2.CHINA'S MANUFACTURING EXPANSION CONTINUES IN MARCH

3月中国制造业PMI延续扩张走势，经济发展持续企稳回升

China's manufacturing sector continued to see evidence of expansion in March, in terms of production activity and market demand.

从生产活动和市场需求来看，3月份中国制造业延续扩张走势。

The National Bureau of Statistics announced today that the purchasing managers' index for the manufacturing sector came in at 51.9 in March. A reading above 50 indicates expansion, while a reading below reflects contraction. Though it's slightly down from February's reading of 52.6, the NBS reported that it's the second highest reading over the past two years, which indicates that China's economic development is steadily rebounding. Today's data also showed that March's non-manufacturing PMI picked up at an accelerated pace, coming at 58.2 compared to 56.3 recorded in the previous month, the fastest expansion in nearly 12 years.

国家统计局今天（03/31）发布的数据显示，3月制造业采购经理指数（PMI）为51.9%，该指数高于50表明扩张，低于50表明收缩。虽然相比2月份的52.6%略有下降，但国家统计局报告称，这是过去两年来第二高指数，表明中国经济发展正在稳步回升。此外，3月份我国非制造业商务活动指数加速扩张，从上月的56.3%升至58.2%，是近12年来的最快增速。

3.U.S. IN UNCHARTED WATERS AFTER TRUMP'S HISTORIC INDICTMENT

特朗普被起诉，美国政治走向“未知水域”

Former U.S. President Donald Trump was reportedly indicted by a New York grand jury on Thursday, for his role in an alleged【被指控的】 hush-money payment to an adult film actress. Trump, 76, is said to be the first former U.S. president in American history to be indicted on criminal charges. Stephen Rancourt hasmore.

星期四（03/30），美国纽约州一个大陪审团决定以刑事罪名起诉前总统特朗普，原因是他涉嫌向一名成人电影女演员支付“封口费”。据悉，现年76岁的特朗普是美国历史上首位被刑事起诉的前总统。记者Stephen Rancourt带来详细报道。

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and his aides have been investigating Trump's alleged role in a hush-money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

这些指控缘起曼哈顿地区检察官阿尔文·布拉格办公室针对特朗普的一项调查，即2016年大选期间，特朗普与成人电影女演员斯托米·丹尼尔斯有染并支付其封口费一事。

The payment of 130,000 U.S. dollars was said to be used to prevent Daniels from going public about an alleged sexual encounter that she had with Trump in 2006.

据悉，这13万美元是为了阻止丹尼尔斯公开2006年与特朗普发生的性行为。

Multiple news outlets, including The New York Times, ABC News, and The Washington Post, broke the news of the indictment【起诉】 on Thursday, quoting people familiar with the situation.

包括《纽约时报》、美国广播公司和《华盛顿邮报》在内的多家新闻媒体周四（03/30）援引知情人士的话，报道了起诉的消息。

“The indictment of former President Donald J. Trump is without precedent. That's the kind of thing you do when there is an attack on Pearl Harbor.”

“对前总统特朗普的起诉是史无前例的，这和珍珠港遭袭具有一样的新闻价值。”

In a statement, Trump said the indictment is political persecution and election interference at the highest level in history.

特朗普当天针对起诉书发表声明称，这是历史上最高级别的政治迫害和选举干预。

Republicans are rallying behind Trump, echoing his accusations that the justice system has been weaponized by the Democratic Party for political purposes.

与此同时，共和党人力挺特朗普，纷纷发声附和他的指责，表示民主党对特朗普的起诉是出于政治目的将司法系统“武器化”。

Democratic lawmakers and party officials have also weighed in, and have cast the indictment against Trump as an accountability move.

民主党人普遍强调起诉特朗普是正确的问责。

Opinions on the indictment differ among the American public.

对于此事，美国民众的看法也并不一致。

“It's a political witch hunt.”

“Donald Trump. I think it's the best thing that can happen in the world. Once he's gone, the world's safe.”

“（起诉）特朗普，我认为这是世界上最好的事情。没有他的话，世界就安全了。”

According to the latest poll conducted by Quinnipiac University, a majority of respondents believe that Trump should be disqualified from running for president again, should he be criminally charged in any of the multiple federal and state investigations he is currently facing.

根据美国昆尼皮亚克大学的一项最新民意调查，多数受访者认为，如果特朗普在目前面临的多项联邦和地方调查中受到刑事指控，他应该被取消再次竞选总统的资格。
