中国成语寓言故事28:Giving Up Eating for Fear of Choking因噎废食(双语)

阅读 :

   In the past, there was a man who had a large appetite. When he ate, he devoured ravenously.

   从前,有个人饭量很大,吃起饭来,狼吞虎咽。

    Once he wasn't careful enough so that a fishbone got stuck in his throat. The food was blocked in his esophagus, and he could neither swallow nor vomit. So he called a physician, but the physician could do nothing. The people around looked at him in anxiety. Finally, as he couldn't breathe, he died of choking.

    一次,他不留神,骨头硬在喉咙里,食物被堵塞在食道里,想咽咽不下,想吐吐不出。于是,他请来医生,医生也没有办法。周围的人看着他,干着急。最后,他因透不过气来而活活噎死了。

    Afterwards, someone went so far as to issue a ban: Eating is forbidden as from today for the reason that no one will be choked to death if people give up eating.
 

    事后,有人居然下了一道禁令:从今天起,天下禁止吃饭。理由是:不吃饭,就不会噎死人。
