at the moment I cover the Albanian news program, but I wonder whether I could cover the English news program as well. In order to obtain that position, (English translation and speaker), I am putting myself to the test by translating news from Italian into English. My butt is to improve my translation skills, with regard to news especially.
Below you'll find a short text. thanks in advance.
Ferragosto
Almost every Italian has gone to the seaside, on the mountains, or is visiting cities of art. at least 40 million of Italian people have taken their holidays on the occasion of Ferragosto week-end. 30 millions have chosen local areas and the other 10 millions have gone abroad. there are 7 million Italians who left yesterday, and who will be back to work this monday. traffic jams are ordinary on the Italian highways these days, especially on those directed to south Italy. according to the Italian Highway society's estimates 7 million automobiles will be moing on the main Italian streets. those traveling with their own cars or motocycles will also have to face new fines. from today on fines have become much more expensive and in some cases they have redoubled. being detected while guiding and speaking on the phone at the same time, or being caught deprived of security belts, and again being caught while guiding your motocycle without a crash helmet, will cost you 68 euros, instead of 32 euros of the previous sanction. security measures have become even more severe for all those who do not respect traffic lights.
