南非会抽菸大猩猩去世 竟活到52岁  

Charlie the Chimp
who is well known for his severe cigarette smoking habit
has finally died at the old age of 52.

南非动物园一只大猩猩因为喜欢抽菸而声名远播，日前去世，高龄52岁。
Charlie started smoking almost a decade ago
after some visitors to the zoo threw lit cigarettes to him in hopes he would follow their example and smoke them. He did
and he was hooked from that day on. Due to the partial to tobacco
he has bee quite a famous star in the zoo
attracting tens of thousands visitors to watch every year.

　　这只名叫“查理”的大猩猩多年前，因为游客丢给它一支香菸，开始爱上吞云吐雾，随后“查理”因为爱抽菸，成为动物园最有名气的动物，每年因此吸引成千上万名游客前来观看。
For years
zookeepers have attempted to break his habit
but continuous problems with tourists and locals giving him cigarettes from their packs made it difficult.

　　过去多年来，虽然园方想尽方法，让“查理”戒菸，但因为游客经常拿烟给“查理”，戒菸也没有成功。
Generally
the average lifespan for chimps is 40 years. Despite the smoking
it was not this that killed him
his keeps say. At the age of 52
he was ten years older than most chimps survive.

　　通常，大猩猩的平均寿命是40岁，动物园发言人说，他很难想象，“查理”有抽菸恶习，居然还能多活十年。
Even though he has been receiving special care
and a special diet including protein shakes
vitamin and mineral supplements
he succumbed to old age.

　　尽管他受到了特殊关爱，以及享用含有蛋白粉，维他命，特定饮食，矿物补充剂的特定饮食， 他还是老死了。
