Work with the "Now" “过去”的一切已经成为了过往,你正经历的是“现在”。花费越少的时间和精力回顾“过去”,你就有更多的时间来品味“现在”。不要让对于过去的懊恼和担心消磨了你的斗志。不论过去经历过什么,从中汲取教训,继续前行吧。当你有足够的动力这样做时,你会发现,勇敢前行是对生活最好的诠释。 There are some people who are completely happy with themselves, their lives, and their prospects for the future. While they can be considered to be more fortunate than most, most who do not fall into that category are not as bad off as they tend to believe. Instead, they are simply lacking something, or making mistakes, which are standing in the way of their lives being as fulfilling as they would prefer. Some even go as far as to not realize the immense potential they possess. What is the main difference between those lucky individuals whose lives seem to be wonderfully on-track and those who, often despite every step of trying on their part, appear to have all of the odds stacked against them? While in some cases it is a matter of some people having better luck than others, those whose lives are content in the moment and proceeding in the direction of their choice, do not live in the past. Whether you are thinking about your personality or your life in general, success means focusing on the here-and-now. While it is important to acknowledge the choices and experiences which resulted in you being where you are today, it is equally important to not allow yourself to become so caught up in thoughts of the past that the present day passes you by. Self-motivation is the key to ensuring that you do not continue repeating the same mistakes. You may have had one or more errors in judgment which led you to take the wrong path, or to make mistakes that were not in your best interest. You can acknowledge this without rehashing them over and over again in your mind, and simply be determined to make different, better decisions today. Then is over; this is now. The less time and effort you put into looking at the past, the more you will have for living and experiencing this day. You will also find that letting go of the past will give you a deeper sense of strength. Instead of allowing past mistakes and worries to drain your energies, you will have a renewed energy to live your life to the fullest and enjoy it more. Being content with yourself and optimistic about your future is not difficult. Whatever is in the past is over; learn from it and move on. When you are self-motivated enough to do this, you will see that moving ahead is the best definition of living life. With that said, what can you do now? Sure it is easy for me to tell you to forget the past, yet it is a whole different practice to actually do it. Life is a complex set of events much of which of course is real, yet a large amount is just your view of what really happened. Let me explain with an example. I know not everyone is a football fan but I am guessing most have watched at least part of a game on TV. Most plays and almost all the important plays are played over and over on the TV screen right after the play happened. How many times have you watched a play and were certain and I mean certain of the outcome, say the player caught a pass, then watching the instant replay you realize you were totally wrong, the player dropped the pass. What you were certain you saw, never happened. The first step in trying to minimize the effects of your past in order to concentrate on your future is to find out how much of the past that you are certain happened were just mistakes on your part. A quick example might be as a teenager you tried to build a piece of furniture out of scrape wood in your father’s workshop. The piece of furniture looked good when you finished but fell apart before you could show your father and you assumed your were a lousy carpenter and the rest of your life you have avoided building anything. Yet the reality was the scrap wood you used was faulty and not your building ability. Yet the rest of your life you have believed mistakenly you are a poor builder of things.

动词时态 英语语法中的时态(tense)是一种动词形式,不同的时态用以表示不同的时间与方式。 是表示行为、动作和状态在各种时间条件下的动词形式。因此,当我们说时态结构的时候,指的是相应时态下的动词形式。 下面就英语中常见的十种基本时态进行阐述,其它的时态都是在这十种时态的基础上结合而成的。 所谓“时”就是行为发生的时段或状态存在的时段,即:现在、过去、将来和过去将来四种;所谓“态”就是行为或状态发生时说呈现的状态,有一般状态、进行状态、完成状态或完成进行状态四种。由时和态结合,便形成下列十六种时态: 一般现在时,一般过去时,一般将来时,一般过去将来时; 现在进行时,过去进行时,将来进行时,过去将来进行时; 现在完成时,过去完成时,将来完成时,过去将来完成时; 现在完成进行时,过去完成进行时,将来完成进行时,过去将来完成进行时. 一、 一般现在时: 1.概念:经常、反复发生的动作或行为及现在的某种状况。 2.时间状语: Always, usually, often, sometimes, every week (day, year, month…), once a week(day, year, month…), on Sundays, 3.基本结构:动词 原形 (如主语为第三人称单数,动词上要改为第三人称单数形式) 4.否定形式:主语+am/is/are +not+其他; 此时态的谓语动词若为行为动词,则在其前加don't, 如主语为第三人称单数,则用doesn't,同时还原行为动词。 5.一般疑问句:把be动词放于句首;用助动词do提问,如主语为第三人称单数,则用does,同时,还原行为动词。 6.例句:.

I didn't know you were so busy.
both, either, neither, all, any, none 这些词都可用作代词或形容词。其位置都在be 动词之后,行为动词之前或第一助动词之后。 1) both (两者都),either(两者中任何一个), neither (两者都不)。以上词使用范围为两个人或物。 Neither of the two boys is clever. 两个男孩都不聪明。 2) both,either both与复数连用,either与单数连用。 Both the boys are clever. 两个男孩都很聪明。 Either of the two boys is clever. 两个男孩都很聪明。 There are flowers on both sides of the street.

Happiness is a journey We always convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, than another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more contet when they are. After that we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. we will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage. We always tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse gets his or her act together. when we get a nice car, and are able to go on a nice vocation when we retire. The truth is, there's no better time than right now. If not now, when? our life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to ourselves and decide to be happy anyway. One of my favorite quotes comes from Alfred Souza. He said."for a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin-real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, someting to be gotten through firest, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment that you have. And remember that time waits for no one. So stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back to school; until you get married, until you get divorced; until you have kids; until you retire; until you get a new car or home; until spring; until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy…. Happiness is a journey, not a destination.So, work like you don't need money, love like you've never been hurt, And dance like no one's watching.

最幸福的时刻 In Life We Are Happiest When… 生活中,我们最幸福时 A man and his girlfriend were married. It was a large celebration. 一个男人和他的女朋友结婚,举行了一场盛大的结婚庆典。 All of their friends and family came to see the lovely ceremony and to partake of the festivities and celebrations. All had a wonderful time. 所有的朋友和家人都来到结婚典礼上参加欢宴和庆祝活动。大家都过得很开心。 The bride was gorgeous in her white wedding gown and the groom was very dashing in his black tuxedo. Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true. 穿着白色婚纱的新娘漂亮迷人,穿着黑色礼服的新郎英俊潇洒。每个人都能看出他们彼此的爱是真诚的。 A few months later, the wife came to the husband with a proposal, "I read in a magazine, a while ago, about how we can strengthen our marriage," she offered. "Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our lives happier together." 几个月后,妻子走近丈夫提议说:“我刚才在杂志上看到一篇文章,说的是怎样巩固婚姻。”她说:“我们两个人都各自把对方的小毛病列在一张纸上,然后我们商量一下怎样解决,以便使我们的生活更幸福。” The husband agreed. So each of them went to a separate room in the house and thought of the things that annoyed them about the other. They thought about this question for the rest of the day and wrote down what they came up with. 丈夫同意了。于是他们各自走向不同的房间去想对方的缺点。那一天余下的时间里,他们都在思考这个问题,并且把他们想到的都写下来。 The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided that they would go over their lists. 第二天早上,吃早饭的时候,他们决定谈谈彼此的缺点。 "I'll start," offered the wife. She took out her list. It had many items on it, enough to fill 3 pages. In fact, as she started reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband's eyes. “我先开始吧。”妻子说。她拿出她的单子,上面列举了很多条,事实上,足足写满了三页。当她开始念的时候,她注意到丈夫眼里含着泪花。 "What's wrong?" she asked. "Nothing," the husband replied, "keep reading your list." “怎么啦?”她问。“没什么,”丈夫答道,“继续念吧。” The wife continued to read until she had read all three pages to her husband. She neatly placed her list on the table and folded her hands over the top of it. 妻子又接着念。整整三页都念完之后她把单子整齐地放在桌上,两手交叉放在上面。 "Now, you read your list and then we'll talk about the things on both of our lists," she said happily. “现在该你念了,然后我们谈谈所列举的缺点。”她高兴地说。 Quietly the husband stated, "I don't have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect the way that you are. I don't want you to change anything for me. You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn't want to try and change anything about you." 丈夫平静地说:“我什么也没写,我觉得像你这样就很完美了,我不想让你为我改变什么。你很可爱迷人,我不想让你改变。” The wife, touched by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept. 妻子被丈夫的诚实和对她深深的爱和接纳感动了,她转过头去哭起来。 In life, there are enough times when we are disappointed, depressed and annoyed. We don't really have to go looking for them. We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty, light and promise. Why waste time in this world looking for the bad, disappointing or annoying when we can look around us, and see the wondrous things before us? 生命中我们有很多的失望、沮丧和烦恼,我们根本不需要寻找。我们美妙的世界充满了美丽、光明、希望。但是,当我们放眼四周时,为什么浪费时间寻找不快、失望和烦恼,而看不到我们面前的美好事物呢?

