, M.Ed. from UHouston
I am answering as an American.
When I think of, or watch the Queen, I see the past, present, and future of the UK. I see a woman who was out working besides her future subjects during the years of WWII. I see a woman who has served her country longer than any other monarch. I see a woman who has visited more places than any other monarch. I see a woman who has put her country first many times when the rest of us wouldn’t have. I see a woman whom I trust as much as family, and who got me interested in visiting a country far away from my own.
My life is better because of Elizabeth II.
居住在英国（1950年至今）。
我是作为一个美国人回答的。
当我想到或看到女王的时候，我看到了英国的过去、现在和未来。我看到一个在二战期间与她未来的臣民一起外出努力的女人。我看到了一个为国家服务的时间比任何其他君主都长的女人。我看到一个比其他任何君主访问过更多地方的女人。我看到一个在我们其他人不会这样做的时候多次把她的国家放在第一位的女人。我看到一个我像信任家人一样信任的女人，她让我对访问一个远离我自己的国家感兴趣。
我的生活因为伊丽莎白二世而变得更好。
I just saw the number of upvotes on my answer. I was just speaking from the heart but never expected this many upvotes. Thank you so much for the kind words said in return. All is much appreciated.
我刚刚看到我的答案被很多人点赞（注：目前为止有2400个赞）。我只是说说心里话，但没想到会有这么多的支持率。非常感谢你们对我的支持。所有这些都让我觉得很贴心。

When you were 21, on your birthday, did you turn to your friends, and family members and say anything REMOTELY similar to this:
“My whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service and the service of our great imperial family.”
This is what Her Majesty said, and has lived up to.
Imagine your life, and the life of your entire family being exposed to the public on a daily basis. Imagine not being able to mourn the death of your husband, or any family member, in private….
When your son ‘acts out’ as a teen, does it hit the front page of the paper? How about when he got seen smoking a joint?
When you flatulate, is there a headline in the national papers that say “So and so passed gas, family is aghast’
One of the reasons she’s so loved is that her bearing and demeanor hasn’t changed one iota. She doesn’t toss temper tantrums in public, she doesn’t lie to her subjects, she doesn’t embarrass her government, her people or her country.
Her biggest gaffe was in the Royal’s initial handling of the death of Dianna, Princess of Wales, and she recovered from that quite nicely. One statement… “So what I say to you now, as your Queen and as a grandmother, I say from my heart.” put everything back into perspective.
When she has been the brunt of a joke… and here I refer to the “talking hat” incident in the U.S. when the podium was too high, she has shown the ‘lighter side’ of her demeanor. For those who don’t follow the Queen closely, her opening comment the next day when she addressed Congress, was, “I do hope you can all see me from where you are.” This ‘brought the house down’ and a very long standing ovation. No temper tantrum, no accusations, no media comments. Just her way of saying, “Well, s**t happens.”
She has borne the burden of the Crown for over 7 decades.
In an age of world leaders who tweet insults constantly, threaten other countries relentlessly, demean opponents with crude and caustic remarks, she has stood out as the epitome of national representation.
When we say “God Save The Queen” -we mean it.
当你21岁时，在你的生日上，你是否对你的朋友和家人说过与此相似的话。
"我的一生，无论长短，都将致力于为您和我们伟大的皇室服务。"
这就是女王陛下所说的，并且一直在践行。
想象一下，你的生活，以及你整个家族的生活每天都暴露在公众面前。想象一下，不能在私下里哀悼你丈夫或任何家庭成员的死亡....
当你的儿子在十几岁的时候'表现出格'时，是否会上报纸的头版？当他被看到抽大麻的时？
当你肠胃不舒服时，全国性报纸的头条是否会说："某某放屁，皇室震惊"？
她如此受人喜爱的原因之一是她的举止和风度没有一丝一毫的改变。她不在公共场合发脾气，不对她的臣民撒谎，不给她的政府、她的人民和她的国家丢脸。
她最大的失误是在皇室对威尔士公主戴安娜死亡的最初处理中，她很好地从中恢复了过来。一句声明...... "所以我现在对你们说的话，作为你们的女王和祖母，我是发自内心的。"把一切都拉回到正轨。
当她成为一个笑话的首当其冲者时......这里我指的是在美国发生的"会说话的帽子"事件，当时讲台太高了，她显示了她举止的"轻松的一面"。对于那些没有密切关注女王的人来说，她第二天在国会讲话时的开场白是："我确实希望你们都能从你们所在的地方看到我。" 这句话"引得满堂喝彩"，并获得了长时间的起立鼓掌。没有发脾气，没有指责，没有媒体评论。她只是以她的方式说："好吧，发生了一些蠢事情"。
她承担着王室的重任已经超过70年了。
在一个世界各国领导人不断在推特上发表侮辱性言论、无情地威胁其他国家、用粗暴和尖刻的言论贬低对手的时代，她一直作为国家代表的缩影而脱颖而出。
当我们说"上帝保佑女王 "时，我们是认真的。
She epitomises what it is to be the best of British. Your thoughtful words Mary are appreciated.
