對外講解漢語成語：杯弓蛇影
導語：杯弓蛇影是古漢語中的一個成語，也是一個典故。下面YJBYS小編對外講解杯弓蛇影的典故，歡迎參考!
在漢朝, 有個縣令名叫應郴。有一年夏天，他請主簿(辦理文書事務的官員)杜宣來家里飲酒。酒席設在廳堂里，北墻上懸掛著一張紅色的弓。由于光線折射，酒杯中映入了弓的影子。杜宣看了，以為是一條蛇在酒杯中蠕動。他非常害怕,但縣令是他的上司，所以不敢不飲。他只得閉著眼睛喝了幾口。
回到家里，杜宣只覺胸腹部疼痛異常，難以忍受，吃飯、喝水都非常困難。
他趕緊請大夫來診治。他服了許多藥，但病情還是不見好轉。
當應郴到杜宣家中，問他怎么會鬧病的，杜宣便講了那天飲酒時酒杯中有蛇的事。應郴覺得非常奇怪。他回到家,反復思考，就是弄不明白杜宣酒杯里怎么會有蛇的。 突然，北墻上的那張紅色的弓引起了他的.注意。“原來是這樣! ”他大喊道。應郴馬上命人把杜宣接來，讓他坐在原位上，并遞給他一杯酒。
杜宣又看到了那像蛇一樣的影子。趁他還沒被嚇的魂飛魄散, 應郴指著那倒影說：“你說的杯中的蛇，不過是墻上那張弓的倒影罷了!”
杜宣弄清原委后，感覺輕松多了，病也立刻就痊愈了。
這則故事后來就演化成成語:“杯弓蛇影” 。形容那些非常多疑的人。
Mistaking the reflection of a bow in the cup for a snake
During the Han Dynasty(206BC- 220AD), there was a county magistrate called Ying Bin. One summer day, he invited his secretary Du Xuan to his house and treated him with wine. On the north wall of the room hung a red bow. It was reflected in Du Xuan's cup. Du Xuan took the reflection for a squirming snake. He was very frightened but he dared not turn down Ying Bin's offer because he was his superior. He had to swallow the wine with his eyes closed.
When he was back at home he felt so painful in his chest and stomach that he could hardly eat and drink any more.
He sent for the doctor and tried much medicine but nothing could cure him.
When Ying Bin asked Du Xuan how he got so seriously ill, Du told him he drank the wine with a snake in his cup e other day. Ying Bin found something strange about that. He turned home, thought hard, but he couldn't find an answer. Suddenly the bow on the north wall caught his eye. "That's it!" he shouted. He immediately sent his man to fetch Du Xuan. He seated him where he sat before and offered him a cup of wine.
Du Xuan saw the snake-like shadow again. Before Du was scared out of his wits again, Ying Bin said, pointing at the shadow, "The 'snake'in the cup is nothing but a reflection of the bow on the north wall!"
Now that Du Xuan knew what it was, he felt much easier. his illness disappeared the next moment!
This story was later contracted into the idiom-mistake the reflection of a bow in the cup for a snake. We use it to describe someone who is very suspicious.
