Some run a hundred paces and stop; some run fifty paces and stop. What would you think if those who run fifty paces were to laugh at those who run a hundred paces?/他笑话我不懂一丁点英语，但他只不过认识英语字母而已，真是～。He laughs at my complete ignorance of English,but what he knows about English is only the alphabet-it’s the pot calling the kettle black,I’d say.
