Four months before Crown Prince Felipe says "si"("yes" in Spanish) to television journalist Letizia Ortiz, royal wedding fever is gripping Spain.
Shops are offering the biggest variety of wedding souvenirs(纪念品), from plates and bottle-openers to copies of the couple’s engagement ring.
The couple have made only a few carefully staged public appearances to reduce the scrutiny(仔细检查).
Spanish people waited for more than a decade for the 36-year-old son of King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia to find a suitable bride. And more important, the May 22 wedding will be a landmark event in other ways.
Letizia Ortiz Rocasolano, 31, is the daughter of a nurse and a journalist. So, she will be the first commoner on a throne once occupied by Queen Isabella, who sent Christopher Columbus to the Americas.
The pretty, elegant former news anchor(新闻主持人) will also become Spain’s first home-grown queen in more than a century. The lively and professionally accomplished Letizla has been welcomed by Spanish people as a new type of queen for a modern monarchy. Spanish people were accustomed to seeing her in television news broadcasts and she arouses tremendous curiosity. Journalists are investigating even the most ordinary aspects of her past which resembles that of so many other young Spanish professional women.
Spanish people have also taken note that she tried to interrupt the prince when they talked to the press after getting engaged in November. "Let me talk," she told the heir to the Bourbon throne.
Such behavior is regarded as understandable in a woman who went to Mexico by herself at age 23 and later reported on the September 11 terrorist attacks and the Iraq war for state television TVE.
Her strong character, frankness and critical mind could also be disadvantages for a royal who is rarely expected to speak her mind, reporters have said.
The palace has struggled to protect her from scrutiny and to give her time to adapt to her new role.
选项
A、a lot of royal weddings follow
B、the Spanish people are surprised at the royal wedding
C、the royal wedding makes a stir in the whole country
D、the royal wedding becomes a fashion
