看一看英國女王私宅都有什麼東西
A photograph showing the inside of the Queen's private sitting room at Windsor Castle recently Tweeted by Buckingham Palace on their social media account offers a rare glimpse into the monarch's personal world.
近期，白金漢宮在其社交媒體帳戶上發表了一張圖片，展示了女王在溫莎城堡私人會客室的內景，讓人們能夠撇一眼君王的個人世界。It is, in her own words, 'rather countrified'. But, as most would undoubtedly agree, it's charming all the same.
按她的話來說，這裏透着“非常鄉村的氣息”。但是，大多數人會毫無異議的表示——這個地方仍然很有吸引力。Placed on a table next to her is a distinctive clunky Sky remote control, next to a rather older version used to operate her actual television.
女王旁邊桌子上放着是一個很有特色的Sky遙控器，而不遠處還有一個相當老式的遙控器，這個纔是用來操作電視的。
Also on the glass-topped wooden table next to the Queen is what appears to be an ashtray or ornament made out of a horseshoe –presumably one of sentimental value to her –and her glasses.
也是在女王旁邊，一個上面放着一塊玻璃的木質小桌子上放着一個貌似是菸灰缸樣的東西，又或許是馬蹄鐵做的裝飾物？——想必是對女王有某種情感價值的東西——還有她的眼鏡。
Underneath the table is, remarkably, a well-thumbed leather folder with the words Television and Radio Times emblazoned on the front in faded gold lettering. Presumably her staff insert a fresh copy of the listings magazine inside for her every week.
引人注目的是，桌子下面放着一個女王經常翻看的皮文件夾，封面上寫着用金色字體紋飾的Television和Radio Times字樣。可能是女王的員工每個禮拜把最新娛樂指南雜誌的剪報放在裏面。The photograph were taken on Friday during an official visit by the New Zealand Prime Minister, John Key, who was in the country to watch his national team play in the Rugby World Cup Final.
這張照片是在週五新西蘭總理約翰·基對英進行正式訪問期間拍攝的，約翰·基來英國觀看新西蘭國家隊在此次橄欖球世界盃總決賽的比賽。Behind them is an antique writing desk, clearly used by the Queen for many decades.
他倆身後是一張古董寫字桌，很明顯女王已經用了幾十年了。On the left of it is a rather old fashioned red leather-bound calendar, displaying the month of October. Next to it are several antique glass inkwells, a brass dish and a number of elaborate letter openers.
在桌子的左邊是一本十分老式的紅色皮革日曆，上面正翻到十月份。在日曆的旁邊放着幾個古董玻璃墨水瓶、一個銅盤和幾把精緻的開信刀。As always, a photograph of the Queen's late mother - Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother –has pride of place, as it does in most of her private apartments.
就像在女王絕大多數的私人公寓一樣，一如既往的，女王將過世母親太后伊麗莎白女王的照片放在了顯眼的地方。The desk also displays a variety of ornaments, including two soldier figurines and a glass elephant.
寫字桌上還放着很多其它的裝飾物，包括兩個士兵雕像和一個玻璃大象。There is also a large china tea cup and saucer with a matching pot fashioned in the shape of a cabbage leaf. The cup is filled with fake fruit, possibly ceramic, and the pot has a Palm Sunday cross poking out of it.
上面還放着一個大的瓷器茶杯，和一個配套的時尚甘蘭葉形狀的茶托。杯子裏裝着一些裝飾的水果，很可能是陶瓷做的，茶壺表面雕刻着聖枝主日十字架圖案。The writing desk itself is topped with a glorious display of flowers including lilac roses, which she can expect to be changed each weekend.
寫字桌本身上面擺放着一些花束，有淡紫色的玫瑰，每個禮拜都定期更換。
