"A boon and a bane" = vui vẻ và tai ương -> nghĩa là cái gì vừa có lợi vừa có hại.

Ví dụ
The NBA’s hiatus (gián đoạn) has been both a boon and a bane. For fans it has been a worrying time, going through for months without watching competitive basketball.

The year 2020 has been a boon and a bane for the environment. In the initial (ban đầu) two months of the lockdown, we cheered for all the goodness — pollution levels were at the lowest, waste generated was down by almost 50 per cent, no noise pollution, hidden wildlife made cameo appearances — that made us believe nature was healing.

The 45-year-old says amid (giữa) all this period social media has been both a boon and a bane. The actor admits he was quite taken aback by how some celebrities have been over doing it on social media and sharing more what’s needed.