Pen of Life 人生之笔 You couldn't see how much ink it had. It might run dry after the first few tentative words or last just long enough to create a masterpiece(or several) that would last forever and make a difference in the scheme of things. You don't know before you begin. Under the rules of the game, you really never know. You have to take a chance! 看不出里面究竟有多少墨水。或许在你试探性地写上几个字后它就会枯干,或许足够用来创作一部影响深远的不朽巨著(或是几部)。而这些,在动笔前,都是无法得知的。 在这个游戏规则下,你真的永远不会预知结果。你只能去碰运气! And of what would you write: Of love? Hate? Fun? Misery? Life? Death? Nothing? Everything? Would you write to please just yourself? Or others? Or yourself by writing for others? Would your strokes be tremblinglytimid or brilliantly bold? Fancy with a flourish or plain? Would you even write? Once you have the pen, no rule says you have to write. Would you sketch? Scribble? Doodle or draw? Would you stay in or on the lines, or see no lines at all, even if they were there? Or are they? 你又会用笔写下些什么呢:爱?恨?喜?悲?生?死?虚无?万物?你写作只是为了愉己?还是为了悦人?抑或是借替人书写而愉己?你的落笔会是颤抖胆怯的,还是鲜明果敢的?你的想象会是丰富的还是贫乏的?甚或你根本没有落笔?这是因为,你拿到笔以后,没有哪条规则说你必须写作。也许你要画素描,乱写一气?信笔涂鸦?画画?你会保持写在线内还是线上,还是根本看不到线,即使有线在那里?嗯,真的有线吗? There's a lot to think about here, isn't there? 这里面有许多东西值得考虑,不是吗?Now, suppose someone gave you a life... 现在,假如有人给予你一支生命的笔……
方式状语从句 方式状语从句通常由as, (just) as…so…, as if, as though引导。 1) as, (just) as…so…引导的方式状语从句通常位于主句后,但在(just) as…so…结构中位于句首,这时as从句带有比喻的含义,意思是"正如…","就像",多用于正式文体,例如: Always do to the others as you would be done by. 你希望人家怎样待你,你就要怎样待人。 As water is to fish, so air is to man. 我们离不开空气,犹如鱼儿离不开水。 Just as we sweep our rooms, so we should sweep backward ideas from our minds. 正如打扫房屋一样,我们也要扫除我们头脑中落后的东西。 2) as if, as though 两者的意义和用法相同,引出的状语从句谓语多用虚拟语气,表示与事实相反,有时也用陈述语气,表示所说情况是事实或实现的可能性较大。汉译常作"仿佛……似的","好像……似的",例如: They completely ignore these facts as if (as though) they never existed. 他们完全忽略了这些事实,就仿佛它不存在似的。(与事实相反,谓语用虚拟语气。) He looks as if (as though) he had been hit by lighting. 他那样子就像被雷击了似的。(与事实相反,谓语用虚拟语气。) It looks as if the weather may pick up very soon. 看来天气很快就会好起来。(实现的可能性较大,谓语用陈述语气。) 说明:as if / as though也可以引导一个分词短语、不定式短语或无动词短语,例如: He stared at me as if seeing me for first time. 他目不转睛地看着我,就像第一次看见我似的。 He cleared his throat as if to say something. 他清了清嗓子,像要说什么似的。 The waves dashed on the rocks as if in anger. 波涛冲击着岩石,好像很愤怒。
anyone/any one;no one/none;every/each 1.anyone 和 any one anyone仅指人,any one既可指人,也可指物。 2.no one 和none a) none 后跟of短语,既可指人又可指物,而no one只单独使用,只指人。 b) none 作主语,谓语动词用单,复数均可,而no one作主语谓语动词只能是单数。 None of you could lift it. 你们中没有人可举起它。 ---- Did any one call me up just now? --刚才有人打电话给我吗? ---- No one. --没有。 3.every 和each 1) every 强调全体的概念, each强调个体概念。 Every student in our school works hard. 我们学校的学生都很用功。 Each student may have one book.. 每个学生都可有一本书。 2) every 指三个以上的人或物(含三个),each指两个以上的人或物 (含两个)。 3) every 只作形容词,不可单独使用。each可作代词或形容词。 Every student has to take one. Each boy has to take one. Each of the boys has to take one. 4) every不可以作状语,each可作状语。 5) every 有反复重复的意思,如 every two weeks等; each没有。 6) every 与not 连用,表示部分否定; each 和not连用表示全部否定。 Every man is not honest. 并非每个人都诚实。 Each man is not honest. 这儿每个人都不诚实。
相互代词 1)相互代词只有each other和one another两个词组。他们表示句中动词所叙述的动作或感觉在涉及的各个对象之间是相互存在的,例如: It is easy to see that the people of different cultures have always copied each other. 显而易见,不同文化的人总是相互借鉴的。 2) 相互代词的句法功能: a. 作动词宾语; People should love one another. 人们应当彼此相爱。 b. 可作介词宾语; Does bark, cocks crow, frogs croak to each other. 吠、鸡鸣、蛙儿对唱。 说明:传统语法认为,相互关系存在于两个人或物之间用each other, 存在于两个以上人和物之间用one another。现代英语中,两组词交替使用的实例也很多,例如: He put all the books beside each other. 他把所有书并列摆放起来。 He put all the books beside one another. 他把所有书并列摆放起来。 Usually these small groups were independent of each other. 这些小团体通常是相互独立的。 c. 相互代词可加-'s构成所有格,例如: The students borrowed each other's notes. 学生们互借笔记。
Interview the God Come in," God said to me, "so, you would like to interview Me?" "If you have the time," I said. He smiled through His beard and said: "My time is called eternity and is enough to do everything; what questions do you have in mind to ask me?" "None that are new to you. What's the one thing that surprises you most about mankind?" He answered: "That they get bored of being children, are in a rush to grow up, and then long to be children again. That they lose their health to make money and then lose their money to restore their health. That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live neither for the present nor the future. That they live as if they will never die, and they die as if they never had never lived..." His hands took mine and we were silent. After a long period, I said, "May I ask you another question?" He replied with a smile. "As a Father, what would you ask your children to do for the new year?" "To learn that they cannot make anyone love them. What they can do is to let themselves be loved. To learn that it takes years to build trust, and a few seconds to destroy it. To learn that what is most valuable is not what they have in their lives, but who they have in their lives. To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others. There will be others better or worse than they are. To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who needs the least. To learn that they should control their attitudes, otherwise their attitudes will control them. To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in persons we love, and that it takes many years to heal them. To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness. To learn that there are persons that love them dearly, but simply do not know how to show their feelings. To learn that money can buy everything but happiness. To learn that while at times they may be entitled to be upset, that does not give them the right to upset those around them. To learn that great dreams do not require great wings, but a landing gear to achieve. To learn that true friends are scarce, he/she who has found one has found a true treasure. To learn that they are masters of what they keep to themselves and slaves of what they say. To learn that they shall reap what they plant; if they plant gossip they will harvest intrigues, if they plant love they will harvest happiness. To learn that true happiness is not to achieve their goals but to learn to be satisfied with what they already achieved. To learn that happiness is a decision. They decide to be happy with what they are and have, or die from envy and jealousy of what they lack. To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see something totally different. To learn that those who are honest with themselves without considering the consequences go far in life. To learn that even though they may think they have nothing to give, when a friend cries with them, they find the strength to appease the pain. To learn that by trying to hold on to love ones, they very quickly push them away; and by letting go of those they love, they will be side by side forever.

