疑因学业压力和偏执症发作。曾在2018年参加剑桥中国夏令营项目。
据英媒报道，上周四，一名剑桥大学生物系大二女生在马达加斯加实习期间，在飞机飞行途中撞开机舱门，挣脱同伴的阻拦跳下千米高空而身亡。
Cambridge University student Alana Cutland, 19, broke open an airplane door and jumped to her death in Madagascar while fighting off her friend's desperate attempts to save her, police said.
据警方消息，19岁的剑桥大学学生阿拉娜·卡特兰在马达加斯加撞开飞机舱门，跳机身亡，当时朋友拼命想要抓住她，但她还是挣脱了。
The second-year Biological Natural Sciences student, from Milton Keynes, died after plunging 5,000ft from the plane while on a study trip.
阿拉娜来自米尔顿凯恩斯，是生物自然科学系二年级学生。在一次学术旅行途中她从飞机上坠落5000英尺(约合1524米)身亡。
Her friend and fellow British tourist Ruth Johnson battled to save her for several minutes.
同行的英国朋友露丝·约翰逊奋力营救了她几分钟。
Ruth and the pilot both grabbed onto Alana's leg to try and keep her inside the plane as it soared above the east African country.
当时飞机正在这个东非国家上空飞行，露丝和飞行员都抓住了阿拉娜的腿，想要把她拽回飞机里。
However, Alana managed to free herself from their 'exhausted' grip and jumped to her death.
然而，阿拉娜还是设法从他们“精疲力尽”的手中挣脱出去，跳机身亡。

难以想象，阿拉娜遭受了多大的痛苦，能让她义无反顾地挣脱别人的救助从千里高空坠落。
警察透露，这次休学旅行是阿拉娜自己掏钱去的，但结果似乎不怎么理想，而且途中她还遭受了5次偏执症发作('paranoia attacks')。
当地警长Sinola Nomenjahary在听取露丝和飞行员的描述后，对事发现场进行了还原。
He said: 'The Cessna C168 aircraft was taking off from Anjajavy with three people aboard, including Ms Johnson, Alana and the pilot.
他说：“这架Cessna C168飞机是从Anjajavy起飞的，机上有三人，包括约翰逊(露丝)女士、阿拉娜女士和飞行员。”
'After 10 minutes of flight, Alana undid her seatbelt and unlocked the right door of the plane and tried to get out.
“起飞10分钟后，阿拉娜解开安全带，打开飞机右侧舱门，试图跳机。”
'Ms Johnson fought for five minutes trying to hold her, but when she was exhausted and out of breath she let go.
“约翰逊(露丝)女士为抱住她挣扎了五分钟，但当她筋疲力尽上气不接下气时手就松开了。”
'Alana then intentionally fell from an aircraft at 1130 meters above sea level.
“阿拉娜随后从海拔1130米的飞机上坠落。”

在一份声明中，家人表示阿拉娜是“一位聪明、独立的年轻女子”，还是学校舞蹈社团的副主席。她具有冒险精神，不论对谁都很亲切。失去这么“出色的女儿”让他们心碎。
英媒还提及，阿拉娜去年曾来中国参加夏令营，而一个中国学生对她说的话成为她此行最深的记忆。
The second-year student had a passion for travelling and last year completed the Cambridge Summer Schools in China (CSSC) programme.
在读大二的她热爱旅游，去年还完成了剑桥中国夏令营(CSSC)项目。
In a blog about her experience on CSSC, Ms Cutland said the highlight of her trip was one young student telling her she had “inspired her to be a scientist when she grew up”.
