　　卡特说，2012年12月，剧组成员在美国旅游期间，第一夫人的私人管家曾经招待他们游览了白宫。

　　In an interview with Scotland&aposs STV Enertainment, he called the arrangement "not too shabby."

　　在接受苏格兰娱乐频道STV电视台采访时，卡特戏称白宫内部装潢“不算寒酸”。

　　The Englishman is seemingly unaware that as of this March, the hoi polloi in America can&apost even get a peek of the first family&aposs residence due to sequestration.

　　这位英国演员还不知道，由于今年三月开始的白宫封馆政策，如今美国老百姓们要瞧一眼白宫都难上加难。

　　On the White House website, a message still reads that "due to staffing reductions resulting from sequestration, we regret to inform you that White House Tours will be canceled."

　　在白宫官网上，仍然可见如下通知：“为执行《封存透明法案》预算削减政策，白宫正在进行裁员，白宫旅游活动取消，请您见谅。”

　　Season four of the ITV drama premiered in the U.K. this week.

　　《唐顿庄园》第四季本周已在英国独立电视台开播。
