He told me a news that he was getting married, and the new life was great. It was made me crazy. Because I had loved him for 3 years since I met him here at the first time. I didn\'t tell him about it. But why didn\'t he know that from my careness aout him.

he eat no fish的英语典故是怎样一个故事
英国女王伊丽莎白一世统治期间,规定了英国国教的教义与仪式。对此,一部分教徒表示支持,另一部分则坚决反对。那些支持政府决定的教徒为了表示对英国政府的忠诚,不再遵守罗马天主教规定的每星期五都要吃鱼的规定。这些"不吃鱼"的教徒便被认为是"好人",而"eat no fish"一语便被用来喻指"忠于政府的人,诚实的人"了。
如:Frank is a man eating no fish, so we can believe in and depend on him.
弗兰克是个诚实的人,我们可以信任并依赖他
原文:John can be relied on. He eats no fish and plays games.
译文:约翰是可靠的。他不吃鱼,还玩游戏。
原文看似缺乏连贯性,前言不搭后语。但如果具有一定的历史文化知识,了解新教徒在斋戒日不吃鱼,以示忠诚和信仰,就会知道“to eat no fish”的意思是“to be loyal and faithful”。另外,在游戏中总是有许多规则要遵守,所以“to play games”意味着“to follow principles”。在这样的文化语境中语篇获得了连贯的语义,因而原文可译为:约翰是可靠的。他既忠诚,又守规矩。

THE LION AND THE MOUSE
Lion was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Rising up in anger, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mouse piteously
entreated, saying: “If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness.” The Lion laughed and let him go.
It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing his roar,
came up, and gnawed the rope with his teeth, and setting him free, exclaimed: “You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, not expecting to
receive from me any repayment of your favour; but now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits on a Lion.”
1.狮和鼠
一只老鼠从一只狮子面前跑过去,将它从梦中吵醒。
狮子生气地跳起来,捉住老鼠,要弄死它。老鼠哀求说:「只要你肯饶恕我这条小生命,我将来一定会报答你的大恩。」狮子便笑着放了它。
后来狮子被几个猎人捉住,用粗绳捆绑倒在地上。老鼠听出是狮子的吼声,走来用牙齿咬断绳索,释放了它,并大声说:「你当时嘲笑我想帮你的忙,而且也不指望我有什么机会
报答。但是你现在知道了,就算是小老鼠,也能向狮子效劳的。」

Thank God Is Friday(TGIF)是什么意思?
1. 规范的说法应该是Thank God it's Friday,首字母缩写就是TGIF。
2. 这并不是什么典故,而是一种很常见的口头表达,意思是“终于星期五了。”Thank God是指“感谢上帝”的意思,It's Friday是指“星期五了”。
3. 经常用于忙碌了一周,到了星期五,马上就周末了发出来的感叹。
但是 对信仰伊斯兰 教 的人 来说 其含义 就是双关的
因为星期五 是聚礼日(主麻) 这一天的礼拜 是非常重要的
