<< review queue entry 69622 - submitted by 'zby3952' >> example:他的书架上摆了很多书，但是他从来不看它们，这些书对他来说就是一个摆设（There are many books on his bookshelf, but he never reads them, these books are just a display to him） ------------------------------------- Editor: 我看了眼那抽屉，又东张西望地看起屋里其它的摆设。 I looked down at the drawer, then let my eyes roam about the room to see how it was laid out. 什么门牌多少号，家里有几间房，什么摆设养了狗啊猫的。 that's where he folks live, door such-and-such, number so-and-so, x number of rooms furnished with this and that, plus a dog or a cat or whatever A: 我在布置房间啊，听说我这屋风水不好，我得改变下室内摆设转转运气。 I'm decorating the room! I heard the fengshui in this room was no good. I need to turn the luck around in here, by rearranging the furnishings. 十七世紀以後，整體設計的概念出現，傢具、牆飾開始為特定的房間量身訂製。此時傢具通常完全靠牆擺設，成為牆面的一部份，牆面、椅墊，以及後來出現的窗簾，花色都講求一致。因此牆面的裝飾，扮演極重要的角色。 After the 17th century the idea of the room designed as an entity appeared, with furniture and wall decoration being ordered for and fitted to the room. At this time furniture was usually made to become a part of the wall design. The wall covering, cushions and curtains that were to appear somewhat later all had to be en suite. The wall decoration thus came to play an especially important role. 科技進步的結果，家家戶戶無不擺設各種新式家具、使用「高效能」電器用品、日用品，殊不知這些全都是污染源。 As a result of technological and scientific advance, every household has various kinds of new furniture, "high-efficiency" appliances and daily-use items-all of which are potential sources of pollution. 為了避免過敏原的滋生，有氣喘兒的家庭，家裡擺設力求簡單、環境保持清潔， In order to minimize allergens in the home, families with asthmatics aim for cleanliness and simplicity in decoration. 林衡道又說，「大凡台灣的宅第，二進之後就不能看了，因為以前是窮人，雖然看過富有人家的外表，但絕不可能進入內宅，所以裡面的擺設、佈置一概不知，只能憑想像……」 Lin also says: "Most rich houses in Taiwan look dreadful once you get beyond the first courtyard, because their owners started life in poverty, and although they had seen the outside of rich people's houses, they certainly had no opportunity to go into the family living quarters. Thus they had no idea of how the inside was arranged, and could only use their imagination. . . ." 獵人在滿足了追逐動物的樂趣後，帶著戰利品──象牙和象腿返家，象牙做為客廳擺設，象腿是現成的雨傘桶、字紙簍。 After satiating their desire to stalk wild beasts, hunters would return home with the "spoils of war"-elephant tusks and elephant feet. The tusks would be used to decorate living rooms while the feet would be made into umbrella holders or wastepaper baskets. 白貓擺設在名為「貓屋」的隔間，卻不見她養的虎斑貓「妙妙」、三色貓「瘦瘦」和「Cubic」的蹤影。 Though the white clay cats are on display in the "Cat Room," there is no sign of the "real" cats Lin raises here-tiger-striped "Miao-miao" and the tri-colored pair "Skinny" and "Cubic." 為了和貓和平共處，家中沒有地毯，擺設盡量放低。 In order to coexist peacefully with the cats, there are no rugs in Lin's house and an effort is made to keep furnishings low to the ground. 從品茗禮儀、主客對應，精心準備的茶道具、茶食、瓶花、茶席等的擺設，看起來比日常生活更講究的目的，「是為了將茶世界與現實生活的距離拉開，」她說。 The purpose of the extremely meticulous arrangements-from the rituals and the patterned exchanges between hosts and guests, and the utensils, prepared with loving attention to detail, to the tea snacks, flowers, and even the arrangement of the tea mats-"is to create a distance between the world of tea and the mundane world," she says. 台灣境內數十萬名外勞帶來不少商機，成為英文報的大客戶，台北市聖克里斯多福教堂前的人行道上，每到假日就有人來此擺設英文報攤。 The several hundred thousand foreign workers in Taiwan create many business opportunities and comprise a large share of the readership of English newspapers. On holidays, English periodical hawkers gather on the sidewalk in front of St. Christopher's Church in Taipei. 結構是建物的支撐骨架，而建物內部的平面設計和家具擺設，同樣可能提供保命機會、也可能成為猙獰的奪命殺手。 A building's structural framework is the skeleton which holds it up, but the internal layout and even the arrangement of furniture can also provide opportunities for survival, or alternatively turn homes and offices into death traps. 地震過後的停電期間，許多商家在貨架上遍插蠟燭、照常營業，有些餐廳更在每張桌子上擺設燭台，準備隨時來場「燭光約會」。During the power cuts following the 21 September earthquake, many shopkeepers put up candles on their shelves and carried on trading as usual, while some restaurateurs put a candlestick on every table and began offering "candlelight rendezvous." 娃娃屋的背面通常有鏤空的透視效果，可以直接看到屋內的擺設， Dollhouse miniatures typically feature a cutaway rear wall that exposes the interior to view. 「渡假小屋看電視」是袖珍博物館中最受歡迎的作品之一，裡面所擺設的是全世界最小的電視，只有一．八吋。 Gentleman's Heaven (left) is one of the most popular exhibits in the museum. It boasts the world's smallest working television, with a 1.8-inch screen! 從家中的擺設到貼身的「配備」， Both the way his house is decorated and the accessories on his person reveal a personality that pays attention to the smallest of details. 家中閣樓特別規劃出來的空間，擺設了許多童書，讓社區的孩子們自由借閱。 The interior of the house features plenty of children's books for the kids to borrow and read. |
