【跟着英剧练发音】The Queens Palaces E1-27

（单词翻译）

 文本：

At that time, the sovereign was the apex¹ of the world offashion and of the aristocracy, so that there wasn't this vast difference thatyou get today with the rock stars on the one hand, the influences of Hollywood,the highly-commercialised world of clothes fashion etc, all of which has sortof broken off into different compartments² these days. But in those days, theywere embodied³ in a single person, George IV, and nobody has pulled off thatachievement better.

But for every connoisseur⁴ who admired George's taste, therewere far more people outraged⁵ by his extravagance. He took no notice, and hisspending spree continued unabated.

 翻译君：

那个时候，英国是世界潮流和贵族政治的中心。也没有像今天那样有很多的不同，有摇滚巨星，有好莱坞巨大的影响，还有高度商业化的服饰等等。今天所有的一切，都分化成不同的个体。但在那个时代，除了乔治四世，别无他人，能有如此成就。

除了羡慕乔治品味的鉴赏家以外，有更多人对他的奢华感到愤慨但他毫不理会，仍然无节制的花钱。
