The government of Zimbabwe is denying a report that President Robert Mugabe has suffered a heart attack.

津巴布韋政府否認(rèn)總統(tǒng)羅伯特•穆加貝心臟病發(fā)作的報(bào)道。

Presidential spokesman George Charamba told reporters on Thursday that the report by the website ZimEye.net was false. He said the report was published to increase the number of users, or people who visit the website, so its owners could increase their earnings.

周四,總統(tǒng)發(fā)言人喬治.查拉巴告訴記者稱,ZimEye.net網(wǎng)站的報(bào)道是虛假的。他聲稱發(fā)表該報(bào)道是為了增加用戶或者增加瀏覽該網(wǎng)站的人數(shù),網(wǎng)站擁有者以此來(lái)增加收入。

Reports that Mugabe's health is poor are common. He will be 92 next month. He leaves the country for a long vacation every January.

對(duì)于穆加貝身體欠佳的報(bào)道司空見(jiàn)慣。他下個(gè)月將滿92歲。每年一月,他要離開(kāi)津巴布韋度一個(gè)長(zhǎng)假。

The president's spokesman does not usually react to reports about the president's health. But this time, Charamba complained about frequent reports that Mugabe has died. He said "you cannot doubt that there will be a story on the president's alleged death every January."

有關(guān)總統(tǒng)健康的報(bào)道,總統(tǒng)發(fā)言人很少做出回應(yīng)。但此次,他對(duì)那些穆加貝總統(tǒng)已經(jīng)死亡的屢見(jiàn)不鮮報(bào)道表示抱怨。他說(shuō):“毫無(wú)疑問(wèn),每年一月份都會(huì)有一篇關(guān)于指控總統(tǒng)死亡的報(bào)道。”

Mugabe has ruled Zimbabwe since 1980, when the country gained independence from Britain. He is the world's oldest head of state. He has said he does not suffer from poor health. But last year he fell down stairs at Harare airport. And in September, he read the same speech to parliament that he had given a month earlier.

1980年以來(lái),當(dāng)津巴布韋脫離英國(guó)獲得獨(dú)立,就一直處于穆加貝總統(tǒng)的統(tǒng)治之下。他是世界上最年老的國(guó)家元首。他說(shuō)過(guò)他從未身體欠佳。但去年他在哈拉雷機(jī)場(chǎng)跌下樓梯。九月份,他發(fā)表了同樣的議會(huì)言論,他一個(gè)月以前已經(jīng)發(fā)表過(guò)該言論。

His long rule and his age have created concerns about what will happen to the presidency after his death.

他的長(zhǎng)期統(tǒng)治與他的年齡引起了關(guān)于在他死后,總統(tǒng)職位會(huì)發(fā)生什么變化的擔(dān)憂。

Some experts believe Senior Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa will become president. But the president's wife, Grace Mugabe, has been making political moves. She is the head of the women's membership group of the ruling ZANU-PF party.

一些專家們堅(jiān)信高級(jí)副總裁姆南加古瓦將成為總統(tǒng)。但總統(tǒng)的妻子格蕾絲·穆加貝一直在制造政治舉動(dòng)。她是執(zhí)政黨非洲國(guó)家聯(lián)盟-愛(ài)國(guó)陣線女性會(huì)員的負(fù)責(zé)人。
