3. It's a multimedia production designed to bring in younger audience and was commissioned for the very reason by the Anne Frank Funds， a foundation set up by Anne's father Otto.
舞台剧的设备包括当年的投影仪和一系列旋转设备，通过多媒体制作，来吸引年轻观众。正因为如此，这笔资金出自安妮父亲奥托成立的安妮·弗兰克基金。
本句结构较为复杂，and连接的是两个并列句，在第一个并列句中，designed to bring in younger audience做a multimedia production的后置定语；整个句子最后一部分，a foundation set up by Anne's father Otto与the Anne Frank Funds是并列成分。
07：新闻热点及书信正在消失Hot topics&；Letter writing is being killed off
31/12/2013
I'm Jonathan Savage with a selection of highlights from across BBC World Service News today.
Coming up：'cinq， quatre， trois， deux， un！'A giant telescope is launched into the earth orbit and we'll hear why scientists believe it's one of the most ambitious events in the history of space exploration.
Two Muslim radicals are found guilty of the brutal murder of a British soldier on a London street. Also in our podcast， an Iraki Shiite man tells us why he's been to neighboring Syria to take part in the civil war there.
'I went to Syria to defend a holy Shiite shrine but also because I want to defend Shiite who have been victimized by Al Qida.'
And we'll hear how the conflict in Syria is fueling the worsening sectarian violence within Iraq.
Controversial world boxing cham-pion Mike Tyson describes his present day life.
And we ask-is the art of letter writ-ing dying out and should it be preser-ved？
Is social media killing off the art of letter writing？Nearly half of the 12 to 17 year-olds interviewed for a new British survey claim they've never sent a personal letter. And many describe the process as how dated， slow， inconvenient and expensive. So is letter writing a skill that we need to preserve？Simon Garfield is the author of To The Letter：A Journey Through a Vanishing World. Dan Damen asked him if he believes that letter writing is indeed dying out among young people like the ones we just heard.
'Yeah， I mean if you grow up not writing letters， you can not think why you should spend 60 pence in the UK to write a letter. And you've got to sit down and you've got to spend half an hour gathering your thoughts.'
'Is it damaging the use of grammar because this is a critical area of literary inefficiency. Text messages never follow rules for better writing techniques. There's no grammar being adhered to the choice of words.'
'Yeah， I don't mind so much personally. I think you know， if you look at the history communication， we've always developed new words and new ways of communication and short form. You think， in the letter， you know， we still write a SWALK on the back of envelope-Sealed With A Loving Kiss.'
'We would have kind of shorter forms. So I don't think we could complain about it. And everyone writes in their own way. So I don't think that such a difficulty.'
译文：
我是乔纳森·萨维奇，给您带来最重要的BBC世界新闻。
这次新闻的主要内容有：“五、四、三、二、一！（法语）”一个巨大的望远镜被发射进入地球轨道，为什么科学家们会认为这是太空探索史上最伟大的事件之一呢？
两个穆斯林激进分子在伦敦街道残忍地杀害了一名英国士兵。一位伊拉克什叶派人向我们讲述了他前往邻国叙利亚参加内战的原因。
“我去叙利亚是为了守卫一个什叶神龛，另一个原因是我想为饱受基地组织迫害的什叶派而战。”
叙利亚冲突加剧了伊拉克内部不断升级的宗教暴力事件。
颇具争议的世界拳王迈克·泰森向我们描述了他现在的日常生活。
我们怀疑，写信的这种形式会消失吗？我们应该保存这种形式吗？
社交媒体正在使写信的形式消失吗？英国一项新的调查显示，12岁到17岁的受访人群中半数承认从未写过书信。许多人认为写信是已经过时的了，既不方便又得花钱。那么我们需要保护写信这种形式吗？西蒙·加菲尔德是《致书信：逐渐消逝的世界旅程》一书的作者。BBC记者丹·达曼问他是否认为写信这种形式真的在年轻人中逐渐消亡，正如我们刚才听到的那样。
“是的。如果你生长在一个不写信的时代，你很难想象为什么在英国要花60便士去写一封信，还得坐下来花半个小时整理头绪。”
“（社交媒体）特别不注重文字的安排，短信从来不会遵从写作技巧和规则，选词方面也完全忽视语法。这会有损语法的使用吗？”
“嗯，我并不太在意这些。我想，如果你回顾人类交流的历史，你会发现我们总是在发明新词、新的交流方式以及缩略形式。想想看，写信的时候，我们还是会在信封背面写上SWALK的字样，即以爱之吻封缄。”
“我们会用类似的缩略形式。所以说这并没有什么可抱怨的。每个人都可以用自己的方式写信。所以我认为你说的问题不大。”

08：非盟着手解决非洲童婚问题及其他新闻热点The child marriage issue in Africa&；other hot topics
30/05/2014
The African Union has begun a major campaign to end child marriage in Africa. Experts say underage marriage cut short the childhood of all the 17 million girls or one in three across the continent. Here's Richard Hamilton.'Activists say child marriage jeopardizes girls'rights， such as access to education， because new brides are forced to drop out of school to their children and provide household labour. There are significant health risks if very young girls get pregnant. Young brides also often live as virtual prisoners with few social connections， have hardly any power in their new homes and frequently suffer domestic violence. The country with the highest percentage of underage marriage is Niger.'
