“wearing a famous-brand suit and a cold look”选自本刊上一期倪家耀教授的汉译英讲座,原文如下:At the age of thirty,I,wearing a famous—brand suit and a cold look, reproach my subordinate bluntly, “How can you go so far as to raise such a silly,mindless question?”(三十岁的我穿着名牌套装,坐在办公桌前,满脸冷酷地对下属说:“这么愚蠢的问题也敢问?也不先打个草稿。”)

“wearing a famous-brand suit and a cold look” is selected from the last issue of the Chinese translation of Professor Ni Jiayao’s Chinese translation. The text reads as follows: At the age of thirty,I,wearing a famous brand suit and a cold look, reproach My subordinate bluntly, ”How can you go so far as to raise such a silly,mindless question?“ (I was 30 years old wearing a brand-name suit, sitting at my desk and grimly speaking to my subordinates, ”I’m so stupid.“ I also dare to ask questions, nor do I have to make a draft first.”)
