The first newspoll of the year shows Scott Morrison's rating as better prime minister has tumbled nine points, while the coalition1 has fallen behind Labor2 on the two-party preferred measure for the first time since the election. The poll comes as Mr Morrison has conceeded he could have responded better to the bushfire crisis — and as he left open the option of deeper cuts to Australia's carbon emissions3. The apparent shift came as authorities in New South Wales announced they'd finally been able to contain the huge Gospers Mountain fire north of Sydney. The megablaze has been burning for three months.

今年的首个新闻民调显示,澳大利亚总理斯科特·莫里森的支持率暴跌9个百分点,而在两党二选一投票中,联盟党的支持率自大选以来首次落后于工党。民调进行时,莫里森承认他本可以更好地应对山火危机,同时他未排除进一步削减碳排放的可能性。这一明显的转变发生时,新南威尔士州政府宣布他们最终能控制悉尼以北的戈斯珀斯山巨大山火。这起特大山火已持续燃烧了三个月之久。

Australian comedian4 Celeste Carber who has raised more than 50 million dollars for bushfire relief is now set to host a concert. The "Fire Fight" music event will be held in Sydney next month. The all star line up so far includes Queen, Adam Lambert, Alice Cooper and Olivia Newton John. Tickets go on sale today. The funds raised will be split between the Red Cross, rural and regional fire services and the RSPCA's bushfire appeal.

澳大利亚喜剧演员西莱斯特·卡珀已为山火救援筹集了5000余万美元资金,现在她计划举行一场音乐会。“对抗火灾”音乐会将于下个月在悉尼举行。目前公布的全明星阵容包括皇后乐队、亚当·兰伯特、艾利斯·库柏和奥莉维亚·纽顿-约翰。音乐会门票将于今天开售。筹集的资金将平分给红十字会、乡村和地区消防局以及澳大利亚皇家防止虐待动物协会的山火申诉行动。

A second day of angry protests have erupted in Iran, after the country's military shot down a civilian5 airliner6. 176 people were killed in the downing of the Ukrainian plane, the majority of them Iranians. Authorities in Tehran say they mistook the airliner for an American missile. US president Donald Trump7 has called on Iranian authorities to exercise restraint ahead of an expected crackdown on demonstrations8.

伊朗的愤怒抗议活动进入第二天,此前伊朗军方击落了一架民航客机。遭击落乌克兰客机上的176人全部遇难,其中大多数是伊朗人。伊朗有关部门表示,他们误将这架客机当作美国导弹。美国总统唐纳德·特朗普呼吁伊朗有关部门在镇压示威行动前保持克制。
