日常生活的沟通上，说错话、表错情总是会带来不少麻烦，而政府官员、公众人物的言谈，更是会被放大检视。中国有句俗话说 “言者无心，听者有意” 就把这种因言语而产生的误会表达得很透彻。今天的课程里，就让我们来看看，政治人物说错话时，到底该怎么替自己 “圆一圆”？又会引起人民什么样的反应呢？

Another official has been shooting his mouth off recently, with the line "What did you expect me to be able to do when you asked me to come here?" whilst visiting an area affected by floods creating a storm of comments online, with netizens saying that he should be voted the most honest official of the year. Let's have a look at the press conference called by the county government.
针对日前发言遭媒体朋友断章取义本人感到十分遗憾但对于因此心理受到伤害的灾民本人由衷道歉当时的意思是要请灾民以及我们第一线的同僚提出具体需求而非消费灾民本人既然身为地方首长当然要与民众站在一起希望能有具体作为

It pains me that my comments were taken out of context by the media, but I would like to extend a heartfelt apology to any flood victims who felt hurt as a result. At the time, I was asking flood victims and rescue workers on the front line to come up with actual demands. I wasn't trying to use the flood victims and as a member of the local leadership. Of course I should stand shoulder to shoulder with the public and do something substantive for them.
所以县长您是否认失言一事吗
suǒyǐ 所以xiànzhǎng 县长nín 您shì 是fǒurèn 否认shīyán 失言yīshì 一事ma 吗
So you're denying that you made a slip of the tongue?
我没有否认我说过的话但是请不要曲解我的意思
wǒ 我méiyǒu 没有fǒurèn 否认wǒ 我shuō 说guò 过de 的huà 话dànshì 但是qǐng búyào 请不要qūjiě 曲解wǒ de 我的yìsi 意思
I didn't deny what I said, but please don't twist my words.
