1.潘多拉的盒子 Pandora's Box
潘多拉是希臘神話中第一個塵世女子。普羅米修斯盜天火給人間後，主神宙斯為懲罰人類，命令神用黏土塑成一個年輕美貌、虛偽狡詐的姑娘，取名「潘多拉」，意為「具有一切天賦的女人」，並給了她一個禮盒，然後將她許配給普羅米修斯的弟弟埃庇米修斯。
埃庇米修斯不顧禁忌地接過禮盒，潘多拉趁機打開它，於是各種惡習、災難和疾病立即從裡面飛出來。盒子里只剩下唯一美好的東西：希望。但希望還沒來得及飛出來，潘多拉就將盒子永遠地關上了。「潘多拉的盒子」被用來比喻造成災害的根源。
Pandora was the first earthly woman in Greek mythology. After Prometheus had stolen fire from heaven, Zeus, the god of god, punished mankind by making a beautiful, hypocritical, and cunning girl from clay.
He named her Pandora, which means "woman of all gifts," and gave her a gift box. When epimetheus took the box in spite of taboos, Pandora opened it, and all sorts of vices, disasters, and diseases flew out of it.
There was only one good thing left in the box: hope. But before she could fly out, Pandora closed the box for good. "Pandora's box" is used to describe the source of the disaster.

盤古開天地
Pangu Separates Sky from Earth
China has a history longer than that of any other present-day nation, containing a plethora of myths and legends. Regarded as the "Chinese Adam" by Westerners, the first figure in China's history was named Pangu.
According to legend, in the beginning, there was only darkness and chaos, and the sky and earth were one blurred entity. This vast "egg," as the Chinese call it, was subjected to two opposing forces or principles. The interaction between the two forces the yin (passive or negative female principle) and yang (active or positive male principle) gave birth to Pangu, causing the egg's shell to crack.
Pangu has been depicted in many ways. He sometimes appears as a dwarf with two horns on his head, clothed in skins or leaves, and holding a hammer in one hand and a chisel in the other or the symbol of the yin and yang . Pang has also been portrayed holding the sun in one hand and the moon in the other. He is often accompanied by his companions, the four supernatural animals: the phoenix, dragon, unicorn and tortoise.
The separation of the sky and earth took 18,000 years to complete: the yang, which was light and pure, rose to become the sky; the yin , which was heavy and murky, sank to form the earth. Between the sky and earth was Pangu, who underwent nine changes every day: His wisdom greater than that of the sky and his ability greater than that of the earth. Every day the sky rose ten feet, the earth became ten feet thicker and Pangu grew ten feet taller. Another 18,000 years passed and the sky was very high; the earth, dense and Pangu, extremely tall. His body then dissolved and his head became the mountains; his breath, the wind and clouds; his voice, the thunder; his left eye, the sun and his right eye, the moon. Pangu's beard became the stars; his four limbs, the four quadrants of the globe; his blood, the rivers and his veins and muscles, the layers of the earth. His flesh became the soil; his skin and hair, the trees and plants; his semen, pearls; his marrow, precious stones and his sweat turned into rain. All in all, Pangu and the universe became one.

【英文版的嫦娥奔月故事】
One day, when Houyi was out, Chang'e secretly swallowed the potion（一劑） in the hope that she would become immortal. The result was quite unexpected: she felt herself becoming light, so light that she flew up in spite of herself, drifting and floating in the air, until she reached the palace of the moon.
She is regarded by later generations as the goddess of the moon.
This beautiful story has always been liked by the Chinese and provides a favourite allusion（暗示） for poets and writers.
Chairman Mao Zedong's poem in memory of his martyred（有犧牲精神的） wife Yang Kaihui has these well - known lines:
The lonely moon goddess spreads her ample sleeves
To dance for these loyal souls in infinite space.
Here, in the Chinese original, the name Chang'e is used instead of "moon goddess".
The figure of Chang'e, a beauty dressed in the elegant garments of a bygone（過去） age floating towards the moon, naturally supplies unending inspiration for painters and sculptors.
