An Apple of Discord 争斗之源；祸根•An Apple of Discord直译为“纠纷的苹果”，出自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事•阿耳戈英雄(Argonaut)珀琉斯(Peleus) 西蒂斯(Thetis) 奥林匹斯(Olympus) 女神厄里斯(Eris) 天后赫拉(Hera)，智慧女神雅典娜(Athena)、爱与美之神阿芙罗狄蒂(Aphrodite)， 众神之父宙斯(Zeus) 绝世美女海伦(Helen)， 在英语中产生了an apple of discord这个成语，常用来比喻any subject of disagreement and contention; the root of the trouble; dispute等意义 n1.An Apple of Discord争斗之源；不和之因；祸根争斗之源；不和之因；祸根n An Apple of Discord直译为“纠纷的苹果”，出自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事n 传说希腊阿耳戈英雄(Argonaut)珀琉斯(Peleus)和爱琴海海神涅柔斯的女儿西蒂斯(Thetis)在珀利翁山举行婚礼，大摆宴席。
n他们邀请了奥林匹斯上(Olympus)的诸神参加喜筵，不知是有意还是无心，惟独没有邀请掌管争执的女神厄里斯(Eris)这位女神恼羞成怒，决定在这次喜筵上制造不和于是，她不请自来，并悄悄在筵席上放了一个金苹果，上面镌刻着“属于最美者”几个字天后赫拉(Hera)，智慧女神雅典娜(Athena)、爱与美之神阿芙罗狄蒂(Aphrodite)，都自以为最美，应得金苹果，获得“最美者”称号她们争执不下，闹到众神之父宙斯(Zeus)那里，但宙斯碍于难言之隐，不愿偏袒任何一方，就要她们去找特洛伊的王子帕里斯(Paris)评判三位女神为了获得金苹果，都各自私许帕里斯以某种好处：赫拉许给他以广袤国土和掌握富饶财宝的权利，雅典娜许以文武全才和胜利的荣誉，阿芙罗狄蒂则许他成为世界上最美艳女子的丈夫年青的帕里斯在富贵、荣誉和美女之间选择了后者，便把金苹果判给爱与美之神为此，赫拉和雅典娜怀恨帕里斯，连带也憎恨整个特洛伊人 n后来阿芙罗狄蒂为了履行诺言，帮助帕里斯拐走了斯巴达国王墨涅俄斯的王后---绝世美女海伦(Helen)，从而引起了历时10年的特洛伊战争不和女神厄里斯丢下的那个苹果，不仅成了天上3位女神之间不和的根源，而且也成为了人间2个民族之间战争的起因。
因此，在英语中产生了an apple of discord这个成语，常用来比喻any subject of disagreement and contention; the root of the trouble; dispute等意义n 这个成语最初为公元2世纪时的古罗马历史学家马克·朱里·尤斯丁(Marcus Juninus Justinus)所使用，后来广泛的流传到欧洲许多语言中去，成为了一个国际性成语n eg: He throwing us an apple of discord, we soon quarrelled again.n The dispute about inheriting estate formed an apple of discord between them.n This problem seems to be an apple of discord between the Soviet union and the USA. 1. An apple of discord争端, 祸根 Meaning: any subject of disagreement and contention; the root of the trouble; dispute e.g. He threw us an apple of discord and we soon quarreled again Our quarrel was stirred up by him.The prince of Troy, Paris, is deciding which goddess to award with the golden apple.

The story is that Achilles, one of the Greek heroes in the “Iliad” (另一部古希腊史诗般的著作：《伊利亚特》), another epic attributed to Homer, was taken by his mother when he was a child and dipped in the rive Styx(冥河) to make him invulnerable. The water washed every part of his body except the heel in his mother’s hand. It was precisely at his vulnerable point that Achilles was later killed in battle. n2.The Heel of Achilles 亦作亦作The Achilles' Heel唯一弱点；薄唯一弱点；薄弱环节；要害弱环节；要害n The Heel of Achilles直译是“阿基里斯的脚踵”，是个在欧洲广泛流行的国际性成语。
它源自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事n 阿基里斯是希腊联军里最英勇善战的骁将，也是荷马史诗Iliad里的主要人物之一传说他是希腊密耳弥多涅斯人的国王珀琉斯和海神的女儿西蒂斯所生的儿子阿基里斯瓜瓜坠地以后，母亲想使儿子健壮永生，把他放在火里锻炼，又捏着他的脚踵倒浸在冥河(Styx)圣水里浸泡因此阿基里斯浑身象钢筋铁骨，刀枪不入，只有脚踵部位被母亲的手捏住，没有沾到冥河圣水，成为他的唯一要害在特洛伊战争中，阿基里斯骁勇无敌，所向披靡，杀死了特洛伊主将，著名英雄赫克托耳(Hector)，而特洛伊的任何武器都无法伤害他的身躯后来，太阳神阿波罗(Apollo)把阿基里斯的弱点告诉了特洛伊王子帕里斯，阿基里斯终于被帕里斯诱到城门口，用暗箭射中他的脚踵，负伤而死n 因此，the heel of Achilles,也称the Achilles' heel，常用以表示a weak point in something that is otherwise without fault;the weakest spot等意思n eg: The shortage of fortitude is his heel of Achilles.n His Achilles' heel was his pride--he would get very angry if anyone criticized his work. 2. the heel of Achilles or the Achilles’ heel Achilles heel 艾基利斯之踵的弱点； 要害(来自希腊神话)The story: When Achilles’ mother dipped him in the river which could make him invincible, she held him by the heel. As a result, the water never touched that portion of his foot. So the only way of killing him was to injure his heel; the heel became Achilles' weakness. Ultimately that's how he died in the Trojan War; an arrow pierced his heel. Meaning: a weak point in something that is otherwise without faulte.g. His Achilles’ heel was his pride—he would get very angry if anyone criticized his work.He would get very angry if anyone criticized his work. That is his fatal shortcoming.

