郑爽写下100件恋爱小事,有一件很无奈……

2017-08-18 英语环球 英语环球ChinaPlus

郑爽的新书近日出版,书名也是非常直率,就叫《郑爽的书》。


她在书中写到一个人,“这是唯一想让我写进书里的。关于爱情的人,因为我欠他的太多太多……”

随后她用平实的语言,回忆了她和他之间的100件小事:

100件小事,都是我和你

31

我喜欢在你睡着的时候,一遍遍观察你,甚至一遍遍用手触摸每根眉毛的位置,就算以后老了瞎了也能清晰记得你的样子。

32

在你睡觉的时候,偷偷量好了你无名指的维度,想在某天给你个惊喜,大小刚刚好是不是会显得我很牛?

……

93

在微博浏览了关于他们对你的攻击,在那一刻起,我甚至讨厌自己的名气。

……

其中有一条颇为无奈,“在微博浏览了关于他们对你的攻击,在那一刻起,我甚至讨厌自己的名气。”


假如网络世界里能多一点暖心祝福,少一点言语攻击,两人牵手的路是否会变得好走一点?


如果可以爱屋及乌,喜欢ta,也一并喜欢ta的选择,是否会有不一样的结局?


我是猝不及防的分隔线

好吧,明星八卦暂时放下,听听曼玲老师用英文讲述“爱屋及乌”的典故。

爱屋及乌

Love me, love my dog


The last monarchy of the Shang Dynasty was more than 3000 years ago. The officials treated people very cruelly. Subsequently, a leader of the western Zhou rose up in arms and replaced the Shang Dynasty with the Zhou Dynasty.


After Zhou's victory, the king of the Zhou tribe asked his officials for advice on dealing with prisoners of war.



An official said, "I once heard that if you love someone, you are supposed to love even the crows on the roof of his house; if you hate someone, you should hate even the walls and the parapets of his home. The prisoners of war were enemies fighting against us. In my opinion, we'd better kill them all."


But the king didn't agree. Another official put forward this suggestion.


"I think we should treat the prisoners of war differently by dividing them into those who are guilty and those who are not. The guilty ones will be sentenced to death in order to avoid future disasters." 


The king didn't think like this either.


Then a third one said, "Your majesty, I think all the prisoners should be set free and sent back home to work in the fields and support themselves with their own labor. Moreover, you should keep the rules strictly for reward and punishment and treat your relatives, friends and even enemies impartially. The people are sure to believe in you if you administer our country with good morals and laws."


The king thought the official's proposal was quite reasonable so he accepted it.


As a result, the domestic situation soon settled down and gradually the country became more stable.


After that, the idiom 爱屋及乌 is used to mean that if you love someone, you'll love people and things related to him as well. In English, it is "love me, love my dog".
