　　This year the votes for the World’s Most Powerful went to Russian President Vladimir Putin. He climbs one spot ahead of U.S. President Barack Obama, who held the title in 2012.

　　今年世界最有影响力人物得主是俄罗斯总统普京，美国总统奥巴马由去年的第一名退居第二。

　　Putin has solidified his control over Russia while Obama’s lame duck period has seemingly set in earlier than usual for a two-term president — latest example: the government shutdown mess.

　　在奥巴马焦头烂额之际，普京却巩固了他在俄罗斯的影响力。奥巴马连任后应对的危机似乎比其他人要多，最近的例子就是政府关门风波。

　　This year’s list features 17 heads of state who run nations with a combined GDP of some $48 trillion — including the three most powerful people, Putin, Obama and Xi Jinping, the general secretary of the Communist Party of China. The 27 CEOs and chairs control over $3 trillion in annual revenues, and 12 are entrepreneurs. Speaking of, this year’s class has 28 billionaires valued in excess of $564 billion.

　　今年最有影响力人物榜单包括17名各国领导人，他们领导的国家GDP总额达到48万亿。这些领导人包括普京、奥巴马和中国共产党总书记习近平。名单中还有27位CEO，他们掌管的公司年收入超过3万亿。还有12名企业家入选今年的最有影响力人物排行榜。今年入选榜单的大佬们中，有28位亿万富豪，总身价超过5640亿美元。

　　参加口译考试的同学们在平时要积累大量素材，尤其是像上文这样的双语时事内容。帮助同学们练习。
