On 1 January 2023, a few hours after being sworn in(宣誓就职) for his third stint(任期，一段时间) as Brazil’s president, a ravenous(饥肠辘辘的) Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva sneaked away(悄悄溜走) from a celebratory cocktail party packed with politicians and diplomats to grab a snack(随便吃点东西) with one of his oldest friends.
2023年1月1日，在宣誓就任巴西总统、开启第三个任期几个小时后，饥肠辘辘的卢拉·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦从挤满政客和外交官的庆祝鸡尾酒会上悄悄溜走，去和一位老朋友吃点东西。
“This is your penultimate(倒数第二的) term,” that friend, the Dominican(多明我会的) theologian and writer Frei Betto(巴西多明我会修士、神学家、作家，卢拉挚友), recalls telling Lula as the pair chewed the fat(闲聊，侃大山) in a back room of the foreign ministry in Brasília(巴西利亚（巴西首都）).
“这是你的倒数第二个任期，”那位朋友、多明我会神学家兼作家弗雷·贝托回忆道，当时两人正在巴西利亚外交部的一间密室里闲聊。
Betto says Lula laughed off(一笑置之) his provocation(挑逗，挑衅), insisting: “No, Betto! It’s the last one. I’m done(我干完了，我不干了)!”
贝托说，卢拉对他的挑逗一笑置之，坚称：“不，贝托！这是最后一个了。我干完了！”
