I. Translation

1, there is a fruit seller in Hangzhou, who is good at storing oranges and won't rot after experiencing the cold winter and heat. After taking it out, it is radiant, crystal clear as jade, and golden in color. On the market, the price is ten times higher, and people are scrambling to buy it. I bought one, and when I cut it open, it smelled of smoke. Looking at its interior, it is as dry as a piece of cotton.

2. I was surprised and asked him, "Are these oranges you sold to people for bamboo baskets, sacrifices and hospitality?" Or show off its appearance to confuse stupid and ignorant people? Your behavior is really shameful! " The citrus seller smiled and said, I have been engaged in this industry for many years and make a living by it.

There are many people who cheat in the world. Am I the only one? You haven't thought clearly about this problem. Now those who wear tiger charms and sit on tiger skins seem to be the equipment to protect the country and defend the country. Can they really teach the strategies of Sun Tzu and Wu Qi?

Those people with high hats and long belts look like great artifacts in the imperial court. Can they really build on the achievements of Yi Yin and Hao Tao? Thieves are everywhere, but they don't know how to defend themselves. People are in trouble, but they don't know how to help. Officials are treacherous, but they don't know how to ban them. Public security is corrupt, but they don't know how to govern. They are not ashamed to sit on empty seats.

Look at those people sitting in the high hall, riding high horses and drinking wine and delicacies. Which one is not awesome, not excellent and not worth imitating? However, no matter where you go, who is not outside the appearance, the heart is broken!

6. Now you can't see this clearly, but you only see my citrus. I was silent and couldn't answer him. When I think back on his words, I think he is as humorous as Dong Fangshuo. Is he angry and jealous of the evil phenomena in the world? Or satirize the world through oranges?

Second, the original text

1, there are fruit sellers in Hangzhou, who are good at hiding oranges and don't collapse in cold and summer. Put it on the market and sell it for ten times the price. Jia in the city is ten times better, and people compete for it. I bought one of them, cut it open, and smoked my nose and mouth like a cigarette. Look at it, it's as dry as a broken cotton wool. He asked me strangely: if the market was in the hands of others, would he sacrifice real beans to his guests?

2. Will it be dazzling and confusing? What a long time! The seller smiled and said, I have a long career and rely on it to support my body. The world is full of bullies, but I am alone. My son hasn't decided yet. Today, the husband wears a tiger symbol and sits in a high position, which is almost the same as Gancheng. Can you give some to Sun and Wu? I am a big crown, a long gentry, and proud of the temple. Can I do business with Gao in Iraq?

3. Stealing without knowing how to defend, people trapped without knowing how to save, traitors without knowing how to ban, ignorant of law and discipline, and shameless. Who is drunk, fat and fresh, and who is not awesome and magnificent when watching him riding on a high platform? Why not go beyond Jin Yu? What a pity!

4. This child is not here to check, but to check my oranges! I'm speechless. Looking back on this orange, he felt like a Dong Fangshuo, as witty as Dong Fangshuo. Does it hate evil people? So, is it ironic to use citrus as an excuse?
