  或许每个女孩心中都藏有一个灰姑娘变王后的梦想,当看到皇室婚礼的时候,这一小小的梦想是否又会冒出头来?给你一分钟的时间,让我们来听听Tamina由此产生的奇思妙想。
  
  For one day every year the royals will become commoners and a commoner will sit on the 1)throne.
  My 60-second idea 2)stems from the belief that the absence of empathy is responsible for many injustices in the world today. The ability to imagine the lives of others will make the world a better place. In an attempt to address the problem of empathy, I propose a project called “Queen for a Day”. In a random day of the year you’ll be asked to switch places with someone who has a completely different life to yours, and for that one day you will have to live in their house, eat their food, wear their clothes and work at their job, whether it’s cleaning toilets or answering prime minister’s questions. When the day ends, you will go back to your old life. Um, this day will become a part of our civic duty, like paying taxes or sitting on a jury. And most importantly, no citizen will be 3)exempt. So watch out, you may be having breakfast with the Queen someday.
  
  每一年,皇室成员将变成平民一天,而平民将为王一天。
  (今天)我的60秒奇想源于我认为,共情的缺乏是造成当今世界许多不公的原因。对别人生活的想象力会让这个世界变得更美好。为了解释共情的问题,我提出了一个名为“当一天女王”的方案。在一年中随便找一天,让你和同你生活迥异的某个人交换身份,而那一天,你将不得不住他们的房子,吃他们的食物,穿他们的衣服以及做他们的工作,无论(那种工作)是清扫厕所还是回答总理提问。当那天结束时,你将回到你往日的生活。这一天所做的事情将成为你的公民责任,就好像纳税或者在陪审团听证。而最重要的是,没有公民可以免除这项责任。所以一定要小心啦,也许某一天你就会和女王共进早餐了。
