Donetsk Residents Anxious for Return to Normal Life 顿涅茨克居民渴望重返正常生活
DONETSK, UKRAINE — Away from the two government buildings being held by pro-Russian separatists, normal life goes on in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk. Many residents are concerned, though, that Ukraine's decision to restart what it calls "anti-terrorist operations" against separatists could draw the entire region into a military confrontation 1 with Russia.
Since seizing two municipal buildings in Donetsk, pro-Russian activists 2 have held fewer rallies in the streets.
自从2人在顿涅茨克的市政大楼内被抓后,亲俄分子已经很少在街上举行集会。
Yulia Sadan, who works at the Coffee Street Cafe, said now it is back to business as usual in the city. “When there were rallies the main street was closed and there were fewer customers, but now everything is calm in the city. People are walking in the streets. It's nice and warm.”
在咖啡街咖啡馆工作的尤莉娅·萨旦表示现在生意已经回到了往昔。“那时一有集会大街就冷冷清清,很少有客人来店里坐坐,但是现在一切都很平静。人们走在街上。让人感到高兴并且很温暖。”
The Ukrainian flag still flies over the Bank of Russia building despite rumors 3 it was to be replaced by the Russian flag.
尽管谣言称将被俄罗斯国旗所取代，但现在乌克兰国旗仍然在俄罗斯银行大楼上迎风飘扬。

While life has returned to normal, many Donetsk residents are concerned and conflicted over Ukraine's decision to relaunch operations against the pro-Russian separatists occupying government buildings.
虽然生活已经恢复正常,但是顿涅茨克居民仍然担心乌克兰对亲俄分离主义分子占领政府大楼决定采取行动所引发的冲突。
Vladimir Zosimov said the government should negotiate more. “Very Bad. There is no dialogue and this is already sad. And if there will be more victims, it will be even more sad."

But many people think it is time for action, people like Vitaliy who did not want to give his last name.
但是很多人认为是时候采取行动,这位不愿透露自己姓氏叫做维塔利的人说道:
"There needs to be more decisive moves toward the stabilization 4 of the events in the region. That is not only my opinion, but the majority of Donetsk residents. We are not in favor of what is happening.”
“稳定这一地区发生的事件需要的是决定性举措。这不仅仅是我的观点,而是大多数顿涅茨克居民的心声。我们不赞成正在发生的事情。”
Many others in Donetsk,say they would just like the whole conflict to go away so that normal life can go on.
