欧洲最长寿奶奶庆116岁生日

Emma Morano, Europe’s oldest person and the second-oldest in the world, marked her 116th birthday by offering to sing her favourite song for visiting well-wishers, Italian media reported.

爱玛莫拉诺是欧洲年龄最大的人，在世界上排名第二。意大利媒体报道，她为来访的祝福者唱了她最喜欢的歌来庆祝她的116岁生日。

Morano, one of only two women alive certified to have been born in the 19th century, reached the milestone on Sunday in her one-bedroom flat in Verbania, a small town in the Piedmont region of north-west Italy.

莫拉诺是仅存的两位生于19世纪的女性之一，周日她在韦尔巴尼亚自己的一室公寓中到达了人生的里程碑，韦尔巴尼亚是一个意大利西北部山麓地带的小乡村。

“I’m fine, I’m fine and as long as it stays like that I will remain with you,” she was quoted as saying. “You know I have a beautiful voice, if you like I can sing Parlami d’amore Mariù [Talk to me about love, Mariu].”

“我很好，我很好，只要一切保持不变，我就会一直与你同在，”她引用了一句谚语，“你知道我有美丽的嗓子，如果你喜欢的话，我可以唱‘Mariu和我谈谈爱情’给你听。”

In an interview with the New York Times earlier this year, Morano attributed her longevity to having left a violent husband in 1938, shortly after the death of her only child at seven months, and to eating three eggs a day for much of her life.

在今年年初纽约时报的一篇采访中，莫拉诺将她的长寿归因于1938年失去她唯一7个月的孩子后，离开了她野蛮的丈夫，还有在她人生大多数日子里，每天吃3个鸡蛋。

Diagnosed with anaemia at 20, she was advised to eat two raw eggs and a cooked one every day, a regime she maintained for 90 years.

在20岁被诊断为贫血后，她被建议每天吃两个生鸡蛋和一个熟鸡蛋，这个习惯她保持了90年。

Susannah Mushatt Jones, the American who is the only other member of the 116 club, also attributes her longevity to many decades of living on her own, having been married for only five years between 1928-33.

Susannah Mushatt Jones，另一位116岁的美国人，也将其长寿归因于几十年独自居住，只在1928至33年结婚5年。

The Brooklyn resident is also a regular egg eater – although she prefers hers scrambled and served with four rashers of bacon.

这位布鲁克林的居民也常常食用鸡蛋——尽管她更喜欢将鸡蛋和四片培根一起炒着吃。
