讀《FT·金融時報》學英語：撲朔迷離：金正男之死
作為長子的金正男，原本也是繼承人候選人之一，卻因一次假護照出游失去寵愛，自此之后，他旅居國外，妻子孩子居住在中國澳門?！都~約時報》曾這樣報道他與朝鮮權力中心的關系：
When North Korea held a state funeral for its leader, Kim Jong-il, in 2011, one son was conspicuously absent.
2011年，朝鮮方面為其領導人金正日舉行國葬，一個兒子沒有出席葬禮，引人注意。
The absence of Kim Jong-nam—the eldest son of the family, who was bound by Korean tradition to preside over the funeral—was all the evidence outside analysts needed to see how isolated he had become from the center of power in North Korea, the world's most secretive regime.
按照韓國傳統(tǒng)，金家的長子金正男應該來主持這場葬禮，但他卻沒有出現(xiàn)，外界的分析人士僅憑這一個證據就能看出金正男被隔離在朝鮮——世界上最神秘的政權的權力中心之外。
Never fully accepted by his family, sidelined by his powerful stepmother and haunted by fears of assassins, Mr.Kim lived much of his life wandering abroad, in Moscow, Geneva, Beijing, Paris and Macau, the Chinese gambling enclave.
金正男從未被自己的家庭完全接受，大權在握的繼母故意孤立他，他每天擔心受怕，害怕遭到暗殺，于是他的一生大部分時間在國外度過，曾住在莫斯科、日內瓦、北京、巴黎，以及中國的賭博王國澳門。
金正男之死
2017年2月13日，金正男于馬來西亞機場身亡。
消息傳出之后，一時間猜測頻出，死因已經有了多種說法：毒針、濕布捂臉、液體；真正的幕后黑手也撲朔迷離：韓國媒體暗示真兇即為其弟弟，金正恩。路透社又援引美國政府消息人士稱，美國堅信此事是朝鮮特工所為。英國《金融時報》報道：金正男曾給金正恩寫信求饒命。
Kim Jong Un's brother, who was killed in Malaysia on Monday, begged the North Korean leader to spare his life after escaping an earlier assassination attempt, the head of South Korean intelligence said on Wednesday.
韓國情報機構負責人周三表示，金正恩(Kim Jong Un)的同父異母長兄、周一在馬來西亞吉隆坡機場遇襲身亡的金正男(Kim Jong Nam)在逃過先前的一次暗殺后，曾乞求朝鮮領導人放他一條生路。
Kim Jong Nam wrote to the supreme leader in 2012 to ask him to spare his life and those of his family, Lee Byung-ho, director of the National Intelligence Service, told lawmakers in Seoul.Mr.Lee said Pyongyang had been attempting to kill the elder Kim, who was once seen as the heir-apparent to the North Korean leadership, for five years.
韓國國家情報院(NIS)院長李炳浩(Lee Byung-ho)在首爾向韓國議員們作簡報時表示，金正男曾在2012年致函朝鮮最高領袖，哀求金正恩饒了他和他的家人。李炳浩表示，平壤方面五年來一直試圖除掉一度被視為繼承人的金正男。
“If it was necessary for him to remove his brother, it implies Kim Jong Un worries about the possibility of elites waging a campaign to replace him,” said Kim Jaechun, a professor at Sogang University in Seoul.“Particularly because Kim Jong Nam was older and age is very important in Korean culture.”
“如果說他有必要鏟除自己的兄長，那意味著金正恩擔心精英們發(fā)動一場運動來取代他的可能性，”首爾西江大學(Sogang University)教授金宰春(Kim Jae-chun)表示。“特別是因為金正男是兄長，年齡在朝鮮文化中是非常重要的。”
North Korean officials, in a black limousine bearing their country's flag, arrived at the Kuala Lumpur hospital where the examination was being carried out on Wednesday afternoon amid speculation that Pyongyang was attempting to block any investigation.
周三下午，朝鮮官員乘坐一輛掛著該國國旗的黑色豪華轎車抵達進行驗尸的吉隆坡醫(yī)院，外界猜測平壤方面企圖阻擾調查。
根據馬來西亞機場的監(jiān)控錄像，吉隆坡警方現(xiàn)已逮捕三名犯罪嫌疑人，其中兩名女性，分別持印度尼西亞護照和越南護照，還有一名馬來西亞男性。
Kuala Lumpur police yesterday made a third arrest as they hunted for Kim Jong Nam's killers.
正在追捕刺殺金正男(Kim Jong-nam)殺手的吉隆坡警方昨日逮捕了第三名嫌犯。
Siti Aishah, 25, who was carrying an Indonesian passport, had been apprehended on the basis of footage from closed-circuit television, police said.
警方表示此人名為西蒂·艾莎(Siti Aishah)，25歲，持印度尼西亞護照，警方是根據閉路電視的錄像畫面將其逮捕的。
Her Malaysian boyfriend, Muhammad Farid bin Jalaluddin, 26, was remanded in custody on Wednesday, when a 28-year-old woman named as Doan Thi Huong, who holds a Vietnamese passport, was also detained.
她的馬來西亞男友穆罕默德·法里德·本·賈拉勒丁(Muhammad Farid bin Jalaluddin)，26歲，于周三被拘留，同日落網的還有一名持越南護照的28歲女子Doan Thi Huong。
仿佛在刻意逗我笑？
CNN在報道此事時，對被捕嫌疑人的穿著做了著重報道，LOL有何深意？
One of two women detained in connection with the apparent lethal poisoning of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's half brother was seen on airport surveillance video wearing a shirt with the letters “LOL” emblazoned across the front.
朝鮮領導人金正恩同父異母的哥哥被人下毒致命身亡，與此案有關的兩名女性被捕。機場監(jiān)控錄像顯示，其中一名女子穿著印有“LOL”字樣的T恤衫。
The acronym, popular with social media and smartphone users, stands for “laugh out loud.”
這個縮略詞，是流行的網絡用語，常用于社交媒體和智能手機用戶間，意思是“大聲笑”（laugh out loud）。
