成都有个老中医,把自己关在玻璃房子里,声称要挑战极限,绝食四十八天。过了四十八天,他从那个房子里出来后,即向外界宣布“挑战成功”。在这整个过程中,以及此前此后,好多媒体都给予了极大的关注,或跟踪报道,或连发评论,好像真的发生了一件什么大事儿。 There is an old Chinese doctor in Chengdu, shutting himself up in a glass house, claiming to challenge the limit, hunger strike forty-eight days. Forty-eight days after he came out of the house, he declared to the outside world that “the challenge was successful.” Throughout this process, and hereafter, a lot of the media has given a great deal of attention, or follow-up reports, or bursts of comments, as if something really happened.
