酷暑难耐 伦敦摩天大楼玻璃墙反光烤糊豪车  

A new London skyscraper dubbed the "Walkie-Talkie" has been blamed for reflecting light which melted parts of a car parked on a nearby street.
Martin Lindsay parked his Jaguar on Eastcheap
in the City of London
on Thursday afternoon. When he returned about o hours later
he found parts of his car - including the wing mirror and badge - had melted.
Mr Lindsay said he "could not believe" the damage. The developers have apologised and paid for repairs. The 37-storey skyscraper at 20 Fenchurch Street
which has been nicknamed the "Walkie-Talkie" because of its shape
is currently under construction.
林赛先生说他“无法相信”这场事故。大厦建筑设计者已向他道歉并支付修车费用。这座37层楼高的摩天大厦位于芬乔奇街20号，正在建设进程中，由于外表奇特，人们称这座大厦为“对讲机”。
Mr Lindsay
director of tiling pany Moderna Contracts Ltd
said: "I was walking down the road and saw a photographer taking photos and asked
'what's happening?'
"The photographer asked me 'have you seen that car? The owner won't be happy. I said: 'I am the owner. Crikey
that's awful.'"
The wing mirror
panels and Jaguar badge had all melted
Mr Lindsay said. "You can't believe something like this would happen
" he added. "They've got to do something about it."
"It could be dangerous. Imagine if the sun reflected on the wrong part of the body. On the windscreen
there was a note from the construction pany saying 'your car's buckled
could you give us a call?'"
In a joint statement
developers Land Securities and Canary Wharf said: "We are aware of concerns regarding the light reflecting from 20 Fenchurch Street and are looking into the matter.
"As a precautionary measure
the City of London has agreed to suspend three parking bays in the area which may be affected while we investigate the situation further."
Mr Lindsay said the developers had apologised and agreed to sort out the ￡946 repair costs.
