Governments across the Middle East are bracing(严阵以待，做好准备) for an escalation(升级，加剧) of violence after Iran claimed it had received intelligence that the US was preparing for a renewed bombing campaign(重启的轰炸行动) against the Islamic Republic(伊朗伊斯兰共和国的正式国名).
伊朗声称获得情报，显示美国正准备对伊朗伊斯兰共和国重启轰炸行动，中东各国政府正严阵以待，准备迎接暴力升级。
In a potential sign of growing tensions before the UN general assembly(联合国大会，每年在纽约举行) in New York this week, Donald Trump cut short(缩短，提前结束) a weekend visit to the Camp David(美国总统的官方度假地) presidential retreat on Sunday with no official explanation, and a new security alert(安全警报) was issued by the state department to all US citizens in the Middle East.
本周联合国大会将在纽约召开，紧张局势可能进一步加剧。一个潜在迹象是，唐纳德·特朗普周日突然缩短了在总统度假地戴维营的周末行程，且未给出官方解释；同时，美国国务院向中东所有美国公民发布了新的安全警报。
Keeping his options open(保留选择余地), Trump reportedly told a Fox News reporter “very big things are going to be happening in the not-so-distant future(在不久的将来)” and that the options he was considering were “wiping Iran out, letting them rot(腐烂，经济上衰败) economically or making a deal”.
特朗普显然在保留选择余地，据报道他对福克斯新闻记者说，“不久的将来会发生非常大的事情”，并称他正在考虑的选项包括“彻底消灭伊朗、让其在经济上腐烂，或者达成协议”。
