The bars are sardined with hungry hopefuls(Gael Greene)

酒吧里挤满了饿着肚皮却满怀希望之人(盖尔·格林尼)

We stand at Rossa’s grave not in sadness but rather in exaltation of spirit that it has been given to us to come thus into so close a communion with that brave and splendid Gael

站在罗沙的坟前，我们并不觉得悲伤，反觉振奋，因为能与这位坚毅伟大的盖尔人密切沟通而振奋。

||1: If you had the good fortune to sit next to Garret FitzGerald at dinner—wrapped round by his natural warmth and curiosity, as well as numbed by the sheer volume of Dublin-tinctured words that tumbled out of him—you might learn many dozens of mind-bogglingly arcane facts.||2:The quickest way to fly from Reykjavik to Vilnius in 1960, a skill he had honed in his first proper job as an analyst for Aer Lingus; the route of the now-defunct railway from Farranfore to Reenard via Cahersiveen, the fruit of his love of all train timetables; the relative popularity over time of his own Fine Gael party and the rival Fianna Fail in county councils the length and breadth of Ireland, derived from an obsession with opinion polls so immense that journalists were cautioned not to mention them; and the precise geographical pattern of the decline in the use of Irish between 1770 and 1870, compiled from old census volumes which he would prop on the car dashboard when being driven, on constituency visits, from place to place.

||1:如果你有幸在晚餐时坐在Garret FitzGerald旁边——置身于他天生的热情与好奇中，谈定地听着他都柏林味十足的口音在那里滔滔不绝——你也许能得知很多神秘的事实，开阔了眼界。||2:60年代从Reykjavik飞到Vilnius最快的途径；他首次在一份体面的工作中（爱尔兰航空公司的一名分析员）习得的技能；那条已经不存在的铁路——通过Cahersiveen从Farranfore到Reenard；他最喜欢的列车时刻表；共和党对那段出风头的时光和统一党称霸爱尔兰各乡镇委的时候，民意调查里那些说不清道不明的事，有些就是记者也小心地不去提及；以及根据他拜访各选区时，从各地收集到的旧的人口普查宗卷中所得出的1770到1870间爱尔兰语的使用率，下降趋势，在地图板块上的精确表现。

Ireland got its first-ever coalition government between its two historic main parties, Fianna Fail and Fine Gael . The new prime minister, Micheal Martin, replaced Leo Varadkar, who will return to the office in two years’ time if the coalition lasts that long.

爱尔兰历史上第一次由两个主要政党共和党和统一党组成联合政府。新任总理迈克尔马丁（Micheal Martin）取代了利奥·瓦拉卡尔（Leo Varadkar），如果联合政府能长时间维持，那么瓦拉卡尔将在两年后重返总理职位。

Ireland’s governing coalition of the Fine Gael and Labour parties suffered a stinging electoral defeat, dropping from a combined 113 seats to 57. The opposition Fianna Fáil party, which came second with 44 seats, vowed not to join a coalition with Fine Gael, leaving no clear direction for forming a new government.

一场激烈的选举后，由爱尔兰统一党（Fine Gael ）和工党（Labour parties ）组成的执政联盟遭遇惨败，执政联盟的议席从113个跌到57个。反对党共和党（Fianna Fáil party）得到44个议席，列位第二，但该党承诺不会与统一党联盟，这使得新政府组建的局势不明朗。

the polls suggest it could fall to third place, behind Fine Gael and the Labour Party.

民意调查显示，共和党可能会下降至第三位，落于统一党和工党之后。

The Irish election on February 25th may have delivered the predicted outcome in the shape of a new ruling coalition dominated by Fine Gael .

于2月25日举行的爱尔兰大选结果如预期一样是由FineGael主导的新执政联盟获胜。

The most likely candidate is Eamon Gilmore’s Labour Party, generally seen as Fine Gael ’s traditional partner.

最可能的候选者是埃蒙·吉尔摩（EamonGilmore）的工党，其通常被视为是统一党的传统盟友。
