As an expert in card games, I can provide you with a detailed explanation of how to play Spades, which is the game you're referring to. Spades is a trick-taking game where players try to win tricks with their cards. Here's how you play:

Setup:

1. Players: Spades is typically played by four players in two partnerships.

2. Deck: Use a standard 52-card deck without jokers.

3. Deal: Each player is dealt 13 cards, one at a time, starting with the player to the dealer's left.

Objective:
The primary objective of Spades is to take the number of tricks you bid on during the auction phase.

Bidding:
1. Starting with the player to the dealer's left, each player bids the number of tricks they think they can take with their spades and any other cards.
2. Bids must be at least zero and cannot exceed the number of cards in the player's hand (13).
3. Players proceed clockwise, and each bid must be higher than the previous bid or a pass.
4. Once a bid is passed, no further bids are made.

Playing the Game:
1. The player to the left of the dealer starts by leading any card to the first trick.
2. Players must follow suit if possible. If they cannot follow suit, they may play any card, including a spade.
3. The highest spade played wins the trick, and the winner of the trick leads to the next one.

Scoring:
1. At the end of the game, players score points for the number of tricks they take with their spades or the cards they bid on.
2. If a player takes fewer tricks than they bid, they lose points.
3. The first team to reach 500 points typically wins the game.

Strategy:

1. Bluffing: Sometimes, it's beneficial to play a high spade early to make opponents think you have many spades.

2. Blocking: Use your spades to block opponents from taking tricks.

3. Cooperation: Work with your partner to ensure you take the tricks you bid on.

Now, here's the translation in Chinese:

Spite and Malice. This is a kind of competitive patience (solitaire) game for two players. It is also known as Cat and Mouse. Both players try to be the first to get rid of a pile of "pay-off cards" by playing them to centre stacks which are begun with an ace and continue in upward sequence to a king.
