苏轼   明月几时有？把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙，今夕是何年？我欲乘风归去，又恐琼楼玉宇，高处不胜寒。起舞弄清影，何似在人间。 转朱阁，低绮户，照无眠。不应有恨，何事长向别时圆？人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺，此事古难全。但愿人长久，千里共婵娟。  许渊冲先生译作 How long will the full moon appear? Wine cup in hand, I ask the sky. I do n

杜甫   戍鼓断人行，秋边一雁声。 露从今夜白，月是故乡明。 有弟皆分散，无家问死生。 寄书长不达，况乃未休兵。   THINKING OF MY BROTHERS ON A MOONLIT NIGHT 许渊冲 译   War drums break people's journey drear; A swan honks1 on autumn fr

最近我的小外甥特别高兴。他今年铲雪赚了不少钱，正好可以用这些钱来买新的电子游戏。今年下了不少雪，所以他也赚得很多。可去年冬天天气就特别暖和，所以他一点活儿都没有。在英语里，我们可以用一个习惯用语来形容这种情形: feast or famine。Feast是盛宴的意思，而famine是饥荒，feast or famine意思就是走极端，要么多得要命，要么少得可怜。上面的例子里，我外甥的工作要不就是多得数不过来，要不就是一点都没有。 It's been either feast or fam

昨天去我姐姐家，看到我的小侄女噘着嘴不高兴。一问才知道她得重新考期中考。为什么呢？原来，他们班好多人在最近的考试中都得了好成绩，老师怀疑有人漏题，所以全部人都要重考。这让我想到一个习惯用语。那就是: foul-play.Foul play这个短语的意思是"不正当的行为，严重犯规"。就像上面提到的情况，老师认为不可能所有人成绩都这么好，所以怀疑有人舞弊。She suspected foul play. 在下面的例子里，一名公司主管谈到他看到办公室一团混乱之后的反应。我们一起来听
