5月14日，香港维多利亚港展览了12天的大黄鸭因为漏气趴到水里。主办单位表示会放气收起运往船厂作详细检查，估计有望在两日内再次展出与市民见面。大黄鸭倒下了也引起众多网友调侃：“加班10多天累死了” “得了禽流感没吃板蓝根” “被愚蠢的人类气死的” 各种有趣的解释也层出不穷。 Hong Kong's favorite new resident, a giant inflatable duck, took a turn for the worse on Wednesday, looking less like an oversized lovable plaything and more like an unappetizing fried egg on the water. 香港最受欢迎的新市民——一只巨大的充气橡皮鸭在周三时表现不佳。此时的它看起来不那么像一个巨型的可爱玩具，而像漂浮在水上让人食欲全无的煎蛋。 The 16.5-meter (54 feet) inflatable sculpture mysteriously lost its mojo overnight, deflated and bobbed lifelessly in Victoria Harbour. 这个16.5米高的充气作品一夜之间神秘地如失去了魔咒似的漏气了，毫无生机地漂浮在维多利亚港中。 Organizers called an urgent duck crisis meeting early Wednesday and didn't respond to questions about the misfortunes of the duck or whether the deflation was part of regular maintenance, as reported in some local media. A tweet did appear however on the official Harbour City Twitter account, saying: "The Rubber Duck needs to freshen up. Stay tuned for its return." |
