4. Achilles / Hercules / Spiderman / Batman → Achilles 阿喀琉斯 Achilles,也常译作阿基里斯、阿喀琉斯等,是古希腊神话和文学中的英雄人物,参与了特洛伊战争,被称为“希腊第一勇士”。 是凡人英雄珀琉斯和海洋女神忒提斯的爱子。忒提斯为了让儿子炼成“金钟罩”,在他刚出生时就将其倒提着浸进冥河。遗憾的是,阿喀琉斯被母亲捏住的脚后跟却不慎露在水外,在全身留下了唯一一处“死穴”。后来,阿喀琉斯被帕里斯一箭射中脚踝而死去。后人常以“Achilles’ heel 阿喀琉斯之踵”譬喻这样一个道理:即使是再强大的英雄,也有致命的死穴或软肋。 词链儿:Achilles’ heel /əˌkɪliːz ˈhiːl/ 致命要害;薄弱环节 I think Frank’s vanity is his Achilles’ heel. 我认为,虚荣心是弗兰克的致命弱点。 链接跳转回顾【“软柿子”英语怎么说?】 https://mp.weixin.sigusoft.com/s?__biz=MzI4OTAyODUxNA==&mid=&idx=2&sn=17df9ba539f5db6d8ad266fb4077fa36&scene=21#wechat_redirect
→ Hercules 赫拉克勒斯 (古希腊神话中的大力神) 赫拉克勒斯(Hercules,又译海格力斯),是古希腊神话中最伟大的英雄。神王宙斯与阿尔克墨涅之子,天生力大无穷。但由于其出身而被宙斯的妻子赫拉所憎恶,因此遭到赫拉的诅咒,导致其在疯狂中杀害了自己的孩子。为了赎罪,他完成了12项“不可能完成”的任务。途中还解救了被缚的普罗米修斯,隐藏身份参加了伊阿宋的英雄探险队,并协助伊阿宋取得金羊毛。 赫拉克勒斯英明一世,但却遭到妻子误会,在他的衣服上涂了毒,导致其痛苦难耐自焚而亡。死后升入奥林匹斯山,被宙斯封为大力神,参与了奥林匹斯诸神与癸干忒斯的战争,并取得胜利。最终和赫拉冰释前嫌,为了表示对他的认可,赫拉将自己的女儿青春女神赫柏许配给赫拉克勒斯为妻。 在今天的西方世界,赫拉克勒斯一词已经成为了大力士和壮汉的同义词。
