Time for the shoutout.
“大喊”时间到了。
Name the longest-reigning monarch in British history?
谁是英国历史上在位时间最长的君主？
Here we go, is it (a), King Henry VIII, (b), King George III, (c), Queen Victoria, or (d), Queen Elizabeth II?
开始吧，是（a）亨利八世（b）乔治三世（c）维多利亚女王（d）伊丽莎白二世？
You`ve got three seconds. Go!
你有三秒钟时间。开始吧！
It was only yesterday that Queen Elizabeth II became Britain`s longest reigning monarch.
就在昨天，英国女王伊丽莎白二世成为在位时间最长的君主。
That`s your answer and that`s your shoutout.
这是你的答案，这就是你的“大喊”。
So, as of Wednesday, Queen Elizabeth II had reigned exactly one day longer than the previous record holder. That was her great, great grandmother, Queen Victoria.
因此，截至星期三，女王伊丽莎白二世在位时间比记录保持者—他的曾曾祖母维多利亚女王长一天。
The current monarch has been ruling for 23,227 days and counting. That is 63 years and 216 days for those of you without calculators.
这位现任君主执政时间为23227天,也就是63年零216天。
The queen`s position is mostly ceremonial. She can`t vote and she doesn`t have much law-making power. That`s held by the British parliament. But she can be consulted on legal matters, and fun fact: by law, she can drive a car as fast as she wants.
女王的地位通常是礼仪性的。她没有投票权以及太多的法律权利。那是由英国议会决定的。但她在法律事务中能参与商议。有趣的是，从法律上讲她可以随心所欲把汽车开的多快。
British Prime Minister David Cameron said Queen Elizabeth`s reign has been the golden thread running through three post-war generations. This should give you a sense of how historic that reign is.
英国首相卡梅伦戴维表示，伊丽莎白女王的统治贯穿了战后三代人。其统治应该给人们一种历史性意义。
