安徽大學 錢潤荷 編譯

As Chinese New Chairman Xi Jinping’s wife,China’s new First Lady,one of the country’s most famous folk singers and a World Health OrganizationGoodwill Ambassador(親善大使),Peng Liyuan has long been well known.

作為中國新任主席習近平的妻子，中國新任的“第一夫人”，彭麗媛既是中國著名的民歌歌唱家，也是世界衛生組織的親善大使，長期以來她在中國家喻戶曉。

Different from herpredecessors(前任),she has become a fashion symbol around the world on her first official state visit with her husband when she wore as atrendy(時髦人物).

與前幾任第一夫人大相徑庭，她隨丈夫的首次正式國事訪問期間，以時尚形象出現,已經成為了世界的時尚象征。

People guessed that Peng would remain aslow-key(低調)as her predecessors— after all,she had chosen to avoidlarge-scale performances(大型演出)and people’s attention in recent years.Yet Peng was covered extensively by China Central Television（CCTV）and received a full-page spread in the Beijing News when she visited Moscow with Xi.

人們曾猜測彭麗媛應該會保持像她的前幾任那樣一貫的低調——畢竟近年來她已經避開了一些大型演出，以免太為引人關注。然而她還是被中央電視臺大規模報道，并且她與習近平一同出訪莫斯科的新聞在《北京新聞》占據了一整個版面。

Peng’s life story was a classicinspirational(鼓舞人心的)tale.She joined thePeople’s Liberation Army(人民解放軍)at 18 and had already been the top folk singer when she first met Xi in the south-eastern province of Fujian in 1986.She is best known for her 24 years as a singer atthe annual spring festival gala(春節聯歡晚會).

彭麗媛的人生是一部經典的勵志劇。彭麗媛18歲就加入了人民解放軍，1986年第一次在福建遇到習近平的時候，她已經是國內頂尖的民族歌唱家。她廣受人民群眾的喜愛，參演了24年的春節聯歡晚會。

“Born into poverty,she used herinnate(天生的)singing ability to leave her home town,worked hard to complete amaster’s degree(碩士學位)at China Conservatory of Music,and used hervisionary intelligence(遠見卓識)to start dating a low-levelcadre(干部).This is why so many people admire her.”

“她出身貧寒，憑借著與生俱來的歌唱天賦走出家鄉，通過努力取得了中央音樂學院的碩士學位，又有遠見卓識地和一個基層干部走到了一起。這就是這么多人崇拜她的原因。”

When she got off from her private plane in the first official visit to Moscow,Peng,chose anelegant(優雅的)black coat andladylike handbag(女士提包)by Chinese fashion label“Exception”,teamed with(搭配；合作)her fresh-faced make-up andunderstated(低調的)accessories(首飾).Images of Peng stepping off a plane arm-in-arm with her husband,President Xi Jinping,have spread widely on the Internet.Her styleis termed(被稱作)by Internet fans as the“Liyuan style”.

在飛機抵達外訪的第一站莫斯科時，彭麗媛身著一件優雅的黑色外套，手上提著的是中國時尚品牌“例外”生產的女士提包,搭配清新妝容以及低調樸素的首飾。她與丈夫國家主席習近平手挽手走下飛機的圖片在網絡上廣為流傳，網上的粉絲們稱她的著裝風格為“麗媛style”。

The People’s Liberation Army singer is often compared to Carla Bruni Sarkozy,Michelle Obama,and even Kate Middleton.She is acharismatic(有魅力的)performer,trendsetter and dash of colour in the political world.

這位人民解放軍歌唱家現在經常被拿來與布魯尼（法國前總統薩科齊的夫人）、米歇爾·奧巴馬（美國總統奧巴馬的夫人），甚至是凱特王妃（英國威廉王子的王妃）相比較，她是一個魅力超凡的演唱家，潮流引領者，也是政治世界中的一抹鮮明的亮色。

Renmin University journalism professor Zhong Xin believes there are high expectations that Peng will help her husbandconvey(表達;傳輸)a friendly image of China.

中國人民大學新聞學院教授鐘欣認為，人們對彭麗媛可以幫助習近平主席傳遞友好中國的形象有著很高的期望。

“Mrs.Peng is beautiful and popular and because this is the first time she will beunveiled(公開的)in her new public role,she will have a good influence,”she said,explaining that the new First Lady will not only show a positive image of herself,but the president and theentire(整個)country.Peng is expected toengage in(參加)some public activities with other first ladies.

她說：“彭麗媛女士非常漂亮，非常受歡迎，這次她第一次以新的公眾角色出現在人們面前，會展現非常好的影響力。”她認為這位中國新任第一夫人不僅會展示自己的正面形象，也會對主席和整個中國的形象起到非常積極的作用。據悉彭麗媛還將其他國家的第一夫人們一起參與到公共活動中來。
