翻译下这段吧

Less Jupiter than Icarus, Emmanuel Macron came crashing down this week. On June 19th French voters did something that was last seen over 30 years ago: they denied a newly elected president a majority in the National Assembly. It is not quite impossible to govern without one, but for the next five years Mr Macron will be scratching around for the votes he needs to get anything done. That is bad news for France—and for Europe too, which sorely lacks a leader of global stature. Angela Merkel left the field last winter, and the man who had hoped to reshape a continent after her departure will have his work cut out just keeping his own house in something that resembles order.

俗语：“飞得越高摔得越惨。”法国总统马克龙本周轰然摔倒。6月19日，法国选民做了一件30多年来的首遭事情：他们否决了新当选总统在国民议会中的绝对多数席位。就执政而言，没有获得绝对多数席位并非重要，但在接下来的五年，马克龙将四处寻找他需要的选票来完成任何事情。欧洲现在极其缺乏一位具有全球影响力的领导者，因为这对法国来说不是好消息，对欧洲来说也是如此。去年冬天，默克尔离场，而这位希望在她离场后重塑欧洲大陆的男人将面临工作受阻，让他不得不投入更多精力处理国内事务。

Notes:

Icarus 伊卡洛斯（希腊文：Ίκαρος英文名称：Icarus）是希腊神话中代达罗斯的儿子，与代达罗斯使用蜡和羽毛造的翼逃离克里特岛时，他因飞得太高双翼上的蜡遭太阳融化跌落水中丧生，被埋葬在一个海岛上。为了纪念伊卡洛斯，埋葬伊卡洛斯的海岛命名为伊卡利亚。法国内政部6月19日晚公布的初步统计结果显示，在当天举行的法国国民议会选举第二轮投票中，总统马克龙所在的中间派联盟“在一起”虽然领先，但未能获得国民议会绝对多数席位。法国国民议会选举又称立法选举，执政党能否在国民议会中占据绝对多数席位，将影响新总理人选任命及政府的组成，也影响执政党今后施政的走向和效率。
