PRO (1): Last Hermit
When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

为他慷慨赠礼及带着对自己才能的一股适当的中立性,(他的blithesome圣者使的脸很松,半笑着)
1 on account of the generosity of his gift
and 2 with a becoming neutrality towards his own abilities, his saint's blithesome face was loose and half a-smile.
becoming (old fashioned) (老式) (a word which is sometimes used in a humorous way 有时表示幽默)= 1 looking very good on the wearer (穿在身上)合适的 eg Blue always looks very becoming on her. 她穿蓝色的服装总是很合适的. 2 proper or suitable 适当的;适宜的 His laughter was not very becoming on such a solemn occasion. 他在这么庄严的场合发笑有点不太得体.
neutrality 中立 = impartiality
neutral = without strong feelings for or against something 中立的;不偏不倚的. I'm neutral. 我保持中立.
impartial = 公平的;不偏袒的;公正的;不带偏见
generosity of his gift = he is bestowing a generous gift on the listeners (the tone is ironic)
他慷慨赠礼

还有可能the generosity of his gift是:他的天赋(gift)的\'丰满性\'...丰富,充满
generous = 1 willing to give money, help and kindness 慷慨的;大方的 2 larger in amount than usual 大量的;丰富的 eg a generous meal 丰盛的一餐; a generous gift 一份厚礼
but to be \'generously endowed with\' could be 丰满, I think. In other words you can give generously or be given generously.
(be endowed with something = to have a good quality or ability 是具有某种特质,使天生赋有(良好的品质或才能))
