标题[请益] 想问一些句子的典故
时间Sun Aug 21 22:20:58 2011
He made his way through the glorious multitude ,redolent of sweat ,cheap co-
logne and cash. He sashayed up to the cashier's window ,pulled out his wallet ,
and extracted several crisp hundreds. Not even noticing the age or gender of
the teller behind the cage--too busy taking in the passing parade--he tossed
his bills down on the smooth marble and saw them replaced by a neat pile of c-
hips. He swept the chips up ;『they fell as naturally into his hand as the ap-
ple Adam took from Eve.』
『Ah ,the wealth of choices. The cornucopia of pleasures.』
倒数第二个引号我理解成:就像亚当从夏娃那摘频果一样,那些筹码很自然地进到他的手里
是某种譬喻法吗??似乎是在形容他的手很灵巧,尤其是他将那些筹码收到手里的动作.
想知道亚当从夏娃那摘频果的典故是甚麽...不太懂他这样譬喻的意思
最後一个引号我就完全看不懂他的文意在何处了...
只知道cornucopia 是宙斯的羊的羊角(google查的)
也是譬喻吗??
麻烦请板上专业大大们能解释一下还有介绍一下典故之类的~~非常谢谢哦^^
