“ The totality of beliefs and practices of a society.”( 某 一 社 会 信 仰 和 行 为 的 总 和 ) ――Nida(奈达, 1993: 105)

此诗就会不朽,使你永久生存下去。

“ sudden as April shower” “骤如四月阵 雨,突如其来” (p39)
William Shakespeare Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And often is his gold complexion dimmed; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed: But thy eternal summer shall not fade, Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest; Nor shall death brag thou wanderest in his shade When in eternal lines to time thou growest. So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
