Part A :

Now let's just have a look at the Antarctic Treaty，

现在让我们看看南极条约。

How far back does the idea of an international treaty go?

“国际条约”有多久远?

Well, as far back as the 19th century, when eleven nations organised an international event.

好的，早在第十九世纪，当十一个国家组织了一项国际活动。

When was that exactly?

什么时候?

In 1870.

在1870年。

And it was called the Polar Research Meeting.

它被称为极地研究会议。

And then, not long after that, they organised something called the First International Polar Year.

然后，不久之后，他们组织了一个叫做第一国际极地年的事件。

And that took place when exactly?

这是什么时候发生的?

Over two years from 1882 to 1883.

从1882到1883，两年以上。

But it wasn't until the 1950s that the idea of an international treaty was proposed.

但直到20世纪50年代，一项国际条约的概念才被提出。

And in 1959 the Treaty was actually signed.

实际上，1959年在条约上签的字。

What do you see as the main achievements of the treaty?

你认为该条约的主要成果是什么?

Well, firstly it means that the continent is reserved for peaceful use.

首先，这意味着该大陆是为和平使用。

That's Article One, isn't it?

这是1号文件，不是吗?

Yes...

是的…

That's important since the territory belongs to everyone.

这很重要，因为该地区属于每个人。

Yes but not as important as Article Five, which prohibits any nuclear explosions or waste disposal.

是的，但不像5号那么重要，禁止用作任何核爆炸或废物处置。

Which is marvellous. Well, I'm afraid we're going to have to stop there because I’m afraid we've run out of time.

这是非常棒的。嗯，我们今天的采访不得不到此为止了。

Thanks for coming along today and telling us all about the centre and its work.

非常感谢你告诉我们所有关于中心及其工作的内容。
