55、学英语,看世界:威尔士柯基
Cuteness could and should be measured in units of Corgi puppies, because, well, look at them.
可爱度可以而且应该以柯基幼犬为单位来衡量,因为,好吧,看看它们。

Welsh for dwarfed(矮小的) dog, Corgis come in two equally adorable variations: the Pembroke and the Cardigan.
Corgi(柯基)在威尔士语中表示矮小的狗,柯基犬有两个同样可爱的变种:彭布罗克犬和卡迪根犬。
While the slightly larger and more colorful Cardigans is not without its fans, it's the Pembroke that tends to win the popular vote.
卡迪根犬稍大,颜色更丰富些,它们并非没有粉丝,但彭布罗克犬往往赢得了大众的投票。
The Pembroke has been a favorite of Queen Elizabeth II since she received a Corgi named Susan for her eighteenth birthday.
自从英国女王伊丽莎白二世在18岁生日时收到一条名叫苏珊的威尔士矮脚狗,这条彭布罗克犬就一直是她的最爱。

In addition to being cute as a button from birth right through their golden years(退休时期), the breed is a subject of rather endearing folklore(民间传说).
除了从出生到它们的退休时期都十分可爱之外,威尔士矮脚狗还是一个相当可爱的民间传说的主题。
According to legend, Corgis were the traditional steeds of woodland fairies, and were eventually introduced to humans as a gift.
据传说,威尔士矮脚狗是山林仙女传统的坐骑,最终作为礼物被引入人间。
