Adam Rippon AMERICAN IDOL
美国偶像 亚当·里彭
BY CHER
文/雪儿
All figure skaters are beautiful, but Adam Rippon is diferent.
所有花滑运动员都很美，亚当·里彭却美得与众不同。
He isn’t just a beautiful skater. He has humility, grace and an incredible sense of humor.
他不仅是美丽的滑冰运动员。还很谦逊、优雅，不仅如此，他还有一种惊为天人的幽默感。
You could see in the leather-harness suit he wore to the Academy Awards that he isn’t afraid to take chances.
从他在奥斯卡颁奖典礼上那身皮革背带配西装的打扮就能看出，他不怕冒险。
It wasn’t about the suit, really.
说实在的，西装并不是重点。
It was about the fact that he dares to be different in a world where being diferent always comes with a cost.
重点是，在这个标新立异总要付出代价的世界，他依然敢于标新立异。
I thought it was fabulous, of course.
当然了，我认为他这一做法简直帅到掉渣。
Adam is a skater who happens to be gay, and that represents something wonderful to young people.
亚当是滑冰运动员，碰巧还是同性恋，这对年轻人来说无疑象征着一件大好事。
When I was young, I had no role models—everyone looked like Sandra Dee and Doris Day.
在我年轻的时候，我一个榜样也没有——那时，大家都跟桑德拉·迪和多丽丝·戴差不多。
There was nobody who made me think, Oh, I could be like them.
没有人会让我觉得，啊，我也可以变成他们那样。
They represent me.
因为我从他们身上看到了我自己。
Adam shows people that if you put blood, sweat and tears into what you’re doing, you can achieve something that’s special.
亚当告诉我们，如果你为自己所做的事付出了血汗与泪水，你就能获得特别的成就。
You can be special. And I think that’s very brave.
就能与众不同。我认为这是很勇敢的。

WRITING WRONGS
书写问题
BY ASHLEY JUDD
文/阿什莉·贾德
The novelist Edith Wharton once wrote that the end is latent in the beginning.
小说家伊迪丝·华顿曾写道，开头即蕴藏着结局。
Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey’s New York Times piece on Oct. 5 and Ronan Farrow’s New Yorker revelations on Oct. 10
乔迪·坎特尔和梅根·图伊10月5日在《纽约时报》上的爆料以及罗南·法罗10月10日在《纽约客》上的爆料
spelled out the beginning of the end for many things regarding sexual harassment in the workplace,
清楚地表明关于职场性骚扰的很多问题的末日就要到了，
including Harvey Weinstein himself, nondisclosure agreements, statutes of limitations and impunity to silence.
比如哈维·温斯坦自己陷入的性骚扰问题，保密协议，诉讼时效和沉默逃过惩罚等问题。
Their devotion to capturing with precision and depth details spanning three decades of Harvey’s gross entitlement to female bodies ignited the Reckoning.
他们对精确而深入地捕捉哈维30年来下流地获取女性身体的执着引发了人们的反思。
Their phenomenal journalistic diligence, craft, care and, perhaps most saliently, ability to cultivate the trust and confidence of their sources
他们展现的非凡的，新闻工作者的那种勤奋、技巧、细心，以及最为突出的，培养给他们提供信息的线人们对他们的信任和信心的能力，
have literally transformed our society across public and private spaces.
已经实实在在地改变了我们的社会，无论是公共空间还是私人空间。
Their hard work and impeccable journalism have changed attitudes, behavior, conversations, norms, laws and policies, yielding enormous personal and public good.
他们的辛勤工作和无可挑剔的新闻报道也改变了人们的态度、行为、对话，改变了规范、法律和政策，为个人和公众都带来了巨大的好处。
Farrow, Kantor and Twohey amply demonstrate journalism’s power,
法罗、坎特尔和图伊充分展示了新闻界的力量，
igniting the individual and collective passion that has led to empowering movements such as #MeToo and Time’s Up.
激发了个人和集体的热情，正是因为有他们，才有了“我也是”和“时间到了”这样的运动。
I, for one, am grateful.
就我个人而言，我很感激。
