進入《中英對照讀新聞》Australian senator’s advice：’Always wear clean underwear’澳洲參議員的忠告：永遠都要穿乾淨內衣褲
◎羅彥傑
A senior Australian Senator who was handcuffed in his underpants to a pole during a drunken night in a Russian strip club, said he learned from the experience to "always wear clean underwear."
一名資深澳洲參議員晚上在俄羅斯脫衣舞俱樂部買醉狂歡後，被人用手銬銬在鋼管上，全身僅著內褲。該名參議員聲稱，他從這次經驗中學到，「永遠都要穿乾淨內衣褲」。
Senator Nigel Scullion said he enjoyed his night out in 1998 in St. Petersburg where, as a professional fisherman, he led an Australian delegation at a global fishing conference.
參議員史庫里恩說，1998年那一夜，他在聖彼得堡玩得很盡興。他是以專業漁民的身分，率領澳洲代表團參加在當地的國際漁業會議。
The escapade was first reported in Australian newspapers Tuesday, a week after the 51-year-old married senator was elected deputy leader of the opposition National party.
這齣惡作劇最先在週二被澳洲報紙所披露，也就是在這位51歲的已婚參議員當選反對黨國家黨的副黨魁的一週之後。
News media reported Scullion struggled to break free from the pole as a fight broke out between Russian sailors and other patrons. He fled the club partially clothed.
新聞媒體報導說，史庫里恩使盡力氣從鋼管上掙脫，因為俄國水手與其他顧客爆發鬥毆。他衣衫不整地逃離俱樂部。
"Everybody has a colourful past," said Scullion, adding he is not ashamed of his behaviour.
「每個人都有多采多姿的過去，」史庫里恩說，強調他不為自己的行為感到慚愧。
