Dear Agony Aunt，
亲爱的知心阿姨，
I'm in a total mess here-hope you can help me out!
我这里一团糟——希望你能帮我解决！
I'm 17,and a member of our school basketball team.I'm crazy about basketball and pretty good at it too, which is probably why I was so mad when we lost our last match.We played well,but I felt the team were let down by one member,our point guard.The point guard is a key player,but it was like he wasn't even on the court! Disappointed by his behaviour,I said all this to my best friend.I was just letting off steam really,because I was so angry,but then my friend went and told everyone else what I'd said.
我17岁，是我们学校篮球队的一员。我对篮球非常狂热，而且打得也不错，这可能就是为什么我们上次比赛输了之后我那么生气。我们打得很好，但我感觉整个队伍被我们的控球后卫拖累了。控球后卫是一个关键球员，但他就像根本不在球场上一样！对他表现感到失望，我把这些都告诉了我的好朋友。我其实只是在发泄一下，因为我真的很生气，但我的朋友却跑去告诉了其他人我所说的话。
This is so totally awkward.I'm really angry with my friend-what should I say to him And should I say anything at all to my teammate
这实在是太尴尬了。我对我的朋友真的很生气——我应该对他说什么？我是否应该对我的队友说些什么？
Embarrassed and ashamed,I can't concentrate on anything.Please help!
尴尬和羞愧，我无法集中注意力在任何事情上。请帮帮我！

Absolute agony!
绝对的痛苦！
Our Agony Aunt answers your questions，
我们的知心阿姨回答你的问题，
Dear Ben,
亲爱的本，
There is an old American saying,"Loose lips sink ships."This means that if you speak too much about something,especially to people who you don't know so well, it'll cause all kinds of trouble.
有一句古老的美国谚语，“松动的嘴唇会沉船。” 这意味着如果你对某件事情说得太多，特别是对那些你不那么熟悉的人，它将引起各种各样的麻烦。
The situation here is so much worse because the "loose lips"were your best friend's.Treated this way,you're sure to feel hurt-we should always be able to trust those closest to us,and it hurts even more when we find we can't.
这里的情况之所以如此糟糕，是因为“多嘴”是你最好的朋友。以这种方式对待，你肯定会感到受伤——我们应该总是能够信任我们最亲近的人，当我们发现我们不能信任他们时，这会更加痛苦。
But I have to say that it's partly your fault,isn't it You admit that you were “letting off steam".It is understandable in that situation,but we should always think before we speak.
但我不得不说，这在一定程度上是你的错，不是吗？你承认你是在“发泄情绪”。在那种情况下是可以理解的，但我们应该在说话前总是先思考。
Here's what you need to do.First, apologise to your teammate.If you ever want to win any more basketball games(and I'm sure you do!),you need to work together; and that means communicating with each other clearly and resolving conflicts. So have a chat with your teammate.Tell him directly and honestly that you were talking without thinking.
首先，你需要向你的队友道歉。如果你还想赢得更多的篮球比赛（我确信你有这个愿望！），你们需要团结合作；这意味着要清晰地相互沟通并解决冲突。所以，和你的队友好好谈谈。直接而诚实地告诉他，你在说话时没有经过思考。
Then,talk to your friend. Friendship should be one of the greatest things in the world,but sometimes it can be difficult.Again,your strategy is clear communication. Tell your friend you're angry with him for repeating what you said and making the situation worse,but that you want to move on. Approached in this way,your friendship will soon be repaired.
那么，和你的朋友谈谈。友谊应该是世界上最伟大的事情之一，但有时它可能会很困难。再次强调，你的策略是清晰的沟通。告诉你的朋友你因为他重复你的话并使情况变得更糟而感到生气，但你希望继续前进。以这种方式处理，你的友谊很快就会修复。
Thirdly,and perhaps most importantly,think about your own behaviour.Don't say too much when you're angry!Filled with anger,you tend to say whatever comes to your mind.This gives people the wrong signal. Take a deep breath, calm down, and always remember: think first, speak later.If you feel one of your teammates isn't pulling their weight,then raise your concerns in a professional way with your team coach.
第三，也许最重要的是，考虑你自己的行为。当你生气时不要说太多！充满愤怒时，你倾向于说出任何出现在你脑海中的事情。这会给人们错误的信号。深呼吸，冷静下来，永远记住：先思考，后说话。如果你觉得你的某个队友没有尽力，那么以专业的方式向你的团队教练提出你的担忧。
If you think about other people's feelings as well as your own,you'll soon find everything works out.
Good luck!
