Bond yields pulled back(回落，撤退) from recent peaks. The yields on 30-year American government bonds had reached their highest levels since 2007, as investors worried about mounting(不断增加的) government debt, among other things(除了其他事情之外). The Treasury intervened, doubling its repurchases of long-dated government bonds, a move that increases demand for the bonds, and so pushes their yields lower.(财政部干预，将长期国债回购翻倍，此举增加需求，压低收益率。) Yields had surged elsewhere, too. Japan’s ten-year yield almost breached(突破，攻破) 3% for the first time since the 1990s. German ten- and 30-year yields rose to 15-year highs and French ten-year yields were at their highest in 18 years.
债券收益率从近期高点回落。由于投资者担忧政府债务不断攀升等问题，30年期美国国债收益率此前已升至2007年以来的最高水平。美国财政部出手干预，将其对长期国债的回购规模翻倍，此举增加了对债券的需求，从而压低了收益率。其他地区的收益率也曾飙升。日本十年期国债收益率几乎突破3%，为1990年代以来首次。德国十年期和30年期国债收益率升至15年高点，法国十年期国债收益率则创下18年来最高。
Underlining(强调，凸显) those market concerns, America’s total national debt rose above $40trn(万亿（trillion的缩写）) for the first time(首次，第一次). The debt has doubled in less than a decade.
这些市场担忧凸显了美国国债总额首次突破40万亿美元。不到十年，债务已翻倍。
Claiming that the Trump administration is trying to bully its ABC network, Disney filed a lawsuit against the Federal Communications Commission over the agency’s plan for an early review of ABC’s broadcast licences, saying it was part of a “retaliatory campaign”.(迪士尼称特朗普政府欺凌ABC，起诉FCC，称其审查计划是报复。) Last year Jimmy Kimmel’s show was briefly suspended when the FCC’s chairman criticised the host’s comments on a slain(被杀害的) conservative activist. The FCC is also investigating “The View”, another chat show, and Disney’s diversity policies.
迪士尼声称特朗普政府试图欺凌其ABC电视网，因此对联邦通信委员会提起诉讼，反对该机构提前审查ABC广播牌照的计划，称这是“报复行动”的一部分。去年，吉米·坎摩尔的节目曾因FCC主席批评主持人关于一名被杀害的保守派活动人士的言论而短暂停播。FCC还在调查另一档脱口秀《观点》以及迪士尼的多元化政策。
