8月2號(hào)雙語(yǔ)精選：英外交部長(zhǎng)訪華現(xiàn)口誤

Hunt makes 'terrible' gaffe?
英外交部長(zhǎng)訪華現(xiàn)口誤
把中國(guó)妻子說(shuō)成日本人

Jeremy Hunt, Britain's new foreign secretary, made an awkward debut in China when he sought to curry favor with his hosts by mentioning his Chinese wife, but accidentally referred to her as "Japanese". Hunt, who was on his first official visit to China since taking over from Boris Johnson, quickly acknowledged the "terrible" error.?
英國(guó)新任外交部長(zhǎng)杰里米·亨特第一次訪華出現(xiàn)了十分尷尬的一幕，他本想通過(guò)提及自己的中國(guó)妻子來(lái)討好東道主，但卻不小心把妻子說(shuō)成是"日本人"。接替鮑里斯·約翰遜后首次正式訪華的亨特很快承認(rèn)了這個(gè)"糟糕"的錯(cuò)誤。

"My wife is Japanese – my wife is Chinese. That's a terrible mistake to make," he told his counterpart, Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi. "My wife is Chinese and my children are half-Chinese and so we have Chinese grandparents who live in Xi'an and strong family connections in China," he added.

他對(duì)中國(guó)外交部長(zhǎng)王毅說(shuō)："我的妻子是日本人——我的妻子是中國(guó)人。這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤真是太糟糕了。"他補(bǔ)充道："我的妻子是中國(guó)人，我的孩子也是半個(gè)中國(guó)人。孩子的外祖父母住在西安，我們?cè)谥袊?guó)有著很強(qiáng)的家庭紐帶。"

Secret to men's happiness

研究:男性學(xué)業(yè)差會(huì)痛苦

Failing to match the academic achievements of your parents can be as distressing for men as a divorce, a study suggests. Oxford University researchers found that exceeding parents' educational attainment was linked to decreased psychological distress in men - but falling short was linked to an increase.?

研究顯示，對(duì)男性來(lái)說(shuō)，學(xué)業(yè)成績(jī)比不上父母的痛苦程度堪比離婚。牛津大學(xué)的研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，超過(guò)父母的學(xué)業(yè)造詣能減少男性的心理痛苦，但不及父母的學(xué)業(yè)造詣會(huì)增加心理痛苦。

Men whose educational status was at the bottom level and whose parents were at the top level were more than twice as likely to be among the 10% of most psychologically distressed people than those whose educational level matched their parents'. However women did not appear to be affected by failing to keep up with their parents.?

最痛苦人群的可能性是與父母的受教育程度持平的男性的兩倍多。心理最痛苦人群占總?cè)丝诘?0%。然而女性似乎不會(huì)受到學(xué)業(yè)成績(jī)不及父母的影響。

"The reason for this could be that men are more likely than women to attribute success and failure by pointing to their own merits, abilities and effort, rather than factors they have no control over," said study co-author Dr Alexi Gugushvili.

研究合著者亞力克西·古古什維利博士稱，個(gè)中原因可能是，男性比女性更容易把成敗歸因于個(gè)人的優(yōu)點(diǎn)、能力和付出，而不是他們無(wú)法掌控的因素。
