Farewell to Chibi Maruko-chan
樱桃小丸子迎来大结局
Classic manga series "Chibi Maruko-chan", authored by late Momoko Sakura, issued its last volume on Christmas Day. "Chibi Maruko-chan" was first published in 1986 in manga magazine Ribon. In August, the series suffered a major setback after its author and illustrator, Momoko Sakura, died of breast cancer.
已故作家樱桃子的经典漫画系列《樱桃小丸子》在圣诞节发行最终卷。1986年,《樱桃小丸子》在漫画杂志《Ribon》上首次亮相。今年8月,《樱桃小丸子》作者及漫画家樱桃子因乳腺癌去世,该漫画系列遭遇重大挫折。
The story of the nine-year-old Maruko was first brought to Chinese readers in the 1990s, during which time China had imported quite a number of Japanese animation and manga series, such as "Doraemon", "Slam Dunk", "Sailor Moon", "Saint Seiya" and "Detective Conan". These series have accompanied the childhood of every millennial born in the 1980s and 1990s.
上世纪90年代,这部讲述9岁女孩小丸子的故事的漫画首次进入中国读者的视野,与此同时,我国还引进了《哆啦A梦》、《灌篮高手》、《美少女战士》、《圣斗士星矢》、《名侦探柯南》等多部日本动漫系列。这些动漫陪伴每一个出生于上世纪八九十年代的"千禧一代"度过了童年时光。
Chinese Santa hits internet
中国版圣诞老人走红
"We wish you a merry Christmas" with pictures of Elvis Tsui seems to be the latest trend among Chinese netizens during this year's Christmas. Born in 1961, Hong Kong veteran actor Elvis Tsui has become the latest internet icon thanks to the characters he played in 1990s comedy movies "Royal Tramp" and "Hail the Judge", where he looked a bit similar to Santa Claus, with a red hat and white beard.
徐锦江的照片配文"祝你圣诞快乐"似乎在国内网友中成为了今年圣诞节的最新潮流。徐锦江出生于1961年,是香港资深演员。由于在上世纪90年代的喜剧电影《鹿鼎记》和《九品芝麻官》中饰演的角色头戴红帽、脸蓄白胡,看起来有点类似圣诞老人,他成为最新网红。
Reputed as China's Santa Claus, Tsui was a popular search Monday on Sina Weibo, and his images have been adapted into micro videos, gifs and emojis at very short notice. Some clever business minds have produced tailor-made products on China's e-commerce platform, Taobao. In response to the enthusiasm shown by online users, the 57-year-old wrote on his official Weibo account, "It's Christmas and the old man with a red hat and white beard is bringing you his best wishes!"
24日,被誉为"中国圣诞老人"的徐锦江成为新浪微博的热搜,其照片在很短的时间内被改编成微视频、动图和表情。一些精明的商家已在国内的电商平台淘宝上生产了相关定制产品。为回应网友的热情,现年57岁的徐锦江在他的官方微博账户上写道:"圣诞节,红帽子和白胡子的老人给您们带来了最美好的祝愿!"

A blue paper released on Tuesday by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences says that nearly 30% of young people in China have experienced cyber bullying. According to the paper, around three-quarters of the respondents to a survey reported being the target of insulting words or sarcasm, and around half had been sent malicious images or threatening words.

The research showed that young people who don't live with their parents were more likely to be targets of bullying. More than 60% of young people chose to ignore abuse they receive online, and less than 10% report it to their parents or friends.

语速这样好,对于初学者有帮助
你们事真多...坚持听就完事了
我觉得太慢了,慢到窒息,原来的英音小姐姐挺好的
1332026udko 回复 @螺旋的YOLO: 自己调倍数,尊重每一位播音员
这是英国本土人读的
螺旋的YOLO 回复 @三石英语学习: 并不是,这个口音不是英音
真是事多,你好好听不行啊,真是的,自己读的什么样还要求那的,真是害臊的慌
嫌慢就加速播,嫌快就减速播,功能都在这儿了,听就是了!打卡~
说奇怪的人是觉得以后和外国人打交道的时候他们都会说一口纯正的英式播音腔吗?更何况这个已经是专业的播音员了
我觉得这个读的怪怪的,要不还是换回之前那个吧
太慢 且语气做作
mmprelax 回复 @Mandy_Yang_: 语气做作? 个人有个人的讲话习惯而已,什么样的人说什么样的话,你是什么样的人相比大家都一目了然了, 语速慢你可以调语速,语气做作麻烦你出门左转,被施舍的人还嫌馒头冷热?
大家就不能谦虚一点吗?慢的话自己倍速啊!新闻联播也有快的有慢的,我就没听到那么多酸话。当真有的人总是觉得英语可以给他带来优越感一样。
听友375812167 回复 @Everglowing: 就是就是,都爱显摆,听就完事了。
