成語雙語故事：天衣無縫

　　Without loophole

　　天衣無縫

　　Long ago, there lived a man named Guo Han.

　　從前， 有一個叫郭翰的人。

　　It was a hot summer. He couldn‘t fall asleep in his bedroom, so he went into the yard to sleep.

　　因為夏天天熱，在屋子里無法入睡， 就到院子里去睡覺。

　　Not long after he lay down he saw a woman dressed in white floating down from the sky.

　　躺下不久，正看著天空， 忽然看見一個白衣女子從空中慢慢飄流下來。

　　She said to him： “I am the celestial weaver.”

　　她對郭翰說：“我是天上的織女。”

　　Looking at her Guo Han noticed that there were no seams in her garments.

　　郭翰看著這個女子，發(fā)現(xiàn)他的衣服全身無縫。

　　He thought this was very strange.

　　他覺得很奇怪。

　　He asked her： “Why are there no seams in your clothes?”

　　他就問她：“你的衣服怎么沒有縫呢?”

　　She answered： “The garments of the immortals are not made with a needle and thread. How would they have seams?”

　　女子回答：“天上神仙的衣服，不是用針線縫出來的， 怎么會有縫呢?”

　　“天衣無縫”的意思現(xiàn)在大多引申為“事物周密完善，找不出什么毛病”，也就是“沒有漏洞的”意思，在英語中相對應的準確表達可以用“without loophole”，“loophole”就是“漏洞，法律空子”的意思，所以“without loophole”也就是“沒有漏洞的”，“天衣無縫”的意思啦。
