A cent of mirth is worth a dollar of grief.  一分欢乐抵千愁。
  这里的 a cent of 和 a dollar of 都是抽象的量词,不能直译为一美分、一美元,在这里只是为了强调两者在量上的差异。
  Mirth,欢乐,高兴,欢笑。His jokes caused great mirth among his companions.他说的笑话引得同伴们哈哈大笑。它的形容词形式是 mirthful. a mirthful laugh欢乐的笑声。
  Grief表示悲伤,悲痛。She had to hide her grief.她不得不掩饰自己的悲痛。
