But they want it to go well.I'm excited, not just for them, but I think forthe whole country. With unprecedented access, this is the inside story of theRoyal Wedding.Good evening, everyone, and welcome to London. Injust two days' time, this city will come to a complete standstill as people allaround the world, sit at the edge of their seats .The most highly anticipated wedding of the century is about to get underway. Now everybody wants to get a glimpse of the future king of England Prince William as he marries his university sweetheart Katherine Middleton.Talk about everybody, they are expecting hundredsof thousands of people to line the Mall, as they say “the Mall” (the moderator is trying to do the British accent), here leading up toBuckingham Palace. Andover a billion people worldwide (are) expected to tune in to watch this royal extravaganza.London, a city of nearly 8 million people is gearingitself up for the big day---a spectacle which hasn't been seen in nearly 30years.Well, we think this will be the biggest event inLondon, the biggest royal event in London since 1981 when I think about 600,000 people came onto the streets.

英国某位经济学家: 英国某位经济学家: 王子大婚对于英国整体经济来说作用是消极的
如果你单单从旅游纪念品等的销 售来说,那应该是有促进作用。从整 体经济角度来考虑,则不会有太多推 动作用。由于王子大婚,英国全国放 假一天,据英国研究机构预测,全国 停产一天将使经济产出减少60亿英镑 之多。

的哥大卫:不交税凭什么花钱? 的哥大卫:不交税凭什么花钱?
大卫认为,英王室 最大的问题是不交税, 但是却养尊处优,大 肆挥霍英国纳税人的 钱。比如这次的王室 婚礼,虽然婚礼本身 的开销由王室负担, 但是真正的大头如安 保费用还是得由纳税 人 交 钱 。
对于渐行渐近的王室婚礼,英国民众可谓百感交 集,出于对英国王室不同的态度和立场,英国民众 欢喜、期待、担心、质疑等各种复杂的情绪兼而有 之。有人,特别是老年人,依然保持对王室的尊敬 和爱戴;有人,特别是年轻人,对王室漠不关心, 认为王室已经流于形式,与他们的生活毫无关系。

There was one moment of anxiety. The ring appeared to be too small. William persevered, and on it went. Within the abbey, the cheers of the crowds outside could clearly be heard. But of course from that moment, she was no longer Catherine Middleton. The Queen had opted for tradition and made William the Duke of Cambridge. And so she joined the royal family as Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge.

威廉王子和凯特·米德尔顿订婚Prince William Engaged to Kate Middleton威廉王子和凯特·米德尔顿订婚The 28-year-old heir to the throne and his fiancee will marry next year, royal aides said. Announcement of the engagement had been rumored for weeks, as palace watchers looked ahead on the royal calendar and speculated that a marriage would have to take place sometime in 2011, sandwiched between other official royal activities. Announcing the engagement now gives Buckingham Palace time to prepare for the most highly anticipated royal event since the lavish wedding of William's parents, Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana, in 1981.英国王室宣布威廉王子和交往已久的女友凯特·米德尔顿订婚。
王室人员称,这位28岁的王位继承人和他的未婚妻将在明年结婚。
订婚的消息被传了数周,王室宫务官员计划着皇室日期,推断婚礼将在2011的某天举行,安排在其他王室官方活动之间。
订婚消息的宣布使得白金汉宫有时间去准备一场最高规格的皇家活动,这将是继 1981年查尔斯王子和戴安娜王妃的世纪婚礼之后最盛大婚礼。
The marriage will end bachelorhood for William and the hopes of young women around the world who have followed his every move and been charmed by his good looks and affable manner. The prince and Middleton, who is also 28, met as students at University of St. Andrews near Edinburgh, Scotland. Their relationship has been minutely dissected in the British tabloids, which have gleefully picked on Middleton's middle-class background. With no royal or aristocratic pedigree, Middleton will be the first commoner to marry an heir to the throne in centuries.这场婚姻将结束威廉的单身生活,全世界为王子英俊的外表和温和的品行所倾倒的青年女子的幻想也将破灭。
