The shortest man in the world able to walk has died in Rome at the age of 21, according to Britain's Guinness World Records.
据吉尼斯世界纪录,世界上最矮的具备行走能力的人死于罗马,年仅21岁。

He Pingping stood two feet and five inches tall and weighed seven kilograms. He died after being admitted to hospital in the Italian capital with chest pains.
何平平身高2英尺5英寸(0.7米左右),体重为7公斤。此前,他因胸部疼痛而住进了意大利罗马的一家医院,不想一去不返。

From a small village in North China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, He became quite a celebrity after he was crowned the world's shortest man by Guinness in 2008.
何平平来自于中国北部内蒙古自治区的一个小村庄。自从2008年,吉尼斯把他评为世界上最矮的人之后,他声名鹊起,成了名人。

Despite his height, he became a chain smoker when he was seven years old and smoked at least one pack of cigarettes every day.
别看他个子矮,从7岁起他就成了老烟枪,每天至少要抽上一包烟。

He weighed 1.1 pounds after birth, and stopped growing after he turned 18. As he was so small, his parents named him Pingping, meaning "wine bottle" in English.
他出生时体重为1.1磅,到了18岁就不长了。就因为他长的这么小,他的父母给他取名叫做平平,相当于英语里的“wine bottle”(酒瓶子)。
