雙語新聞閱讀之情婦獵手

據可獲得的民政部最新數據，2023年，中國的離婚率已經從2023年的1.59‰上升到2.67‰，遠高于歐洲。法國的離婚率是1.9‰，而意大利僅有0.9‰。

In Beijing, official statistics show 73,000 couples divorced in 2023 -- almost three times the number nine years previously.

在北京，官方數據顯示2023年有7.3萬對夫妻離婚，幾乎是九年前數字的三倍。

"The reasons? The liberalisation of morals, tensions related to differences between the husband's and the wife's income, incompatible personalities," said Zhu Ruilei, a divorce attorney at Beijing-based law firm Yingke. "But also the desire to pursue personal dreams is stronger than it used it be."

北京盈科律師事務所的離婚律師朱瑞磊(音)說：“離婚的原因?道德自由化，夫妻收入差異帶來的關系緊張，以及性格不合。還有就是人們追求個人夢想的意愿比以往更強了。”

According to a study by dating site Baihe.com, at least one party has been unfaithful in half of Chinese first marriages.

根據婚戀服務網站百合網的調查，在半數的中國初次婚姻中，至少一方有出軌行為。

The survey found that more than 21 percent of first time husbands have had a mistress, and a similar number -- 20 percent -- of wives have had a lover. In nearly nine percent of first marriages, both partners have cheated.

這項調查發現，超過21%的初婚丈夫有情婦。而與之相當的是，20%的初婚妻子有情夫。在近9%的初次婚姻中，夫妻雙方都有出軌行為。

"Today being unfaithful has become easy, especially with the internet," said Pan Xingshi, who runs an online advice company, referring to the popularity of Tantan, China's equivalent of Tinder.

潘興時(音)經營一家在線咨詢公司。他在談及時下流行的社交應用“探探”(中國版Tinder)時說：“如今出軌變得很容易，尤其是借助互聯網。”

But mistresses are still poorly regarded in the country, where having children out of wedlock remains socially taboo. They are known as "xiaosan", a derogatory term meaning a third person of lower rank than a wife.

但在中國，情婦名聲依然糟糕，非婚生子女也仍是社會禁忌。情婦被稱為“小三”，這個貶義稱謂意為地位低于妻子的第三者。

Sometimes they fall victim to violent vigilantism.

有時，她們還會成為暴力私刑的受害者。

In June, a video went viral showing a naked girl being attacked by a group of women. She was suspected of being the mistress of one of the women's husbands.

今年6月，一段在網上瘋傳的視頻顯示一個裸體女孩被一群女子圍毆。她被懷疑是其中一名女子丈夫的情人。
