常用的英语格言和成语

作者：bennyzhu

许多人在演讲、写作或谈话中，喜欢引用一些格言 (adage)、成语 (proverb) 或引语 (quotation) 等，使其内容更加活泼生动，有时还能收到「事半功倍」之效。我们也可以模仿。

值得一提的是：成语或格言，一般而言，都是照原文独立使用。不过有时也可用在新的句子里；有时也可用肯定句或否定句；有时动词时态也可稍加改变；这要看使用时的情况而定。但无论如何，必须保持原文的完整性。在此，先以第一句为例，希望能收「举一反三」之效。

(1) You can not teach an old dog new tricks ── 照字面意思是：你不能教老狗学新的把戏。也就是说：年老守旧的人，不易改变旧的作风，或接受新的事物和新思想。(Some people find it impossible to change their ways; or older people can not accept the changes or new ideas.） 虽然这句成语可以独立使用，但只要能维持原文的完整性，也可「动些手脚」。例如：

Stop trying to teach an old dog new tricks; you are just wasting time.（别想教老狗新花样，你只是白花时间。）

Are you trying to teach an old dog new tricks?

He is impossible. Don‘t try to teach an old dog new tricks.（impossible 是指顽固成性、墨守成规的人。）

I have tried teaching an old dog new tricks, but it doesn‘t work.（注：教狗不直接用 teach，要用 try to teach。）

(2) All that glitters is not gold. ── 字面的意思是：所有能闪闪发光的东西，未必都是黄金。换言之，就是许多外表漂亮的物品，未必都是真正的宝贝。因为也许是金玉其外，败絮其中，或是中看不中用。(not every beautiful thing is valuable. 也有人说成：All is not gold that glitters. (glitter 是动词，意思是闪闪发光或光彩夺目。) 也可用在句子里：

I told my students that all that glitters is not gold.

还有一句相似的成语：

Don‘t judge a book by its cover. (意思是：不能以书皮的美丑，去判断书的内容好坏。)

(3) Pepole (或 Those) who live in glass houses should not throw stones (或 rocks) ── 照字面的意思是：住在玻璃屋里的人不可丢石头。也就是说，世间没有十全十美的人，每个人都有缺点，所以不要批评别人。即所谓「自身有短，勿批他人」。(Nobody is perfect, so we should not criticize others.) 类似的，还有：

Don‘t judge a man until you have walked a mile in his shoes. (除非你充分了解人家的立场，不可轻易作出评估。)

(judge = criticize; have walked a mile in his shoes = have understood his situation well enough)

另一句是：

A freshly minted university graduate begins her new life with a challenge: riding a bicycle across mountains and prairies for 16 days to return to her hometown. Once there, she tells Tang Zhe, she found a guardian angel in her rear-view mirror.

Do you still remember how you bid farewell to your campus life? Many years later, Liao Jingwen will do so easily.

The 22-year-old graduate of Xi'an International Studies University spent 16 days cycling 1,200 km alone from Xi'an to her hometown Yichun, Jiangxi province. When she arrived home, she discovered that her father had been secretly following in a car so he could protect her if needed for the final 10 days.

Liao says she was just expecting to leave Xi'an, a city where she had lived for four years, in a slower way - and challenge herself at a memorable point of her life. In the end, it turned out to be a fulfilling journey for both daughter and father.

Liao was planning to join some friends to cycle from Xi'an in Shaanxi province to Xiamen in Fujian province. That didn't work out, but her interest was piqued. She decided to ride home alone but not tell her parents, who would definitely oppose the idea for safety reasons.

After reading a large number of riding tips on the Internet and prepare for the journey for a week, Liao set out with a bag of medicine, a set of professional cycling gear, a storage battery and two Superman T-shirts. She didn't expect it to be so grueling.

The fresh graduate, who hadn't cycled since middle school and only resumed it two weeks before departing, suffered the first blow on the very first day, when she was pedaling up a long slope in the starting city Xi'an.

"The temperature was more than 40 degrees, I felt dizzy, out of breath and even lost consciousness for a while," says Liao, who wrote on her account of the Chinese website Renren.com that she felt regret 17 times at the slope but pushed herself to go on.

Liao soon found the first day was nothing compared to the 400-km climb on roads of the Qinling Mountains. She clearly remembers when she finished a 9-km steep slope and an 18-km gentle slope against the wind - in tears. To make things worse, she was riding an oversized bicycle borrowed hurriedly from a man before she left, which caused her a lot of pain before she bought a woman's bike on the sixth day in Xiangyang, Hubei province.

The next day, the trip started to show its lovely face as Liao conquered the Qinling Mountains and reached the plains. Warmhearted orchard owners gave her fruits and invited her to eat at their homes. Almost everybody she met told her how to take care of herself on the road.

She met a cycling team in Yicheng, Hubei province. The uncles and aunties brought her meals, gave her herbal teas, and accompanied her to the outskirts of the city.

"I felt a strong sense of belonging when I suddenly met so many similar people in a strange place," Liao says. "After that, I received their text messages, with concerns about my safety, every night."

Liao says the strangers' caring gave her lots of motivation.

To make sure she could find a hotel in a city or town around 6 pm, Liao planned her daily route and destination every morning with the GPS software in her smart phone. Receiving their daughter's calls and locations every day, the parents hadn't been concerned until they learned she was all alone at the end of the sixth day, when she arrived at Xiangyang at midnight.

"We were so worried about her," says her father, Liao Qiujing, who drove more than 700 km the next day, hoping to bring his daughter back.

"I didn't tell her I was coming, but tried to convince her that she had already gone through the adversities and fulfilled her target. But she insisted there was no room for discussion and she would keep going," he says.

The daughter agreed to make more contact with her father, and he deliberately kept himself a certain distance behind and found a place to catch up again at the end of each day.

"The child wanted to taste hardships, so we should support her. In this way, we can also feel rest assured," the father says. "If I followed by her side, she could have missed lots of experiences." Many Chinese parents keep their children away from social experiences because of safety concerns. But Liao Qiujing, who is a teacher, says that parents should allow their children to experience more instead of protecting them completely.{out的谚语}.

"Sometimes the gains come in proportion to the risks, and we should allow them some space to create and explore."

The elder Liao admits his daughter surprised him with her perseverance - that she didn't give up midway.

The father and daughter urge any youngsters who want to imitate Liao's cycling to be rational and well-prepared before setting off.

"Some people told me they want to try the Sichuan-Tibet route, which is far more difficult. Some said they already bought a bike," says the
