中国经典成语故事:专治驼背

In the past, a man claimed to be "a specialist in curing hunchbacks". His signboard read:

从前,有个人自称“专治驼背”,他的招牌上写着:

"I specialize in curing hunchbacks. No matter whether you are hunchbacked like a bow, a shrimp, a basket for rinsing rice or a rice pot, I guarantee that once I start treatment, your hunchback will be cured."

“本人专治驼背,无论你驼得像弓,像虾,像淘箩,像饭锅,凡是经我医治,保证手到病除。”

One hunchback saw the signboard, believed it to be true, and asked for treatment.

有一个驼背,看到招牌,果然信以为真,就请他医治。

The doctor neither gave any prescription, nor let the patient take any medicine. All the medical instrument he had was two boards for pressing. One board was put on the ground, on which the hunchback was told to lie on his stomach. Another board was pressed on and tied tightly with the hunchback. Then the doctor jumped onto the board and trampled upon it at random with all his might. As a result, the hunchback was straightened, but, alas, he was "dead and gone" also.

他既不开药方,也不让吃药。他所有的医疗器具,就只是两块夹板。他把一块板放在地上,叫驼背趴在上面,用另一块压在驼背的身上,然后用绳索绷紧。接着,他便自己跳到板上,拼命用脚乱踩一番。结果,那个人的驼背算是给压直了,可是他的性命也就“呜呼哀哉”了。

When the hunchback's son learned of this, of course he had it out with the doctor. But the doctor said:

驼背的儿子知道了,自然要与那个医生评理,那医生却说:

"My job is to straighten his back. It's none of my business whether he is dead or alive."

“我只管把他的驼背弄直,哪能管他的死活!”

He said to his family:

他对家里的人说:

"Be quick! Chisel a hole in the wall!"

“快,你们快把墙壁凿个洞。”

After the hole was made, he hurriedly stretched his foot into his neighbour's house.

墙洞凿成后,他连忙把生着疮的脚,伸进隔壁邻居家里。

His family members asked him:

家里的人问他:

"What is this for`?"

“这是什么意思?”

He replied:

他回答说:

"Let the pain go to my neighbour. In this way, no matter how painful it is, it doesn't concern me any more!"

“让它痛到邻居家里去吧!这样,再痛跟我也不相干!”

In order to avoid calamities, at first the kingfisher always selects a high place to build its nest.

翠鸟起先为了避免灾祸,总是选择高的地方筑巢。

But when the young birds are hatched, it will move to a place a little lower to build its nest. This is because the kingfisher is particularly fond of its offspring and is afraid they而ght fall down from a high place.

但是,等到孵出小鸟以后,它就到少许低一点儿的地方筑巢。这是因为它特别爱护小鸟,生怕它们从高处摔下来。

When the young birds grow beautiful feathers, the kingfisher will become even fonder of them and more protective, so it will move its nest further downward, with the result that the young birds are easily taken away by people.

等到小鸟长出了美丽的羽毛以后,母鸟就更加喜欢和爱护它们了,于是又向下搬巢,结果小翠鸟却被人们轻而易举地掏走了。