God Save the Queen
她是最好的英国人的缩影。感谢你的贴心话语。
上帝保佑女王
Thank you for such a clear and concise answer. I, too, as a U.S. citizen, feel that the world is a safer place when people such as QE II are in places of power. Not people who expect to be respected just because of the family they were born into, but people who consider themselves to be the servants of their people and countries. It will be a great loss to the entire world when she goes.
谢谢你如此清晰和简明的回答。作为一个美国公民，我也觉得，当像伊丽莎白二世这样的人在权力的位置上时，世界是一个更安全的地方。不是那些仅仅因为他们出生的家庭而期望得到尊重的人，而是那些认为自己是其人民和国家的仆人的人。当她离开时，这将是整个世界的一个巨大损失。
I agree with you one hundred percent Mary. I, as a fellow American, admire Queen Elizabeth so much. She has so much class and respect for others and she is a role model that I have looked up to all of my life. My dream is to go to England one day.
我百分之一百同意你的观点，玛丽。作为一个美国同胞，我非常钦佩伊丽莎白女王。她非常有品位和对他人的尊重，她是我一生都在仰视的榜样。我的梦想是有一天能到英国去。
That’s a beautiful piece Mary.
I adore our Queen. Really adore her. Like Prince Philip, her majesty’s life has been a full and productive life. Productive for all the good she’s done for our country. At 95 years old she is still serving her country when her subjects would have retired 30 years earlier. Her life has been an interesting one, with many downs as well as ups.
From learning to be a mechanic in WW2, to her describing the best night of her life when she anonymously joined the crowds in trafalger square on D day. Laughing, singing and dancing with complete strangers, and getting swept up with the crowd. Her one night of freedom, as a young princess where she experienced the joy that the rest of the country was experiencing.
This woman is so special that even the republicans in our country have nothing but admiration for her. She will be a hard act to follow, and I can honestly say that I, and the entire population of the UK dreads the day our beautiful Queen is no longer with us.
这是一篇美好的文章，玛丽。
我很崇拜我们的女王。真的很崇拜她。像菲利普亲王一样，女王陛下的一生是充实而富有成效的一生。丰富的是她为我们国家所做的一切好事。在95岁高龄时，她仍在为国家服务，而她的臣民在30年前就已经退休了。她的一生是一个有趣的过程，有着许多坎坷。
从在二战中学习成为一名机械师，到她描述在诺曼底登陆日匿名加入特拉法尔格广场的人群时，是她生命中最美好的夜晚。她与完全陌生的人一起大笑、唱歌和跳舞，并被人群淹没。她的一个自由之夜，作为一个年轻的公主，她在那里体验了全国其他地方正在经历的快乐。
这个女人是如此特别，甚至我们国家的共和党人对她也只有敬佩之情。她将是一个难以效仿的行为，我可以坦率地说，我和整个英国的民众都害怕我们美丽的女王不再与我们在一起的那一天。
What has she done?
What has she not done!
As soon as the news of her fathers passing arrived, she immediately put duty before personal needs, and well done she did it all
她做了什么？
她没有不做什么!
她父亲去世的消息一传来，她就立即把责任放在个人需求之前，而且做得很好。她都做到了。
I would add a few other reasons Queen Elizabeth II is so loved by all Brits, even those who would like to abolish the monarchy. The first of these was mentioned in an article I read though I cannot recall who noted this. The author noted that Queen Elizabeth II is so loved by her countrymen and women because she has not said anything in all of her speeches or even casually slipped up that would offend anyone and she has not said a word about anything that could be the least bit controversial. She also pays lots of bills instead of seeking more public funds for staff and for managing her many homes and the estates they sit on. Last, she has demonstrated an inner strength on a number of occasions including the deaths of four of the most important people in her life - her father, her mother, her sister, and most recently, her husband. And that is exactly the point. She knows how to be silent on matters of state and matters that most of her subjects and all of her politicians have opinions on and on all other topics that people opine on without giving it a thought. I would add to this: Queen Elizabeth II is also modest and never even suggests or implies that she seeks adoration or approval. She also knows how to bring people together and comfort people when times are difficult. And for these reasons and the comments previously stated, she is the perfect monarch for our times.
