Some, he explains, are glad they have got a son or a daughter, others that a different form of good fortune has befallen them.The ritual sacrifice of goats, buffaloes and roosters in temples and at home is widespread in Nepal where 80 percent of the population are Hindu.Some five million people from adjoining districts - and also from the bordering Indian states of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh - will attend the festival, according to local authorities, although only two days are dedicated to the sacrificial ritual itself.Motilal Kushwaha向印度女神嘉蒂麦承诺，如果他其中一个孩子找到工作就会向女神进献一只公山羊。去年他的儿子非常成功，所以在周六（11月29日）他加入了成千上万的人，参加了在尼泊尔南部嘉蒂麦神庙举行的世界最大宗教的大屠杀，杀死动物。从一个位于加德满都巴拉地区以南约60公里的社区 Bariyarpur来的Kushwaha说，“我们村子里的所有人都曾许愿(愿望成真则进献动物)”。他还解释道，有的人非常高兴他们有了儿子或者女儿，另外其他人也会有各种各样的好运降临他们。仪式上献祭山羊、水牛和公鸡在尼泊尔的寺庙和人们家中都是非常普遍，因为尼泊尔80%的人口都是印度教徒。当地政府估计，大约五百万人从毗邻的地区也有与印度接壤的比哈尔邦和北方邦将来参加这个节日，尽管这个祭祀仪式只举办两天。 2、Title: World Cup bids corruption: Picasso painting offered as kickback标题： 世界杯投标腐败:毕加索绘画作为回扣的Lead： Expensive works of art offered as inducements are at the center of the latest series of damaging allegations around the bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, a published report claimed Sunday.A painting, believed to be a Picasso, was allegedly gifted to Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) president and FIFA executive member Michel Platini in return for his support for the eventually successful Russian bid for the 2018 global showpiece.Another FIFA voting member, Michel DHooghe, from Belgium, was also the recipient of a landscape painting, given to him in a package wrapped in brown paper by Viacheslav Koloskov, a former Russian executive committee member working for his nations attempt to host the 2018 tournament, it is alleged in a report in The Sunday Times.在周日发表的一份报告中宣称，昂贵的艺术品正在被作为行贿的一种手段，例如最近一系列的对于2018年和2022年世界杯申办权的受贿的指控。一副被认为是毕加索的画，据说被俄罗斯作为赠送给欧足联总裁兼国际足联执委会成员普拉蒂尼的礼物以换取他对俄罗斯申办2018年世界杯的支持。根据在星期日泰晤士报的一份报告中得知，另一个国际足联有投票权的来自比利时的委员米歇尔DHooghe，也收到了一副用牛皮纸包裹起来的山水名画，来自前俄罗斯执行委员会成员维亚切斯拉夫科洛斯科夫，为了他的国家俄罗斯能够成功申办2018年世界杯。3、Title: As oil prices plunge, wide-ranging effects for consumers and the global economy标题：油价暴跌广泛地影响着消费者和全球经济Lead： Tumbling oil prices are draining hundreds of billions of dollars from the coffers of oil-rich exporters and oil companies and injecting a much-needed boost forailing economies in Europe and Japan and for American consumers at the start ofthe peak shopping season.The result could be one of the biggest transfers of wealth in history, potentially reshaping everything from talks over Irans nuclear program to the Federal Reserves policies to further rejuvenate the U.S. economy.The price of oil has declined about 40percent since its peak in mid-June and plunged last week after theOrganization of the Petroleum Exporting Countriesvoted to continue to pump at the same rate.
