emperor /ˈempərə(r)/
●the ˌemperor’s new ˈclothes●the ˌemperor has no ˈclothesused to describe a situation in which everybody suddenly realises that they were mistaken in believing that sb/sth was very good, important, etc. 皇帝的新装（指众人突然意识到某人或某物并非非常出色）◆Soon, investors will realize that the emperor has no clothes and there will be a big sell-off in stocks.
很快，投资者们就会意识到皇帝没有任何新装，随即会有大量股票被抛售。 ORIGIN This comes from a story by Hans Christian Andersen. Two men offer to make an emperor a new suit from a very light material which they say stupid people cannot see. When the emperor puts on the suit, nobody wants to appear stupid so they all praise his new clothes. However, when a little boy asks why the emperor has no clothes on, everybody admits that they can see no clothes and that the emperor is naked. 这个习语源于安徒生童话。有两个人要为皇帝做一套新装，材质轻薄，愚蠢的人是看不见的。当皇帝穿上新装后，人们为了显示自己不蠢都对皇帝的新装赞不绝口。然而，当有个小男孩问为什么皇帝没穿衣服时，大家这才承认他们也没看到什么新装，皇帝其实是赤身裸体的。 |
