4. Salad Days: 一個人的青春年少時光
How Shakespeare used it:
In Antony and Cleopatra, Cleopatra recalls her relationship with Julius Caesar that occurred during, "My salad days, / When I was green in judgment...." (Act 1, Scene 5)
莎士比亞原文：在《安東尼與克莉奧佩特拉》中，克莉奧佩特拉回憶起她與凱撒的那一段感情在“我青春年少的時光，我還不太會看人的時候…”（第1幕第5場）
Originally, English speakers used salad days with Cleopatra's meaning: a time of youthful inexperience or indiscretion. These days, however, it usually means "an early flourishing period" – in other words, a heyday.
最初，英語使用者只用salad days表示克莉奧佩特拉所說的“青春、稚嫩的時光”。不過現(xiàn)在，這個短語通常表示“鼎盛時期”。
現(xiàn)代例句：
"I know there are some people who still think this show is good, or watchable.... Just because there are a few cool things left from the salad days doesn't mean Heroes isn't a mess." — Darren Franich, EntertainmentWeekly.com, Nov. 10, 2009
