BBC公布近70年最具影响力女性

英国12月14日公布了过去70年来，对女性处境影响最大的女性名单，英国已故首相撒切尔夫人(Margaret Thatcher)名列首位，她因钢铁般的意志而有“铁娘子”称号。英国女王未进入榜单。

When celebrating the most powerful women of the last 70 years, it may seem natural to host a celebration at Buckingham Palace: home to a Queen who has reigned for generations.

谈起为近70年来最具影响力的女性举办庆祝典礼一事，人们自然而然会想到在已经在位几个世代的英国女王的皇家居所——白金汉宫举办。

But if anyone had hoped Her Majesty might be recognised for her contribution to women's lives over her long service, they would be disappointed.

英国女王在位期间，为改善女性的生活状况做出了巨大贡献。但是如果你希望女王因此当选最具影响力女性的话，那么可能就要失望了。

The BBC Radio 4 Woman's Hour Power List, announced on Wednesday, instead recognises Beyonce, the singer, feminist provocateur Germaine Greer and a fictional character: the love-lorn Bridget Jones.

相反，本周三，歌手碧昂斯、女权主义倡导者杰曼•格里尔、和虚构人物：失恋的布里奇特•琼斯上榜。

The list of seven powerful women, selected by a judging panel, was topped by Baroness Thatcher, the late former prime minister who was recognised by the BBC for her impact on British women whether they love her or loathe her.