我想补充一些其他的原因，伊丽莎白二世女王受到所有英国人的喜爱，甚至那些想废除君主制的人。我读过的一篇文章中提到了其中的第一个原因，尽管我不记得是谁指出的。作者指出，伊丽莎白二世女王之所以如此受到她的同胞们的爱戴，是因为她在所有的演讲中没有说过任何会冒犯别人的话，甚至没有随便说过一句话，也没有说过任何可能有丝毫争议的话。她还支付了很多账单，而不是为工作人员和管理她的许多住宅及其所在的庄园寻求更多公共资金。最后，她在一些场合表现出了其内在的力量，包括她生命中最重要的四个人的死亡--她的父亲、母亲、妹妹，以及最近她的丈夫。而这正是问题的关键。她知道如何在国家大事上保持沉默，以及在大多数臣民和所有政客都有意见的事情上，以及在所有其他人们不加考虑就发表意见的话题上保持沉默。我想在此补充一点。伊丽莎白二世女王也很谦虚，甚至从未提示或暗示她寻求崇拜或认可。她还知道如何使人们团结起来，在困难的时候安慰人们。由于这些原因和前面所说的评论，她是我们这个时代的完美君主。
I still don’t think her work is such a big deal. It requires only moderate senior executive skills and she is amply rewarded for it. Her workplace conditions are probably the best of anyone anywhere ever. You sycophant monarchists are determined to make a hero out of her. Many capable women hold down much more difficult executive jobs today.
我仍然不认为她的工作有什么大不了的。这只需要适度的高级管理技能，而她也因此得到了充分的回报。她的工作场所条件可能是有史以来任何地方的人中最好的。你们这些奸佞的君主主义者决心把她塑造成英雄。但是在今天，许多有能力的妇女担任着更困难的行政工作。
Could I enquire Mary, how has Elizabeth made your life better?
It's a genuine question, mainly because I didn't expect that answer from outside of the Commonwealth. And especially from an American. I'm not trying to ridicule you.
我能否询问一下玛丽，伊丽莎白是如何让你的生活变得更好的？
这是一个真诚的问题，主要是因为我没有想到这个答案来自英联邦以外的国家。尤其是来自一个美国人。不是说我想嘲笑你。
Yes, the Queen has fulfilled her Coronation promises to God and to her People. She has set a marvellous example. I am nearly 87 years old myself so I can speak with experience of her dedication.
是的，女王已经履行了她对上帝和人民的加冕时的承诺。她树立了一个了不起的榜样。我自己也快87岁了，所以我可以用自己的经验来说明她的奉献精神。
Thank you kindly from me too. Monarchy may not be everybody’s political cup of tea, but through Her Majesty and Prince Philip, it has served us famously. Id like to hope there are many others around the globe who feel the same.
Despite the awful way many of our politicians have behaved (I know, some have been great), we have had the shining example of someone prepared to devote life and energy to the service of the people. If that doesn’t make every body proud, it certainly does me.
我也很感谢你。君主制可能不是每个人在政治方面的茶，但通过女王陛下和菲利普亲王，它为我们服务得很好。我希望全球还有很多人有同样的感觉。
尽管我们的许多政治家表现得很糟糕（我知道，有些人表现得很好），但我们有一个光辉的榜样，那就是有人准备把生命和精力投入到为人民服务中去。如果这还不能使每个人感到自豪，那我自己肯定会感到自豪。
Thank you! I am British and pro manarchy.
In this day and age we all need someone to look up to.
If you elect someone, you don't look up to him - you hire him to do a job!
Hero worship?
I'm not into that but like most folk, there are people I look up to and respect because they are better than me and the wuern I'd one such person. She's wonderful!!!
谢谢你 我是英国人，支持君主制。
在这个时代，我们都需要有人来仰望。
如果你选举一个人，你不会仰望他--你只是雇用他来做事！
对英雄的崇拜？
我不喜欢这样，但像大多数人一样，有些人是我仰望和尊重的，因为他们比我强，而我的妻子就是这样的人。她超好！！！！！！
she has been true to herself and the country and commonwealth never putting herself above and before what her calling as Monarch needs to be
她一直忠于自己，忠于国家和联邦，从未将自己置于其作为君主所需的使命之上和之前。
The UK went through extraordinary problems postwar, it is likely that the Queen personally and her position helped moderate extreme excursions in government and culture. Either way , she has done her duty for the nation like the many soldiers did their duty despite hardships, injuries or death. She deserves the respect, she earned it.
