The Daily Telegraph published an incomplete article online on Wednesday announcing the death of the Duke of Edinburgh as the still-alive prince prepared for his final day of public engagements.
在本周三菲利普亲王迎接公职最后一天之际，英版《每日电讯报》却在网络上发布了一篇不完整的文章，误称菲利普亲王辞世。
The piece read: “The Duke of Edinburgh, the longest-serving consort to a monarch in British history, has died at the age of 96, Buckingham Palace has announced.
该文章写道：“据白金汉宫方面消息，爱丁堡公爵辞世，享年96岁，其成为执行英王室伴侣任务最久的王室成员。”
A spokesman for the Telegraph said: “We sincerely apologise for the mistake that was made this morning, which was of course rectified immediately. We will be reviewing our publishing processes as a matter of urgency.”
《每日电讯报》的发言人表示：“今早刊文误报已经立即撤回，我们为此真诚道歉，今后我们将认真浏览和审查发布的相关报道。”
It is not the first time a newspaper has prematurely announced Prince Philip’s death. The Sun made a similar error in May when the duke announced his retirement from public engagements. The tabloid published an article, which again was swiftly removed, titled: “Prince Philip dead at 95, how did the Duke of Edinburgh die, etc etc”.
事实上，这并不是报刊媒体首次误报菲利普亲王的死亡。今年五月份菲利普宣布计划退休之际，英国《太阳报》就曾犯过类似的错误，刊登了一篇名为《爱丁堡公爵如何死亡，享年95岁》的文章，随后便迅速撤回。
During his final engagement Prince Philip will pay tribute to personnel who took part in the 1664 Global Challenge, a series of strength and endurance feats raising funds for and awareness of the Royal Marines charity.
在其任职的最后一天，菲利普亲王将会出席“1664全球挑战”慈善活动。该活动是由皇家海军陆战队员参与的一系列力量和耐力挑战，以募集善款并唤醒公众的慈善意识。
The Queen, 91, will continue her public schedule, supported by other members of the royal family.
91岁的女王将会在其他皇室成员的支持下，继续参加公共活动。
