公众人物 [
gōng zhòng rén wù]
public figure
public character
- 作为一名有争议的公众人物,他毅然对付了许多带有敌意的批评。
As a controversial public figure he has breasted much hostile criticism. - 大约一周过去了也没有一位或者别的公众人物出来为灾祸的大部分责任而道歉。
Barely a week goes by without one or other public figure apologizing for a disaster of monumental proportions. - 这篇文章中只列举公众人物的第二个原因是,就像我在这个系列的第一篇里提到的一样,我的观点很大程度上是个局外人的观点。
The second reason why the list is filled with public figures is that, as I explained in the opening article in this series, my perspective is largely that of an outsider.