谈谈“疑问代词+ever”的用法 whatever〔=any or every (thing) 任何或每一样(事物) 〕, whichever (=the person or thing that…的那个人或事物) , whoever (=anyone who) , whomever (=anyone whom…的那个人或任何人) 等可用于引导名词性从句。这类引导词均相当于“先行词+关系代词”,没有疑问语气,但没有ever的引导词which, who等却依含有疑问意味。如: The poor young man is ready to accept whatever (=any) help he can get. 那个年青人意愿接受能得到的任何帮助(http://tieba.baidu.com/mo/q/checkurl?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.yygrammar.com%2F&urlrefer=eaccff6bfddb2337547b8889680ee5b8)。 Whoever (=Anyone who) comes will be welcome. 任何人来都欢迎。 I’ll give it to whichever of you wants it. 你们之中谁想要,我就给谁。 Whatever(=Everything that) she did was right. 她做的一切都是对的。 Give it to whomever /whoever you like. 把它送给你愿送的任何人。 注:这类词也可引导状语从句,此时可用“no matter+疑问词”替换。如: Whoever (=No matter who) you are, you can’t pass this way. 不管你是谁,你都不能从这里通过。
whatever与no matter what 有这样一道题: It is generally considered unwise to give a child __________ her or she wants. A. whatever B. no matter what C. whenever D. no matter when 此题应选 A。容易误选B。选项C、D显然是错的,因为句中的 wants 缺宾语,而C、D两项不能作宾语。至于C、D 的区别,可这样描述:no matter what 只能引导状语从句,而不引导名词性从句。而 whatever 既可引导名词性从句(=anything that),也可引导状语从句(=no matter what): 1. 引导名词性从句(只用whatever): 无论他做什么都是对的。 正:Whatever he did was right. 误:No matter what he did was right. 无论他说什么似乎都有道理。 正:Whatever he says sounds reasonable. 误:No matter what he says sounds reasonable. 山羊找到什么就吃什么。 正:Goats eat whatever they find. 误:Goats eat no matter what they find. 2. 引导状语从句(两者可换用): 无论你说什么,我都不会相信你。 正:Whatever you say,I won’t believe you. 正:No matter what you say,I won’t believe you. 无论发生什么,都要保持镇定。 正:Keep calm,whatever happens. 正:Keep calm,no matter what happens.

The Earthly Treasure The Earthly Treasure In the deep winter ,natural flowers tend to shrivel ; while , the flowers of friendship and love stand to bloom fragrantly , as a consequence of watered love. Is It Worth It? Horror gripped the heart of the World War I soldier as he saw his lifelong friend fall in battle.Caught in a trench with continuous gunfire whizzing over his head,the soldier asked his lieutenant if he might go out into the "No Man's Land" between the trenches to bring his fallen comrade back. "You can go,"said the Lieutenant,"but I don't thind it will be worth it.Your friend is probably dead and you may throw your own life away."The Lieutenant's words didn't matter,and the soldier went anyway. Miraculously he managed to reach his friend,hoisted him onto his shoulder,and brought him back to their company's trench.As the two of them tumbled in together to the bottom of the trench,the officer checked the wounded soldier,then looked kindly at his friend."I told you it wouldn't be worth it,"he said."Your friend is dead,and you are mortally wounded." "It was worth it,though,sir,"the soldier said. "How do you mean,'worth it'?"responded the Lieutenant."Your friend is dead!" "Yes sir,"the private answered."But it was worth it because when I got to him,he was still alive,and I had the satisfaction of hearing him say,'Jim,I knew you'd come.'" Many a time in life,whether a thing is worth doing or not really depends on how you look at it. Take up all your courage and do something your heart tells you to do so that you may not regret not doing it later in life.

每天学个词——blue 今天学的词组是blue, b-l-u-e。Blue的意思是蓝色,也有忧郁和令人沮丧的意思。比如某个人心情不好,闷闷不乐 -- "Heis in a blue mood today." 或者说, "He looks so blue." 美国英语中有个词组,叫做 holidayblues。 指的是假日期间的郁闷情绪。节日的团聚欢乐气氛往往令一些孤独的人更感到寂寞,不开心。 有些心理学家忠告说,不要让这种低落的情绪恶化成忧郁症,"Don't let the holiday blues lead todepression." 还比如,布什总统在国会中期选举之后积极调整政策:"The president is trying to beatthe post midterm election blues," 总统设法克服选后令人沮丧的局面。今天学的词组是blue...

