 Prime Minister Ehud Barak said in a television interview on Monday
that Israel was prepared to accept U.S. President Bill Clinton’s peace proposal
without changes if Palestinian President Yasser Arafat did as well. Arafat said some of the American ideas presented after a five-day round of U.S.-hosted talks last week fell short of ideas he had already rejected in July at failed Camp David talks.  proposal：建议，提议；巴拉克在电视访谈中说，只要阿拉法特能够接受克林顿的和平提议，他也将接受提议。 short
of：缺少，达不到；阿拉法特认为克林顿在五天的会议上提出的和平提议缺乏新意，与他在七月戴维营会谈上拒绝的提议差别不大。Clinton suggested leaving Israel sovereign only over Jerusalem’s Jewish Quarter and some of the Armenian Quarter. In the interview, Barak, anxious to forge a deal polls say could be his only chance of re-election on February 6, heatedly denied he would break a 1999 campaign promise not to divide Jerusalem. sovereign：统治，支配。 heatedly：激动的，激烈的；巴拉克否认他将违背他99年竞选时做出的决不分割耶路撒冷的保证。Peace talks have been stalemated since the U.S.-brokered talks collapsed and have been further undermined by nearly three months of fighting in which at least 343 people, all Palestinian except 13 Israeli Arabs and 39 other Israelis, have died. Continuing the round of violence that has pitted Palestinian stone-throwers and gunmen against Israeli soldiers, Palestinians near the self-ruled city of Nablus opened fire on a nearby Jewish settlement, Palestinian witnesses said. stalemate：成为僵局。 undermine：破坏，毁坏；三个月来的巴以流血冲突造成了至少343人死亡，严重破坏了巴以和平进程。 |
