贪官被罢之“vox pop(民众心声)”
[ 2006-09-26 13:43 ]
“上海市省委书记陈良宇因贪污而被罢免”的消息,经中国日报网站刊载后24小时不到,就引出网友评论50条之多。看来,反腐倡廉,深得民心、大振人心,请参看相关评论:Vox pop: Shanghai party chief sacked for graft.
这篇刊载网友评论的文章,所用标题“vox pop”可谓点睛之笔。Vox pop源于拉丁语vox populi(voice of the people),指“刊载、报道公众的评论”。因为公众的观点往往比较繁杂,vox pop(vox populi)常常指经编辑提炼后“具有代表性的观点和看法”,如:collect vox pop(收集公众舆论)。
另外,标题中的graft指“贪污、受贿”,看例句:In case of graft or serious dereliction of duty on the part of the general manager and deputy general managers, the Board of directors shall have the power to dismiss them at any time.(总经理、副总经理有营私舞弊或严重失职的,董事会有权随时将其解聘)。
