Atalanta’s better part:Atalanta’s better quality.i.c.her fleetness of foot. but not her greed(Atalanta wasa Greek girl.distinguished for her swiftness in run-ning.To avoid marriage,she asked her suitors to runa race with her.Milanion presented himself withthree golden apples. During the race,he threw downthe apples,and Atalanta. stopping to gather them.lost the race.)阿塔蘭塔的優(yōu)點(diǎn)指她的快腿，她的缺點(diǎn)則是貪心。(按：據(jù)希臘神話，阿塔蘭塔是著名的快腿姑娘。她不愿結(jié)婚，提出凡向她求婚者，必須跟她賽跑。彌拉尼翁揣著三只金蘋果向她求婚，賽跑時(shí)扔下一只只金蘋果，阿塔蘭塔只顧去拾，自然跑輸了。)
△As.3.2.156(147).As.3.2.294(277):“Youhave a nimble wit;I think ’twas made of Atalanta’sheels.”您的機(jī)智很敏捷，我想大概是用阿塔蘭塔的腳跟做成的。 |
