用英語說成語:大公無私（雙語）
Chi Huang-yang lived during the Spring and Autumn Period (chūn qiū 春秋時(shí)期,770- 476 BC0. When the king asked him who he thought would be a suitable magistrate for Nan-yang Country, Chi Huang-yang answered, "Shie Hu would definitely do a very good job." The king was very surprised at this answer, and asked him, "Isn't Shie Hu your enemy? How come you're suggesting that he do the job?"
Chi Huang-yang replied, "You only asked me who would make a suitable magistrate for Nan-yang Country; you didn't ask me whether or not Shie Hu was my enemy!" So the king sent Shie Hu to be the magistrate of Nan-yang Country, and as expected, he did many good things for the people there.
When Confucius heard about this, he praised Chi Huang-yang highly. When recommending a person for a job, Chi Huang-yang considered only that person's ability. Even if a person was his enemy, he would still make known that person's good qualities. Chi Huang-yang was a perfectly fair and impartial person.
春秋時(shí)，晉平公有一次問祁黃羊說：
“南陽縣缺個(gè)縣長(zhǎng)，你看，應(yīng)該派誰去當(dāng)比較合適呢?”
祁黃羊毫不遲疑地回答說：
“叫解狐去，最合適了。他一定能夠勝任的!”
平公驚奇地又問他：
“解狐不是你的仇人嗎?你為什么還要推薦他呢!”
祁黃羊說：
“你只問我什么人能夠勝任，誰最合適;你并沒有問我解狐是不是我的仇人呀!”
于是，平公就派解狐到南陽縣去上任了。解狐到任后。替那里的人辦了不少好事，大家都稱頌他。
過了一些日子，平公又問祁黃羊說：
“現(xiàn)在朝廷里缺少一個(gè)法官。你看，誰能勝任這個(gè)職位呢?”
祁黃羊說：“祁午能夠勝任的。”
平公又奇怪起來了，問道：
“祁午不是你的兒子嗎?你怎么推薦你的兒子，不怕別人講閑話嗎?”
祁黃羊說：
“你只問我誰可以勝任，所以我推薦了他;你并沒問我祁午是不是我的兒子呀!”
平公就派了祁午去做法官。祁午當(dāng)上了法官，替人們辦了許多好事，很受人們的歡迎與愛戴。
孔子聽到這兩件事，十分稱贊祁黃羊?？鬃诱f：
“祁黃羊說得太好了!他推薦人，完全是拿才能做標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，不因?yàn)樗亲约旱某鹑?，心存偏見，便不推薦他;也不因?yàn)樗亲约旱膬鹤?，怕人議論，便不推薦。像黃祁羊這樣的人，才夠得上說“大公無私”啦!”
