Spanish town vote pets Same Rights as Humans
西班牙一小镇通过公投赋予宠物“人权”
Animal lovers recently celebrated the news that a landmark[有重大意义的] step has been taken by the residents[居民] of a small Spanish town， recognising cats and dogs as “non-human residents.”
It may only have a population of 330 residents， but the town of Trigueros del Valle voted unanimously[一致地] to define dogs and cats as “non-human residents”， giving them rights similar to men and women. Under the new act[法案]， the town has banned “any action that causes the mutilation[残害] or death of a non-human resident.”
The mayor said： “Dogs and cats have been living among us for over 1，000 years. The mayor must represent not just the human residents but must also be here for the others.”
西班牙一个约三百三十人的小镇日前通过公投赋予了猫、狗等宠物跟人类同样的权益，并将其列为“非人类居民”，让它们成为该镇“镇民”。该法案共13条条文，包括“所有居民生而平等，并拥有相同的权益”、“居民不管是否为人类，都应被尊重”、“严禁任何导致非人类居民伤残或死亡的行为”、“不得为人类一己之悦利用非人类居民”等。在新法案的指导下，该镇已经禁止任何导致“非人类居民”伤残或死亡的活动。而在西班牙风行的斗牛运动和其他流血性运动也将被有效禁止。这确实是人类文明的一大进步。但是我想知道，如果一位狗镇民咬了另一位猫镇民，是不是那条狗就要被拉去坐牢？毕竟猫镇民的人身权利受到了侵犯不是？
Meet America’s Youngest Mayor—3-Year-Old James Tufts
三岁男童成全美最年轻镇长
A three-year-old James Tufts has become America’s youngest mayor following a successful campaign on Sunday.
Adorable James Tufts followed in his sixyear-old brother Robert’s footsteps， who served two terms in the ceremonial[仪式的，正式的] position in Dorset， Minnesota， aged four. James spent election day chatting with voters and wooed[争取] the tiny town of 22 residents with the promise of ice cream if he won.
The boy’s mum Emma， a food service director， said： “We are proud of the hard work they both have put into being and becoming mayor. The discipline[行为准则] they have when all they want to do is be kids and people are asking
你三岁的时候在干嘛？反正三岁的我就是个熊孩子，成天傻乐疯玩。但有一个名叫詹姆斯·塔夫茨的三岁小男孩当上了美国明尼苏达州多赛特镇的镇长！比起来，我们的三岁简直弱爆了好不好。不过人家是有家族传统的，上两任镇长是詹姆斯六岁的哥哥。不过这个小镇只有22个居民，选镇长靠抽签，付一美元就能参选。哥哥当年靠抓阄当选，而詹姆斯则承诺，如果赢了就请大家吃冰淇淋（妈妈是食品供应商），然后就当选了。仔细想想，22个居民，起码有四票（20%）已经在他家了，剩下的估计都是亲戚，当选是理所当然的事，更何况有人拒绝得了冰淇淋的诱惑吗？至于镇长的职责嘛，就是好好长大，有人索要签名时停下手头的工作给对方签名。被萌到！脑补一下总统候选人对选民说：“我请你们吃冰淇淋，你们选我当总统好不好？”画面太美好了，我好想看一看。
UK Singer Faints Wearing Extra Clothes to Avoid Luggage Fe
为省托运费，英一歌手套上19件衣物登机致中暑虚脱
A member of a boyband who wanted to avoid an excess luggage[超重行李] fee passed out[失去知觉] on board an easy Jet flight， after wearing all his clothes so he didn’t have to pay a ￡45 sub-charge.
James McElvar thought he was having a heart attack when he lost consciousness[意识] at 37，000 feet flying from London to Glasgow. Little did he know he’d passed out from heat exhaustion[中暑虚脱]—having dressed himself in six T-shirts， four jumpers[针织套衫]， three pairs of jeans， two pairs of jogging bottoms[慢跑裤]， a pair of jackets and two hats.
“I felt it was my only option[选择] to put on everything，” James told MailOnline. He started undressing as the plane was taking off， but his body temperature had already soared[猛增] to dangerous levels.
是这样的，有一个boyband（注意，是boyband哦）成员坐飞机时，因为行李超重需要多付45英镑（约434人民币），小哥不乐意了，一不做二不休索性把衣物都套身上了。六件T恤、四件套头衫、两件夹克、三条牛仔裤、两条慢跑裤和两顶帽子上身的小哥表示滋味太酸爽了，是生命不能承受的厚度和熱度。然后这个小帅哥就在飞机上中暑晕倒了，一下飞机就被紧急送医。新闻出来后，网友的评论异常精彩：“他长成这个样子干什么都是对的！”“又帅又会过日子，我很欣赏这样的小伙子。”“道理我都懂，可为啥他穿那么多还那么瘦？”“穿这么多还比我瘦，别拦我，我想静静”“45磅……换算成人民币……嗯！换我我也这么干，呵呵。”“白天不懂夜的黑，穷人的世界你不懂，我们为了多省一点钱就是这么拼！”如果我遇到同样的情况估计也会这么干，没办法，穷人就是这么倔强。不过我会先干了一瓶藿香正气液。
