　　美国白宫宣布，公众参观白宫可以拍照并上传至社交媒体。这是白宫40年来首次取消拍照禁令。
　　In previous years, the public was banned from takingphotographs with a camera phone or small camera inside 1600Pennsylvania Avenue. But visitors will now be in with the chance of taking the perfect selfie (as longas it"s not with a selfie stick) at the White House now that the ban has been lifted.

　　First Lady Michelle Obama made the announcement about the change of policy in a video postedto her Instagram account. "If you"ve been on a White House tour, you may have seen this sign,"she says holding up a piece of paper. "Well, not anymore," she says smiling as she tears it apart.The sign had been displayed during tour hours and read "no photos or social media allowed."
　　美国第一夫人米歇尔·奥巴马在其Instagram账户发布了一个视频，她在视频中宣布了这一政策改革。米歇尔说：“如果你曾经参观过白宫，你可能看过这个标志”，她手举着一张纸，纸上写着“参观时严禁拍照或使用社交媒体”，接着，米歇尔撕掉了那张纸，笑着说：“现在不同了。”
　　The White House said in a statement: "Guests are now welcome to take photos throughout theWhite House tour route and keep those memories for a lifetime." The long-standing ban ends onJuly 1, and from that point on guests will be able to start using phone cameras and compact stillcameras.
　　白宫发布声明称：“欢迎游客沿着白宫游览路线拍照，留下一生的回忆。”长期以来的拍照禁令于7月1日解除，今后游客可以开始使用手机相机和迷你相机。
　　Embracing the increasing importance of social media, The White House is even encouraging peoplewho visit the house to share their experience on Twitter using the hashtag #WhiteHouseTour."Official guidelines state that guests will be able to use phones and compact still cameras with a lenswith three inches or less.
　　随着社交媒体的重要性与日俱增，白宫方面甚至鼓励参观者参与Twitter上的”#参观白宫“话题讨论，分享自己的经历。根据官方指南，参观者可以使用镜头不超过3英寸的相机。
　　But The White House warns that visitors must ensure that their photography does not interferewith the enjoyment of other guests on the tour. And while it gave no specific reason for thesudden change there are still a few things that guests are not permitted to do. Video cameras,including action camcorders, cameras with detachable lenses, tablets, tripods, monopods andcamera sticks are not allowed. Flash photography and live-streaming are also still prohibited.
　　不过，白宫方面提醒，参观者拍照的前提是不影响其他人的参观兴致。白宫方面未透露突然取消拍照禁令的具体原因。游客仍需留心一些参观注意事项：禁止使用摄影机，包括便携式摄像机、镜头可拆卸的摄影机、平板电脑、三脚架、单脚架、自拍杆。也不允许使用闪光灯和流媒体直播。