二. 主语从句 作句子主语的从句叫主语从句。主语从句通常由从属连词that,whether,if和连接代词what,who,which,whatever,whoever以及连接副词how,when,where,why等词引导。that在句中无词义,只起连接作用;连接代词和连接副词在句中既保留自己的疑问含义、又起连接作用,在从句中充当从句的成分。例如: What he wants to tell us is not clear. 他要跟我们说什么,还不清楚。 Who will win the match is still unknown. 谁能赢得这场比赛还不得而知。 It is known to us how he became a writer. 我们都知道他是如何成为一名作家的。 Where the English evening will be held has not yet been announced. 英语晚会将在哪里举行,还没有宣布。 有时为避免句子头重脚轻,常用形式主语it代替主语从句作形式主语放于句首,而把主语从句置于句末。主语从句后的谓语动词一般用单数形式。常用句型如下: (1) It + be + 名词 + that从句 (2)It + be + 形容词 + that从句 (3)It + be + 动词的过去分词 + that从句 (4)It + 不及物动词 + that 从句 另注意在主语从句中用来表示惊奇、不相信、惋惜、理应如此等语气时,谓语动词要用虚拟语气“(should) +do”,常用的句型有: It is necessary (important, natural, strange, etc.) that … It is suggested (requested, proposed, desired, etc.) that… [编辑本段]三、宾语从句 名词句用作宾语的从句叫宾语从句。引导宾语从句的关联词与引导主语从句表语从句的关联词大致一样,在句中可以作谓语动词或介词及非谓语动词的宾语。 1. 由连接词that引导的宾语从句 由连接词that引导宾语从句时,that在句中不担任任何成分,在口语或非正式的文体中常被省去,但如从句是并列句时,第二个分句前的that不可省。例如: He has told me that he will go to Shanghai tomorrow. 他已经告诉我他明天要去上海。 We must never think (that) we are good in everything while others are good in nothing. 我们决不能认为自己什么都好,别人什么都不好。 注意:在demand、order、suggest、decide、insist, desire, request, command, doubt等表示要求、命令、建议、决定等意义的动词后,宾语从句常用“(should)+ 动词原形”。例如: I insist that she (should) do her work alone. 我坚持要她自己工作。 The commander ordered that troops (should) set off at once. 司令员命令部队马上出发。 2. 用who,whom, which, whose, what, when, where, why, how, whoever, whatever, whichever等关联词引导的宾语从句相当于特殊疑问句,应注意句子语序要用陈述语序。例如: I want to know what he has told you. 我想知道他告诉了你什么。 She always thinks of how she can work well. 她总是在想怎样能把工作做好。 She will give whoever needs help a warm support. 凡需要帮助的人,她都会给予热情的支持。 3. 用whether或if引导的宾语从句,其主语和谓语的顺序也不能颠倒,仍保持陈述句语序。此外,whether与if 在作“是否”的意思讲时在下列情况下一般只能用whether,不用if: a. 引导主语从句并在句首时;b. 引导表语从句时;c . 引导从句作介词宾语时;d. 从句后有“or not”时;e. 后接动词不定式时。例如: Whether there is life on the moon is an interesting question. 月球上有没有生命是个有趣的问题。 The question is whether she should have a low opinion of the test?现在的问题是她是否应该有一个低意见的测试? Everything depends on whether we have enough money. 一切要看我们是否有足够的钱。 I wonder whether he will come or not. 我想知道他来还是不来。 Can you tell me whether to go or to stay? 你能否告诉我是去还是留? 4. 注意宾语从句中的时态呼应,当主句动词是现在时,从句根据自身的句子情况,而使用 不同时态。例如: he studies English every day. (从句用一般现在时) he studied English last term. (从句用一般过去时) I know (that) he will study English next year. (从句用一般将来时) he has studied English since 1998. (从句用现在完成时) 当主句动词是过去时态(could, would除外),从句则要用相应的过去时态,如一般过去时,过去进行时,过去将来时等;当从句表示的是客观真理,科学原理,自然现象,则从句仍用现在时态。例如: The teacher told us that Tom had left us for America. 5. think, believe, imagine, suppose等等动词引起的否定性宾语从句中,要把上述主句中的动词变为否定式。即将从句中的否定形式移到主句中。例如: We don’t think you are here. 我们认为你不在这。 I don’t believe he will do so. 我相信他不会这样做。
一、引导名词性从句的连接词 引导名词性从句的连接词可分为三类: 连词:that(无任何词意) whether,if(均表示“是否”表明从句内容的不确定性) as if ,as though(均表示“好像”,“似乎”) 以上在从句中均不充当任何成分 连接代词:what, whatever, who, whoever, whom, whose, whichever,whomever 连接副词:when, where, how, why,how many,how much,how often 不可省略的连词: 1. 介词后的连词 2. 引导主语从句和同位语从句的连词不可省略。 That she was chosen made us very happy. We heard the news that our team had won. 比较: whether与if 均为"是否"的意思。 但在下列情况下,只可用whether: 1. whether引导主语从句并在句首 2. 引导表语从句 3. whether从句作介词宾语 4. 从句后有"or not" Whether he will come is not clear. 大部分连接词引导的主语从句都可以置于句末,用 it充当形式主语。 It is not important who will go. It is still unknown which team will win the match.
有种旅行叫作人生 Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sorrow, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to handle various situations. Love Love plays a pivotal role on out life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could go hayward and also become cruel and ferocious. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who shower us with unconditional love and care, they teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others feelings. Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better. Happiness and Sorrow Materialistic happiness is short-lived, but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others face gives a certain level of fulfillment. Peace of mind is the main link to happiness. No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow. Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one, failure and despair. But these things are temporary and pass away. Failure and Success Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, fame, pride and self-respect. Here it becomes very important to keep our head on out shoulder. The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble, modest, courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones. Hope and Despair Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day. Nothing remains the same we have only one choice keep moving on in life and be hopeful. Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dull. So the only alternative is work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow. 人生好似一个包裹,这个包裹里藏着快乐与悲伤、成功与失败,希望与绝望。人生也是一个学习的过程。那些经历给我们上了全新的课,让我们变得更好。随着每一天的过去,我们学会了处理各种各样的问题。 爱 爱在生活之外扮演了一个关键的角色。爱使你想要得到些什么。没有爱,一个人将走向不归路,变得凶暴、残忍。在我们最初的人生道路上,我们的父母给予了我们无条件的关爱,他们教会我们判断正确与错误、好与坏。然而我们常常把这想当然了,只有等到我们结了婚并且有了孩子之后,一个人才会懂得并注意别人的感受。孩子让我们变得富有责任心、变得成熟稳重,并且更好的理解人生。 快乐与悲伤 物质上的快乐往往是短暂的,然而,当你给予他人一个微笑的时候,那种满足却是无与伦比的。心灵的平静往往是快乐的源泉。没有平和的心态就没有快乐的心情。在伤心的时候,我们往往能够体会到快乐的真谛。悲伤基本都来自于一个爱人的去世、失败还有绝望,但是这样的事情都是暂时的,总会过去的。 失败与成功 失败是成功之母。它让我们触及蓝天,它教会我们如何生存,它给予我们一条特殊的路。成功给予我们金钱、名誉、骄傲和自尊。这里,保持头脑清醒便显得尤为重要。唯一能让我们感激上帝给予的成功便是始终卑微、谦虚、礼貌并且尊重没有我们幸运的人们。 希望与绝望 希望是人生动力之源。父母总是希望自己的孩子能够做得很好。希望使我们有梦想。希望使我们变得有耐心。人生教会我们即使是在最困难的时候都不要绝望,因为黑暗之后终将是黎明。没有什么事一成不变的,我们惟有充满希望地继续生活。 人生教会我们不要对过去的事感到后悔,因为过去的终究是过去了并且我们已无法控制。没人知道明天会是怎样,因为它可以是光明的同样也可以是无趣的。所以,唯一的选择便是在今天努力工作,这样才能让我们去享受更美好的明天。

美文欣赏:每个女人都美丽 A little boy asked god,god,why do woman cry so easily? god said when I made woman ,she had to be special. I made her shoulder strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet, gentle enough to give comfort. I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when anyone else gives up and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining.I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any in all circumstances .Even when her child has hurt her very badly, I gave her strenghth to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from her rip to protect his heart. I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strength and her resolve to stand beside him unforcingly. And finally I gave her a tear to shade.This is hers, exclusively to use whenever it is needed. You see the beauty of woman is not in the clothes she wears,the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of the woman must be seen in her eyes. Because that is the doorway to her heart,the place where love resides. Every woman is beautiful. 一个男孩问他的妈妈:“ 你为什么要哭呢?” 妈妈说:“因为我是女人啊。” 男孩说: “我不懂。” 他妈妈抱起他说:“你永远不会懂得。” 后来小男孩就问他爸爸:“妈妈为什么毫无理由的哭呢?” “所有女人都这样。”他爸爸回答。 小男孩长成了一个男人,但仍就不懂女人为什么哭泣。 最后,他打电话给上帝;当上帝拿起电话时,他问道:“上帝,女人为什么那么容易哭泣呢?” 上帝回答说:“当我创造女人时,让她很特别。 我使她的肩膀能挑起整个世界的重担,同时又柔情似水。” “我让她的内心很坚强, 能够承受分娩的痛苦和忍受自己孩子多次的拒绝。” “我让她的内心很坚强, 能够承受分娩的痛苦和忍受自己孩子多次的拒绝。” “我赋予她耐心使她在别人放弃的时候继续坚持, 并且无怨无悔的照顾自己的家人度过疾病和疲劳。” “我赋予她在任何情况下都会爱孩子的感情,即使她的孩子伤害了她。” 我赋予她包容她丈夫过错的坚强和用他的勒骨塑成她来保护他的心。” “我赋予她智慧让她知道一个好丈夫是绝不会伤害他的妻子的, 但有时我也会考验她支持自己丈夫的决心和坚强。” “最后,我让她可以流泪.只要她愿意。这是她所独有的。” 你看,女人的漂亮不是因为她穿的衣服, 她保持的体型或者她梳头的方式。” “女人的漂亮必须从她的眼睛中去看, 因为那是她心灵的窗户和爱居住的地方。”
美文欣赏:每个女人都美丽 A little boy asked god,god,why do woman cry so easily? god said when I made woman ,she had to be special. I made her shoulder strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet, gentle enough to give comfort. I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when anyone else gives up and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining.I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any in all circumstances .Even when her child has hurt her very badly, I gave her strenghth to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from her rip to protect his heart. I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strength and her resolve to stand beside him unforcingly. And finally I gave her a tear to shade.This is hers, exclusively to use whenever it is needed. You see the beauty of woman is not in the clothes she wears,the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of the woman must be seen in her eyes.

