The 66th Cannes Film Festival, one of the world's leading annual cinema showcases, kicked off Wednesday evening in the rain. Movie stars, all wearing fabulous evening dresses, braved the rain while walking past photographers and videographers, heading to the opening ceremony venue - Cannes Film Palace. Recent Oscar rivals Steven Spielberg and Ang Lee were together again. The two are serving as jurors at the French festival. The 2013 edition, which runs from May 15 to 26, will showcase nearly 80 movies. Chinese director Jia Zhangke's "A Touch of Sin" becomes the first Chinese entrant for the Palme d'Or in 3 years.

台湾军舰战机高调军演
Taiwan's military vessels are taking part in a joint marine drill with coast guard patrol vessels in waters off southern Taiwan Thursday, Taiwan media reported. Two Mirage 2000 jets and an E-2K Hawkeye early-warning plane also took part after a Kidd-class destroyer was deployed earlier, Taiwan military authorities confirmed.

了解'乳房切除术'
安吉丽娜·朱莉日前透露，自己因基因缺陷而选择切除乳腺。此举引发各界对乳腺癌的强烈关注。
请听外媒报道：
Angelina Jolie revealed Tuesday that she has undergone a preventive double mastectomy because she had a very high risk of breast cancer. Jolie said that because of this gene, known as BRCA1, her doctors estimated she had an 87% risk of breast cancer and 50% risk of ovarian cancer.
安吉丽娜·朱莉本周二自曝已接受预防性双乳切除术，因为她本人罹患乳腺癌的风险极高。朱莉表示自己携带一种叫做BRCA1的缺陷基因，医生推测她有87%的风险患乳腺癌，50%的风险患卵巢癌。
Double mastectomy就是"双侧乳腺/乳房切除术"，mastectomy来自希腊语，是breast(乳房)和removal(摘除、切除)二词的合成形式，指部分或全部摘除单侧或双侧乳房的外科手术。
朱莉表示，自己有基因缺陷(carries a faulty gene)，因此决定尽可能将风险最小化(minimize the risk)。此次手术，她双侧乳房的乳腺管(breast ducts)以及乳腺组织(breast tissue)均被清除，然后用乳房植入物(breast implant)填充，最后进行乳房重塑手术(reconstructive surgery)。
