Normie Kwong, a legendary football fullback nicknamed the "China Clipper" after he became the first Chinese-Canadian in the CFL, has been named Alberta's new lieutenant-governor.4 s: }3 {0 l; L5 h- N

fullback 全卫,进攻组成员,位于四分位quarterback和半位halfback之后,和halfback合称为跑卫 (running back, RB) 。在冲锋进攻时,通常是由体型壮硕的全卫跑在前面开路,而由中卫跟在其后持球冲锋。他们必须在接到四分卫的「递球」(handoff) 后立刻抱紧球,看哨锋与其它队友阻挡的情形,来寻找任何的「洞」(hole,缝隙) ,以决定最有利的冲刺路线,并躲避防守球员加诸其身的任何擒抱与撞击。而在抛传进攻时,他们则可以前冲而变成接球员,或是协助「内攻击线锋」的队友们,来保护四分卫。速度与灵敏是跑卫的主要条件。

Clipper 有快马之意。lieutenant-governor 字面意思是副总督,意译可以是省督。

其中,Edmonton和Montreal成绩最好,经常在总决赛中会师。Edmonton捧回8次Gre杯,一次三连冠(54-56)和一次五连冠(74-79),三连冠就是在Kwong的时代。

The Order of Canada是对有杰出贡献的Canadian的一种国家奖赏,算是劳模之类的,由总督颁发。从1967年开始至今已有四千人获此殊荣。; A! ]& `& G: @& D; N) ?
The Order of Canada奖章有三种,分别是Member, Officer 和 Companion,算是金银铜牌吧。# o" q/ f0 Q/ D* {) z. W/ g

Kwong, who lives in Calgary, said he's not sure whether he'll have to move to Edmonton, especially since the province has torn down the lieutenant-governor's official residence. / X& q) S  e2 R* y
