1. So you want to start a garden, but you're worried that all your efforts will go to waste when your dog traipses through, digging up your plants and snacking on the manure used as fertilizer, then licking you with a manure-infused tongue?
所以，你要开始一个花园，但你担心，你的努力将付诸东流当你的狗traipses通过，挖你的植物和吃零食的粪便作为肥料，然后舔你的肥料，注入舌？
2. As one sips the fragrant brew, the mind traipses back a year or so, recalling with some trepidation the stealthy inroads the Chinese dragon has been making in the day-to-day aspects of our lives.
在品尝这芬芳的泡茶的同时，思绪回到一年多以前，不安地想起中国龙如何鬼鬼祟祟地进入我们生活的方方面面。
