CNN News: 香港回歸以來首位女特首——林鄭月娥

An election committee chose the region`s first female leader, a former chief secretary named Carrie Lam. She received 777 of the 1,063 votes that were cast and she said the first thing she`d do is repair Hong Kong`s divided society so the people there can move forward together.

香港特區(qū)第五任行政長官選舉結果揭曉，林鄭月娥獲得777張有效選票，當選為第五任行政長官人選，也成為香港回歸以來首位女特首。林鄭月娥表示，自己將會修復香港分裂的社會，和香港人民一起前進。

Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China. It`s not independent. So, elections like this can come with controversy.

香港是中國的特別行政區(qū)，是中國的一部分。這次選舉在爭議中前進。

For one thing, even though the committee that chose Lam is described as broadly representative of the people, most of the committee members are believed to follow what China wants for the region, and critics say China favored Lam as Hong Kong`s leader, though, opinion polls showed another candidate named John Tsang was more popular with Hong Kong residents. That`s according to a University of Hong Kong professor. A protester described the vote as a selection, rather than an election.

首先，盡管在民意調(diào)查中曾俊華在香港人民的歡迎度更高，但是，本著一個中國的原則，委員會認為林鄭月娥是最為廣泛具有代表的人物。一些抗議人士，表示，這是一場選擇，不是一場選舉。

Lam says she`ll work with everyone to make a better Hong Kong.

林鄭月娥表示，自己會和大家一起，建構一個更加美好的香港。
