    今天,我们用英语聊一聊吴亦凡,以及what is going on with him(发生在他身上的事).

    That indeed is a controversial topic now.这确实是一个有争议的话题。

    *a controversial topic: 有争议的话题

    controversy /ˈkɑːntrəvɜːrsi/是名词,争议。比如引发了大量的争议,可以说: lead to numerous controversies

    controversial /ˌkɑːntrəˈvɜːrʃl/ 形容词,有争议的

    *Chinese Canadian加拿大籍华人

    *ABC ( America born Chinese / American Chinese ) 美籍华人

    a former member of South Korean Chinese boy band EXO and its subgroup EXO-M

    *former member 前成员

    *subgroup 子群,子队 (sub是一个前缀,表示附属的,在……之下)

    has starred in several No. 1 box office hits like Mr. Six, Journey to the west

    *star in 主演(star v. 担任主角)

    *No. 1 box office hits 票房冠军

    *Mr. Six《老炮儿》

    *Journey to the West《西游记》

    二.What happened to Wu Yifan? 发生什么事了?

    He was detained by Beijing police on rape allegations on 31 July 2021.

    *be detained被拘留(detain /dɪˈteɪn/ v. 拘留)

    *allegation /ˌæləˈɡeɪʃn/ n. 指控

    And officially detained on 16 August , 2021, when Procuratorate of Chaoyang District of Beijing approved his arrest on suspicion of rape. 8月16日,吴亦凡正式被捕。

    *procuratorate /ˈprɒkjʊəreɪtərɪt/n. 检察院

    *approve /əˈpru:v/ v.批准,通过

    *arrest /əˈrest/ n. 逮捕

    *on suspicion of... 涉嫌……(suspicion /səˈspɪʃn/ n. 嫌疑)

    What exactly happened?具体怎么回事?

    一个叫都美竹的大学生posted allegations online on 8 July. Essentially accusing Kris Wu of a pattern of sexual assault,包括多名女性,some underage。

    *post allegations发起指控

    post 在网上发表……,比如“发朋友圈”:post on the moments online

    *assault /əˈsɔ:lt/ 侵犯

    *harassment /həˈræsmənt/ 骚扰

    *underage未成年的

    三.How did the English newspapers reported?吴亦凡事件,英文报纸怎么报道?

    USA TODAY《今日美国》:Chinese-Canadian pop star Kris Wu arrested on suspicion of rape

    The Guardian《卫报》:Pop star Kris Wu arrested in Beijing on suspicion of rape

    South China Morning Post《南华早报》:Singer Kris Wu charged with rape in China

    按照英语语法,“被批捕”“被控”应该有be动词来表示被动,比如,“Kris Wu was arrested.”但英文标题中,be动词都省略了,这是为什么呢?

    1.新闻标题必须brief with key words(短小精悍),这样才能catch the readers’ attention(吸引读者的注意),and more people want to read it.

    2.在纸媒时代,版面寸土寸金。

    所以,新闻标题里,很多冠词、系动词等常常被省略(left out),这是新闻标题的一种特色。
