【Transcript】
A: Did you know that Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize?
B: Yes. The Nobel Committee must be crazy; they really made a wrong decision.
A: Why?
B: You know no presidents can be a real pacifist; they can only focus on their own nation’s benefits.
A: Maybe you are right, but I think the Committee made a wise decision.
B: How did you get this conclusion?
A: The Nobel Committee compelled Obama to be a pacifist by conferring the prize on him. So the world can be really peaceful.
B: It is interesting. It seems that it’s Tripitaka’s Curse.
A: Yes, the Nobel Peace Prize is an inhibiting magic phrase.
B: It looks like I should support the decision.
【注】pacifist n. 和平主义者;Tripitaka’s Curse 三藏的紧箍咒;inhibiting a. 约束的
