CNN News:伊丽莎白二世举行90岁生日庆典

The queen`s 90th birthday is greater than anyone`s super sweet 16. Britain`s Queen Elizabeth II is enjoying a series of celebrations. The one this weekend involved hundreds of horses and hundreds more musicians, dancers, performers. It`s all in honor of the United Kingdom`s longest reigning monarch. She reached that milestone last year, exceeding the reign of her great, great grandmother, Queen Victoria.

女王的90岁生日比所有人的甜蜜16岁生日还要盛大。英国女王伊丽莎白二世在举行一系列的庆祝活动。周末举行的庆祝活动中，有上千匹马匹，还有大量的音乐家、舞者和演奏家。这是为了纪念在位最长的英国君主。去年，伊丽莎白二世的在位时间就超过了她伟大的祖母维多利亚女王。

Even though her position is largely ceremonial, the queen does not have much lawmaking power which rests with Britain`s parliament. She`s a revered person around the world. What took place over the weekend is only one of the celebrations she`ll have.

尽管其享有重大的仪式，但是女王并没有太多的立法权，立法权主要由英国议会控制。伊丽莎白二世受到世界所有人的尊敬。周六举办的活动仅是其中的一次庆祝活动。

SUBTITLE: The queen`s two birthdays.

two birthdays days all the way back to George II in 1748. His real birth, it was in November, and he thought they might get cold and they might get ailed. So, I`m going to move it to June, where fingers crossed, the weather is going better.

两个的生日要追溯到1748年乔治二世。乔治二世的生日是在11月份，他认为人们会受冷挨冻。所以，他决定将生日定为六月，因为那时人开始祈祷，同时天气变暖。

So, the queen`s real birthday, 21st of April, 1926, when she was born. That celebrated with a quiet family celebration and she has her official birthday, usually second Saturday in June, and what we have is trooping the colour, big parades, big celebration, the queen in her carriage, all based in London here at Buckingham Palace.

伊丽莎白二世出生于1926年4月21日。在那一天，她会有家庭成员庆祝自己的生日，但是其官方生日在6月的第二个星期六，那一天将会举行皇家乐队阅兵仪式、大游行以及盛大的庆典活动，女王坐在马车中。

But this year, because she`s 90, she has a birthday in May as well, and that`s going to be much more fun, pop concerts, more shows. So we have three birthdays, actual birthday, the official birthday, and the fun birthday.

但是，今年，伊丽莎白二世女王90岁了，她的生日在五月，因此会有更多的乐趣，流行音乐会还有表演。因此，将会有三个生日：伊丽莎白二世女王的真实生日、官方生日以及这个有趣的生日。

And it`s not just in Britain that the queen`s birthday celebrated. It`s across the commonwealth, including in Canada, where it`s a public holiday and Australia, where it defers according to where you are.

不只是英国女王在庆祝生日，甚至整个联邦，包括加拿大还有澳大利亚。

Some people are saying she`s 90, it could be the last big birthday. But her mother did live to 101. So, hopefully, we`re going to be celebrating a big 100th birthday in 2026.

有些人说现在伊丽莎白二世已经90岁，这可能是最后一个盛大的生日了。但是她的母亲活到了101岁。所以，我们希望在2026年，我们将会为她举办盛大的100岁寿辰生日。
