1 Introduction
  It is widely known that along with the development of economic globalization, the interactions between different countries have been increasingly intensified. Where there is life, there is a piece of news. All the international communication can’t live alone without the spreading of English. The translation of English news is a special efficient way in spreading information to readers. English news has been playing an important role in improving the international communication. From the above reasons, it is essential to understand the English news requirements, features and translation of English news in order to avoid the mistakes and losses in understanding English news. However, it is not easy to translate English news well. Therefore, it is rather important to have an comprehensive study of the features and translation of English news. 
  This paper discusses systematically the requirements of English news and its features in headline, lead, lexicon and grammar. Then this paper studies and analyzes the appropriate methods which are literal translation, free translation, flexible translation, transliteration and explanatory translation of English news. The paper emphasizes on the inner relation between the features and translation of English news, which is essential for successful English news study.
