大多數的作家都討厭被批評。

Most writers hate being criticized.

如果有朋友對你作出善意批評，你不止應該欣然接受，還要好好的感謝他。

If your friend reminds you kindly of your faults, take what he says not only pleasantly, but thankfully.

評論員對巫巫茲拉的聲音作出了各種各樣的描述：除了「煩人」、「像魔鬼一般」之外，還把它比作「一群嘈吵的大象」、「一群嗡嗡狂叫的蝗蟲」、「一隻準備給屠宰的山羊」、「一個裝滿發狂的蜜蜂的巨大蜂巢」、「一隻吃了搖頭丸的鴨子」等等。

Commentators have variously described the sound of vuvuzelas as "annoying" and "satanic" and compared it with "a stampede of noisy elephants", "a deafening swarm of locusts", "a goat on the way to slaughter", "a giant hive full of very angry bees", and "a duck on speed".

小說家說謊並不是不道德的事。其實，謊話說得愈離譜、愈有技巧，就愈會受到公眾和批評家的表揚。

It's not immoral for a novelist to tell lies. In fact, the bigger the lies, the better lies, and the more the common folks and critics will praise you.

這家酒店在旅行指南上有四星級的評分，但是卻完全沒有四星級的水準。

This hotel is far from deserving the four stars the guidebook gives it.
