(CNN) -- With a father who is a 3)toppled Communist leader and a mother accused of murder, the son, Bo Guagua, is now under scrutiny over reports of a 4)lavish student lifestyle that have raised questions about where China's top 5)cadres find their money.

大意：隨著爸爸[薄熙來]垮台，媽媽[谷開來]因謀殺被起訴，薄瓜瓜現在被媒體放大報導為過著放蕩的學生生活，不禁讓人懷疑到底中共高幹們的錢從哪裡來？

Photographs of him bare-chested with his arms around female students at an Oxford college party and 6)urinating against a college fence have gone down badly in China, where his father, Bo Xilai, has been accused of corruption and stripped of his political post.

大意：當他的爸爸薄熙來因為貪污被起訴而遭解職時，薄瓜瓜敞露胸膛在牛津大學宴會上摟著兩個女學生，以及對著學校圍牆小便的照片傳遍了中國。

Bo Xilai reacted furiously to questions about his 24-year-old son's lifestyle last month.

薄熙來憤怒的回應這些對他二十四歲兒子的生活方式的質疑。

"A few people have been 7)pouring filth on Chongqing [重慶]and me and my family," Bo said at the time. "They even say that my son studies abroad and drives a red Ferrari. 8)Sheer rubbish! I feel really furious. Sheer rubbish!"

就是有些人趁機給重慶潑髒水污衊我及我的家人。甚至有人說我兒子在國外開著紅色的法拉利。根本是一派胡言。`