Agony Aunt
如果你考虑到别人的感受以及你自己的感受，你很快就会发现一切都会顺利。
祝你好运！
知心阿姨

Little White Lies
小小的善意谎言
Written more than two hundred years ago, these lines by Walter Scott remain one of the most well-known excerpts of Scottish poetry:
写于两百多年前，这些由沃尔特·司各特所作的诗句依然是苏格兰诗歌中最广为人知的摘录之一： Oh, what a tangled web we weave,
When first we practise to deceive!
哦，当我们初次尝试欺骗时，编织了一个多么复杂的网啊。
We all know that honesty is an important value and that lying is wrong, but who can honestly say that they've never told a lie Perhaps we comfort ourselves with the knowledge that most of the lies we tell are "white lies":little lies that we tell to protect others from the truth.
我们都知道诚实是一种重要的价值观，撒谎是错误的，但是谁能诚实地宣称他们从未撒过谎呢？或许我们用这样的认识来安慰自己：我们所撒的大多数谎言都是“善意的谎言”：为了保护他人免受真相的伤害而说的小谎。
We've all surely had the experience of someone cooking a meal for us that we don't like.The majority of us of course don't tell the truth -we lie and say that the food is"delicious".
我们都肯定有过这样的经历：有人为我们烹饪了一顿我们不喜欢的饭菜。当然，我们中的大多数人都不会说出真相——我们撒谎说食物是“美味的”。
Or if a friend asks us what we think of their new haircut, we say "It's great!",even if we think it's awful.But to what extent can we justify telling white lies like these
或者如果朋友问我们对他们新发型的看法，我们说“太棒了！”，即使我们认为它很糟糕。但我们能在多大程度上为说这样的善意谎言辩解呢？
One of the main reasons for telling a white lie is to try to make others feel better.However,when we lie and say that someone's haircut looks good,or when we say that we love a meal that we secretly hate,are we really hoping to improve the situation for someone else Perhaps we are in fact lying to protect ourselves from the disappointment and anger of others.
告诉一个善意的谎言的主要原因之一是为了试图让别人感觉更好。然而，当我们撒谎说某人的发型看起来不错，或者当我们说我们喜欢我们私下里讨厌的一餐时，我们真的是希望改善别人的情况吗？也许我们实际上是在撒谎以保护自己免受他人的失望和愤怒。
Another reason for telling a white lie is to give encouragement. Say for example that your friend asks you what you think of his singing.You of course say that it's wonderful,despite secretly thinking that your cat can sing better. Stop for a moment and consider that perhaps your friend wants some frank comments from you so that they can improve.Or perhaps,they need to know that they should look for a different hobby.
告诉一个善意的谎言的另一个原因是为了给予鼓励。举个例子，你的朋友问你对他的歌唱有何看法。当然，你会说很好，尽管你心里认为你的猫唱得更好。停下来想一想，也许你的朋友希望从你这里得到一些坦率的评论，以便他们能够改进。或者也许，他们需要知道他们应该寻找一个不同的爱好。
Finally,we may also tell a white lie when we want to protect others from bad news.If you've had a bad day,do you tell your parents about it,or do you hide your tears and lie that your day was "fine" If the latter, don't you think your parents would want to listen to you and understand your feelings Wouldn't it be better to respect their concern for you and ask for their advice
最后，当我们想要保护他人免受坏消息的影响时，我们有时也会说善意的谎言。如果你度过了糟糕的一天，你会告诉你的父母吗，还是隐藏你的泪水，撒谎说你的一天“很好”？如果是后者，你不认为你的父母会想要倾听你，理解你的感受吗？尊重他们对你的关心，向他们寻求建议不是更好吗？
Going back to Walter Scot's lines,we may find even white lies have results we cannot know in advance. Perhaps the meal you said was "delicious"will be served every time you visit.Would your friend trust your opinion again if he found out you had lied about his "wonderful"singing How would you expect others to truly understand your emotions if you only shared good news instead of bad Moreover, how would you feel if you discovered that the people closest to you had been hiding the truth from you
回到沃尔特·斯科特的诗句，我们可能会发现即使是善意的谎言也会产生我们无法提前知道的结果。也许你所说的那顿饭是“美味的”，以后每次你去都会被端上这道菜。如果你的朋友发现你对他的“美妙”歌声撒了谎，他还会再次信任你的意见吗？如果你只分享好消息而不分享坏消息，你又怎么能期待别人真正理解你的情感呢？此外，如果你发现你最亲近的人一直在对你隐瞒真相，你会有什么感觉呢？
