安检人员和志愿者招聘都进行一年多了竟然都没招聘到足够人手~他们可是在各大招聘网站定期疯狂投放广告的啊~竟然没招够`鄙视这群好吃懒做的土人~看我天朝大家挤破脑袋去做志愿者~ Caroline WyattDefence correspondent, BBC News : With little more than a fortnight [1] to go before the Games, it's becoming clear that the armed forces are being asked to step in. The move could come as an embarrassment to G4S. Whitehall sources are keen to stress that there will be no negative impact from all this on security at the Games, pointing out that the plan was always to have a mix of civilian and military personnel guarding the Games, with the contingency plans being activated as an "insurance policy". But there has been anger within the military that they are being asked to step in, not least at a time when the armed forces are being downsized. 还有两个星期伦敦奥运会就要开幕拉，运动员和观众的安全则至关重要，由于此前的承包商 G4S人手不够，政府决定动用警力支援。 The UK's armed forces are on standby [2] to provide an additional 3,500 troops to help with security at the 2012 London Olympics, the BBC has learned. It comes amid fears that private contractor G4S would not be able to provide enough trained staff in time. The armed forces are already providing some 13,500 personnel - this could now reach 17,000, meaning summer leave for some troops is likely to be cancelled. G4S said it had "some issues in relation to workforce supply". The company is being paid ?300m to guard the Games, but the BBC understands it has not been able to guarantee it can supply the 10,000 guards it has been contracted to deliver. 'No impact' A G4S spokeswoman said the company had accepted "that the government has decided to overlay [3] additional resources". She added: "This has been an unprecedented [4] and very complex security recruitment, training and deployment exercise which has been carried out to a tight timescale. "We have encountered some issues in relation to workforce supply and scheduling over the last couple of weeks, but are resolving these every day and remain committed to providing a security workforce for the start of the London 2012 Games." The armed forces were already due to provide some 13,500 personnel to help at the Games, with more available as a contingency plan. Whitehall sources are keen to stress that there is no impact on security at the Games. Defence Secretary Philip Hammond will announce more details about the extra troops on Thursday, the Home Office said. In a statement, it said: "We have agreed to offer help to G4S by revising the level of military support." It added the government and all involved were focused on delivering a "safe and secure Games". "Our approach is intelligence-led and risk-based, and we retain the ability to be flexible in our response. "The government is committing ?553m for venue security and we remain confident that we will deliver within budget." 'Deeply concerned' Keith Vaz, the Labour chairman of the Home Affairs Select Committee, has said he will write to the home secretary for an explanation to find out what is happening. He said he was "deeply concerned" that G4S were now unable to deliver their contract and that "the Home Office have left contingency plans to the last moment". And Labour's shadow Olympics minister, Tessa Jowell MP, said there was "clearly a serious problem". "With two weeks to go to the start of the Games, it is imperative [5] that action is taken to ensure that the full and necessary quota of security personnel are in place so that the Games will be safe and secure," she said. "We need to know why the problem has emerged so late in the day and precisely what has been agreed to. "We also must know whether this affects army commitments elsewhere, which units are providing people and what terms and conditions are given for those who will likely lose periods of leave." She added that - in the spirit of the cross-party approach to the Games - it was "essential that the opposition is kept fully informed of these events as they develop". G4S said its planning with organising committee Locog and other security agencies allowed for "a variety of contingencies which have been reviewed in the build-up to the Games." A spokesman for the London mayor, Boris Johnson, said: "The mayor takes the issue of Olympics security extremely seriously, and having the finest and bravest service men and woman in the world at our disposal during the Games should be a source of great comfort." The government has previously said a total security force of 23,700 will take care of venue [6] security, including the G4S contingent. G4S will have overall control of Olympic venue security, working alongside unarmed troops, searching and checking people going into the stadiums and other venues. Olympic sites number more than 30 sporting venues and more than 70 "non-competition venues" including car parks and hotels. 专八词汇: [1] fortnight ['f?rtna?t] n. 两星期 [2] standby ['staendba?] n. 备用品；可信赖的人 adj. 备用的 adv.备用地；待命地 [3] overlay [??v?'le?] vt. 把置于…之上(与with连用)：The lane to the garden was overlaid with stones. 通往花园的小径上铺了一层石子。覆盖；遮盖：In the room there was a huge stove overlaid with rust. 房间中有一个长满了锈的大炉子。涂上；镀；包；镶：the wooden frame richly overlaid with gold [4] unprecedented [?n'pres?dent?d] adj. 空前的；无前例的 [5] imperative [?m'per?t?v] adj. 必要的，势在必行的；命令的；紧急的 n. 需要；命令；祈使语气；规则 [6] venue ['venju:] n. 审判地；犯罪地点；发生地点；集合地点转自人人某主页君，各处搬运新闻稿的好人，不过新闻稿这种东西超级无爱，还不如去翻各家网站上的有趣东东看传送门：http://page.renren.com/601460620/note/860358816
