早上好。您正在阅读《Up First》通讯。 此处订阅，以及 今日头条新闻 特朗普总统昨晚为中国领导人习近平举行了国宴，此前两人在白宫会晤了约三小时。这是世界两大经济体领导人为期两天峰会的首日。
Good morning. You're reading the Up First newsletter. here to , and Today's top stories President Trump hosted Chinese leader Xi Jinping for a state dinner last night, after the two met for around three hours at the White House. It was the first of a two-day summit for the leaders of the world's two largest economies. NPR's Deepa Shivaram tells Up First that expectations were low for major announcements from the summit.
NPR记者Deepa Shivaram告诉《Up First》，外界对本次峰会产生重大宣布的预期较低。美中官员曾讨论建立一个信息共享系统，以便就影响国家安全的AI事件相互通报。她补充说，这将是全球AI安全领域的一大进展，因为该技术鲜有护栏。但该提案能推进多远仍不清楚。特朗普曾表示，他希望AI监管“保持原样”。即使美中在AI领域展开竞争，两国专家一直在就共同风险举行非正式会谈，包括网络攻击和失控风险。
U.S. and Chinese officials had discussed an information-sharing system to alert each other to AI incidents affecting national security. She adds that this would be a big development in global AI security, because few guardrails exist for this technology. But it remains unclear how far this proposal will go. Trump has said he wants to leave AI regulation "exactly where it is." Even as the U.S. and China compete over AI, experts from both countries have been holding informal talks on shared risks, including cyberattacks and loss of control. Despite a federal judge's ruling restoring White House press access, CNN and MS Now were still denied entry to last night's state dinner.
尽管联邦法官裁决恢复白宫新闻采访权，CNN和MSNBC仍被拒绝进入昨晚的国宴。NPR记者Brian Mann表示，受中国政府控制的媒体记者获准入内。主要电视网络尚未恢复对总统的完整联合采访报道，并正寻求书面保证，确保CNN获得平等采访权且不受政府干预。听取新闻自由专家解读该裁决解决了什么——以及未解决什么。
NPR's Brian Mann says journalists for state-controlled Chinese media were allowed in. Major TV networks have not restored full shared pool coverage of the president and are seeking written assurance that CNN will receive equal access without government interference. Listen to a press freedom expert explain what the ruling does — and doesn't — settle. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu returns to Israel today after a short trip to address the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡今日结束对纽约的短暂访问返回以色列，此行主要是为了在联合国大会上发表演讲。当内塔尼亚胡走上讲台时，数十名外交官选择退场抗议，而公众席上则有部分支持者欢呼喝彩。内塔尼亚胡在演讲中赞扬并捍卫了美以主导的对伊朗战争，拒绝承认以色列在加沙地带犯下种族灭绝罪行，并淡化了以色列定居者在被占约旦河西岸针对巴勒斯坦人暴力行为不断升级的问题——根据国际法，该地区的定居点属于非法。
Dozens of diplomats walked out as Netanyahu took the podium for his address, while some supporters cheered from the public gallery. Netanyahu went on to celebrate and defend the U.S. and Israeli-led war in Iran, reject claims that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza and downplay the escalating settler violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, where settlements are illegal under international law. NPR's Kat Lonsdorf says that this week has underscored how increasingly isolated Israel has become both at the United Nations and in public opinion.
美国国家公共电台（NPR）记者卡特·朗斯多夫表示，本周的事件凸显了以色列在联合国和国际舆论中日益孤立的处境。约100人因在曼哈顿中城大规模聚集抗议内塔尼亚胡访美而被捕，高呼“让加沙活下去”、“全世界都在注视”。纽约市长佐赫兰·马姆达尼也公开反对以色列总理的此次访问。内塔尼亚胡在返程前仅会见了极少数世界领导人，值得注意的是，他并未与特朗普会面。
About 100 people were arrested after large groups gathered in Midtown Manhattan to protest Netanyahu's visit, chanting "Let Gaza live" and "the whole world is watching." New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has also been outspoken against the Israeli prime minister's visit. Netanyahu met with very few world leaders before returning to Israel, and notably did not meet with Trump. The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has surpassed 7% for the first time in more than a year.
平均30年期固定利率抵押贷款利率突破7%，创下一年多来新高。自3月以来利率的大幅上涨进一步挤压了购房者的预算，加剧了房地产市场的冻结。全美房地产经纪人协会数据显示，高企的抵押贷款利率导致8月二手房销量环比下降2%。住房研究人员原本寄望2026年能带来一些缓解。但尽管抵押贷款利率在2月曾短暂跌破6%，却因伊朗战争导致债券市场波动而迅速反弹。深度解析本月初，美联储加息25个基点，旨在抑制通胀加速。但这究竟是如何运作的？以下是更清晰的解释。
The sharp rise in rates since March risks further squeezing homebuyers' budgets and deepening the freeze on the housing market. High mortgage rates contributed to a 2% decline in existing home sales in August from the previous month, according to the National Association of Realtors. Housing researchers had hoped 2026 would provide some relief. But while mortgage rates briefly fell below 6% in February, they quickly shot back up after the war in Iran led to volatility in bond markets Deep dive Earlier this month, the Federal Reserve raised interest rates a quarter percentage point, aiming to slow the acceleration of inflation. But how does that actually work? Here's a clearer explanation. 💵 The Fed raises its interest rate in hopes of triggering a domino effect across the economy that pushes up borrowing costs. The main goal is to cool prices by encouraging people and businesses to spend more carefully.
💵 美联储加息，旨在引发经济领域的多米诺骨牌效应，推高借贷成本。主要目标是通过鼓励民众和企业更审慎地消费来抑制物价上涨。💵 当美联储担忧劳动力市场时，会降息以提振消费支出和投资。
💵 When the Fed is worried about the labor market, it cuts interest rates to boost consumer spending and investment. 💵 The small rate hike won't significantly affect the economy, but it comes as many borrowing costs are rising. Weekend picks
💵 此次小幅加息不会对经济产生显著影响，但正值许多借贷成本上升之际。周末精选看看 NPR 本周末在看、在读、在听什么：🍿 电影：提及即将上映的影片时，纪录片往往容易被淹没。《流行文化快乐时光》节目推荐了几部值得一看的新纪录片。
