加拿大女孩生日中彩票_英语新闻

  A Canadian teenager has struck the jackpot after buying her first lottery ticket to mark her 18th birthday.

  一位加拿大青少年在购买她有生以来第一张彩票以纪念她的18岁生日,结果中了头彩。

  Charlie Lagarde, from the province of Quebec, bought the scratch ticket along with a bottle of champagne to celebrate turning 18 on 14 March.

  3月14日,来自魁北克省的Charlie Lagarde购买了一张刮刮卡彩票和一瓶香槟,以庆祝18岁生日。

  She won, and had the choice between taking a CAD 1m lump sum or earning 1,000 a week for life.

  她中奖了,并且可以选择一次性领取100万加元的总额或者终身领取每周1000加元。

  After consulting with a financial adviser, the young winner opted for the $1,000 annuity because it is not taxed.

  在咨询财务顾问之后,这位年轻的赢家选择了终身领取1,000元的选项,因为这不征税。

  "It’s without taxes so it’s equivalent to a salary of more than 100,000 a year, so it’s a great start in life for that young lady," Patrice Lavoie, a spokesman for the lottery corporation, told the Canadian Press.

  “这是免税的,所以相当于每年超过10万加元的薪水,所以这对年轻女士来说是一个很好的开始,”彩票公司发言人Patrice Lavoie告诉加拿大媒体。

  "That was her first lottery ticket ever and she fell upon a winning ticket."

  “她的第一张彩票就中奖了。”

  She says she wants to use the money to travel and put it towards her education.

  "I want to study photography. One of my dreams would be to work for National Geographic," she told Loto Quebec.

  “我想学习摄影,我的一个梦想是为国家地理工作,”她告诉彩票公司Loto Quebec。
