奥巴马承认戒烟尚未成功(双语)

US President Barack Obama may have just made life more difficult for cigarette makers, but he is not above sneaking a smoke every now and again.
美国总统奥巴马最近让烟草商的日子不好过,而他自己仍然时不时地偷偷吞云吐雾。

Obama, who has publicly struggled to quit smoking, said he still hasn't completely kicked the habit even after signing a law this week that will likely set tough new rules for the tobacco industry.
奥巴马本周签署一项法令,可能制定新的更加严格的烟业条例,尽管如此,这位公开宣布努力戒烟的总统称,自己还没有完全改掉这个习惯。

"As a former smoker I constantly struggle with it. Have I fallen off the wagon sometimes? Yes. Am I a daily smoker, a constant smoker? No," Obama said at a news conference.
奥巴马在记者招待会上说:“作为一位前烟民,我一直在努力戒烟,是否有时也会把持不住呢?是的。但是不是天天抽,时时抽呢?当然不是了。”

"I don't do it in front of my kids, I don't do it in front of my family. I would say that I am 95 percent cured, but there are times where I mess up," he said.
他说:“我从不在孩子和家人面前吸烟,可以这样说,在95%的情况下我都不会犯烟瘾了,但我烦的时候还是想吸两口。”
