Eccentric billionaire Chiquinho Scarpa ruffled (làm trái ý, làm mếch lòng) more than a few feathers in his native Brazil recently when he announced plans to bury his beloved Bentley.

The businessman said he would bury his $500,000 luxury car - a black Bentley Flying Spur- so that he could drive it in the afterlife (thế giới bên kia, thế giới âm, hậu kiếp). 62-year-old Scarpa said he had been inspired after watching a TV documentary on the Egyptians, who were buried with their most precious belongings.

Needless to say, the plan drew an avalanche (tuyết lở, tràng dồn dập) of criticism on social media, with people labelling him as cruel, elitist and downright (đích thực, rành rành) insane (điên cuồng, mất trí). Poverty campaigners savaged him for his “wasteful lunacy (hành động điên rồ, cử chỉ điên dại, ý nghĩ rồ dại)”, saying that the car could have been donated (hiến) to charity (từ thiện).

...Just as the car was about to be lowered into the ground, Scarpa called an abrupt (đột ngột) halt (dừng) to proceedings. He told the assembled media: “I have not buried my car. Everyone thought it absurd when I said I’d do it. It is absurd to bury bodies, which can save many lives. Nothing is more valuable. Be a donor (người hiến tặng), tell your family”.
