英国一男子失而复得价值8600万美元的彩票（英语双语阅读）

A British man hit one of the largest lotto jackpots in the country's history -- but left the golden ticket unchecked for weeks in a pile of papers in his van, according to local reports. 据当地媒体报道，一名英国男子中了该国历史上最大的彩票大奖，但他并开奖时并没有查看这张金奖券，而是把它放在了货车的一堆文件中好几个星期。 Andrew Clark, 51, only checked the ticket because his partner and her niece badgered him after they heard about a local unclaimed prize, he told Sky News. 51岁的安德鲁·克拉克向《天空新闻台》透露，他之所以查看这张彩票，是因为他老婆和老婆的侄女在听说当地有一份无人认领的奖金后，一直吵着要他查看彩票。 "Trisha kept telling me to check the tickets, and her niece Louise was also in on it once she'd heard about the unclaimed prize in the news," he said. 他说：“特丽莎一直跟我说要查看这些彩票，她的侄女路易丝在新闻中一得知这份无人认领的奖金后，立马也参与进来说服我。”

Clark, of the English town of Boston, told the news station that he relented and checked all of his lotto tickets on a recent evening. 来自英国波士顿镇的克拉克向该新闻电台透露，在最近的某个晚上，他妥协并检查了自己所有的乐透彩票。 "I finally gave in, got the bundle out of the van and started to work my way through them, methodically from the oldest to the most recent, starting with Lotto, before moving onto my EuroMillions tickets." “我终于屈服了，把那包彩票从货车里拿出来开始陆续查看，从乐透开始，有条不紊地从最旧的到最新的查看，然后是我的欧洲百万彩票。” One of those EuroMillions tickets was the big winner, giving Clark an $86 million payout. 其中一张欧洲百万彩票是大赢家，让克拉克获得了8600万美元的奖金。 "It almost feels like some magical Christmas story, the man who nearly lost $86 million!" Clark said after finding the ticket. 克拉克在找到这张彩票后表示：“这简直就像是某个神奇的圣诞故事，一个差点失去8600万美元的人！”
