  She may only be little, but Hannah Robertson has a lot of big opinions - and an even bigger voice.

  小姑娘汉娜-罗伯森虽然年纪很小,但她有很多自己的主见,也会勇敢地说出自己的想法。

  The nine-year-old showed it off at a McDonald"s shareholdersmeeting in Oak Brook, Illinois on Thursday morning when she cornered the fast-food chain's CEO, Don Thompson.

  周四上午,九岁的汉娜出现在伊利诺州橡溪举行的麦当劳股东大会上,在大会上她正面炮轰了这家著名快餐巨头的首席执行官唐·汤普森。

  'Mr. Thompson, don't you want kids to be healthy so they can live a long and healthy life?' she asked during the meeting's question and answer session.

  在大会上的问答环节中,汉娜问道:“汤普森先生,难道你不想让孩子们可以吃得很健康,过长寿健康的生活么?”

  Hannah has been well schooled in healthy eating; her mother, Kia, is a children's nutritionalactivist and creator of 'Today I Ate a Rainbow' - a game encouraging children to eat different fruits.

  汉娜在健康饮食方面受到了非常好的教育:她的母亲起亚是一位儿童营养倡导主义者,制作过一个名叫“今天我吃了彩虹” 鼓励孩子们吃不同水果的游戏。

  'I don't think it's fair when big companies try to trick kids into eating food. It isn't fair that so many kids my age are getting sick,' she said, suggesting the company targets children with its advertising.

  她在发言中表示:“我认为大公司试图欺骗孩子们吃这些垃圾食品非常不公平。在我这个年纪的孩子很多都生病了,真的不公平。” 她认为麦当劳利用广告向目标对象孩子们推销食品。

  But Thompson did not falterwith his response. 'We don't sell junk food,' he said, USA Today reporter. 'My kids also eat McDonald's.'

  根据今日美国的报道,汤普森正面回答了这位小姑娘的质疑:“我们不卖垃圾食品,我的孩子们也吃麦当劳。”

  He added that he watched what his children eat, making sure they eats lots of fruit and vegetables at home, and that McDonald's sells fruit, such as apple slices, in children's meals.

  他还表示自己会监督自己孩子们吃的食品,保证孩子们在家的时候能多吃蔬菜水果,而且他表示麦当劳也卖水果,比如在儿童套餐中就是苹果片。
