The best abollas were dyed with the Tyrian purple.

Ceispinus did not heed to whom he gave his Tyrian abolla (cloak used at suppers) when he changed his dress, and resumed his toga. Whoever has got it, we pray thee, restore it to its proper shoulders. It is not Crispinus, but his abolla requires this of thee; for it is not every one to whom a dress dyed with purple is suitable; that colour is excluseively appropriated to luxury. If thou art addicted to theft, and feelest a craving thirst for gain, take a toga, not an abolla; there will be less danger of detection.

The Southeast uplands are generally poor in mineral resources, but coal and iron were evidently abundant enough to justify the construction of a medium-size integrated iron and steel plant in Fukien at Sanming during the Great Leap. Coal for the Sanming operation is mined in the Changping-Lungyen district and iron ore at nearby Hwaan.

She had gone to the Dalian Foreign Language Institute (she hadn't met Cherry Blossom there, unfortunately) but she had been raised in the central Fujian town of Sanming. That town had the reputation in China of being somewhat utopian. It had been developed by people from all over China, before the Cultural Revolution. Miss Wan claimed that everything that had been said about Sanming was true—no problems, no pollution, perfect integration, a model city.
"Any Tibetans in Sanming?"
"No," Miss Wan said. "They have to stay in Tibet and solve their own problems. But people in Sanming are very civilized. They are from all places. Like the United States!"

insultant

The insult is one of the highest art forms. It is a form of minimalism, like the minimalism of an abstract artist.

The insultant draws lines on a person to reduce them to the person they see and want others to see; and lines which they want the insulted one to feel.

Most of these vessels are built in Chinese Taipei (see Table 6.4). In fact, of the 51 fishing vessels over 24 metres built in Chinese Taipei over the past three years, 50 were flagged in FOC countries by the end of 2003, while only one was flagged in Chinese Taipei. It would be worth further investigation to determine whether any of the companies in Chinese Taipei involved in building new vessels have benefited from funds for the joint Japan/Chinese Taipei programme designed to decommission large- scale tuna longline vessels. Further, given the status of Chinese Taipei as a “Co-operating Party, Entity or Fishing Entity” of ICCAT, the government should be encouraged to ensure that no vessels built in Chinese Taipei shipyards are allowed to register to flag of convenience countries.

這些船舶大部分是在中華臺北建造的（見表 6.4）。事實上，在過去三年中華臺北建造的51艘24公尺以上漁船中，截至2003年底，有50艘懸掛方便旗國國旗，而只有一艘懸掛中華臺北國旗。值得進一步調查的是，是否有任何參與建造新船的中華臺北公司受益於日本/中華臺北聯合計劃的資金，該計劃旨在使大型金槍魚延繩釣漁船退役。此外，鑑於中華臺北作為ICCAT的「合作方、實體或漁業實體」的地位，應鼓勵政府確保中華臺北造船廠建造的船舶不得在方便旗國註冊。

China was in white jerseys as the home team, and the Taiwanese players wore blue jerseys labeled with the initials C.T., for Chinese Taipei, the negotiated team name under which Taiwan’s athletes are competing to avoid sensitivities about issues of national sovereignty.

中國隊作為主隊穿著白色球衣，臺灣球員則身穿藍色球衣，上面印有「中華臺北」的首字母「C.T.」，這是臺灣運動員為避免國家主權問題的敏感性而協商使用的隊名。

Over the last few decades, Chinese Taipei has been successful in attracting high-achieving students into the teaching profession. Even so, the education level of teachers in Chinese Taipei has stayed fairly uniform.

在過去的幾十年裡，中華臺北成功地吸引了優秀的學生進入教師行業。 即便如此，中華臺北教師的教育程度仍然相當均勻。

'Taiwan' still used in media coverage
Despite the lack of official "Taiwanese" representation, the name "Taiwan" was still used on some occasions during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
For example, an anchor at Japan's public broadcaster used Taiwan rather than Chinese Taipei to introduce the Taiwanese delegation during the opening ceremony.
Additionally, many foreign media reports about Taiwan's performance during the Olympics also use Taiwan rather than Chinese Taipei to introduce the team.

媒體報導仍使用「臺灣」
儘管缺乏官方「臺灣」代表，但在2020年東京奧運期間，「臺灣」這個名字仍在某些場合使用。
例如，日本公共廣播公司的一位主播在開幕式上用臺灣而不是中華臺北來介紹臺灣代表團。
此外，不少外媒通報臺灣隊在奧運的表現時，也用臺灣而不是中華臺北來介紹代表隊。

Syncretism, however, was the main attraction of Daoism for Qing China. In some instances, Buddhist rites were adopted by Daoist monasteries. In other cases, Buddhist monasteries merged with Daoist ones. Such blending could result in primarily Buddhist temple complexes where certain elements of Daoist worship were retained, as was the case at Baiyunshan in Jia county, Shaanxi; half-Buddhist, half-Daoist settings such as Gaomiao in Zhongwei; or fully syncretic monasteries in which Buddhas, Laozi, and Confucius were all worshiped, such as the Xuankongsi in Hunyuan, Shanxi.

但融合主义是道教在清代中国的主要吸引力。有的道教寺院也会采用佛教仪式；而有的道教寺院则和佛教寺院合并为一体。这种融合可能会形成以佛教寺庙为主的建筑群，其中保留了道教崇拜的某些元素，如陕西佳县白云山；半佛半道的设置，如中卫高庙；或（儒释道）完全合一的寺院，供奉佛、老子、孔子，如山西浑源的悬空寺。

praising

We ask people all the time, “How many of you are sick and tired of all the praisings you get at work or at home?” Everybody laughs, because most of us do not naturally think of cheering each other on.

我们经常问别人：“你们中有多少人对在工作中或家中得到的所有赞扬感到厌烦？”每个人都笑了，因为我们大多数人不会自然而然地想到互相鼓励。
