还记得4年前席卷全球的冰桶挑战（The Ice Bucket Challenge）吗？最近，一个与之相似的柠檬脸挑战（Lemon Face Challenge）在国外社交网站走红。参与者需要吃一大口柠檬，录下自己的反应发到网上，并点名他人参与挑战。之前的“冰桶挑战”是为了救助患有渐冻症的人发起的，那“柠檬脸挑战”又有什么目的呢？下面来看看今天的日常英语资讯吧~
一、“柠檬脸挑战”的发起者People are eating wedges of lemons and posting the funny faces they make online in an effort to raise awareness for people suffering from a terminal form of brain cancer.

“柠檬脸挑战”要求参与者吃掉一大块柠檬，录下自己的反应，并发到网上向他人挑战。
According to the Washington Post, the new challenge is inspired by an organization called Aubreigh’s Army, which supports the fight against Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG), an aggressive type of terminal brain cancer.
据《华盛顿邮报》报道，这个新挑战由“Aubreigh’s Army”发起，该组织为扩散型内因性脑桥神经胶质瘤（DIPG）患者提供帮助，DIPG是一种恶性晚期脑癌。

我们向大家寻求帮助，是为了确保Aubreigh和她的爸爸妈妈有条件拿起武器与病魔抗争。为了你身边与可怕的DIPG斗争的孩子，为了和其他癌症斗争的朋友，或者为感恩自己拥有健康的身体而献出爱心吧。不管是什么原因，加入我们吧！
