50-------- SinOne man's meat is another man's poison
ce the same thing may affect different people in different ways, each person must
choose the things that will work in his or her particular case.
One man's meat is another man's poison. 字面上的意思就是"你爱吃的肉可能就是另一个人的毒药"。 其实就相当于咱们平时说的"萝卜青菜,各有所爱";你所钟情的流行音乐,可能就被隔壁邻居视为糟蹋耳朵的噪音。这时你除了感叹One man's meat is another man's poison.还能说些什么呢?现在生活好了,肉也不再是什么稀罕的东西,人们吃肉也是要"挑lean meat (瘦肉),拣fat meat(肥肉)"。肉煮得时间短就会比较tender(嫩),煮得时间长,就会比较tough(老)。salted meat(咸肉)可以放很长时间,fresh meat(鲜肉)还是早吃为好。在湖南和四川,人们喜欢吃smoked meat (bacon)熏肉。而strong meat则是指"难以消化的食品",同时也代表着"难理解的事物"了。
