英国石油公司工作服万圣节热销

（单词翻译）

    An oil-splattered BP（英国石油公司） engineer's boiler¹ suit has become one of the most successful Halloween costumes in the United States.
    More than 10,000 of the outfits² have been sold in the approach to this year's October 31 holiday, which Americans are renowned³ for celebrating elaborately.
    Its manufacturer（制造商） claimed the success of the costume showed people across the US remained angry at the oil giant for its handling of the Deepwater（深海的） Horizon disaster earlier this year.
    An estimated 185 million gallons of oil were spilt into the Gulf⁴ of Mexico after an explosion in April on the BP rig, which also killed 11 workers.
    "The Halloween business reflects the world we live in," said Alan Geller, the executive vice-president of Fun World. "We like to add a bit of social commentary to the celebrations.""The holiday is about horror, and people are horrified⁵ at BP's actions," he told The Daily Telegraph. "Several lives and billions of dollars from people's livelihoods⁶ were lost."Mr Geller said the New York firm, which also created the ghost mask used in the Scream films, had been inundated⁷ with orders for the costumes from shops and websites across the country.
    He promised to donate some of the company's profits from the boiler suits to a charity aimed at helping⁸ people who had lost out due to the oil spill.（本文由在线英语听力室整理编辑）
