Apple on Tuesday sent colorful invites for a Sept. 10 event at the company’s headquarters in Cupertino, Calif., a big hint that the iPhone maker plans to unveil a new line of smartphones that breaks away from its traditional black-and-white color scheme。

　　苹果公司已在周二发出彩色邀请函，确认将于9月10日在苹果公司总部加利福尼亚州库比蒂诺举行发布会。市场广泛预计该公司将在此次发布会上推出下一代iPhone智能手机，突破传统黑白两色设计。

　　"This should brighten everyone’s day," the invitation reads. The event starts at 1 p.m. Rumors about a Sept. 10 event emerged last month when All Things D, citing sources familiar with Apple’s plans, reported that Apple would be unveiling the next edition of the iPhone on that date。

　　邀请函上写道：“这一天，注定是光彩夺目的一天”。发布会将在下午1点开始。美国科技博客AllThingsD曾在上月报道称，苹果公司将在9月10日召开发布会。据此前的传闻和曝光消息称，苹果公司将在此次发布会上推出下一代iPhone系列。

　　The invitation features a white Apple logo against a background of colorful circles, lending credibility to the rumors that the next iPhone, widely referred to as the iPhone 5S, will come in several new colors. In recent weeks, rumors have been swirling that the iPhone 5S will come in gold and graphite color options, alongside the existing white and black models。

　　邀请函的设计是白色苹果公司图标和彩色圆圈背景，证明此前传言下一代iPhone手机，即广为人知的iPhone5S将推出多种色彩的消息正确无误。最近几周，有人传言说iPhone5S还将推出金色和石墨色的外观供人选择。

　　Apple insider Sonny Dickson last week published a gallery of photos on his website, showing what he claims is the new "gray or graphite color with black trim." Meanwhile, rumors about the gold iPhone ramped up last month when several credible news outlets confirmed that Cupertino will indeed add a champagne-hued color option to its iPhone lineup. Other iPhone 5S rumors tip a new A7 chip and a convex home button with a space for a fingerprint sensor。

　　苹果公司知情人士索尼·迪克森上周在其网站上发不一系列照片，展示出他所说的新型“灰色和石墨色中带着黑色装点”。同时，上月还有传言说iPhone会推出金色手机，后有几家高信誉度新闻媒体报道苹果公司的确会出品一款香槟色调手机，证实了这一传言。还有其他消息称，新版A7芯片和凸出的主页按钮以及指纹识别技术都会亮相发布会。

　　The colorful circles may also be a nod to the iPhone’s lower-cost cousin, dubbed the iPhone 5C, which Apple is also rumored to be prepping for release. According to recent reports, the iPhone 5C may be priced at around $399 off-contract and come with at least five multi-colored back enclosures, including blue, red, yellow, green, and white。

　　邀请函上的多彩圆圈也证实，iPhone低价版手机即iPhone5C也会出现在发布会上。此前也有传言说苹果公司将举行iPhone 5C发布会。根据最近报道，无合约版iPhone 5C售价大概在399美元左右，机身后盖至少有5种颜色，包括蓝色、红色、黄色、绿色和白色。
