　　In another new post announced, Liam Fox was appointed as the new international trade secretary. Amber³ Rudd - formerly⁴ the energy secretary - took over Mrs May's former role as home secretary.

　　另一个宣布新设的职位，即国际贸易大臣，由利亚姆·福克斯出任。前能源大臣安布尔·陆克文接替梅之前的内政大臣这一角色。

　　The current male-female ratio of the cabinet remains⁵ roughly the same - at 70% to 30%, while there are 16 cabinet members, including Mrs May, who backed Remain, and seven who campaigned for Brexit.

　　内阁当前的男女比率约保持在70%比30%，包括梅在内的16位内阁成员支持留欧，但有7名内阁成员支持脱欧。

　　只有4个内阁职位的出任者未变：国防大臣迈克尔·法伦、卫生大臣杰里米·亨特、威尔士大臣阿伦·凯恩斯和苏格兰大臣大卫·芒德尔。

　　Former Conservative Foreign Secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind praised the "ruthless" way Mrs May has appointed her top team, saying it showed strong leadership and "strategic" vision.

　　前保守党外交大臣马尔科姆·里夫金德爵士称赞了梅提拔其核心成员所采用的“残酷”方式，这表明她有着铁腕领导能力及“战略性”视角。

　　"She has not only got a strategy to balance the Leave and Remain sides, she is trying to eliminate these distinctions because we are all now aiming for the same objective. She has appointed with a ruthlessness that has been impressive to look at," he told the BBC. "The decision that most surprised me was George Osborne - not that he ceased to be chancellor - but it appears she wasn't even willing to offer him a job in government.... he is a very impressive heavyweight."

　　他在接受英国广播公司采访时表示：“她不仅找到了一种平衡脱欧派和留欧派力量的策略，还在努力消除他们之间的分歧，因为我们现在都瞄准着同一个目标。她以一种残酷的方式任命内阁官员，这留给了我们很深的印象。最使我感到惊讶的决定，不是乔治·奥斯本卸任大法官一职之事，而是梅甚至不愿意为他在政府留出一寸立足之地，可他确实是一位举足轻重的人物。”