后接定语是用to do sth还是用of doing sth 请看下面一题: I was excited at his idea _________ rid of the habit _________. A. to get, to smoke B. of getting, of smoking C. to get, of smoking D. of getting, to smoke 【分析】此题容易误选A,许多同学认为 one’s idea to do sth, the habit to do sth 等结构读起来很顺口的,感觉也是对的。其实正确答案应是B。英语中有些名词(如time 时间,wish 想法, courage 勇气,decision 决定,ambition 雄心,等)后习惯上接不定式作定语,有些名词(如 idea 想法,habit 习惯,hope 希望, danger 危险,possibility 可能性,等)后习惯上接“of+动名词”作定语,而有些名词(如 way 方法,chance 机会,opportunity 机会,等)则两类结构均可接。如: I have no wish to go. 我不想去。 I have no hope of going. 我没有去的希望。 This is the best way to do [of doing] it. 这是做此事最好的方法。
这个疑问句是用somebody还是anybody 这个疑问句是用somebody还是要用anybody? 请想好了! “Is there ______ here?” “No, Bob and Tim have asked for leave.” A. anybody B. everybody C. somebody D. nobody 【陷阱】此题容易误选 A。认为这是一般疑问句,要用 anybody。 【分析】其实此题应选B,主要与上下文的语境有关。全文语境为:“大家都到齐了吗?”“没有,Bob 和Tim 两人请假了。”假若我们将此题作如下变换,则情形就会有所不同: “Is there ______ here?” “Yes, I’m upstairs. Please come and help me.” A. anybody B. everybody C. somebody D. nobody 此题的最佳答案应是A,而不是B。 请再看一例(from http://tieba.baidu.com/mo/q/checkurl?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.yygrammar.com%2F&urlrefer=eaccff6bfddb2337547b8889680ee5b8): “Do you have _____ at home now, Mary?” “No, we still have to get some fruit and tea.” A. something B. anything C. everything D. nothing 答案选C,句意为“玛丽,现在家里东西都准备齐了吗?”“还没有,我们还要买些水果和茶。”
强调结构 常考的强调句结构是it 引导的句子。 It is (was) 被强调部分+ that (who) + 句子其他部分。 此结构强调的成分仅限于主语,宾语和状语。 It is from the sun that we get light and heat. It was not until I had read your letter that I understood the true state of affairs. 典型例题 1) It was last night ___ I see the comet. A. the time B. when C. that D. which 答案C. 强调句的结构是: It +be +强调部分 + that (who) + 主谓句。 强调句的连词只有两个,that和who。当强调的部分是人,且为句子的主语时,才用 "who",其余用that。 原句: My father did the experiment in the lab yesterday evening. 强调主语: It was my father who did the experiment in the lab yesterday evening. 强调宾语: It was the experiment that my father did in the lab yesterday evening. 强调时间: It was yesterday evening that my father did the experiment in the lab. (注意不用when) 强调地点: It was in the lab that my father did the experiment yesterday evening. 2)It is ten years ___ Miss Green returned to Canada. A. that B. when C. since D. as 答案C. 考点是连词用法。 本题易误选为A. that. 其实本句不是强调句。若是,去掉It be… that还应是一个完整的句子。而本句去掉 'It is…that',只剩下ten years Miss Green returned to Canada. 不成句。因此本句不是强调句。 It is /was +时间+ since… 其中is<---> has been was <---> had been.

陷阱-巴斯克维尔猎犬-英文名著缩写 15 陷阱 The Trap When we reached the Hall,Sir Henry was very pleased to see Holmes.But he was surprised that Holmes had no luggage and that he appeared so unexpectedly. I had the unhappy job of telling Barrymore and his wife about her brother's death.Mrs Barrymore cried and was very sad indeed. During dinner Sir Henry told us that he had spent a dull day and evening on his own.He had kept his promise to Holmes,and so he had not accepted the Stapletons' invitation to their house that evening.We did not tell him how glad we were that he had stayed away from the moor! Holmes started to say something,and then he stopped suddenly.His eyes were fixed on one of the pictures of the past Baskervilles on the wall. 'Sir Henry,could you tell me which Baskerville that is?'he asked.Sir Henry and I both looked at the picture. 'That is Sir Hugo,the one who started all the trouble,'said Sir Henry.'He was the first to see the Hound. Holmes looked hard at the picture,but said nothing more.Then after Sir Henry had gone to his room,Holmes made me stand in front of the picture.' Is it like anyone you know?'he asked.He stood on a chair,and with his hands he covered the hat and hair of the man in the picture. 'Good heavens!' I cried in surprise.I was looking at a picture of Stapleton' s face. 'Yes,'said Holmes before I could say anything more.'There's not much doubt about it.Stapleton is a Baskerville.He looks like Sir Hugo,and he has the same evil character.Now I understand why he wants to kill Sir Henry.I am sure we shall find that he will inherit the Baskerville lands.And so we have one more answer.By tomorrow night Stapleton will be canght like one of his butterflies,and we shall add him to the Baker Street collection.' We soon went to bed.I was up early in the morning,but Holmes was up earlier.He had already sent one message to the police about Selden,and another to his boy to stop him taking food to the hut. When Sir Henry joined us,Holmes told him that we had to leave for London immediately after breakfast.Sir Henry was very unhappy about this,but Holmes asked him to help us by doing everything Holmes ordered him to do.Sir Henry agreed to help in this way,and to go by himself to the Stapletons that evening.He also agreed to tell the Stapletons that Holmes and I had gone to London,but that we would return to Devonshire soon. 'One more order,'said Holmes.'I want you to drive to the Stapletons'house and then send the driver away.Let the Stapletons know that you' re going to walk home across the moor.' Across the moor?' said Sir Henry,very surprised.' But you have told me again and again not to do that.' 'This time it will be completely safe.I know that you are brave enough to do it,and it must be done.' 'Then I will do it.' 'But you must keep to the path between the Stapletons'house and the Grimpen road,which is your natural way home.Do not leave the path.' I was very surprised by all this.Holmes had told Stapleton that he would return to London,but he had not said that I was going too.And I was very worried that neither of us would be with Sir Henry when he walked across the moor that night.But we had to obey Holmes' orders.

