悲劇! 伴娘在婚禮上狂飲白酒後身亡!
The recent death of a 28-year-old bridesmaid in Wenchang, Hainan province, from being forced to drink too much alcohol at a wedding banquet has stirred up public debate, the media reported last Monday.
據媒體上週一報道，近日海南省文昌市一位28歲伴娘因在婚禮現場被迫大量飲酒而不幸身亡，此事引起了羣衆的熱議。A video clip widely circulating on Chinese social-media sites shows the woman in a black dress being egged on into drinking baijiu at the ceremony.
一則在社交網絡中迅速傳播的視頻顯示，一名身穿黑色裙子的年輕女子在婚禮上被旁人頻頻勸飲白酒。She later appears to lose consciousness, and is rushed to local hospital. Unfortunately, the emergency department fails to resuscitate her.
隨後該名女子便失去意識，並被火速送往當地醫院。不幸的是，急診部最終沒能挽回她的生命。
A preliminary investigation by local police shows the woman died after consuming too much alcohol, which caused vomiting and choked her to death.
當地警方經過初步調查之後認爲，該女子是因飲酒過量，導致嘔吐物堵塞了呼吸道引發窒息死亡。According to the report, the family of the bridesmaid and the newlyweds are negotiating the liability and related compensation issues.
據新聞報道，這位伴娘的家人正在與這對新婚夫婦就死亡責任以及相關賠償等問題進行協商。
The incident has become a controversial topic on the internet over wedding traditions, as well as who should be held responsible for her death.
這起事件已經在網絡上引發了人們對於婚禮傳統習俗的討論，一時成爲熱點話題，同時還有誰應爲伴娘之死負責這個問題。In China, drinking baijiu is usually considered an important part of social ritual, especially in business dinners and wedding banquets.
白酒在中國的社交場合可謂是必不可少的一部分，在商務晚宴和婚宴這種場合更是如此。But sometimes it just goes too far as the guests have to follow the hosts' orders no matter how reluctant they are.
然而，對於不顧客人意願，主人強行勸酒的這種行爲就有些過分了。And this also puts too much social pressure on women as many men start crossing the borders in physical contacts, using indelicate language and forced drinking.
同時，有些男性會越過身體上接觸的邊界，並說出一些粗俗下流的語言，強行勸酒，這讓女性也承受了很大的社會壓力。While some internet users said those who forced the bridesmaid should take full responsibility as they pushed her, others believed the woman should also be blamed as she was an adult and could have chosen not to drink.
儘管一些網友認爲應該讓那些勸酒的圍觀者負全部責任，但仍有一些網友認爲該伴娘也應承擔責任，因爲作爲一名成年人她完全可以選擇拒絕喝酒。
