HO CHI MINH CITY  - American movie star Angelina Jolie adopted her fourth child on Thursday, a Vietnamese boy from a Ho Chi Minh City orphanage.

来自胡志明市的报道—美国影星安吉丽娜·茱莉星期四领养了她的第四个孩子，一名来自胡志明市孤儿院的越南男孩。

Government officials said the boy was renamed Pax Thien Jolie and is almost three-and-a-half years old.

政府官员称这名男孩被重新起名为帕克斯·西恩-茱莉，快3岁半了。

The adoption will be final once U.S. embassy officials in Hanoi approve the paperwork. Jolie and Vietnamese officials have already signed adoption documents in Ho Chi Minh City.

美国在河内的使馆官员批准了文件后，领养将最终成行。安吉丽娜·茱莉和越南官员已经在胡志明市签订了领养文件。

"Everything went really well. It was a successful event this morning," said Nguyen Van Trung, director of the Tam Binh orphanage in the city, the communist-run Southeast Asian country's largest urban area with 8 million people.

“一切进展非常顺利。今天早上是一件成功的事情，”该市塔姆-宾孤儿院院长阮方中称，在这个由共产党领导的东南亚国家的最大城市里有800万人口。

"All she needs to do now is to travel to Hanoi to get the travel paperwork from the U.S. embassy for the boy."

“现在她需要做的就是去河内为这名男孩取得美国大使馆的旅游批文。”

Senior officials said Jolie's adoption had been speeded up, partly due to her celebrity status.

高级官员称安吉丽娜·茱莉的领养能够这么迅速地办理，部分是因为她的明星地位。

The child had been registered as Pham Quang Sang at the orphanage. Trung said the boy had been abandoned at birth at a local hospital and has been at the orphanage since 2003.

这名孩子在孤儿院的登记名字为范光桑。阮方中称这名男孩在出生后就被遗弃在当地一家医院，从2003年开始就一直在孤儿院。

Jolie took the boy with her to the Justice Department building in the city centre to sign the adoption documents. Her car left half an hour later.

安吉丽娜·茱莉带着这名男孩去了市中心的司法部大楼签订领养文件。她的车于半个小时后离开。

"She was very beautiful. She signed and had her photo taken," department official Dao Van Tran said outside the building.

“她非常漂亮。她签了字并留了影，”司法部官员饶万专在大楼外称。

Jolie has two adoptive children and a biological daughter with partner Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt.

安吉丽娜·茱莉有两个领养的孩子，并和其男友—好莱坞动作影星布拉德·皮特有一个亲生女儿。

She flew into the southern Vietnamese city on Wednesday night from Japan on a chartered plane. Her son Maddox and daughters Zahara and Shiloh Nouvel accompanied her.

她于星期三的晚上从日本乘机飞往这个越南南部城市。她的儿子马多克斯和女儿萨哈拉、希洛·洛威尔与她同行。

Jolie, 31, filed adoption papers in early March through an unidentified American agency without Pitt because under Vietnamese law, an unmarried couple may not adopt a child. Single people may adopt children under the law.

31岁的安吉丽娜·茱莉在3月上旬通过一家未透露的美国机构，在没有皮特的条件下提出了领养申请，因为根据越南法律，未婚夫妇不能领养小孩。单身者可以依法领养孩子。

In Vietnam, adoptions have been known to take as little as one month if background checks and issues of whether the adopting family can support a child are quickly resolved.

在越南，如果关于领养家庭是否有能力抚养孩子的背景调查和签发得以迅速解决，领养只会花一个月的时间。

However, the process can take six months or longer in some cases.

但是在一些情况下，这一过程可能要花六个月甚至更长时间。

Jolie and Pitt visited Ho Chi Minh City last November and met children at the orphanage.

安吉丽娜·茱莉和皮特去年11月访问了胡志明市，看望了孤儿院的孩子。

The couple say they have no plans to marry but are committed to raising their children together. Their biological daughter, Shiloh Nouvel, was born last year. Jolie adopted Maddox from Cambodia and Zahara from Ethiopia before her relationship with Pitt, who has now become their adoptive father.

这对情侣称他们没有结婚的计划，但他们决心一起抚养他们的孩子。他们的亲生女儿--希洛·洛威尔于去年出生。在和皮特—现成为他们养父的关系开始之前，安吉丽娜·茱莉领养了来自柬埔寨的马多克斯，来自埃塞俄比亚的萨哈拉。

The couple starred in the 2005 movie "Mr. & Mrs. Smith". They are also working together on the film "A Mighty Heart" about the killing of a U.S. journalist by Pakistani militants.

这对情侣联袂出演了2005年的电影“史密斯夫妇”。他们还共同出演了关于美国记者在巴基斯坦被武装分子杀害的电影“坚强的心”。

Jolie won an Oscar in 1999 for best supporting actress in "Girl, Interrupted". She starred in the 2001 movie "Tomb Raider" which was filmed in Cambodia, neighbouring Vietnam.

安吉丽娜·茱莉因在电影“移魂女郎”中的表现获得了1999年度奥斯卡最佳女配角奖。她于2001年出演了电影“古墓丽影”，该片在邻近越南的柬埔寨拍摄。
