Carrot and stick (also "carrot or stick") is an idiom that refers to a
policy of offering a combination of rewards and punishment to induce
behavior. Some claim that this usage of phrase is erroneous, and that in
fact comes from the figure of a carrot on a stick. In this case, the driver
would tie a carrot on a string to a long stick and dangle it in front of the
donkey, just out of its reach. As the donkey moved forward to get the
carrot, it pulled ... 阅读全帖 |

to

他的信送去傳信部，又請傳信部部長轉交一份副本給教宗，不過我不知道那副本是否到
達教宗枱上。還好那時韓大輝總主教還在羅馬，他向教宗道別時有機會和他談了汕頭及