•Helen是希腊的绝世佳人，美艳无比，嫁给希腊南部邦城斯巴达国王墨涅俄斯(Menelaus)为妻•阿枷门农(Agamemnon)为联军统帅，浩浩荡荡，跨海东征，攻打特洛伊城，企图用武力夺回海轮足智多谋的奥德修斯(Odusseus)的“木马计”，里应外合才攻陷了特洛伊 3. Helen of Troy n3.Helen of Troy 直译直译"特洛伊的海伦特洛伊的海伦"，源自源自荷马史诗，源自源自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事中的希腊神话故事n Helen是希腊的绝世佳人，美艳无比，嫁给希腊南部邦城斯巴达国王墨涅俄斯(Menelaus)为妻后来，特洛伊王子帕里斯奉命出事希腊，在斯巴达国王那里做客，他在爱与美之神阿芙罗狄蒂的帮助下，趁着墨涅俄斯外出之际，诱走海伦，还带走了很多财宝n 此事激起了希腊各部族的公愤，墨涅俄斯发誓说，宁死也要夺回海轮，报仇雪恨为此，在希腊各城邦英雄的赞助下，调集十万大军和1180条战船，组成了希腊联军，公推墨涅俄斯的哥哥阿枷门农(Agamemnon)为联军统帅，浩浩荡荡，跨海东征，攻打特洛伊城，企图用武力夺回海轮双方大战10年，死伤无数，许多英雄战死在沙场。
甚至连奥林匹斯山的众神也分成2个阵营，有些支持希腊人，有些帮助特洛伊人，，彼此展开了一场持久的恶斗最后希腊联军采用足智多谋的奥德修斯(Odusseus)的“木马计”，里应外合才攻陷了特洛伊希腊人进城后，大肆杀戮，帕里斯王子也被杀死，特洛伊的妇女、儿童全部沦为奴隶特洛伊城被掠夺一空，烧成了一片灰烬战争结实后，希腊将士带着大量战利品回到希腊，墨涅俄斯抢回了美貌的海轮重返故土这就是特洛伊战争的起因和结局正是由于海轮，使特洛伊遭到毁灭的悲剧，真所谓“倾国倾城”，由此产生了Helen of Troy这个成语 n 特洛伊战争的真实性，已为19世纪德国考古学家谢里曼在迈锡尼发掘和考证古代特洛伊古城废墟所证实至于特洛伊城被毁的真正原因，虽然众说纷纭，但肯定决不是为了一个美女而爆发这场战争的，与其说是为了争夺海轮而打了起来，毋宁说是为了争夺该地区的商业霸权和抢劫财宝而引起战争的所谓“特洛伊的海伦”，实质上是财富和商业霸权的化身中国历史上也有过“妲己亡商”，“西施沼吴”等传说，以及唐明皇因宠杨贵妃而招致“安史之乱”，吴三桂“冲冠一怒为红颜”等说法汉语中有个“倾国倾城”的成语（语出《汉书·外戚传》：‘一顾倾人城，再顾倾人国’。
这里的“倾”字一语双光，既可指美艳非凡，令人倾倒；也可纸倾覆邦国其含义与Helen of troy十分近似n 在现代英语中，Helen of Troy这个成语，除了表示a beautiful girl or woman; a beauty who ruins her country等意义外，还可以用来表示a terrible disaster brought by sb or sth you like best的意思n eg: It is unfair that historians always attribute the fall of kingdoms to Helen of Troy.n She didn't think of the beautiful umbrella bought the day before should become a Helen of Troy in her family. Because of this she and her husband quarreled for a long time. 3. Helen of Troy•In modern English，Helen of Troy means – beautiful girl or woman; – beauty who ruins her country–a terrible disaster brought by sb or sth you like best 4.The Trojan Horse4.The Trojan Horse木马计；暗藏的危险；奸细木马计；暗藏的危险；奸细•The Trojan Horse-- 直译“特洛伊木马”，是个国际性成语，在世界各主要语言中都有。

到了半夜，特洛伊人好梦正在酣，毫无戒备的时候，藏在木马里的希腊英雄们都爬了出来，打开城门，发出信号，与附近海湾里返回的希腊大军里应外合，一举摧毁了特洛伊城n 因此，The Trojan Horse经过不断引用而成为一个广泛流传的成语，常用来比喻the hidden danger; the covert wreckers（内奸）;to engage in underhand activities等的意义n eg: The superpowers are always sending the Trojan horses to many countries in the world.n They are defeated only because of the Trojan horse in their country. 4.The Trojan Horse木马计•eg: The superpowers are always sending the Trojan horses to many countries in the world.• They are defeated only because of the Trojan horse in their country. 5.Greek Gift(s) 5.Greek Gift(s) 阴谋害人的礼物；黄鼠狼拜年，不安阴谋害人的礼物；黄鼠狼拜年，不安好心好心•Greek Gift(s) translated as “希腊人的礼物”，出自荷马史诗 《奥德赛》 (Odyssey) 以及古罗马杰出诗人维吉尔(Publius Virgilius Maro, 70BC –19BC)的史诗《伊尼特》(Aeneis)中关于特洛伊城陷落经过的叙述。
