玛德琳·雅娜·科贝尔·奥尔布赖特是美国政治家和外交官,1997年至2001年在比尔·克林顿总统执政期间担任美国历史上首位女国务卿。
I have to tell you, my seven-year-old granddaughter said to my daughter, her mother, 'So what's the big deal about Grandma Maddy having been Secretary of State? Only girls are Secretaries of State.' Most of her lifetime, it's true. But at the time it really was a big deal.
我要告诉你,我7岁的孙女对我的女儿和她的母亲说:“那么,马迪奶奶出任国务卿有什么大不了? 只有女孩是国务卿. '她一生的大部分时间都是如此. 但是当时确实是一个大问题.
I am often asked if, when I was secretary, I had problems with foreign men. That is not who I had problems with, because I arrived in a very large plane that said United States of America. I had more problems with the men in our own government.
人们经常问我,当我担任秘书时,我是否遇到过外国男人的问题. 那不是我遇到的问题,因为我乘坐的是说美利坚合众国的超大型飞机. 在我们自己的政府里,我遇到了更多的问题.
