Pricey prawns
天价虾
This phrase, which means "pricey prawns," originated from a news story on
October 4, in whicha customer was overcharged by a restaurant in Qingdao,
Shandong Province. The diner claimedthat the menu listed a portion of prawns as
costing 38 yuan ($5.9). But when he received thebill, he was told that 38 yuan
was the price of a single prawn, and that he owed about 1,500yuan for the dish.
The news attracted wide public criticism. Many Net users subsequentlystarted to
use "prawn" as a measurement unit for price. "How many prawns is your
monthlysalary?" If you earn 7,600 yuan every month, then, you can answer, "200
prawns."
这个短语的意思是“昂贵的大虾”，它源于10月4日的山东青岛的一个新闻，顾客被一家餐厅多收费。食客声称菜单里一份虾是38元(约5.9美元)，但是，当他收到账单时，才知道38元是一只虾的价格，这样他的帐单就是1500元左右。这一消息引起了公众的广泛批评。许多网友随后开始使用“大虾”作为价格计量单位。“你的月薪多少虾?”如果你每月挣7600元，那么，你可以回答，“200虾”。
Live longer, see more

"Live longer, see more." This saying can be used to express surprise at

and Leon Lai, having sex on a galloping horse.
“活的越久，见识越广。”这个词可以用来表达在看到一些出乎意料的事情的惊讶，或者为意想不到的事情做解释。某网友用这个词来表达对电影《王朝的女人杨贵妃》(2015年)中，范冰冰和黎明两位主角上演马震的一幕的评论。

an online shoppingaddiction. These people spend lots of money shopping for

course, once they're seized by the urge, they forget all about theirprevious
vow.
译为“剁手俱乐部”，这个词语指那些有网上购物瘾的人们。这些人花很多钱购买对他们没用的东西。在最初的购物高峰，他们对自己的挥霍感到后悔，并发誓如果以后再买他们就砍自己的手。当然，一旦他们有了购物的冲动，他们就忘记了自己以前的誓言。

good deal of attention, but a "punny" newtranslation of the Chinese phrase is
winning even greater popularity: "God wants to checkthe air quality," which
plays off the heavy smog recently seen by many Chinese cities.
11月，台湾歌手王心凌在她的微博最新相册里贴了一张照片，照片是王心凌拿着一个汉堡，穿着一件轻薄的而又俗气的复古服装。网友评论说不懂照片的意思，王心凌回答说：“主要看气质。”她的回复引发了大量的关注。但因最近中国北方大部分城市被雾霾笼罩，对这个词“一语双关”的新解读更受大家的欢迎：“上帝(主)想要看空气质量。”
