看没看过女人穿高跟鞋赛跑?也算一世界奇闻吧!上周六,俄罗斯圣彼得堡有100名“高跟鞋”选手进行了激烈的短跑比赛,参赛选手所穿高跟鞋的鞋跟不得低于9厘米,比赛的奖品是一张价值5万卢布(约合2000美元)的购物券。
Women compete in a high-heel sprint1 in St.Petersburg July 21, 2007. Some 100 women took part in the race wearing high-heeled shoes with a required minimum height of 9 centimetres (3.5 inches) to compete for a shopping voucher2 worth 50,000 roubles (about $2,000).
由图片说明可知,“购物券”相应的英文表达为“shopping voucher”。
“Voucher”在此指“代替现金的票券”,如:a gift voucher(礼券)。
