中國(guó)成語(yǔ)典故中英對(duì)照:丑女效顰
Aping a Beauty
Xi Shi, a famous beauty, had a pain in her bosom, so she had a frown on her face when she went out. An ugly girl who lived nearby saw her and thought she looked very beautiful therefore when she went home, she also put her hands on her bosom and had a frown on her face.
When a rich man in the neighborhood saw her, he shut his doors tightly and did not go out. When a poor man saw her, he took his wife and children and gave her a wide berth.
She only knew Xi Shi's frown looked beautiful but she did not know the reason for its beauty.

附近的富人見(jiàn)了她,緊緊的關(guān)上門(mén),不愿出去。窮苦人見(jiàn)了她,帶著妻子兒女,遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)的避開(kāi)她。
丑女只知道西施皺眉的樣子很美麗,卻不知道西施皺眉顯得更美的道理。