英语语法——独立主格结构 (一):独立主格的概念 “独立主格结构”是由名词或代词作为逻辑主语,加上分词、形容词、副词、动词不定式或介词短语作为逻辑谓语构成。这种结构在形式上与主句没有关系,通常称为“独立主格结构”。 (二):独立主格的功能 “独立主格结构”实质就是带有自己主语的非限制性状语从句。众所周知非限制性从句通常以主句的某一成分作为自己的逻辑主语,从而依附于主句。而有些非限制性从句和无动词从句带有自己的主语,在结构上与主句不发生关系,因此成为独立主格结构。其实,虽然叫做独立主格结构,并不是真正的独立,它还是一种从属分句,在句中有多种作用。如:表原因、表条件、表方式、表伴随、表时间等,在句中通常起状语作用。 独立主格结构主要用于描绘性文字中,其作用相当于一个状语从句,常用来表示时间、原因、条件、行为方式或伴随情况等。例如: 1) 表示时间 The meeting being over, all of us went home. 开完会后我们都回家了。 Her work done, she sat down for a cup of tea. 她干完了活,坐下来喝茶。 2) 表示条件 The condition being favorable, he may succeed. 若条件有利,他或许能成功。 3) 表示原因 There being no taxis, we had to walk. 没有出租车,我们只好步行。 He wrapped her up with great care, the night being dark and frosty. 夜又黑又冷,所以他把她裹得严严实实的。 4) 表示伴随情况 Almost all metals are good conductors, silver being the best of all. 几乎所有的金属都是良导体,而银则是最好的导体。(=Almost all metals are good conductors,and silver is the best of all.) 5) 表示补充说明 We redoubled our efforts, each man working like two. 我们加倍努力,一个人干两个人的活。 *注:独立主格结构表示时间、条件或原因时,相当于一个状语从句,一般放在句首,表示原因时还可放在句末;表伴随状况或补充说明时,相当于一个并列句,通常放于句末。
The magic life of Nick Vujicic Ace Radio brings you the special edition on The Magic Life of Nick Vujicic.He was born without arms or legs and given no medical reason for this condition. Faced with countless challenges and obstacles, Nick has obtained the strength to surmount what others might call impossible.Nick shares with us the importance of vision and dreaming big. He shares his view of ceasing to see obstacles as problems, but instead begin to see them as opportunities to grow and reach out to others. Nick shows through his own life that the major keys in fulfilling our biggest dreams are persistence and choosing to embrace failure as a learning experience, rather than allowing the guilt and fear of failure to paralyze us.
快餐文化让我们性格焦躁 Fast food is not only bad for your body, but may also harm your bank account. Eating habits have shifted dramatically over the last few decades--fast food has become a multibillion dollar industry that has widespread influence on what and how we eat. The original idea behind fast food is to increase efficiency, allowing people to quickly finish a meal so they can move on to other matters. Researchers at the Rotman School of Management, however, have found that the mere(仅仅的) exposure to fast food and related symbols can make people impatient, increasing preference for time saving products, and reducing willingness to save. "Fast food represents a culture of time efficiency and instant gratification(满意,喜悦) ," says Chen-Bo Zhong, who co-wrote the paper with colleague Sanford DeVoe to be published in a forthcoming issue of Psychological Science. "The problem is that the goal of saving time gets activated upon exposure to fast food regardless of whether time is a relevant(有关的,中肯的) factor in the context. For example, walking faster is time efficient when one is trying to make a meeting, but it's a sign of impatience when one is going for a stroll(闲逛,漫步) in the park. We're finding that the mere exposure to fast food is promoting a general sense of haste and impatience regardless of the context." In one experiment, the researchers flashed fast food symbols, such as the golden arch of McDonald's, on a computer screen for a few milliseconds, so quick that participants couldn't consciously identify what they saw. They found that this unconscious exposure increased participants' reading speed in a subsequent(后来的,随后的) task compared to those in a control condition, even when there was no advantage to finishing sooner. In another study, participants who recalled a time when they eat at a food restaurant subsequently preferred time-saving products—such as two-in-one shampoo—over regular products. A final experiment found people exposed to fast food logos exhibited greater reluctance(勉强,不情愿) for saving —choose a smaller immediate payment rather than opting for(选择) a much larger delayed payment. "Fast food is one of many technologies that allow us to save time," says Sanford DeVoe, "But the ironic thing is that by constantly reminding us of time efficiency, these technologies can lead us to feel much more impatience. A fast food culture that extols(颂扬,赞美) saving time doesn't just change the way we eat but it can also fundamentally alter the way they experience our time. For example, leisure(空闲的,业余的) activities that are supposed to be relaxing can come to be experienced through the color glasses of impatience." The researchers point out that it's impossible to know whether fast food in part caused the value for time efficiency(时间效率) in our culture or is merely a consequence of it—but it's clear from their findings that exposure to fast food reinforces(加强,补充) an emphasis on impatience and instant gratification(满意,喜悦) . "Given the role that financial impatience played in the current economic crisis," says Chen-Bo Zhong, "we need to move beyond counting calories when we examine the consequences of fast food as it is also influencing our everyday psychology and behavior in a wider set of domains than has been previously thought."
像美国人一样说英语 Ted: Amber and I are going to break into the music business. Last night after our concert, a talent agent asked us to meet with him in New York. Susan: congratulations! We'll give you some spending money for your trip. Ted: no need. The agent is footing the bill for everything. And when we get there, he's going to wine and dine us. Susan: he must think you're the cream of the crop. Ted: he thinks we sound like Goo Goo Dolls. Nicole: who are they? Ted: you are really out of it. They're a popular rock band. Nicole: our family is certainly on a winning streak. I was elected president of the Spanish Club today. Ted: the Spanish Club? Big deal! Nicole: you don't get it, Ted. This is only the beginning. Today, president of the Spanish Club. Tomorrow, ambassador to Spain! Ted: well, Ambassador, you'll need to wrap up my chemistry homework before you leave for the Spanish Embassy.

Daily Life Looking for an Apartment A: Hi! We are the Christianson’s! We are here to see the apartment. B: Oh, hi! Sure, come on in! Well, as you can see,the place has just been renovated. The previous tenants left a huge mess here, so the landlord has redone everything. A: It looks great. It’s so bright and airy! What great light! I really like these hardwood floors. What’s the square footage of this place? B: Well, it’s about 120 square meters, or 1300 square feet, more or less. Oh, the landlord has also installed new kitchen appliances. There’s a new dishwasher, and a professional-grade gas range. Really, at this price, this place is an amazing deal! A: I love it! But what are the payment terms? B: First and last month rent as deposit and rent is due on the 1st of every month. Considering the amount of money invested into the apartment, it’s a very good deal! A: Yes, it is! Too good to be true... B: The living room and dinning room are quite spacious as you can see, and down this hall, here’s the master bedroom. It has a huge walk-in closet and an en suit bathroom. We can’t go in there yet as the police... I mean the clean up crew hasn’t finished. A: What do you mean? What’s in here?
积极看待每一天~~ If your life feels like it is lacking the power that you want and the motivation that you need, sometimes all you have to do is shift your point of view. 如果你觉得心有余力不足,觉得缺乏前进的动力,有时候你只需要改变思维的角度。 By training your thoughts to concentrate on the bright side of things, you are more likely to have the incentive to follow through on your goals. You are less likely to be held back by negative ideas that might limit your performance. 试着训练自己的思想朝好的一面看,这样你就会汲取实现目标的动力,而不会因为消极沉沦停滞不前。 Your life can be enhanced, and your happiness enriched, when you choose to change your perspective. Don't leave your future to chance, or wait for things to get better mysteriously on their own. You must go in the direction of your hopes and aspirations. Begin to build your confidence, and work through problems rather than avoid them. Remember that power is not necessarily control over situations, but the ability to deal with whatever comes your way. 一旦变换看问题的角度,你的生活会豁然开朗,幸福快乐会接踵而来。别交出掌握命运的主动权,也别指望局面会不可思议的好转。你必须与内心希望与热情步调一致。建立自信,敢于与困难短兵相接,而非绕道而行。记住,力量不是驾驭局势的法宝,无坚不摧的能力才是最重要的。 Always believe that good things are possible, and remember that mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries. Take your fear and transform it into trust; learn to rise above anxiety and doubt. Turn your "worry hours" into "productive hours". Take the energy that you have wasted and direct it toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in. You will see beautiful things happen when you allow yourself to experience the joys of life. You will find happiness when you addopt positive thinking into your daily routine and make it an important part of your world. 请坚信,美好的降临并非不可能,失误也许是成功的前奏。将惶恐化作信任,学会超越担忧和疑虑。让“诚惶诚恐”的时光变得“富有成效”。不要挥霍浪费精力,将它投到有意义的事情中去。当你下意识品尝生命的欢愉时,美好就会出现。当你积极地看待生活,并以此作为你的日常准则时,你就会找到快乐的真谛。

