Means：Not be friendly any more.

For example:

Wèi le qián,tā hé péngyǒu fānliǎnle.
为 了 钱， 他 和 朋 友 翻 脸 了

(He abandoned his friends for money.)

【 害 群 之 马】

Means：black sheep. Person who brings bad influence to others.

For example:

Dà jiā dōu rèn wéi tāng mǔ shì hài qún zhī mǎ.

大 家 都 认 为  汤 姆 是 害 群 之 马。

(People all consider Tom as a black sheep.)

Further explanation:

It was about four thousand years ago. Huangdi (Yellow Emperor)-the first legendary ruler in China went to the countryside to visit an old friend with his entourage. They met a boy keeping watch over a herd of horses on their way.

Huangdi asked the boy, ‘Do you know the way to my friend\’s village far away from here?’

The boy said yes.

Then the emperor asked, ‘Do you know my friend?’

The answer was yes again.

Huangdi thought the boy was broad-minded. So he asked him,’Do you know how to rule a country?’

The boy said, ‘There is little difference between ruling a country and watching over a herd of horses. You simply have to drive the wild horses out of the herd.’

The emperor left, brooding over the boy\’s words.

The idiom ‘The horse which does harm to the herd – A black sheep’ is taken from what the boy said and is used to describe anyone who has a bad influence on his peers.

大约四千年前，黄帝－传说中中国的第一个帝王，带着随从去乡村看望他的一个老朋友。路上，他们遇到了一个看守马群的小男孩。

由于去朋友的村庄路途遥远，黄帝就问小男孩：“你知不知道村庄的路？那儿住着我的一个朋友。”

男孩说知道。

黄帝又问男孩：“认不认识我的朋友？”

男孩回答认识。

黄帝想这小孩懂这么多，于是问他：“你知道该怎样治理国家吗？”

男孩说：“治理国家的方法和看守一群马差不多。只要把野马从马群里赶出去就行了。”

黄帝离开时一直想着小男孩的话。

成语“害群之马”出自于这个小男孩说的话，用来形容给集体带来坏影响的人。

But we are prepared for it because we have warm cloth. But how about the people that live in poverty stricken areas are they prepare for the winter?

Unfortunately they do not have enough warm clothes and have to struggle through the long winter.

Please, if you have any extra winter clothes, and do not need them anymore or if they don’t fit anymore, you can make a donation to help those less fortunate.

They will not only warm the poverty stricken peoples for the winter but it will also warm their heart！

Here is the address if you feel the need send clothes to those less fortunate.寒冷的冬天来了，大家是否感觉到了阵阵寒意？

我们包裹上暖和的外衣，冬天也展开笑颜。可是…偏远贫困山区的人们只能忍受饥饿寒冷熬过这个冬天。如果我们有额外的旧衣服，为什么不捐献出来，不仅节省了储衣室的空间，而且帮助了他人，给灾区的人们送上温暖，更重要的是在他们的心里洒下阳光。我们将把衣物汇总，联合感恩中国，将衣服送到山区，并且把捐献衣物的人们名单做成Excel表格上传至群空间，感恩中国收到我们募捐的衣物之后会跟踪拍摄照片，我们会在第一时间在网上公布我们的照片。感谢各位爱心人士。

ChinaPax is an international education center that offers a unique and naturalistic approach to language acquisition.

We specialize in teaching Chinese to clients who need to quickly grasp a basic understanding of the language and its subtle cultural understandings to operate successfully in a business environment. ChinaPax strives to use our mandarin training programs as an avenue to channel cultural, economic and social exchanges between China and the world.

The ChinaPax team has developed a unique method to teach written and oral Chinese for business settings. Our teaching approach combines essential vocabulary for the work environment with Chinese business culture. Our speedy “Chinese Pop Culture 101” course is for clients who want to pick up key phrases to make any dinner meeting or gathering with Chinese clients or friends a success.

We designed “MyCT Revolutionary Chinese” mandarin courses as an effective way to learn Chinese characters based on 29 Chinese radicals. In fact, these courses are sold by L Labs Inc. in Mainland China, Taiwan, and Japan and have been incorporated into Communication Chinese Teaching Material for Taiwan University.
