CARL AZUZ, HOST: Fridays are awesome. We`re wrapping up the last week of February here on CNN STUDENT NEWS and we won`t see you again until next month.
周五真是太棒了。这是二月份最后一个星期了，这里是CNN学生新闻，我们下个月再见。
I`m Carl Azuz.
我是Carl Azuz。
First up today is the deadline for Congress and the president to agree on funding for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. This includes roughly 200,000 people -- Border Patrol and Customs officers, Secret Service agents, TSA screeners at airports, plus their managers and administrators.
首先今天的首要新闻是关于国会与总统之间就美国国土安全部拨款问题，已经到了最后截止日期，此次拨款范围大概波及20万人口，包括边境巡逻员，海关，特工，TSA机场安检人员，再加上经理和管理人员。
Without funding, many of these people wouldn`t get paid, at least not until the funding is restored. But they`ll still be required to work for the safety of the country. So most Americans wouldn`t immediately notice the effects of the shutdown.
如果拨款失败，这些人中大多数人都不会得到工资支付，至少在资金恢复正常之前不会。但是他们仍将需要为保卫国家安全继续工作。所以大多数美国人不会马上关注国土安全部分部门的影响。
