<< review queue entry 70897 - submitted by 'vincentbaey' >> https://cidian.911cha.com/dHQzNA==.html 新世纪汉英大词典第二版2016年 ------------------------------ Editor: 单单是知道它就可能会 给你带来杀身之祸。 Just knowing that can get you killed. 你认为是大方给他引来杀身之祸？ So, do you think his generosity got him killed? 不要主动联系我 否则会为我们招致杀身之祸 Never contact me. You will get us both killed. 長著一對人見人愛的長牙，得時時提防殺身之禍！ [the elephant] has grown a pair of ivory tusks which are admired by everyone, and so must constantly be on his guard against being killed. 傀儡是中國最早的偶人表演。有人主張傀儡源起於陪葬所用的俑；但以偶人演出，也早見於記載。在《列子》湯問篇中，描述傀儡演師以木偶向周穆王的侍妾拋媚眼，而差點招徠殺身之禍。 Puppet theater is China's earliest form of performance using effigies. Some people maintain that puppets were originally tomb figurines but there are also early records of them being used for performances. The Lieh-tzu, for example, records how a puppet master used wooden idols to ogle the concubine of King Mu of Chou, for which he narrowly avoided death |

<< review queue entry 70898 - submitted by 'vincentbaey' >> https://cidian.911cha.com/dG9kbw==.html -------------------------------- Editor: example 例如第一道「文天祥雞」就是美味的三杯雞。被供奉於孔廟東廡的文天祥，宋朝末年抗元失利，相傳被關在大都（今北京）土牢期間，常探監的一位老太太以陶缽加水、酒、油等做成三杯雞，經獄卒協助送進牢裡給文天祥吃。直到他殺身成仁，獄卒感佩其精神，每年在文天祥就義日到其江西故鄉煮三杯雞奠祭，於是流傳開來。 For example, the first dish, Wen Tian-xiang Chicken, has the delicious flavors of the popular Taiwanese dish Three Cup Chicken. Wen Tianxiang (1236-1283), one of the three great heroes of the Song dynasty, is enshrined in the east wing of the Confucius Temple in Taipei. According to legend, when he was imprisoned in a dungeon, an old lady often visited him, and through the assistance of prison guards brought him Three Cup Chicken, made with chicken, water, rice wine and cooking oil cooked in a ceramic pot. After Wen was executed, the prison guards cooked the same dish as an offering on the anniversary of his death because of their admiration for his spirit of justice. The story spread and has carried on to this day. |

Pointing to what was obviously him through Auntie Ch'eng and what was still more obviously me through "Auntie," [the author called her mother "Auntie" because she had been adopted out], Grandmother said "Why don't we Yangs and Ch'engs strengthen our ties further by adding match on match? Let us have these two grandchildren betrothed to each other, so long as one is a boy and the other is a girl." >> - from "An Autobiography of a Chinese Woman: Put Into English By Her Husband Yuenren Chao" (1947) (which I just happen to be reading at the moment) by Buwei Yang Chao ~ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buwei_Yang_Chao 2) 指腹为婚又称“胎婚”，是两家主妇同时怀孕，孩子尚在母腹中孕育，父母双方便指腹相约，如果产下一男一女，待其成年后就结成夫妻。指腹为婚时，双方还常常割下两家主妇的衣襟，以此作为信物，因此，指腹为婚又被称为“割襟”或“割衫襟”。 https://www.163.com/dy/article/F35U8BNR0523D0N4.html |

<< review queue entry 66553 - submitted by 'vincentbaey' >> 新世纪汉英词典（1997）外语教学与研究出版社（New Century Chinese-English Dictionary） -------------------------- Editor: 除了消磨光陰，梁實秋認為，象棋之所以能使許多人樂此不彼，因為它頗合於人類好鬥的本能，是一種「鬥智不鬥力」的遊戲。「而人總是要鬥的，與其和人爭權奪利，還不如在棋盤上多佔幾個官，與其招搖撞騙，還不如在棋盤上抽上一車。」 Besides being a pastime, Liang argues, chess also provides a healthy outlet for man's warlike nature, turning the primitive struggle for survival into a battle of wits: "Man is combative and tricky by nature. To win a victory on the chessboard is better than to win in a struggle for political power; to fool an opponent by crushing his chariot through a double-play is better than to gain some economic advantage through false pretenses." 1982年，英國人丹斯格得到邱吉爾紀念獎助金贊助，從倫敦出發，靠著搭火車、巴士、卡車、走路等方式，橫越歐洲大陸來到伊斯坦堡，由土耳其進入阿拉伯世界的大馬士革；再穿越當時仇視西方的伊朗、內戰方殷的阿富汗、巴基斯坦，進入尚未對外開放的中國新疆。行前，丹斯格就先交待好「後事」，表明此行若有不測，都是自己的選擇；幸好他一路「招搖撞騙」、安全無虞地到了北京，最後經由香港回到英國，歷時18個月，只花了1,000英鎊（以今日匯率來估算，約為6萬元台幣）。 In 1982, the British writer Nick Danziger, with the support of a Winston Churchill Memorial Trust Fellowship, set off from London on an epic journey. Traveling by train, bus, lorry, and foot, he traversed Europe and reached Istanbul. From Turkey, he traveled to Damascus in the Arab world, and on through Iran, very hostile to Westerners at the time; through civil-war-wracked Afghanistan; Pakistan; and then on to Xinjiang in China, at the time not yet open to Westerners. Danziger eventually made his way, by hook and by crook, to Beijing. In the end, passing through Hong Kong, he returned to Britain. Over 18 months, he had spent a mere £1000. 故事描述一名強盜潛入寺廟後和住持串通，在警察不會注意的寺廟裡囤積和販賣非法酒品，住持召喚善男信女前來，招搖撞騙地賣酒賺錢，後來強盜太太也帶著兒子上廟求助，無意間讓詭計穿幫，劇尾以一個酗酒老爸的荒唐故事劃下句點。 The play tells the story of a bandit who sneaks into a temple and ends up colluding with its abbot. They store and sell the bandit's black-market alcohol from a place where the police would never think to look for it: the temple itself. The abbot even tricks the devout into helping sell the booze. Later, the bandit's wife inadvertently exposes the scheme when she seeks help for their child at the temple. The play closes with an absurd tale of a drunken father. In reality, Sri Lanka has had a serious problem with alcoholism for many years. 值得一提的是，他蒐集的點數本來可能遠不只此，只是在活動過程中，有人提醒邱相勳他的創舉其實是「違法」的。原來，根據「公益勸募條例」的規定，是不允許以個人名義進行公開勸募的，以免有人假公益之名招搖撞騙。 It's worth mentioning that he might easily have collected many more points than just mentioned, but in the course of the activity someone pointed out to Chiou that his method was technically illegal. It turned out that engaging in public-interest fundraising activities in an individual's name was forbidden under the Statute Governing Fundraising for Non-Profit Purposes, to prevent fraud. |
