英譯中：請將下列各段英文譯為中文（40 分） 1. President Chen Shui-bian said yesterday (May 7, 2002) a severe drought, which had forced one island to buy water from mainland China and caused panic, would not have a lasting impact on Taiwan’s economy. But he urged government agencies to stop pointing fingers at each other. “A venomous war of words will not help us fight against the drought,” Chen said in an interview. 2. Representatives from kindergartens around the island asked the government Monday (May 6, 2002) to loosen the restrictions on hiring foreign teachers in line with Premier Yu Shyi-Kun’s recent advocacy of English as a second language in Taiwan. Kindergarten managers said during a hearing held at the Legislative Yuan that the problem with getting youngsters started learning the language is a shortage of properly trained teachers. 3. Nationalists, anarchists, pacifists and environmentalists joined May Day, upstaging traditional parades celebrating the rights of workers all the world over. Over one million marchers turned May Day in France into a mammoth protest against Jean-Marie Le Pen as the far-right leader fired up his supporters with a fierce attack on election rival President Jacques Chirac. But opinions polls have forecast Chirac will win a second term by a landslide on Sunday (May 4, 2002). 4. Minister of National Defense Tang Yiao-min said yesterday (May 2, 2002) that his office had scrapped a rule which barred gay conscripts from serving as military policeman. The military police command has been harshly criticized recently, as it had excluded gay conscripts from serving as guards at the Presidential Office and other key government buildings. Tang announced the abandonment of the rule, which apparently constituted discrimination against gays.