英文谚语的汉语翻译 爱思英语编者按:有两则关于同一条英语谚语Blood is thicker than water的译例。其一是“清水不浓血却浓”,其二是“血浓于水”。从字面上看,上述两则译例译得固然不错,似无可厚非。译文读起来很顺,又比较易懂,但读后似有不知所云之感。 这是因为译文的形象没能准确地传达出这条谚语的喻义来。 Longman Dictionary of English Idioms(p.28)上对这条谚语的解释是“The relationship between people of the same family is stronger than other,relationships”因此,这则谚语似可以借用汉语中一句俗语“亲不亲一家人”来译更能表达出“属于同一血缘关系的一家人比别人更亲近一些”的寓意。 语言是文化的表现形式。谚语同文学作品、诗歌一样是语言的精华。英语谚语是富于色彩的语言形式,一般具有生动形象、喻义明显、富于哲理的语言特征。在一定程度上,英语谚语反映了英语民族的文化特点。因此,翻译英语谚语时,仅仅以语言之间词汇的同义性(等价性)为前提,寻求对等的表现是不够的。译者须较多运用汉语的表现手段,力求能再现英语谚语的语言风格和丰富内涵。只有多注意英语谚语字面以外所特有的语言内涵色彩,才能使译文讽喻得当,宜于说理,又不失原来谚语所具有的语言形象。 某些英语谚语和汉语成语、俗语在表现形式和含义方面是一致的或基本一致的。汉译这些英语时,可惜用与其喻义相同或相近的成语或谚语及俗语直接对译。这样不但可以比较好地保持原文的神韵和形式,又使译文易于为读者或听者接受。如: Pride comes before a fall.骄兵必败。更多信息请访问:http://tieba.baidu.com/mo/q/checkurl?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.24en.com%2F&urlrefer=b72e80e87f0b6ba205f5ed3330e8aa74 Amiss is as good as a mile.差之毫厘,失之千里。 Two is company,but three is none.两个和尚抬水吃,三个和尚无水吃。 Walls have ear.隔墙有耳。 Enough is as good as a feast.知足常乐。 有些英语谚语虽然在语言习惯和文化背景方面和其相对的汉语谚语之间存在着某些差异,而且所比喻的事物并不一样,但他们的喻义却相互吻合,而且表达方式也很相似,汉译这些英语谚语时,常常需要“易其形式,存其精神”,即采用形象近似的汉语成语意译。这样可使译文既喻义明显,又含而不露,且可再现原文所具有的语言效果,容易达意。如: Two can play the game.孤掌难鸣。 Newbroom sweeps clean.新官上任三把火。 Speak of the devil,and he appears.说曹操,曹操到。 The grass is greener on the other side of the hill.这山望着那山高。 Putting the cart before the horse.本末倒置。 有些英语谚语意在言外,语言含蓄,寓意深刻。如果仅从字面意义直译成汉语,而不领会原文的具体含义及其效果,译文势必平淡无味。这样既不能表达意思,又有损于原文的语言形象和丰富内涵。因此,在翻译时,应在汉语中寻找那些与原文喻义相同或效果相似的成语、谚语或俗语来表达,则会使译文形象生动,准确达意。试比较下列各译例。 People who live in glass houses should not throw stones.如译成“住在玻璃房子里的人,不应扔石头”不如译成“己有过,勿正人”或“责人必先责己”。 In fair weather prepare for the foul.如译成“晴天要防阴天”,不如译成“有备无患”或“居安思危”或“未雨绸缪”。 Murder will out.如译成“谋杀终必败露”,不如译成“纸包不住火”。 Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.如译成“愚者敢闯天使不敢去的地方”,不如译成“初生牛犊不怕虎”。 One cannot make an omelette without breaking eggs.如译成“想吃煎蛋卷,就得打鸡蛋”,不如译成工“有得必有失”或甚至可以引申为“不破不立”。 如果所要翻译的谚语喻义清新,形象逼真,按其字面直译其意,就能表达出原文的喻义来,则可直译。这样做既能较完整地保存原文的表达方式,且又可丰富我们自己的语言文化,一举两得,请看下面的译例。 God helps those who help themselves.上帝帮助那些自己帮助自己的人。或“自助者天助之”。 Money is the root of all evil.金钱是万恶之源。 An empty sack cannot stand upright.空袋立不直。 Do as you would be done by. 以你所期望的别人待你的方式待人。 这与另一谚语: Don’t do unto others what you don’t want others do unto you.“己所不欲勿施于人”很相似。 Money talks.钱能通神。 有些英语谚语常常采用对称的修辞手段。使用这一修辞手段的目的在于加强语势,宜于说理,读后有心悦诚眼之感。汉译这些谚语时,应适当注意保持其修辞色彩,以便体现原文的表达方式。如: You may take a horse to the water, but you can’t make it drink. 如果按字面译成,“你可以把马牵到河边去,但不能叫它饮水”至少是没有充分体现这句谚语本身所具有的强烈对比色彩。从语法分析的观点看,在这个句子里,情态动词may和can虽然都表示“可能”的,但在含义上有所不同。这里may表示“事实上的可能性”,而can则表示“逻辑上的可能性”。并列连词but使前后两个分句意义相反,对比色彩强烈。在这种情况下,译文也必须力求对偶整齐,前后呼应,形成对照。如将此句译作“牵马河边易,逼它饮水难”或“老牛不喝水,不能强按头”会更好些。 总之,即使像谚语这样孤立的语句,翻译时也需尽一番揣摩切磋之功,否则译文就可能与原文“貌合神离”,文不达意。译事艰辛也许正在于此。
有种旅行叫作人生 Life comes in a package 有种旅行叫作人生 Life comes in a package Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sorrow, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to handle various situations. 人生好似一个包裹,这个包裹里藏着快乐与悲伤、成功与失败,希望与绝望。人生也是一个学习的过程。那些经历给我们上了全新的课,让我们变得更好。随着每一天的过去,我们学会了处理各种各样的问题。 爱 Love Love plays a pivotal role on out life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could go hayward and also become cruel and ferocious. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who shower us with unconditional love and care, they teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others feelings. Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better. 爱在生活之外扮演了一个关键的角色。爱使你想要得到些什么。没有爱,一个人将走向不归路,变得凶暴、残忍。在我们最初的人生道路上,我们的父母给予了我们无条件的关爱,他们教会我们判断正确与错误、好与坏。然而我们常常把这想当然了,只有等到我们结了婚并且有了孩子之后,一个人才会懂得并注意别人的感受。孩子让我们变得富有责任心、变得成熟稳重,并且更好的理解人生。 快乐与悲伤 Happiness and Sorrow Materialistic happiness is short-lived, but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others face gives a certain level of fulfillment. Peace of mind is the main link to happiness. No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow. Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one, failure and despair. But these things are temporary and pass away. 物质上的快乐往往是短暂的,然而,当你给予他人一个微笑的时候,那种满足却是无与伦比的。心灵的平静往往是快乐的源泉。没有平和的心态就没有快乐的心情。在伤心的时候,我们往往能够体会到快乐的真谛。悲伤基本都来自于一个爱人的去世、失败还有绝望,但是这样的事情都是暂时的,总会过去的。 失败与成功 Failure and Success Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, fame, pride and self-respect. Here it becomes very important to keep our head on out shoulder. The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble, modest, courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones. 失败是成功之母。它让我们触及蓝天,它教会我们如何生存,它给予我们一条特殊的路。成功给予我们金钱、名誉、骄傲和自尊。这里,保持头脑清醒便显得尤为重要。唯一能让我们感激上帝给予的成功便是始终卑微、谦虚、礼貌并且尊重没有我们幸运的人们。 希望与绝望 Hope and Despair Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day. Nothing remains the same we have only one choice keep moving on in life and be hopeful. 希望是人生动力之源。父母总是希望自己的孩子能够做得很好。希望使我们有梦想。希望使我们变得有耐心。人生教会我们即使是在最困难的时候都不要绝望,因为黑暗之后终将是黎明。没有什么事一成不变的,我们惟有充满希望地继续生活。 Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dull. So the only alternative is work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow. 人生教会我们不要对过去的事感到后悔,因为过去的终究是过去了并且我们已无法控制。没人知道明天会是怎样,因为它可以是光明的同样也可以是无趣的。所以,唯一的选择便是在今天努力工作,这样才能让我们去享受更美好的明天
幸福从内心而生(美文) We always seem to want those things we don't have. Moreover, we are often convinced that if we had those things we want so badly, we would finally be happy. 我们经常会去渴望一些我们并不真正需要的东西。此外,我们经常会让自己相信,如果我们拥有了这些我们梦寐以求的东西,我们就可以终于快乐起来。 The truth is that happiness is an attitude. It's not something created by outside circumstances, but instead is completely within your control. Nothing will give you a deep sense of satisfaction and happiness, unless you cultivate happiness consciously. Below are some simple yet specific steps you can take to cultivate happiness. 没有任何事物会给你带来深层次的满足和快乐,除非你有意识地去滋养幸福。以下是一些简单而具体的方法,你可以试试去滋养你的幸福。 Be grateful Create a sense of gratitude for what you have, for what is working, for what is wonderful and sweet in your life. A morning or evening gratitude list, written each day, can do wonders for helping you feel grateful. 学会感恩 培养一颗感恩的心,感恩于你所拥有的,生活中平凡的,美妙的及甜蜜的点点滴滴。每天早上或晚上列一份感恩单会帮助你学会去感激。 Take care of yourself Identify the small things in life that make you feel good, and do one daily. A short walk, a few minutes of writing in your journal, a short meditation, watching the sunset…whatever, will improve your outlook on life. 照顾好自己 发现生活中能让你感觉美好的一些小事,并每天去做一件这样的小事。一小段林间散步,写几分种日记,一小段沉思,看看日落……或者其它,都会增强你对美好生活的信心 Read inspirational material It helps to be reminded of positive thoughts and positive attitudes. Get a small book of positive, inspirational thoughts and keep it by your desk. Read one or two thoughts each day. 朗读激励志文 朗读激励志文会帮助你建立积极的思想和人生观。桌上摆放着一本激励志文小册子,每天都去朗读一两段。 Is the glass half empty or full? Life works better when the glass is half full regardle ss of your life status. 你的杯子有一半是空的呢,还是满的?不管你的生活状况如何,生活可以更美好,即使你的杯子只装满了一半。 No matter how many wonderful things you do to create a positive, happy, satisfied life, you could still end up unhappy. Ultimately, happiness, gratitude, a feeling of satisfaction is a choice. So, from now on, choose to be happy!
The celebrity effect 名人效应 IN MARCH 1998 the Coca-Cola Bottling Company announced the appointment of a most unlikely new director to its board: Evander Holyfield, a former heavyweight boxing champion (pictured above), best-known for having part of his ear bitten off in a bout by a fellow boxer, Mike Tyson. He was not the only top athlete at the time with a seat in the boardroom: Michael Jordan, a celebrated basketball player, was a director of Oakley, a sunglasses manufacturer. Other sports stars to try their hand at directing corporate America in the past 25 years include Billie Jean King, a tennis player appointed to the board of Altria (then called Philip Morris) in 1999 and Nancy Lopez, a golfer, who became a director of J.M. Smucker, a jam-maker, in 2006. 1998年3月,可口可乐装瓶公司宣布任命一位跌破众人眼镜的董事人选加入董事会∶这位就是前重量级拳王Evander Holyfield(如上图),他因耳朵的一小块曾遭另一位拳王Mike Tyson咬下来而声名大噪。当时他不是唯一一位在董事会享有席次的顶尖运动员:美国职篮球星Michael Jordan曾担任太阳眼镜制造商Oakley公司的董事。过去廿五年,其他运动明星亦尝试担任美国企业的董事,包括网球选手Billie Jean King,1999年加入Altria董事会(后更名Philip Morris),女子高尔夫球选手Nancy Lopez,2006年成为果酱制造商J.M. Smucker的董事之一。 Boards have also recruited from the ranks of Hollywood. Disney appointed Poitier to its board in 1994, for example. Deepak Chopra, an author and lifestyle guru, was recruited to the board of Men’s Wearhouse, a suit retailer, in 2004. Stretching the definition of celebrity a bit, General “Stormin’” Norman Schwarzkopf was appointed a director by the Home Shopping Network in 1996. And you can take your pick from scores of politicians-turned-directors, including Al Gore, a former vice-president and a member of Apple’s board since 2003. 好莱坞电影明星亦纷纷受邀参加董事会。例如,迪斯尼集团1994年邀请老牌演员Sidney Poitier加入董事会。畅销书作家和生活导师Deepak Chopra,在2004年受邀加入西服零售商Men’s Wearhouse的董事会。将名人的定义稍微延伸一点,波斯湾战争「沙漠风暴」多国部队统帅Norman Schwarzkopf将军,1996年受邀加入Home Shopping Network(家庭购物网)的董事会。并且,你还可以举出更多政治人物转型为公司董事的例子,包括前副总统Al Gore,2003年起加入Apple计算机公司董事会。 Gerald Ford was a particularly enthusiastic collector of boardroom seats after he left the White House. While on the board of American Express he stunned his fellow directors by asking Harvey Golub, the chief executive at the time, to explain the difference between “equity” and “revenue”, according to Vicky Ward’s new book on Lehman Brothers, “The Devil’s Casino”. This was perhaps not so surprising for a man Lyndon Johnson once said had “played too much football with his helmet off”. But it prompts a broader thought about why companies recruit celebrity directors. 美国前总统Gerald Ford(福特)在离开白宫之后,一直是各大企业董事会的热门人选。根据Vicky Ward关于雷曼兄弟公司的新书The Devil’s Casino(暂译《魔鬼的赌场》)透露,Gerald Ford在任职American Express(美国运通银行)董事会期间,曾经当面请益当时执行长Harvey Golub解释一下「平衡」和「获利」之间的差异,而令在场其他董事傻眼。或许这还不算离谱,前总统Lyndon Johnson(约翰逊)甚至曾说「他曾经不戴头盔踢过很多场美式足球比赛」。但是,公司企业为什么要网罗名人加入董事会,引发外界更广泛的思考。