英国在战后经历了许多非同寻常的问题，很可能是女王个人和她的地位帮助缓和了政府和文化中的各自极端偏离现象。无论怎样，她都为国家尽了自己的职责，就像许多士兵不顾艰难困苦、受伤或死亡而尽了自己的职责。她应该得到尊重，她赢得了尊重。

As a fellow American, I agree with you 100%. I greatly admire her for what she has done throughout her reign. More people should follow her example. I have only been to England once many years ago. I hope I can get back there one day.
作为一个美国同胞，我100%同意你的观点。我非常钦佩她在位期间所做的一切。更多的人应该以她为榜样。我只在许多年前去过英国一次。我希望有一天我可以回到那里。

Love is a strong word, but most of us have a lot of respect for the old dear. She is tough as old boots, but dresses up her toughness in a silk glove.
She served as a mechanic during the war. That alone grants her a level of respect in Britain as part of the ‘greatest generation’. She was then thrust into being monarch unexpectedly at a young age by the death of her father. Without complaint she took up the burden of the Crown and tried to manage the impossible task of keeping things on an even keel despite having no real power herself.
She is necessarily apolitical, but she has a quiet sense of purpose about trying to nudge the world into being a better place. When she entertained the King of Saudi Arabia she made a point of driving him around the Balmoral estate personally so that she could - without saying anything improper - quietly make the point that there is nothing wrong with a woman driving a car.
She is now an old woman in her 90s. But whilst people like the Pope might think they are too old and tired for their duties and retire from public office, she plods doggedly on with an indefatigable sense of duty.
Not everyone loves her. But virtually everyone respects her. We’ve had plenty of crap monarchs over the last 1,000 years. She isn’t one of them.
, 住在英国
爱是一个强烈的字眼，但我们大多数人都对这位老太太的充满了敬意。她像旧靴子一样坚韧，但用丝绸的外表掩饰着她的坚韧。
她在战争期间担任过机械师。仅这一点就使她在英国得到了一定程度的尊重，成为"最伟大的一代"的一员。她在年轻时就因为父亲的去世而意外地被推上了君主的位置。她毫无怨言地挑起了王室的重担，尽管自己没有真正的权力，但她试图处理好这个不可能完成的任务，使事情保持平稳。
她必然是不懂政治的，但她有一种安静的使命感，试图把世界变成一个更好的地方。当她招待沙特阿拉伯国王时，她特意亲自开车带他参观巴尔莫勒尔庄园，这样她就可以--不说任何不当的话--悄悄地表明，女人开车并没有错。
她现在是一位90多岁的老太太了。但是，当像教皇这样的人可能认为自己已经老得不能再老、累得不能再累而从公职上退休时，她却以一种不屈不挠的责任感顽强地坚持着。
不是每个人都爱她。但几乎所有人都尊重她。在过去的1000年里，我们有很多糟糕的君主。她并不是其中之一。
As an American, God Save the Queen!
作为一个美国人，我只想说：天佑女王!
Indeed. It puts those who are by inclination republican, like myself, in a difficult position.
I have the utmost respect for the Queen, not because she is the monarch but because of the woman she is and how she has comported herself for the last sixty odd years in a role she did not choose. As monarchs go she has been remarkable for all the right reasons. She will, eventually, prove a hard act to follow.
My view on the institution of monarchy is rather less benign.
The dilemma is separating the two.
的确如此。这让那些倾向于共和的人，比如我，陷入了困境。
我非常尊重女王，不是因为她是君主，而是因为她是一个女人，以及她在过去60多年里如何在一个她没得选择的角色中表现好自己。作为君主，她在所有正确的事情上的做法都是杰出的。最终，她将被证明是一个难以效仿的角色。
我对君主制度的看法则没那么善意。
进退两难的是如何将这两者分开。
My view is that it is better than the alternatives.
If we are going to have a ceremonial function for our head of state then lets have a ceremonial head of state and a separate political head of state to do the day to day work and concentrate on doing that job.
Having one person do both functions just reduces time available to manage the day to day running of the country.
Once you decide that a ceremonial head of state is what you need for all the state visits etc then the obvious decision is to avoid electing them because it saves you a lot of money in the long run. Having a monarch or a president means forking out a lot of money for looking after them while they do their job and with elected ones you have to keep paying to look after the retired ones.
