A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
花
Spend
I had the best of both worlds when I was a kid. I'd spend a quiet week with my mum, then I'd go to my dad's property in the Adelaide Hills, where there were all these kids and animals running around.
当我还是个孩子的时候,我拥有两个世界中最好的。我要和妈妈安静地呆上一周,然后我要去爸爸在阿德莱德山的家,那里到处都是孩子和动物。
In the meantime, we see there are charities that spend much of their scarce resources that should be going directly to the children to overcome this gulf that separates them from both the donors and the needy.
与此同时,我们看到有一些慈善机构将其大部分稀缺资源直接用于儿童,以克服他们与捐赠者和穷人之间的鸿沟。
The rules are changed now, there's not any way to build a team today. It's just how much money you want to spend. You could be the world champions and somebody else makes a key acquisition or two and you're through.
现在规则变了,现在没有办法组建一支球队。这只是你想花多少钱。你可以成为世界冠军,而其他人做出一两个关键的收购,你就完成了。
There are times everyone needs to be together for me and we all just work together; making sure that my energy is good and right when I go do what I'm going to do. That means the family needs to spend time together.
有时候,为了我,每个人都需要在一起,我们只是一起工作;确保我在做我要做的事情时精力充沛。这意味着这个家庭需要花时间在一起。
I don't think so, in that Virgin is already a global brand. Brands like Amazon have had to spend hundreds of millions of pounds you know, building their brands, whereas Virgin is already well-known around the world.
我不这么认为,因为维珍已经是一个全球品牌。像亚马逊这样的品牌不得不花费数亿英镑来打造自己的品牌,而维珍已经在全球闻名。
I don't do impersonations. I can do a wounded elephant! I can do a really good cow! And because of the amount of time I spent in North Yorkshire, I do a variety of sheep. All of which I will be happy to roll out for you!
我不模仿。我能做一头受伤的大象!我可以做一头很好的牛!由于我在北约克郡待了很长时间,我养了各种各样的羊。所有这些我都很乐意为你铺开!
I find it an absolute pleasure to read travel guides, especially the Michelin guides, and their description of places I know I'll probably never visit. I spend a large part of my life reading descriptions of restaurants.
我发现阅读旅游指南绝对是一种乐趣,尤其是米其林指南,以及它们对我可能永远不会去的地方的描述。我一生的大部分时间都花在阅读对餐馆的描述上。
Look at growth, look at how much time people spend on the Net and look at the variety of things that they are doing. It's all really good, so I am actually encouraged by the fundamentals that underlie usage growth on the Net.
看看增长,看看人们花在网络上的时间,看看他们正在做的各种各样的事情。这一切都非常好,所以我实际上受到了互联网使用量增长的基本原理的鼓舞。
Thank God my hair is always the same. And I get dressed very quickly. I am not one of those people who spend three hours getting dressed. I never understood that. What do you do for the two and a half hours after the half hour it takes you to get ready?
感谢上帝,我的头发总是一样的。我很快就穿好衣服。我不是那种花三个小时打扮的人。我一直不明白。在你花了半个小时准备之后的两个半小时里你做了什么?
Programmers and marketing people know how to get into your subconscious - they spend millions of dollars researching colors, shapes, designs, symbols, that affect your preferences, and they can make you feel warm, trusting, like buying. They can manipulate you.
程序员和营销人员知道如何进入你的潜意识——他们花费数百万美元研究影响你偏好的颜色、形状、设计、符号,他们能让你感到温暖、信任,就像买东西一样。他们可以操纵你。
I love my friends and family, but I also love it when they can't find me and I can spend all day reading or walking all alone, in silence, eight thousand miles away from everyone. All alone and unreachable in a foreign country is one my most favorite possible things to be.
我爱我的朋友和家人,但我也爱他们找不到我,我可以花一整天的时间阅读或独自行走,在沉默中,远离所有人的八千英里。独自一人在异国他乡遥不可及是我最喜欢的事情之一。
Having a child makes you strong and gives you chutzpah. It relaxed my attitude to the job; my center of focus shifted, which I think is very helpful, because even if you're not a very indulgent actor you spend a lot of time thinking about yourself. I don't think that is particularly healthy.
有了孩子,你会变得强壮,也会变得胆大妄为。它放松了我对工作的态度;我的注意力转移了,我认为这很有帮助,因为即使你不是一个很放纵的演员,你也会花很多时间考虑自己。我不认为这是特别健康的。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
The fly-by-nights don't want to spend any time with you.
那些不可靠的人不想和你在一起。
I don't waste as much time at work because I'd rather spend it with my kids.
我不会在工作上浪费那么多时间,因为我宁愿和我的孩子们一起度过。
For a nation which has an almost evil reputation for bustle, bustle, bustle, and rush, rush, rush, we spend an enormous amount of time standing around in line in front of windows, just waiting.
对于一个以熙熙攘攘而臭名昭著的国家,我们花了大量的时间在窗前排队,只是等待。
If I have to spend a lot of time on planes, I try to think of this as time off. In certain ways, it's more restful than home: no Internet, no phones, no interruptions.
如果我不得不花很多时间在飞机上,我会试着把这当成休息时间。在某些方面,它比家里更宁静:没有互联网,没有电话,没有干扰。
If you factor in not just who's doing what at home, but how much more time working fathers are spending on work outside the home, on average they spend two hours more per day outside the home.
如果你不仅考虑到谁在家做什么,还考虑到在职父亲在户外工作的时间增加了多少,他们平均每天在户外工作的时间增加了两个小时。
I don't spend time wondering what might be next; I just focus on trying to savor every day.
我不会花时间去想接下来会发生什么;我只是专注于享受每一天。