means用法易错点 有这样一道题,请看看: Every possible means ________ been tried,and we find only ________ this means can we do it well. A. have,in B. have,by C. has,in D. has,by 此题应选 D。其余几项均容易被误选。这里主要涉及名词means(方式,方法,手段)的用法与搭配: 1. 单复数同形(永远有词尾-s)。若用作主语,其谓语的数需根据句意来确定。比较: All possible means have been tried. 所有可能的办法都已经试过了。 Every possible means has been tried. 每种可能的办法都已经试过了。 若句意不能明确地表明主语的单复数,其谓语则用单数或复数均可: Is [Are] there any other means of doing it? 做这事还有其他的什么办法吗? 2. 表示以某种方式、方法或手段,用介词by: Only by this means can you do it well. 只有通过这种办法你才能做好此事。 有时用 by means of,意为:用……,依靠……: Thoughts are expressed by means of words. 思想靠语言来表达。 3. 表示做某事的方法或手段,多接“of+(动)名词”: But they had no means of cooking them. 但是他们没有办法来把它们煮熟。 Taking a plane is the quickest means of getting there. 去那儿最快的办法是坐飞机。
能说I’m good friends with him吗 英语可说I’m good friends with him吗? 请做做这道题: — Jim, are you ________ of his? — Yes, I’m ________ with him. A. a good friend, a good friend B. good friends, good friends C. a good friend, good friends D. good friends, a good friend 此题应选C。容易误选A。 第一句应填a good friend,这对于一般考生来说可能不成问题,因为大家比较熟悉这样的句型: I’m a good friend of hers. 我是她的一位好朋友。 He’s a good friend of mine. 他是我的一位好朋友。 第二句应填good friends,这则是许多考生不理解的地方,因为此句主语明显是单数,而后面的表语又怎么能用复数呢? 按照英美人的看法:两个人交朋友,关系是彼此的,即你是我的朋友,那我就是你的朋友,所以他们在这类表达中用复数名词。又如: He has made friends with her. 他已与她交上朋友。 Do you want to make friends with him? 你想跟他交朋友吗? 类似地,以下各表达中,也要用复数: He stood up and shook hands with us. 他站起来与我们握手。 You have to change trains at Wuhan. 你必须在武汉转车。 The teacher didn’t let the two boys change seats. 老师没有让这两个小男孩换座位。