n5.Greek Gift(s)阴谋害人的礼物；黄鼠狼拜年，阴谋害人的礼物；黄鼠狼拜年，不安好心不安好心n Greek Gift(s)直译是“希腊人的礼物”，出自荷马史诗《奥德赛》以及古罗马杰出诗人维吉尔(Publius Virgilius Maro,公元前70-前19年)的史诗《伊尼特》(Aeneis)中关于特洛伊城陷落经过的叙述n 据《奥德赛》卷8记述：许多特洛伊人对如何处置希腊人留下的大木马展开了辩论，“他们有三种主张：有的主张用无情的铜矛刺透中空的木马；有的主张把它仍到岩石上；有的主张让它留在那里作为京观，来使天神喜悦”结果是后一说占优势，把那匹木马拖进城里来，终于遭到了亡国之灾 n 维吉尔的史诗《伊尼特》，写的是特洛伊被希腊攻陷后，王子伊尼斯从混乱中携家属出走，经由西西里、迦太基到达意大利，在各地漂泊流亡的情况史诗第2卷便是伊尼斯关于特洛伊城陷落经过的叙述，其中情节除了模拟荷马史诗的描述外，还做了更详细的补充当特洛伊人要把大木马拖进城的时候，祭司拉奥孔(Laocoon)劝说不要接受希腊人留下的东西他说：“我怕希腊人，即使他们来送礼”这句话后来成了一句拉丁谚语：“Timeo Danaos,et dona ferenteso."（原文的达奈人Danaos，即泛指希腊各部族人）译成英语就是：I fear the Greeks ,even when bringing gifts.其简化形式就是Greek Gifts.可惜特洛伊人不听拉奥孔的警告，把木马作为战利品拖进城里。
木马里藏着希腊的精锐部队，给特洛伊人带来了屠杀和灭亡由此，Greek gift成为一个成语，表示a gift with some sinister purposes of the enemy; one given with intent to harm; a gift sent in order to murder sb等意思，按其形象意义，这个成语相当与英语的俚谚：When the fox preaches, take care of your geese；也与汉语“黄鼠狼给鸡拜年--不安好心”十分类似n eg: He is always buying you expensive clothes, I'm afraid they are Greek gifts for you.n Comrades, be on guard against the Greek gifts! 5.Greek Gift(s)•当特洛伊人要把大木马拖进城的时候，祭司(flamen)拉奥孔(Laocoon)劝说不要接受希腊人留下的东西他说：“我怕希腊人，即使他们来送礼”这句话后来成了一句拉丁谚语：“Timeo Danaos,et dona ferenteso."（原文的达奈人Danaos，即泛指希腊各部族人）译成英语就是：I fear the Greeks, even when bringing gifts.其简化形式Greek Gifts. 5.Greek Gift(s)•由此，Greek gift成为一个成语，表示a gift with some sinister purposes of the enemy; one given with intent to harm; a gift sent in order to murder sb等意思，按其形象意义，这个成语相当与英语的俚谚：When the fox preaches, take care of your geese；也与汉语“黄鼠狼给鸡拜年--不安好心”类似 5.Greek Gift(s) • He is always buying you expensive clothes, I'm afraid they are Greek gifts for you.•Be on guard against the Greek gifts!

特洛伊，就是让人用木马计攻陷了的城市，不过这个词为人所熟知怕是要拜托黑客们的backdoor艺术）； in Greek mythology, his abduction of the beautiful Helen led to the Trojan War.而古希腊的史诗《奥德塞》更堪称“典故大全”，是我们了解英文典故的“朝圣之路”：In some ways “The Odyssey” is like our “Pilgrimage to the West”. There ‘re numerous English allusions to events or people in the story, such as Cyclops(赛克罗波斯) a one-eyed giant that Odysseus had to deal with; or Circe(赛丝), the beautiful enchantress 女巫 who charmed her victims and then turned them into swine猪, 卑贱的人• •Cyclops【希腊神话】 • Any of the three one-eyed Titans who forged thunderbolts for Zeus.泰坦神：为宙斯制造雷电的三个独眼泰坦神之一• Any of a race of one-eyed giants, reputedly descended from these Titans, inhabiting the island of Sicily.独眼巨人：独眼巨人家族的任何一个，据说从这些泰坦传下来，居住在西西里岛.