Better to have a family who get trained to do the job of representing the country while having no executive power.
Finally while you can have great elected presidents who do have executive power you can also have terrible ones (plus you require then to split their duties between wielding executive power and doing the PR side).
Essentially the current system works very well so don’t replace it with a system we know does not work as well.
我的观点是，这比其他选择要好。
如果我们的国家元首要有一个仪式性的功能，那么就让我们有一个仪式性的国家元首和一个单独的政治元首来做日常的工作，并集中精力做好这项工作。
由一个人兼任这两项职能只会减少管理国家日常运作的时间。
一旦你认识到一个仪式性的国家元首所需要做的就是国事访问之类的等等，那么很明显你就不会选举他们，因为从长远来看，这可以为国家节省很多钱。拥有一个实权君主或总统意味着在他们工作的时候要花很多钱来照顾他们，而对于选举产生的人，你必须继续付钱来照顾他的退休生活。
所以最好是有一个皇室，在没有行政权力的情况下，接受培训来做代表国家的工作。
最后，虽然你可以拥有伟大的民选总统，但你也可以拥有糟糕的民选总统（此外，你还要求他们在行使行政权力和进行公关方面分担职责）。
从本质上讲，目前的制度运行得很好，所以不要用一个我们知道效果不好的制度来取代它。
Her Majesty also receives weekly briefings from the Prime Minister. Although she is apolitical, she has seen and interacted with every Prime Minister since 1952, so when she speaks to the PM she can offer a great deal of experience and corporate knowledge. If the PM chooses to take the Queen’s advice is another matter altogether.
女王陛下还会收到总理的每周简报。虽然她不参与政治，但自1952年以来，她与每一位首相都有过交往，所以当她与首相交谈时，她可以提供大量的经验和对应的知识。如果首相选择接受女王的建议，则完全是另一回事。
To be honest Colin, the affection many people in Britain and to a lesser extent have for the Queen is love no matter how we want to downplay it. When the inevitable happens, we will see an outpouring of grief in this country on a scale I personally dread. For those of us that have lost loved ones, the grief will be more or less the same. Hardly anyone under the age of 75 in the UK will remember the previous monarch. The Queen represents stability and normality, just like the BBC we always expect it to be there. When Diana died, we were not as uncertain as a country as we're now in my opinion most of what connected us to the past seems to be in flux. Also finally and especially for practising Anglicans like me, the Queen is our anointed spiritual representative not unlike the Pope.
说实话，科林，无论我们想如何淡化，英国的许多人以及在较小程度上对女王的感情都是爱。当不可避免的事情发生时，我们将看到这个国家悲伤情绪的爆发，其规模之大会令我个人感到恐惧。对于我们这些已经失去亲人的人来说，悲痛的程度或多或少都是一样的。在英国，几乎没有一个75岁以下的人记得前任君主。女王代表着稳定和正常，就像BBC一样，我们总是期望它能在那里。当戴安娜去世时，我们作为一个国家并不像现在这样不确定，在我看来，大部分将我们与过去联系起来的东西似乎都在变化。最后，特别是对于像我这样的圣公会教徒来说，女王是我们受膏的精神代表，与教皇不一样。
My mother had great deal of respect for her. (as did my father). When I was a youngster, she spoke frequently of the Queen, then a princess, and her WW2 service. She later attended the Virginia General Assembly’s reception for the Queen on her (1957) visit to Williamsburg and Jamestown for the 350th anniversary of the founding of the first Dominion in the new world. I remember visiting Jamestown as a student and reading the quote from the Queen’s speech on democracy (emblazoned on the facade of the Jamestown visitors center) from that visit as she spoke of the democratic values shared by and creating a bond among the English speaking counties of the world which trace their legal and political ideals from common law and Magna Carter. She has been an amazing world leader.
我母亲对她非常尊敬。(我的父亲也是如此）。当我还是个孩子的时候，她经常谈到女王，当时的公主，以及她在二战中的服务。后来，她参加了弗吉尼亚州议会为女王（1957年）访问威廉斯堡和詹姆斯敦以纪念新世界第一个自治州成立350周年而举行的招待会。我记得在学生时代访问詹姆斯敦时，我读到了女王在那次访问中关于民主的讲话中的一句话（印在詹姆斯敦游客中心的外墙上），她谈到了世界上讲英语的各国所共有的民主价值观，并在这些国家之间建立了一种联系，这些国家的法律和政治理想都来自于习惯法和大宪章。她一直是一位了不起的世界领袖。
