陈冠希英文道歉语法讲究被当考研英语教材

有网友说，陈冠希和阿娇的不同回应态度，完全可以当作商学院的“公关危机处理方法”一科的正反面典型案例来使用。而陈冠希的那段全英文道歉陈述也成了英语学习爱好者的“教材”，因为这篇陈述稿从语法到词汇都真的很讲究，很像是一批不但精通英语，还对大众心理和舆论可能流向的方向了然在心的幕后人士撰写的。最近，国内一家知名英语考试学习机构很应景地深度剖析了这段道歉陈述。发表人对这段陈述的总体评价是：“用词准确地道，词汇难度较高，包含了50多个考研和雅思核心词汇，经过改编后完全可以成为一篇高质量的考研完形填空，或雅思阅读理解。” 这个评价无疑很高，因为大家公认考研英语考试是“国内最变态的英语考试”，而雅思的阅读理解题目又一向刁钻。这个英语机构还对陈冠希本人做了评价：“这个小子虽然猥琐，但是英文用词的难度达到了考研英语的要求，如果参加雅思考试估计八分以上不成问题。”(可是要知道，陈冠希本人就是个加拿大土生土长的孩子啊，他有必要参加雅思吗？) 除了总体评价，这家机构还拿出了其一贯秉持的“在绝望中寻找希望”的精神，把这段陈述当作阅读材料分析，并逐字逐句地进行了“核心词汇解析”。如果你是个在考研旅程中上下求索的大四学生，如果你是在托福雅思路上摸爬滚打的出国梦持有者，或者哪怕你只是个普普通通的英语学习爱好者，这段非常有专业精神的解析也实在是你学习的好帮手，不得不看。另据中新网3月4日电 “今天我们要来听陈冠希怎么‘say sorry’。”台湾辅仁大学英语听讲课以香港艺人陈冠希为“欲照事件”所发表的道歉声明作为上课内容。台湾东吴大学英文系也让学生练习翻译声明稿，搭上“冠希热潮”的教材让学生直呼：“太酷了！” 据台湾《联合报》报道，日前陈冠希在道歉记者会上，全程以英语发音的声明，口音标准、字句清楚，就曾引来网友调侃：讲得太好了，可以考虑当英语教材。当辅仁大学英语听讲课老师一宣布上课内容，学生除了兴奋，还多了窃窃私语。修课的辅仁大学学生表示，知道要用陈冠希的道歉信来上课，“兴趣就来了。”不过学生也怀疑老师想顺便进行“道德劝说”。老师则澄清，选定教材纯粹针对语言，与照片事件无关。老师表示，当初看完陈冠希道歉记者会，觉得声明稿的用词、文法约高中程度，学生容易理解，加上陈冠希“讲得很慢、诚意十足、口音又好”，是个很适合学习英语的教材。因此将内容录音，带到课堂上让学生练习听写。东吴大学英文系也在翻译与习作课堂上，要求学生将声明进行汉译英，再共同讨论陈冠希如何用词。有些学生自创英文单字，把香港人“people in Hong Kong”翻成“Hong Kongnese”，引起爆笑。东吴大学英文系学生说，声明稿用词正经，有些单词颇耐人寻味，很符合陈冠希目前“不太光荣”的立场。例如陈冠希想得到香港人的“谅解”，用的是做错事时低姿态的“forgiveness(原谅)”，而不是“understanding(理解)。”

中英文对照： Today I have come back to Hong Kong to stand before you and account for myself. I have never escaped from my responsibility. During the past few weeks, I have been with my mother and my family and my loved ones to show support and care and at the same time to have them support and care for me. I admit that most of the photos being circulated on the Internet were taken by me. But these photos are very private and have not been shown to people and are never intended to be shown to anyone. These photos were stolen from me illegally and distributed without my consent. There is no doubt whoever obtained these photos have them uploaded on the Internet with malicious and deliberate intent. This matter has deteriorated to theextent that society as a whole has been affected by this. In this regard, I am deeply saddened. I would like now to apologize to all the people for all the suffering that has been caused and the problems that have arisen from this. I would like to apologize to all the ladies and to all their families for any harm or hurt that they have been feeling. I am sorry. I would like to also apologize to my mother and my father for the pain and suffering I have caused them during the past few weeks. Most importantly, I would like to say sorry to all the people of Hong Kong. I give my apology sincerely to you all, unreservedly and with my heart. I know young people in Hong Kong look up to many figures in our society. And in this regard, I have failed. I failed as a role model. However, I wish this matter will teach everyone a lesson. To all the young people in our community, let this be a lesson for you all. This is not an example to be set for you. During my time away, I have made an important decision. I will whole-heartedly fulfill all commitments that I have to date. But after that, I decided to step away from the Hong Kong entertainment industry. I have decided to do this to give myself an opportunity to heal myself and to search my soul. I will dedicate my time to charity and community work within the next few months. I will be away from Hong Kong entertainment industry indefinitely. There is no time frame. I have been assisting the police since the first day the photos were published and I will continue to assist them. After this press con., I have obligation to help them with their investigation and hope that this case can end soon as everyone I think has the same wish. I would like to use this opportunity to thank the police for their hard work on this case. Thank you. I believe everyone’s priority now (and) my priority now is to stop the suffering and pain, for not letting this…we do not want to let this situation become more out of control. We need to protect all the innocents and all the young from matters like this. In this regard, I have instructed my lawyers to do everything possible within the law to protect all the innocents, victims of this case. I believe that a press statement is being issued as we speak on what my lawyers have advised me to do. Lastly, I would like to thank everyone for coming here today and listening to what I have to say. I would like to also apologize once again to all the ladies and their families, my family and to everyone in Hong Kong and everyone in our society. I am deeply saddened by this. And I apologize to everyone (who) has to go through this. I would like to also thank you for giving me this opportunity to say what I have wanted to say all along in my heart. I hope, after today, I can have your forgiveness. With regard to this case, with everything, everything that has happened, I am deeply sorry. I hope you all accept my apology and give me a chance. Thank you. 　我回到香港，独自面对这一起，我从来没有想过逃避，我的家人始终和我在一起，他们支持和帮助我。　　我承认这次事件中的大多数照片都是我拍的，但是它们都是在很隐私的情况下拍摄的，有人非法从我这里窃取了这些照片，没有经过我的同意，并在互联网上恶意传播，造成恶劣的影响，我非常遗憾。　　我诚挚地表达我的歉意，向所有人，向相关的女士和她们的家人，在这件事中受到的伤害。我向我的家人道歉，我向父母道歉，最重要的是，我要向全香港的人民道歉，我衷心地表达我的歉意。　　我知道这个时代的年轻人崇拜偶像，但我不是一个应该被崇拜的人，我不是正面的榜样，我希望这次的事件可以教育大家。　　在完成现在的工作之后，我将退出娱乐圈，我将会在最近几个月的时间里做一系列的慈善的工作，医治自己的伤口和灵魂，然后我将永远的离开。　　我希望这一切可以能尽快的结束，谢谢警方这段时间所做的一切，我相信当务之急是尽快停止现在的一切，和它造成的一切伤害。不要进一步失控，不要让更多的年轻人受到伤害。　　我要求我的律师在法律允许的情况下可以帮助年轻人，我会发放今天的新闻稿。我要谢谢你们可以到这里听我的解释。　　最后我要再次向被牵扯到这次事件中的女士道歉，向她们的亲属道歉，向我的家人道歉，向全香港的人民道歉，希望将来可以得到你们的宽恕。
