[Eve ()]

希望大家幫幫忙  感激不盡阿^_^
原文的近似版(還是有些地方不同)
在此http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2004/7/20/183829.shtml
不過網頁有點怪,有些字漏掉了

(1)The largest naval exercise the United States has ever held is meant to send
a direct signal to the Chinese, Tan added.It's gunboat diplomacy and its

                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                            請問是什麼意思呢??
(2)另外Jonathan Pollack, chairman of the strategic research department at the
Naval War College in Newport, R.I., said: If ever there was a case of mixing
                                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
apples and oranges, this is it.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  這句話我真的看不懂他想暗示什麼??

(3)In the past, the United States has sent an aircraft carrier group to a
troubled spot to "show the flag" while in combat it deloy three to four,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
怎麼翻比較好呢?    這個就不太懂了~~
as it did during the invasion of Iraq in 2003 and 1999 experts say.
