第一：当地时间11日，英国伦敦传出一条爆炸性新闻：在厄瓜多尔驻英使馆生活了近7年的“维基揭秘”网站创始人朱利安·阿桑奇被英国警方逮捕。

1: At 11th local time, London, England reported a breaking news: Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks website, who had lived in the embassy of Ecuador for nearly seven years, was arrested by the British police.
分析人士认为，如果阿桑奇被引渡到美国，若就目前指控定罪，可能面临5年监禁，但很可能被追加新的指控。无论如何，阿桑奇的命运早已不在自己的掌握之中。

Analysts believe that if Assange is extradited to the United States, and convicted of the current allegations, he may face five years in prison but he is also likely to be accused of new charges. In any case, Assange’s fate is no longer in his own hands.
11日上午，阿桑奇在众目睽睽之下被英国警方“拖出”位于伦敦市中心的厄瓜多尔大使馆，“塞进”一辆灰色警车。

On 11th morning, the crowd watched Assange “dragged out” by the British police from the Ecuadorian Embassy in central London, and “pushed into” a gray police car.
第二：中国联通宣布，首家全国开通eSIM，这意味着eSIM将大规模走进公众视野。
dìèr ：ZhōngguóLiántōng xuānbù ，shǒujiā quánguó kāitōng ，zhè yìwèizhe jiāng dàguīmó zǒujìn gōngzhòng shìyě 。
