Misconduct：不正当的行为_新闻热词

　今年10月18日，白俄罗斯全民公决结果揭晓，总统亚历山大·卢卡申科可能继续留在他已经坐了10年的总统宝座上。但是，这一结果并不为西方国家所乐见，美国于18日发表声明，谴责白俄罗斯的选举是“不公”的，并没有使选民真正得到表达意愿和自由选择的机会。

　新华社报道如下：

　the united states on monday criticized the belarus elections for so-called "electoral misconduct", saying "it does not look like the voters of belarus were given a fair choice or a fair chance to express their choice."

　"the election was seriously flawed, didn't meet standards," state department spokesman richard boucher told a regular news briefing.

　"we deeply regret that the belorussian people were kept from freely and fairly expressing their will," boucher said.

　　misconduct表示“不正当的行为”，在此反映了对选举公正性的质疑。此外，misconduct还有“处置失当；管理不善；行为轻佻、不检点”等意思。例如：she sued for divorce on the grounds of her husbands alleged with his secretary.（她以其夫与秘书有染为由提起离婚诉讼。）
