分类: 英语美文 

He was accused of putting a dampener on Donald Trump's visit to London last month by allowing a giant balloon of him dressed in a nappy to fly over the capital.
上个月,唐纳德·特朗普访问伦敦的时候,他允许人们把穿着尿裤的巨型川普气球升上伦敦上空而备受指责。

But now Sadiq Khan is to face his own humiliation as protesters prepare to launch an inflatable showing the London mayor dressed in a bright-yellow bikini.
但如今萨迪克·卡恩也要面对耻辱了,因为抗议者们准备把穿着亮黄色比基尼的伦敦市长气球升上天空。

Organisers raised more than £58,000 online to pay for the blimp of Mr Khan following the furore over the 20ft balloon, dubbed 'Trump Baby', which was granted permission to rise above Parliament Square during the US President's visit last month.
组织者们在网上筹资逾58000英镑,制作了卡恩的巨型气球。上个月美国总统访英的时候,卡恩允许人们在国会广场上放飞了被称为“川普宝宝”的20英尺的气球。

The inflatable depicting a bikini-clad Mr Khan, which is slightly larger than its rival at 29ft, will be flown in the same Westminster location on Saturday morning.
穿着比基尼的卡恩气球比川普气球稍大一些,有29英尺。星期六上午,人们将在威斯敏斯特同一位置放飞卡恩气球。

Yanny Bruere, the 28-year-old marketing manager behind the effigy , said he had been angered by the Mayor's focus on political point scoring instead of dealing with soaring crime.
28岁的营销经理雅尼·布鲁尔是这一事件的组织者,他表示市长把注意力放在党派斗争上,而不是着手解决急剧上升的犯罪问题,对此他非常愤怒。

He said: 'I was just so irritated that Mr Khan took it upon himself to speak on behalf of the UK over the President's visit.
他说:“我只是很气愤,在美国总统访英的时候,卡恩自己代表英国表明了态度。

'Whatever anyone thinks of Mr Trump, he is still leader of the free world and should be accorded the respect of that position, especially at such a critical time for the UK as we face separation from the EU.
“不论大家如何评价特朗普,他依然是这个自由世界的一位领导人,他应该被给予尊重,特别是在英国脱离欧盟的这种关键时刻。

Mr Khan today made light of the inflatable depicting him.
今天卡恩轻描淡写地谈起了人们为他准备的气球。

He said: ‘If people want to spend their Saturday looking at me in a yellow bikini they’re welcome to do so – I don’t really think yellow’s my colour though.’
他表示,“如果人们想在星期六观看穿着黄色比基尼的我上天,欢迎大家参与,但我觉得黄色不适合我。”
