Mrs May said in a statement in Downing Street that she would resign as Tory leader on Friday June 7, triggering a leadership contest the following week which former foreign secretary Boris Johnson is favourite to win.翻译：她在唐宁街发表声明称，她将于6月7日星期五辞去保守党党魁一职。这将在接下来一周引发一场首相争夺战，而前英国外交大臣鲍里斯约翰逊(Boris Johnson)取胜的呼声最高。3. The prime minister said she would continue in a caretaker role until a new Conservative leader is elected; that process involving Tory MPs and party activists is expected to be wrapped up before the end of July.翻译：她表示，她将继续担任“看守内阁首相”，直到选出新的保守党领袖。保守党议员和政党活动人士都会参与这个过程，而该过程预计将在7月底之前结束。4. Mrs May became prime minister in 2016, replacing David Cameron after having previously served for six years as home secretary. She promised to tackle “burning injustices” in society, but leaves office with only a scant political legacy.翻译：特雷莎梅于2016年成为首相，接替卡梅伦，此前她曾担任内政部长6年。她承诺要解决社会中“燃烧的不公正”，但下台时，政治遗产很少。你的感悟：据今日俄罗斯报道，当地时间24日，英国首相特雷莎梅发表讲话，宣布将于6月7日辞去首相一职。英国“脱欧”遥遥无期，面对来自各方的压力，对于她的表态，内阁呼吁她下台的保守党后座议员称，希望即使“脱欧”议案再次被否决，特雷莎梅也应承诺尽快离职，使保守党能尽早开始继任者竞选、接任的活动。 截至目前，议员们已连续3次否决了脱欧协议草案，对于最新一版协议各方也都不看好。工党方面表示，新版本是对现有草案的“重复”。英国保守党成员说，现在提供的新版草案“比以前更糟糕”。英国政府23日宣布，推迟原定于6月3日当周进行的新版“脱欧”协议议会投票。英国“脱欧”该何去何从？ 本文节选自 Financial Times（金融时报） 09“脱欧”失败，英国首相特雷莎梅宣布辞职课程导读 Theresa May resigns after Brexit failureTheresa May has announced her resignation as Conservative leader（保守党领导人）, clearing the way for a new UK prime minister to pick up the formidable challenge of delivering Brexit and reuniting a shattered party.Mrs May said in an emotional statement in Downing Street（唐宁街） that she would resign as Tory leader on Friday June 7, triggering a leadership contest that will start the following week which former foreign secretary Boris Johnson is favourite to win.The prime minister said she would continue in a caretaker role until a new Conservative leader is elected; that process involving Tory MPs and party activists is expected to be wrapped up before the end of July.Mrs May became prime minister in 2016, replacing David Cameron
