Brexit: What next for UK??英國(guó)啟動(dòng)“脫歐”程序
New British coin 'most secure in the world'?英國(guó)皇家造幣廠稱(chēng)新1英鎊硬幣“世界上最安全”
文字稿
Once Article 50 has been triggered the UK has just two years to negotiate its exit from the EU. No country has ever tried this before. It’s a very complicated process: first the European Council, which is made up of the EU’s 27 leaders, agrees guidelines for the negotiations. Then the European Commission then negotiates with the UK on behalf of the EU. Together they will need to unpick 43 years of treaties and agreements.
《里斯本條約》第50條一旦被啟動(dòng)，英國(guó)則僅有兩年時(shí)間來(lái)完成有關(guān)退出歐盟的談判。這是任何歐盟成員國(guó)都未曾嘗試過(guò)的步驟?！懊摎W”程序非常復(fù)雜——首先，由27名歐盟首腦組成的歐洲理事會(huì)需認(rèn)可談判的指導(dǎo)方針；然后再由歐盟委員會(huì)代表歐盟與英國(guó)商討相關(guān)事宜，雙方將共同深入剖析英國(guó)加入歐盟43年以來(lái)所簽署和達(dá)成的各項(xiàng)條約與協(xié)議。
Here is the new pound coin, and it does have some special security features, apart from being twelve-sided and two-coloured, it's got very small writing on it, and it has a sort of hologram with the pound sign at the bottom, and a special feature inside which means that coin machines can recognise whether it's genuine or not – and that's important, because there are so many fakes of the old pound coin.
這枚新版1英鎊硬幣加入了一些特殊的安全特性。除采用雙色十二邊形的設(shè)計(jì)之外，新硬幣表面刻有極小的文字，其底部印有類(lèi)似全息圖的英鎊符號(hào)，硬幣內(nèi)還設(shè)置了特殊的安全技術(shù)，這意味著市面上的投幣式販賣(mài)機(jī)將能夠識(shí)別其真?zhèn)?，確保這一點(diǎn)十分重要，因?yàn)榕f版1英鎊的偽幣實(shí)在太多了。
