Answer 1

紅字的部分是在說什麼呢？Sometimes, when a castle
or mansion was being sacked, a faithful servant or two contrived to
rescue the plate chest, and to cast it into a deep pool in the nearest
stream.有時候, 當城堡或者豪宅被洗劫/偷盜時, 會有一兩個忠實的僕人試著搶救裝盔甲的寶箱, 而將它丟進附近溪河中的深處.being sacked是什麼意思？being sacked 通常是被開除的意思, 這來自sack (沙包, 打包) - 老闆叫你打包, 也就是叫你離職的意思. 但在這段英文裡是被別人來sack - 別人來你的城堡裡打包, 就是搶劫的意思.rescue the plate chest又是什麼意思勒？chest 就像treasure chest 一樣的意思, 是裝東西的大盒子. plate 是指armour, 古代金屬很稀少, 盔甲是很值錢, 也有很多象徵性(譬如家族/地位/榮譽等等)的物品, 所以在搶劫時必須保護. 這段話解釋了這個現象, 並且介紹一般僕人會做的動作 - 將他丟到附近的深水中(太重帶不走, 所以等未來回來撈).注: 這是英式英文的意解 如有不適合的地方還請見諒
