Turn A New Life
翻开人生新的一页
●Turn这个词代表着灵活,因为其基本含义为“旋转,翻转,转弯”。我们也应该经常转动视角,看待人生,这样才不会钻牛角尖。当然物极必反,如果做事太灵活的话,你会给别人留下油滑的印象,而且做事不大能够坚持到底。
●白天有了烦心事,自然难以入睡,到了晚上便辗转反侧“tossing and turning”,真的走投无路了吗?“You don’t know which way to turn?”一个人很容易越想越绝望。此时的解决之道当然是找好友诉诉苦“turn to a close friend”。真正的朋友不会对你撒手不管“turn his back on you”。只要自己不绝望,凡事都有转机“Your luck has turned.”或“turn the corner”。尽管秋天已经来临,树叶变黄“turn brown”,马上会是萧瑟衰败的景象,但有了朋友的鼓励与帮助,就能够乌云散去,阳光重现。你知道,经过努力,你把一件坏事情变成了人生最好的激励“turn an accident into an inspiring event”。
●上面讲的事情过于沉重,换点儿轻松的话题。其实“turn”这个词你每天都要体验,而且是用你的手指去“触摸”它。你要使用手机吧?开机关机就用“turn on/turn off”。你没有手机?那总要看电视吧?也不看。那开灯关灯,打开水龙头,关掉水龙头总要做的吧?这些行为都要用到这个词。对它感兴趣了吗?那么,请你翻开下一页“turn to the next page”,详细了解用法吧。
