Previously unknown newsmakers from Egypt and Japan joined pop stars and politicians on Time magazine's list of 100 most influential people in the world released on Thursday.
《时代》百名全球最具影响力人物榜本周四出炉。除了常见的流行巨星和政治家外，来自埃及和日本的名不见经传的新闻人物也纷纷登榜。

The list includes pop culture giants such as Justin Bieber and Oprah Winfrey plus the lesser known Takeshi Kanno, a Japanese doctor who refused to leave behind victims of the March 11 earthquake and tsunami.
登榜人物包括贾斯汀·比伯、奥普拉·温弗瑞等流行文化巨头，以及在3月11日日本地震和海啸发生时，拒绝丢下遇难者的医生菅野武。

"We've always, always tried to tell stories through people. ... We discovered it was a fantastic way to get people to think about what's going on all over the world," said Time Deputy Managing Editor Michael Elliott.
《时代》杂志副主编迈克尔·埃利奥特说：“我们一直试图通过大众的视角进行报道。我们发现让读者去思考世界上正在发生什么是个很好的方式。”

South Korean pop star Rain won the People's Choice vote for the third straight year. Time editors chose the names on the list except for the People's Choice, selected by online voters.
韩国歌星Rain连续第三年高居“民众票选”榜首。该奖项由网民投票选出，其他上榜人物则由《时代》编辑选出。

"He has very determined fans," Elliott said.
埃利奥特说：“他有很多铁杆粉丝。”

前加州州长、影星阿诺·施瓦辛格在给《时代》的撰文中，称卡梅伦为“成功躲开政治泥潭的中间派”。他写道：“我第一次见到大卫·卡梅伦时，就知道我们在政治上志同道合。”
