【看英文中國郵報學英文】台北市立動物園園長金仕謙於上週一卸職退休,動物園正尋下一位接班人,為了讓民眾得知徵才消息,於4日在臉書上貼出8 位園長候選政見發表,供民眾投票,短短時間內獲得2.7萬讚,和6000多的留言和分享。
Following the retirement of the current director, Chin Shih-chien, last Monday, Taipei Zoo has launched a creative campaign to find the most suitable candidate to fill the position.
To notify potential parties of the vacancy, zoo officials posted pictures and campaign information of 8 candidates from within the zoo — all of which are animals.
In a short amount of time, the post garnered 27,000 likes and more than 6,000 shares and comments.
為因應武漢肺炎疫情,候選政見都略與病毒相關,呼籲自主隔離和勤洗手的重要。
To raise awareness of the coronavirus epidemic, the four-legged candidates’ campaign all have something to do with the virus, successfully highlighting the importance of self-quarantine and hand-washing.
其中,熱門候選人包括一號的可愛無尾熊,政見內容為:全園午睡18小時,自我隔離過了頭。
For instance, the no. 1 candidate, a cute and cuddly koala, promises let all zoo animals sleep up to 18 hours a day, before admitting that it may take self-quarantine to a new level.
四號的雲豹和七號的狐獴也有相當多的支持者,政見內容為不僅提到全園應使用「雲豹紋」口罩,喜愛抱抱的狐獴也藉機呼籲禁止大型群聚活動,請大家離彼此遠一點。
The No. 4 candidate, a clouded leopard, and the No. 7 candidate, a meerkat, are both crowd favorites. Their campaigns not only include promotions for “leopard-print” face masks, but also a ban of large gatherings which came from the meerkat, known for their love of hugging family members.
