feed a cold and starve a feverWhen one has a cold one ought to eat a great deal, but when one has a fever, as when one has the flu, one ought to eat as little as possible. — A proverb. 〖谚〗伤风时宜吃,发烧时宜饿。◆ "Why are you bringing me a six-course meal in bed, Grandma?" Jimmy asked all sniffling and coughing. "Well, you know what they say," Grandma answered. "Feed a cold and starve a fever!"“奶奶,为什么把6道菜的一顿饭给我送到病床上来呀?”吉米一边吸着鼻子咳嗽一边问道。“嗯,你知道人们说的话呀,”奶奶回答说。“伤风时宜吃,发烧时宜饿。” |
