中国著名导演英达违反美国康涅狄格州法律，2011年4月到2012年3月之间的11个月内先后把46.4万美元存入他和妻子的联名账户，联邦法官将于5月11日对此案宣判，英达最高面临10年的刑期，以及最高50万美元的罚款。请看本报昨日的报道：

    Chinese director Ying Da has pleaded guilty to currency violations in Connecticut, the United States, and could face up to 10 years in prison and a maximum fine of US$500,000.

    According to court documents, Ying structured 50 cash deposits into his and his wife’s six accounts at four banks in Connecticut between April 2011 and March 2012.

    报道中的violation 就是“违反”。例如：

    Amnesty International opposes the death penalty as a violation of the right to life.

    国际特赦组织反对死刑，称其违背了生命权。
