And coming up， we observe one-minute silence in remembrance and in thanks giving.
Here in England， a memorial service has taken place at one of the cathedrals of football in this country， Liverpool stadium Anfield. It was held to mark the 25th anniversary of Britain's worst ever sporting disaster when 96 Liverpool fans died in a crash during a match at the Hillsborough stadium in Sheffield. This report by David Bond.
This was the moment when Liver-pool came to a standstill to remember the victims of Hillsborough：tunnels closed， the ferry stopped， a city united in respect and grief. At Anfield， more than 25，000 gathered， fans， relatives， players past and present to mark a quarter of a century since the tragedy. On the famous pitch scarves form the number 96 to honor those who died. And local clergymen read out names of the victims. Lights were lit inside a giant silver ring to commemorate the fathers and sons， brothers and sisters who went to a football game and never returned. We observe one-minute silence in remembrance and in thanksgiving.
Liverpool's manager Brendan Rod-gers might still be relatively new to the club. But he said he knew what today meant.
At Anfield Stadium， as the city of Liverpool marks the 25th anniversary of the Hillsborough football disaster.

47：德国是世界上最受欢迎的国家BBC poll：Germany most popular country in the world
23/05/2013
Germany is the most positively viewed nation in the world in this year's annual Country Ratings Poll for the BBC World Service.
More than 26，000 people were surveyed internationally for the poll.
They were asked to rate 16 countries and the European Union on whether their influence in the world was'mainly positive'or'mainly negative'.
Germany came out top， with 59%rating it positively. Iran was once again the most negatively viewed.
Global views of Europe's most po-pulous country have improved signifi-cantly in 2013，according to the poll.
It was conducted for the BBC by GlobeScan and PIPA， who conducted face-to-face and telephone interviews with randomly selected people in 25 countries.
Of those countries，22 have been surveyed two years in a row， so become the tracking countries on which the average ratings are based.
These averages exclude the target country's rating of itself. So for example， the opinions of Germans on Germany are excluded， meaning the country's average rating is based on 21 tracking countries.
But Germany， whose economy has done better than almost every other in Europe in recent years， scored well across the world.
In Ghana，84%of people polled said Germany's influence was mainly positive， while 81%in neighbouring France and 76%in Australia felt the same. But in debt-laden Greece a majo-rity of people polled gave Germany negative ratings.
India is ranked 12th， with negative views（35%）slightly outnumbering positive ones（34%）for the first time.
The poll also indicates that positive views of China and India have fallen sharply around the world over the last year. After improving for several years， views of China have sunk to their lowest level since polling began in 2005，putting it in ninth position.
Israel， North Korea， Pakistan and Iran came out worst in terms of how they are viewed globally. Only 15%of respondents said they saw Iran as having a mainly positive influence.
The UK saw a bigger increase in positive ratings than any other country and climbed to third place in the table， in the wake of its hosting of the 2012 Olympics.
Positive views of the EU dropped to their lowest level last year but have stabilised this year， rising one point to 49%on average.
But this figure masks significant changes. There has been a sharp drop in positive ratings by Germans， down 14 points to 59%. Canadians and Americans both give significantly lower ratings to the EU. In the UK， positive views of the EU continue to fall steadily and， for the first time this year， more Britons rate it negatively（47%）than positively（42%）.
