英国出现"让人蒙羞"的圣诞树

According to the Daily Mail of December 1, with only a string of colored lights, a spindly trunk and some parse branches, a Christmas tree was slammed by local residents as "an embarrassment to the community" after it was placed outside the Liverton Mines Community Association's center in Liverton Mines, Teesside, UK, last week. Residents complain that the fir makes the village look cheap but the association's treasurer argued that the plant didn't look too bad but at the moment it's covered in snow。

据英国《每日邮报》12月1日报道，一棵只装饰有一串彩灯、一个细弱树干、几根稀疏树枝的圣诞树上周被栽种到了英国提兹赛德利夫弗顿矿山社区联合会中心大楼外，却被当地居民斥为“让社区蒙羞之物”。据了解，当地居民抱怨该圣诞树让村子看起来很没品位，但联合会财务主管称它并没有那么差劲，只是因为被雪覆盖遮掩了姿色罢了。
