<< review queue entry 56913 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> The definition seems lacking. In particular, there is no adjective gloss to suit an example like LA's 劇情很老套, or this line in a story I just read: 第一个男人叫志鸿，说得老套一点就是青梅竹马，... ------------------------------- TP 此外，丁馬成覺得南管的曲詞內容總是風花雪月等老套，脫離現代人的生活 He also felt that nanguan had gotten into a terrible rut with hackneyed, sentimental lyrics that did not speak to the concerns of modern society. 重複暴漲暴跌的老套 vegetable prices are sure to shoot up, and the old cycle of yo-yoing prices will start all over again 最後一點，聽起來有點老套，但許多時候卻受用無窮，那就是「明天會更好」。 Finally, there is something that may seem a little cliched but is often very useful ... 故事結尾仍不脫愛情悲劇老套，藍宇意外身亡，讓捍東與觀眾唏噓一片。 The tail-end of the story doesn't escape romantic cliche, however, as Lan Yu loses his life unexpectedly, leaving Han Dong and the audience sobbing. 見網友怕遇到「恐龍」而請朋友在約會中途打電話來隨時解圍的做法早就老套了，現在都是見了不喜歡就直接說。 If the person they were meeting turned out to be unattractive, the call would provide the needed excuse to cut the meeting short. But that trick is now a thing of the past; nowadays people will tell you straight out if they don't like you. 在老套的故事、臉譜化的人物之外，設計了出其不意的細節、別出心裁的表現手法以及誇張的肢體表演，很有撕下偽裝、走下神壇、回歸平民的味道。 The play brings marvelously unexpected details out of well-worn themes and figures, using startling dramatic techniques and exaggerated body language to shed pretense and speak to the common man. |
