 斯芬克斯是神话中的怪物
The Sphinx (斯芬克斯，带翼的狮身女怪，传说中常叫过路人猜谜，猜不出就被噬食) is a mythical creature with the body of a lion, the head of a woman, and the wings of a bird. You don't see many of them around, though you might hear someone who is mysteriously quiet described as being (as) silent as the Sphinx. "I've never understood Laura. She rarely talks to anyone. She's silent as the Sphinx." 斯芬克斯是 神话中的怪物，拥有狮子的身体，女人的头，以及鸟的翅膀。或许你身边很少这种人物，但是你可能会听人提到某个神秘地沉默的人被形容为出奇地沉默。“我永远都不明白劳拉这个人，她几乎不和人说话，简直就是出奇地沉默。”
