邮寄明信片语法错误遭涂改：“学点英语吧！”
[p=28, 2, left][[b]摘要[/b]]这张明信片，画面为布宜诺斯艾利斯共和国广场的鸟瞰图，本是多年老友体贴的招呼问候。但由于明信片一路从阿根廷发往多伦多，满目的英语错误，激起了某个谁用红笔改正的念头，还草草作了注明。[/p][p=28, 2, center][attach]21025[/attach][size=4]
[/size][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]The postcard featuring an aerial view of the Plaza de la República in Buenos Aires was meant as a thoughtful gesture from a longtime friend.[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]这张明信片，画面为布宜诺斯艾利斯共和国广场的鸟瞰图，本是多年老友体贴的招呼问候。[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]
[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]But as it made its way from Argentina to Toronto, its error-laden English provoked someone to take to the text with a red pen, correcting errors and scrawling a note that read: “ps Learn English!!”[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]但由于明信片一路从阿根廷发往多伦多，满目的英语错误，激起了某个谁用红笔改正的念头，还草草作了注明，“学点英语吧！”[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]
[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]The act left Mirella Zisko stunned. The postcard had been sent to her by a former colleague, now in his 60s, who had emigrated to Canada from Argentina and learned English as a second language.[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]这一行为让米瑞拉·西斯科大为震惊。这张明信片是她昔日的同事发来的，人家现年60多，从阿根廷移民去了加拿大，英语是其第二语言。[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]
[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]Oscar’s original message – “I west thinking in you, Have a nice day” – had been marked up with red pen, much like how a teacher would tackle a student’s essay.[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]奥斯卡最初写的是“我债想你，祝你开心”，被用红笔勾出，很像老师批改学生作文那样。[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]
[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]His words had been crossed out to adjust the message. The meddler had also added their own note to the postcard – “Learn English!!” – directed at Oscar and underlined twice for emphasis.[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]这些词儿被划掉，重新做了调整。好事者还给明信片加上了评注“学英语去！”----直指奥斯卡还划了两道线以示强调。[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]
[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]While it remains unclear where exactly in the mailing process the postcard was tampered with, Zisko has filed a complaint over the incident with Canada Post. The corrections were more likely to have happened in Canada, she reasoned, than in Spanish-speaking Argentina.[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]尽管尚不清楚邮寄过程中明信片是如何惨遭毒手的，西斯科就此投诉了加拿大邮政局。比起说西班牙语的阿根廷，批改事件更可能是发生在加拿大，她如是推测。[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]
[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]A spokesperson for Canada Post said, “With many hands touching the postcard before and after it entered Canada, it is impossible to determine where and when the marking may have occurred."[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]加拿大邮政局一名发言人称，“明信片入加拿大前由那么多人经手，也无法判定到底是何时何地被批阅的。”[/size][/font][/p][p=28, 2, left][font=Arial][size=4]
