A Canadian teenager has struck the jackpot after buying her first lottery ticket to mark her 18th birthday.
加拿大一位青少年在购买她有生以来第一张彩票以纪念她的18岁生日之后，却幸运地中了头彩。
Charlie Lagarde, from the province of Quebec, bought the scratch ticket along with a bottle of champagne to celebrate turning 18 on 14 March.
3月14日，来自魁北克省的查理·拉加德购买了一张刮刮卡彩票和一瓶香槟，以庆祝18岁生日。
She won, and had the choice between taking a CAD 1m lump sum or earning 1,000 a week for life.
没想到她竟然中奖了，并且可以选择一次性领取100万加元的总额或者每周分次领取1000加元。

After consulting with a financial adviser, the young winner opted for the 1,000 because it is not taxed.
在咨询财务顾问之后，这位年轻的赢家选择了领取1000元的选项，因为这不征税。
"It's without taxes so it's equivalent to a salary of more than 100,000 a year, so it's a great start in life for that young lady," Patrice Lavoie, a spokesman for the lottery corporation, told the Canadian Press.
该彩票公司的发言人帕特里斯·拉维伊向加拿大媒体透露：“这是免税的，所以等于每年可领超过10万加币。对一个人生刚开始的女孩来说是非常好的起点。”
Lagarde says she wants to use the money to travel and put it towards her education. "I want to study photography. One of my dreams would be to work for National Geographic."
拉加德表示，她想用这笔钱去旅行，并将其用于她的教育。“我想学习摄影，我的一个梦想是为《国家地理》工作。”
