描写的人

They do not like women to be presented as emotionally passive —as a matter of fact I think most women are, that their minds are taken up with a sort of second rate and unessential book keeping which their apologists call "practicality"—like the French, they are centime savers in the business of magic.

她们不希望女性被描写为感情被动的人，事实上，我认为绝大多数女性就是这样，她们的脑子里充满的是一些二流的、无关紧要的，她们的辩护者称之为"实用性"的簿记。在充满诱惑的商业世界里，她们如同法国人一样是"生丁节省者"。

Man in his natural and unaffected dullness was the object of fictional representation.

人自然流露出的呆板和迟钝是描写的对象

满洲人》是一部历史小说，描写的是发生在明朝末年的故事。

For scarcely any nation has suffered since 1939 as Poland, carved up by the Hitler-Stalin nonaggression pact, transformed by the Nazis into the epicenter of their program to annihilate European Jewry, land of Auschwitz and Majdanek, killing field for millions of Christian Poles and millions of Polish Jews, brave home to the Warsaw Uprising, Soviet pawn, lonely Solidarity-led leader of post-Yalta Europe's fight for freedom, a place where, as one of its great poets, Wislawa Szymborska, wrote,"History counts its skeletons in round numbers"— 20,000 of them at Katyn.

1939年以降，几乎没有哪个国家遭受的灾难比波兰更为深重。这个国家一度被希特勒和斯大林签订的不侵犯条约瓜分，被纳粹转化为欧洲犹太人的根除中心。这是奥斯威辛和马伊达内克集中营的所在地，是数百万信基督教的波兰人和数百万波兰犹太人遇难的杀戮场，是英勇的华沙起义爆发的地方，是任由苏联人摆布的卒子。这是欧洲其他国家在后雅尔塔时代争取自由之际依然被形只影单的统一工人党统治的国度。正如伟大的波兰诗人维斯瓦娃·希姆博尔斯卡所描写的那样，这是一个"历史用整数计算骷髅数量"（卡廷的这项数字为20000）的地方。

To a hungry man, the mere description of food is valueless; he wants to eat.

Most of the people you profiled are really entrepreneurs, a title to wear proudly.

你描写的人物大多数是实业家，这是个颇让人感到自豪的头衔。

But I will preserve the purity of my life and my art. I will not cut for stone, even for patients in whom the disease is manifest. I will leave this operation to be performed by practitioners.In every house where I come I will enter only for the good of my patients, keeping myself far from all intentional ill-doing and all seduction.

不是喜欢搬弄是非，背后不说人家好坏，更不屑做传声筒的，但是好朋友的恋爱过程次次都要被人家搬出来问，也只好发挥所有的语言天赋把故事的男女主角都描写的得体，故事还要美丽和摆得上台面，是善意的，实在没有兴趣搬弄是非，因为有时候人需要一些虚荣的快乐；人适当的自嘲是应该的。

The mantis anthropomorphic to describe as holding long-handled scythe people.

把螳螂拟人化地描写成拿着长柄大镰刀的人。

At that age, he was sold into slavery by a group of Irish marauders that raided his village.

很小的时候看过一部叫《灰色地带》的小说，说的是中国留学生在美国的故事，男女主角在散心时遇到了狂欢游行的爱尔兰人，尽管他们身处美国，但是狂欢依然不减色，我甚至还记得书中描写的游行队伍中所有人都佩着绿色的饰品，连夹杂在人群中的小狗脖子上也系了绿色的丝带。

It's like Of Mice and Men.

就像是《人鼠之间》描写的一样

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.
