On Thursday, a federal judge ordered the Kennedy Center to provide 30 days' notice before undertaking any major physical alterations, including the demolition of the building as threatened by President Donald Trump.

周四,一名联邦法官责令肯尼迪中心,在进行任何重大物理改造之前,须提前30天发出通知,其中包括按唐纳德·特朗普总统所威胁的那样拆除该建筑。

US District Judge Christopher Cooper said that, in light of recent eventsincluding the building's abrupt closure to the public on Wednesdayhis ruling would "avoid any confusion in this regard."

美国地区法官克里斯托弗·库珀表示,考虑到近期发生的事件——包括周三该建筑突然对公众关闭——他的裁决将“避免在这方面产生任何混淆”。

Matt Floca, the Kennedy Center's executive director and chief operating officer, said he temporarily closed the iconic performing arts center because the aging building's "ongoing structural deterioration poses a serious risk to public safety."

肯尼迪中心执行主任首席运营官马特·弗洛卡表示由于这座老化建筑持续的结构恶化对公共安全造成严重风险”,他暂时关闭了这座标志性表演艺术中心

Floca stated that the building will remain closed for at least seven days in order to "assess the existing safety risks in those parts of the main building that have suffered severe structural deterioration."

弗洛卡该建筑至少关闭七天评估主楼那些出现严重结构恶化的部分现有的安全风险”。

Floca and other officials stated that this temporary closure, which was not announced in advance, is a separate matter from the Kennedy Center board's vote on Tuesday to close the performing arts center indefinitely for repairs.

弗洛卡和其他官员表示此次临时关闭未事先通知肯尼迪中心董事会周二投票决定无限期关闭该表演艺术中心以进行维修是两回事

Floca said the closure was based on an inspection of the roof terrace canopy as well as a partial ceiling collapse earlier this month.

弗洛卡关闭是基于对屋顶露台顶棚的检查以及本月早些时候部分天花板坍塌

He added that the closure could be extended following an assessment next week.

补充说下周评估后可能会延长关闭时间

Trump, who was appointed chairman of the Kennedy Center last year by loyalists on its board, said on Wednesday that his efforts to restore the aging building deserved recognition, "because frankly, if we didn't do it, it would close.

特朗普去年被董事会中的效忠者任命为肯尼迪中心主席他周三表示自己修复这座老化建筑的努力值得认可,“因为坦率地说如果我们不这样做它就会关闭

It would ultimately be torn down.

最终会被拆掉。

Its condition is very, very badvery dangerous."

它的状况非常非常糟糕非常危险。”

The closure announcement came in response to a court case involving a Democratic congresswoman who, in her capacity as a trustee, sought an emergency court hearing to prevent what she described as the building's "unlawful closure."

关闭公告是对一名民主党女议员所涉法庭案件的回应,她作为受托人,寻求紧急法庭听证,以阻止她所称的建筑“非法关闭”。

As an ex officio member of the Kennedy Center's board of trustees, Joyce Beatty, a Democratic congresswoman from Ohio, spearheaded efforts to prevent Trump's name from being added to the building.

俄亥俄州民主党众议员乔伊斯·比蒂作为肯尼迪中心董事会当然成员领导了阻止特朗普的名字添加到该建筑上的努力

On Tuesday, Beatty became embroiled in a verbal clash with the Republican president during a virtual board meeting.

周二比蒂在一次虚拟董事会会议上与这位共和党总统发生了言语冲突

In a court filing on Thursday, Beatty's lawyers stated that the board members' "justification for claiming they were only temporarily closing the Kennedy Center was clearly a pretext to justify shutting it down once and for all.

比蒂的律师在周四的法庭文件中表示董事会成员声称他们只是暂时关闭肯尼迪中心的理由显然为了一劳永逸地关闭该中心而辩护的借口。

The facts before the court are deeply troubling."

法庭所面对的事实令人深感担忧。”

Cooper denied the request from Beattie's legal team for a hearing to clarify the board's actions and intentions.

库珀拒绝了比蒂法律团队要求举行听证以澄清董事会行动和意图的请求。

However, he granted their request to "make it explicit" that his order prohibited the demolition of the building without 30 days' advance notice.

但他同意了他们的请求,“明确表明他的命令禁止在没有提前30天通知的情况下拆除该建筑

A board chaired by the president and aligned with Trump voted to shut down the center, after Cooper had blocked the institution from restoring Trump's name to the building.

由总统担任主席、与特朗普结盟的董事会投票决定关闭该中心,此前库珀阻止了该机构将特朗普的名字重新恢复至该建筑上。

Congress has already allocated 257 million dollars to cover the repair costs, but Trump has stated that the repairs will proceed only if the board is permitted to move forward with its plan to add his name to the building.

国会已拨款2.57亿美元用于支付维修费用特朗普表示唯有允许董事会推进将其名字添加到该建筑上的计划,维修才会进行

On Thursday, Barbra Streisand, a 2008 Kennedy Center Honoree, questioned the center's closure for repairs and described the controversy surrounding its operations as "infuriating and painful to witness."

周四,2008年肯尼迪中心荣誉奖得主芭芭拉·史翠珊质疑该中心因维修而关闭,并称围绕其运营的争议“令人愤怒且痛苦地目睹”。

Referring to Trump's attempt to have his name added to the Center, she said in a statement to reporters: "You can easily imagine how indignant I am to see this respected institution reduced to the object of a fierce contest waged over one man's name and unbridled ego."

谈到特朗普试图将自己的名字加入该中心,她在给记者的声明中说:“你可以轻易想象,看到这个受人尊敬的机构沦为围绕一个人的名字和不受约束的自我而展开的激烈争夺的对象,我有多么愤慨。”

In August, the Kennedy Center's board of trustees voted to have Trump's name engraved on the center's exterior wall, with the inscription reading, "The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, restored and renovated by President Donald J. Trump."

肯尼迪中心董事会于8月通过投票决定将特朗普的名字刻于肯尼迪中心外墙之上使其内容为约翰·F·肯尼迪表演艺术中心由唐纳德·J·特朗普总统修复和翻新”。

Should the Trump Kennedy Center Fund reach $100 million, another inscription would be added: "Donated by the Trump Kennedy Center Fund."

倘若特朗普肯尼迪中心基金达到1亿美元则还将增添另一段铭文:“由特朗普肯尼迪中心基金捐赠”。

The plaza in front of the Kennedy Center had also been planned to be renamed after Trump.

肯尼迪中心前方的广场也曾被计划以特朗普的名字重新命名。

On Tuesday, Cooper rejected all of the above proposals and ruled that no action may be taken "without congressional approval."

库珀于周二驳回了所有上述提议,并裁定:在“未经国会批准”的情况下,不得采取任何行动。

In May, Cooper ruled that the Kennedy Center's naming of the building after Trump was unlawful and ordered its removal.

库珀在5月裁定肯尼迪中心将该建筑冠以特朗普之名属于非法行为并下令移除

The institution's leaders complied in June, but left tarps and scaffolding where Trump's name had once been displayed.

该机构领导人于6月遵从在特朗普名字曾展示之处留下了防水布和脚手架

Streisand told the Associated Press that she was deeply honored to be chosen as a recipient of the 31st annual Kennedy Center Honors, adding: "For me, and for many artists, this honor represents far more than professional recognition. It represents a belief in the importance of art in democratic life."

史翠珊告诉美联社,她对被选为第31届肯尼迪中心年度荣誉获得者感到十分荣幸,并补充说:“对我以及许多艺术家来说,这一荣誉所代表的不仅是职业上的认可。它代表了对艺术在民主生活中重要性的信念。”
