查就已开展。此举也为指派危机总长从合法性上打下了伏笔。密西根州政府在其他危机重重城市也曾指派过危机总长。

SINCE the 2010 mid-term elections, “tea party” Republicans have enjoyed influence out of proportion to their numbers. They forced Barack Obama and congressional Democrats to accept spending cuts without any tax increases to keep the government from shutting down in April, 2011, and from defaulting on its bills in August.

自2010年中期选举以来， “茶党”共和党人享有了与其人数不相符的强大影响力。在他们的坚持下，总统奥巴马和民主党国会议员被迫在去年四月和八月间，在不增加任何税收的前提下消减开支，以免联邦政府停摆，避免债务毁约。
