中情局长婚外情女主角曝光 始于一起跑步

The woman at the center of the extramarital affair that led to the resignation of the head of the Central Intelligence Agency is a highly accomplished, extremely competitive person who got to know the high-profile general, in part, by going running with him in Afghanistan.

美国中央情报局(Central Intelligence Agency)局长大卫·彼得雷乌斯(David Petraeus)因婚外情辞职，这一事件的女主角是一位很有成就、极度好胜的女性。在一定程度上，她是通过在阿富汗跟这位将军一起跑步逐渐了解了他。

Paula Broadwell met Gen. David Petraeus six years ago, when she introduced herself after he gave a speech at Harvard's Kennedy School, where Ms. Broadwell was working on a master's degree.

宝拉·布洛德威尔(Paula Broadwell)六年前与彼得雷乌斯相识。当时彼得雷乌斯在哈佛大学肯尼迪学院(Harvard's Kennedy School)发表演讲，正在该校攻读硕士学位的布洛德威尔随后向他作了自我介绍。

She now lives in Charlotte, N.C. with her radiologist husband and two children, according to an online biography page associated with her book about Petraeus, 'All In: The Education of General David Petraeus,' which was taken offline shortly after her name was linked to the scandal.

据布洛德威尔写的《彼得雷乌斯传》(All In: The Education of General David Petraeus)的在线作者简介页面显示，她目前与做放射科医生的丈夫和两个孩子住在北卡罗来纳州夏洛特市。在她的名字与丑闻牵连到一起后不久该书就被拿下了。

Ms. Broadwell was scheduled to have a 40th birthday party Saturday night at her brother's house in Washington, D.C. An email sent Friday announced the party had been canceled.

布洛德威尔原定上周六晚在华盛顿她哥哥家庆祝40岁生日。上周五发出的一封电子邮件宣布生日聚会取消。

Ms. Broadwell is, like Mr. Petraeus, a West Point graduate, according to the online biography. There, she excelled at track, and later competed in triathlons.

据在线作者简介显示，与彼得雷乌斯一样，布洛德威尔也毕业于西点军校(West Point)。她在西点军校时径赛成绩优秀，后来曾参加铁人三项赛。

Though both the general and his biographer started their careers in the military, Ms. Broadwell, a North Dakota native, embarked on a solely scholarly career─one in which her main focus of study was the military, and Mr. Petraeus specifically.

尽管彼得雷乌斯和他的传记作者布洛德威尔开始时都是从事的军事，但北达科他州人布洛德威尔后来走上了一条纯学者的职业道路，她的主要研究重点是军事，特别是彼得雷乌斯。

Her academic study is what first put her in the orbit of Mr. Petraeus. After introducing herself to Mr. Petraeus in 2006, she described her research and he gave her his card. She later sought his advice for her Ph.D. dissertation.

是她的学术研究使她开始进入彼得雷乌斯的圈子。2006年她向彼得雷乌斯作了自我介绍后，向他讲了自己的研究，而他则把名片给了她。她后来曾就自己的博士论文向他征询过建议。

When Mr. Petraeus assumed the command of the war in Afghanistan in 2010, she decided to turn her dissertation research into a book. He provided her unusual access to his world in Afghanistan, where she made six trips over roughly a year.

2010年彼得雷乌斯成为阿富汗战争指挥官后，她决定将自己的博士文论研究写成一部书。他不同寻常地向她详细介绍了自己在阿富汗的生活和工作。她在大约一年的时间中去了阿富汗六次。

'I'm not sure he took me seriously, but I showed up,'' she told Jon Stewart in an interview earlier this year on Comedy Central's 'The Daily Show.'

今年早些时候她在Comedy Central频道“每日秀(The Daily Show)栏目的一次访谈中对斯图尔特(Jon Stewart)说，我不能肯定他是否把我当回事，但我还是去了阿富汗。

As a much-scrutinized military leader, Mr. Petraeus was known to go running with journalists, and he also did so with Ms. Broadwell.

作为一名受到严格审视的军事领袖，众所周知，彼得雷乌斯常常与记者一起跑步，他也和布洛德威尔一起跑过步。

'I thought I'd test him, but he was going to test me─it ended up being a test for both of us since we both ran pretty quickly,'' she told Mr. Stewart. 'That was the foundation of our relationship.'

布洛德威尔对斯图尔特说，我以为我会考验他，但他却要考验我，结果这对我们两个都是一种考验，因为我们两个跑得都很快。那为我们的关系打下了基矗

In her biography of Mr. Petraeus, Ms. Broadwell describes in detail Mr. Petraeus's courtship of his wife, Hollister 'Holly' Knowlton.

在布洛德威尔写的《彼得雷乌斯传》中，她详细描写了彼得雷乌斯追求太太霍利斯特·诺尔顿(Hollister "Holly" Knowlton)的过程。

'Soon, the two would find themselves commuting to each other's colleges whenever time allowed, sometimes braving fierce New York snowstorms to spend time together,' Ms. Broadwell wrote. 'Petraeus would sneak in the side door of the superintendent's home aside the Plain, the academy's parade field, to visit Holly when she made the trip back to West Point.'

布洛德威尔写道，不久，两人就开始寻找任何可能的机会去对方的学校见面，有时为能够相聚，还要抵抗纽约猛烈的暴风雪。霍利回西点军校探亲时，彼得雷乌斯会从西点军校阅兵场旁校长家的侧门溜进去看她。

Efforts to reach Ms. Broadwell were unsuccessful. A spokeswoman for her publisher, Penguin, didn't immediately comment.

记者未能联系到布洛德威尔。她的发行商企鹅出版社(Penguin)的发言人没有立即置评。

Ms. Broadwell is now a research associate at Harvard's Center for Public Leadership and she continues to work on her dissertation as a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of War Studies at King's College London. Her dissertation is on innovation in the 101st Airborne Division in Northern Iraq in 2003, which then- Maj. Gen. Petraeus led.

布洛德威尔目前在哈佛大学公共领导力中心担任研究助理，她仍在继续写伦敦大学国王学院(King's College London)战争研究系的博士论文。她的论文是关于2003年伊拉克北部101空降师的改革创新。当时该师由时任少将的彼得雷乌斯领导。
