一、戒“从一而终”
一、戒“从一而终”
汉语言简意赅，句子灵活，往往是一个汉语词汇对应N个英语词汇，具体到在本句中应该采用那个意项，务必抓住精神实质，不可以不变应万变。至于怎么应变，这就是显示译者功力的地方了。
比如：都是“问题”，下面的翻译各不相同，几乎是打一枪换一个地方。
共同关心的问题 questions of common interest
解决问题 solve a problem
问题的关键 the heart of the matter
关键问题 a key problem
原则问题 a question/ matter of principle
悬而未决的问题 an outstanding issue
没有什么问题 Without any mishap
摩托车有点问题。 Something is wrong with the motorcycle。
问题不在这里。 That is not the point。

If you listen in to a group of
single women talking, you might realize that they mostly talk about
the men in they meet. What's more, you might realize that they can
speak volumes about the things that men do that annoy the heck out
of them. These discussions often turn into full no-holds-barred
rant sessions that make you feel glad you don't know these
women。
要是你听到一群女人聊天，你可能会发觉她们谈论的大多是所遇到的男人们。此外，或许你还会发现她们能头头是道地说出她们最烦男人的各种事情。这些谈论经常变成完全无拘无束的山聊海侃，以至于你暗自庆幸多亏自己不认识这些娘儿们。
But these discussions prove that there are a ton of things about
single men that women hate with a passion. Here's some of them.
Take a look and see if you're doing something wrong!
但这些谈论证明了一点：单身男人有许多地方太不招女人们待见了。这里列举了一些，请瞄上两眼，看看你是不是有哪些地方做得不对！
1. Sacrificing you
一个六十一岁的花甲老人，娶了一个二十七岁的美艳少妇，这样的事件即便是放到现在，依旧是一枚八卦炸弹；如果这两个人碰巧又都是名人，这枚炸弹必然堪称“重磅”；如果这两个人不仅是名人，而且一个是国家元首，一个是选秀头牌，这枚重磅八卦炸弹的威力就可以与原子弹比肩了；如果这个选秀头牌不仅仅是选秀头牌，更原本是国家元首的儿媳……你觉得互联网上会怎么说？
幸好，一千多年前的唐代没有互联网。白居易一篇《长恨歌》，道尽此中真味，但是那也有一个前提，这就是尽一切可能，只谈爱情，不提悖乱。于是，一个老男人与一个美少妇的香艳故事流传千年。
老实说，这件事最大的妙处，就是给天底下成千上万的“高龄剩男”保留了一丝希望，让更多的老男人对开放、包容的唐朝心向往之。高喊着“抢钱抢粮枪女人”的口号，登上开往唐朝的列车，如此雄姿勃发的壮丽图景
中餐馆菜单上吓人的错误，让来自世界各地的外国人觉得好笑。谁会忘记吃过“火烤狮子的头”（burnt lion's
head，即红烧狮子头）这道菜？在网上快速搜索一下，可以看到有关“麻辣Huang炸腹部丝绸”（benumbed hot Huang
fries belly silk，实为“麻辣韭黄炒肚丝”）和“香味使牛仔的骨头爆炸”（fragrance explodes the
cowboy bone）等佳肴的报道。我个人最爱吃的是“铁板烧”，它被直译成iron flooring
cremation（正确的译法应该是baked on an iron griddle）。
部分菜名的规范译法
麻婆豆腐
Mapo Tofu （stir-fried tofu in hot sauce）
旧译：Pock-marked old woman's beancurd；满脸麻子的老太婆的豆腐
拌双耳
Tossed black and white fungus
旧译：Two ears tossed together；两只耳朵搅拌在一起
丈妻肺片
Beef and Ox Tripe in Chili Sauce
旧译：“Man-and-wife”lung slices；丈夫和妻子的肺切片
醉鸡
Woman who haven't fallen in love before
graduation
大学毕业前还没谈过恋爱的女人
Here 'love' refers to interaction more than three months rather
than a very short period of the lightning romance. Also it doesn't
mean a single party Love. Because there is no love experience, the
skills with the opposite sex are lacked. On the other hand, the
degree of understanding of the opposite sex is also very low.
这里所说的“恋爱”是指男女双方超过三个月以上的交往，而非极短时间内开始并结束的闪电恋情，当然也不是指单相思。因为没有恋爱经验，故而缺乏跟异性交往的技巧。同时，这类女人对异性的了解度也相当低。
Perfectionism woman
完美主义的女人
Everything, including love, life are inperfect art. Women who
pursue a perfect life are often very unhappy, because they intend
to see an imperfect place.
生活里的每样事物，包括爱情在内，其实都是残缺的艺术。追求完美的女人往往生活得很不快乐，因为她们总能够看到不完
