A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
老鼠
Mouse
She’d survived the Drowned Cities because she wasn’t anything like Mouse. When the bullets started flying and warlords started making examples of peacekeeper collaborators, Mahlia had kept her head down, instead of standing up like Mouse. She’d looked out for herself, first. And because of that, she’d survived.
她在被淹没的城市里活了下来,因为她一点也不像老鼠。当子弹开始飞起,军阀们开始为维和部队的合作者们树立榜样时,马莉亚一直保持着低着头的姿态,而不是像老鼠一样站着。她首先要照顾好自己。正因为如此,她活了下来。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Young cats will mouse, young apes will louse.
小猫会耗子,猿猴会虱子。
I am impelled, not to squeak like a grateful and apologetic mouse, but to roar like a lion out of pride in my profession.
我被驱使着,不是像一只感恩和道歉的老鼠那样尖叫,而是像狮子一样咆哮,以我的职业为荣。
A mewing cat is never a good mouser.
喵喵叫的猫从来不是捕鼠高手。
If you are a mouse don't follow frogs.
如果你是一只老鼠,不要跟着青蛙。
The mouse that fears the trap has already been trapped.
害怕陷阱的老鼠已经被困住了。
