戴高帽翻译加道理

原：俗以喜人面谀者曰“喜戴高帽”有京朝官出仕于外者，往别其师。师曰：“外官不易为，宜慎之。”其人曰：“某备有高帽一百，逢人辄送其一，当不至有所龃龉也.。”师怒曰：“吾辈直道事人，何需如此！”其人曰：“天下不喜戴高帽如吾师者，能有几人欤？”师颔其首曰：“汝言亦不为无见。”其人出，语人曰：“吾高帽一百，今止存九十九矣。”
译：通常把当面奉承让人高兴的话叫做“戴高帽”。有个京官要到外地去任职，离京前去和他的老师告别。他的老师说：“外面的官不容易做，应当谨慎些。”那人说：“我准备了一百顶高帽，逢人就送他一顶，应当不至于有关系不融洽的人。”老师生气的说：“我们以正直的原则侍奉上级，给别人做事，为什么需要这样呢？”那人说：“天下像老师您这样不喜欢戴高帽的人，能有几个呢？”老师点了点头表示赞同他说：“你的话也不是没有道理。”那个人出来后对别人说：“我原有一百顶高帽子，现在只剩九十九顶了。” 这个故事说明当局者迷。后用以比喻对人说恭维的话。
