game as Ned Kelly勇敢无畏

【使用地区】：澳大利亚

【释义】：

It cost nearly half a million dollars to capture Australia’s Kelly gang，even though the band was only four in number．Ned Kelly(1854－1880)，son of a transported Belfast convict and a convicted horse thief himself，took to the hills with his brother Daniel when the latter was charged with horse stealing．Joined by two other desperadoes，the brothers held up towns and robbed banks for two years until the police finally caught up with them．Ned Kelly became something of a folk hero，and the great deprivations he suffered led to the phrase game as Ned Kelly．When the gang was traced at last to a wooden shanty hideout，police riddled it with bullets，burned the shack down，and found Ned Kelly alive and dressed in a suit of armor．He was tried，convicted，and hanged for his crimes．

抓捕澳大利亚的凯利团伙(Kellygang)花了将近50万美元，尽管该团伙总共只有四人。NedKelly(1854－1880)是一个流放的贝尔法斯特犯人的儿子，他自己也是一个盗马贼。他和他兄弟一起逃到山上。他兄弟也被指控犯有偷马罪。这两兄弟和其他两个亡命徒持械拦截各个城镇，抢劫银行达两年之久，直到警方最终将他们逮捕。Ned Kely成了民间的英雄，他所遭受的不幸促使了该词语的产生。当该团伙最后被追踪到一个小木屋里躲藏起来时，警方用枪一阵扫射，烧毁了木屋，发现凯利仍活着，身穿一套盔甲。他因其所犯罪行而被审讯、判刑，最后被绞死。
