上週介紹梅根背景之後,今天來看梅根引發的 #Megexit 「梅根脫英🇬🇧」
以及英國女皇 Queen Elizabeth 一如往常的淡定回應吧 👇
--
✏Behind the scenes, however, being a princess wasn’t as ✏glamorous as it seemed. In a documentary that ✏aired in October 2019, Meghan said that adjusting to royal life had been hard, and that the intense scrutiny of Britain’s ✏tabloid media was 🔎taking a toll on her mental and physical health. But the biggest shock was still to come. In January 2020, after returning from a six-week stay in Canada, Harry and Meghan announced that they would be stepping away from their duties as senior royals—a move dubbed “Megxit” by the tabloid media.
不過,在螢幕之外,當王妃並不如表面上風光。在2019年十月播放的紀錄片中,梅根表示,適應王室生活一直不是件容易的事,英國八卦小報的緊迫盯人也對她的身心健康造成負擔。然而,最勁爆的事還在後頭。2020年一月,在加拿大度過六週假期回到英國後,哈利與梅根夫婦宣布退出英國王室的高級成員職責──這個宣言被八卦媒體稱為「梅根脫英」。
While there was much ✏speculation about Harry and Meghan’s motives at the time, the reasons became clear in a ✏bombshell March 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey in Montecito, California, where the couple now live in a recently purchased $14 million mansion. In the interview, Meghan said that the great pressure she was under caused her to have suicidal thoughts. “I just didn’t want to be alive anymore,” she said. Yet when she asked the palace staff about seeking treatment, she was told that it “wouldn’t be good for the institution.” Perhaps even more shocking, Meghan revealed that within the royal family, there were “concerns and conversations about how dark Archie’s skin might be when he’s born.”
雖然當時對哈利梅根此舉背後的動機有諸多臆測,但真正的理由隨著2021年三月兩夫婦向歐普拉爆料後水落石出。錄製此訪談的地點剛好位在兩夫婦最近以1400萬美元購買的豪宅,加州蒙特斯托。訪談中梅根表示,巨大壓力使她萌生自殺念頭。「我就是不想活了。」然而她向王室工作人員尋求協助時,卻僅被告知「這對王室不利。」更令人震驚的是,梅根透露,王室成員對於亞契的膚色會不會太黑有諸多疑慮。
In a statement released after the Oprah interview, Queen Elizabeth said, “The issues raised, particularly that of race, are concerning. While some ✏recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately.”
隨著歐普拉訪談秀播出之後,伊莉莎白女王二世做出回應:「他們所提出的問題令人關切,尤其是種族問題。雖然部分回憶可能彼此有所出入,但王室會認真看待並私下處理。」

[時事英文] It’s not an air purifier.
這不是空氣清淨機…
今天的時事新聞比較輕鬆一點 🙂
★★★★★★★★★★★★
《Taiwan News》
On Nov. 21, a Taiwanese Facebook user who lists himself as Jin Wu, wrote that he had purchased a PS5 from a reseller the previous day. He said that after agreeing to pick up the device in person, he called the reseller's number, and a woman answered the phone.
1. list (v.) 列於表上
2. purchase…from… 從…購賣...
3. reseller 轉售者
4. device 裝置,器械
5. in person 親自做某事
11月21日,一位自稱吳建均的臺灣臉書用戶發文表示,前一天他由轉售者處購買了一台PS5。他表示,在同意面交取貨後,他撥打了該賣家的電話,是一名女性接聽了電話。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Wu said that when he spoke to the woman about the console, she sounded like someone who does not frequently play video games. He also marveled at the remarkably low price tag for the new device, cheaper than any others he had seen.
6. game console 遊戲機
7. marvel at 驚嘆於
8. the remarkably low price tag 超低價格*
吳先生表示,當他和這位女性談論那台遊戲機,她聽起來像是不常玩電子遊戲的人。他還驚歎於這台新的遊戲裝置如此低價,比他看到的都要便宜。
*price tag (n.):(掛在商品上的)價格標籤;價格
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Despite the price, the woman seemed quite eager to sell it. When he met the owner of the console in person, he was surprised to see a middle-aged man, whom he judged to be an avid gamer.
9. eager to v. 渴望做某事
10. judge (v.) 判斷
11. an avid gamer 狂熱玩家
儘管價格如此低廉,女子似乎相當急於出售。而當他見到遊戲機的主人時,驚訝地發現原來是一名中年男子,根據判斷應該是名狂熱的遊戲玩家。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
When he began chatting with the man, Wu asked him where he had originally purchased it. The man responded that he had bought it on the e-commerce website PChome.
12. an e-commerce website 電商網站
當吳先生和該男子聊天時,問起他原來從何處購買遊戲機。對方表示是在電商網站PChome上買的。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Wu then complimented the man on his ability to find good bargains online and asked, "Did you buy two? Otherwise, why are you selling it?" The man was silent a moment before saying, "My wife wants to sell it."
13. compliment (v.) 讚賞、恭維*
14. find good bargains online 網購到物美價廉的好東西**
吳先生便誇讚對方能在網購到物美價廉的好東西,並問道:「那你很會訂欸,你是訂到兩台嗎?不然為啥要賣?」男子沉默了一下,才說:「那是我老婆要賣的......」
15. compliment someone on something: https://bit.ly/3o9YEC9
16. remain silent 保持沉默
17. bargain (n.): 便宜貨,廉價品 ; 協議,交易*
bargain (n./v.): https://bit.ly/3lu8hK9
★★★★★★★★★★★★
He wore a bitter expression on his face, and Wu was at a loss for words. It turns out that his wife can tell the difference between a PS5 and an air filter.
18. wear a bitter expression 面露苦澀
19. at a loss for words 無言以對
20. turn out 結果是(尤指出乎意料的結果)
21. tell the difference between… 可以分辨…之間的差異
22. PS5 PlayStation 5(官方縮寫:PS5)是索尼互動娛樂於2020年11月12日上市的家用電子遊樂器。
23. an air purifier 空氣清淨機*
該男子面露苦澀,而吳先生則無言以對。果然他的老婆是可以分辨出PS5和空氣清淨機的區別。
*Air purifiers and air cleaners? Both these terms are commonly used to refer to the same type of appliance (家電). An “air filter” (空氣過濾器) can be either a screen inside an air cleaner/purifier, or a standalone device.
