📰 Biden Charts Course for New Administration
President-elect’s transition team reviews series of executive orders that could reverse Trump administration policies
📌 這篇文章關於拜登成爲美國總統當選人(President-elect)，標題說他為新政府當局 (new administration)謀劃路線(chart course)，副標題提述過渡小組 (transition team) 正在回顧現任總統川普的行政命令(executive order)。
WASHINGTON—President-elect Joe Biden forged ahead with his transition to the White House, charting a course for significant policy changes even as President Trump declined to concede the race.
📌 這一段說當川普總統婉拒 (decline) 承認落敗 (concede the race)，拜登穩步前進 (forge ahead) 處理過渡事宜，涉及重大政策改變(significant policy changes)。
A day after the Associated Press declared the 77-year-old Democratic former vice president had garnered enough electoral college votes to win the presidency, Mr. Biden’s transition team was weighing who would fill senior roles in the White House and across the government, according to people familiar with the matter.
📌 美聯社 (the Associated Press) 宣佈拜登當選後的一天，他的過渡小組考慮 (weigh) 填補白宮 (the White House) 以及政府各處的高級角色 (senior roles)。
It also was discussing executive orders that would reverse some of the Republican incumbent’s signature policy initiatives, including his decision to pull out of the Paris climate-change agreement, the people said.
📌 川普總統有關離開巴黎氣候變化協議 (the Paris climate-change agreement) 或許會被逆轉 (reverse)。
A transition spokesman said no decision had been made on which executive orders to pursue, but added, “He has the same levers at his disposal as all of his predecessors to address the crises facing the American people.”
📌過渡發言人說，拜登擁有前任總統的權力處理美國人面對的危機。
The Saturday announcement of Mr. Biden’s win capped an extraordinary week in which both campaigns, and the nation as a whole, awaited projections on a vote count that took longer than expected because of the widespread use of mail-in voting due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The AP’s tally of votes remains preliminary until certified by individual states, and several states have yet to be called. The Electoral College votes in December, and the final results are announced in Congress in January.
📌 郵遞投票 (mail-in voting) 令宣佈誰贏得大選需要更長的時間 (take longer than expected)，美聯社的票數仍然是初步的 (preliminary)，有待個別州份確認。
Mr. Trump’s campaign has filed lawsuits to contest the vote-counting process in several states, though it was unclear whether any, if successful, would meaningfully change a state’s results.
The Trump campaign announced Sunday that Rep. Doug Collins (R., Ga.), who ran for Senate but failed to advance to a runoff election, would lead its efforts to secure a recount in Georgia. Mr. Biden currently leads in the state by 0.21%, according to the AP, and state law requires an automatic recount if the margin is 0.5% or less.
Mr. Trump’s advisers are putting together a team of lawyers focused on key states, and they have diverted nearly 100 staffers to Georgia alone, according to a person familiar with the matter, many from the successful Florida effort.
