扫地

Whether it's sweeping or mopping, Zhuang Qingfeng always wears a smile on his face because he enjoys doing these tasks. This moderately retarded teen dismisses the pain of a cut, quickly dresses it, and returns to his work. The 17-year-old has never missed a day in three years of high school. The first thing he does before classes begin is clean the drinking fountain, so that everyone can enjoy sparkling water.

不管是扫地还是拖地，庄庆丰总是满脸笑容，因为他喜欢做事，患有中度智能障碍的他，手割破了也不喊痛，简单包扎后继续回去工作。17岁的庆丰，高中三年从没请过假，每天到学校的第一件事就是清洗饮水机，只为了让大家都能喝到乾净的好水。

And now, in the village of Halala, in the foothills of Mount Taurus, he lost his wife Faustina, who succumbed to a sudden illness.166 He asked the senate of decree her divine honours and a temple, and likewise delivered a eulogy of her, although she had suffered grievously from the reputation of lewdness.167 Of this, however, Antoninus was either ignorant or affected ignorance.

然而现在，在哈拉拉村庄，陶路斯山脚下，他失去了妻子福斯蒂娜，她死于急病（166）。他要求元老院授予她神的荣耀和寺庙，还有同样地给予她一个赞词，虽然她由于私情已经名声扫地（167）。因此，安东尼要么是不知道，要么就是装作不知道。

You knew what my Art was to me, the great primal note by which I had revealed, first myself to myself, and then myself to the world; the real passion of my life; the love to which all other loves were as marsh water to red wine, or the glow-worm of the marsh to the magic mirror of the moon.

在我的一个戏剧的首演之夜，他弄假骗到一个座位，阴谋打断演出，当着观众的面恶语中伤我，污辱我的演员，要在谢幕前人们唤我到台前时无礼下流地用东西扔我，完全是要居心叵测地借我的作品使我名声扫地。

At that time I was a volunteer at the jail, so it wasn't long before I encountered the child at the guardhouse there. Still shirtless and barefooted, he was sweeping the floor.

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.

索夫农 、森那库斯和苏格拉底式的对话采用的模仿没有一个公共的名称；三音步诗、挽歌体或其他类型的诗的模仿也没有——人们把&诗人&这一名词和格律名称结合到一起，称之为挽歌体诗人或者史诗诗人，他们被称为诗人，似乎只是因为遵守格律写作，而非他们作品的模仿本质。
