A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS

不断地

Constantly

I remarked constantly, just at sunset, in these latitudes, that the eastern horizon was brilliantly illuminated with a kind of mock sunset. This in a short time disappeared, to be soon succeeded by another similar in character, but more faint.

就在日落的时候,在这样的纬度上,我不断地说,东方的地平线被一种模拟的日落灿烂地照亮了。这一点在很短的时间内就消失了,接着是另一个相似的性格,但更微弱。

I had a mother I could only seem to please with verbal accomplishments of some sort or another. She read constantly, so I read constantly. If I used words that might have seemed surprising at a young age, she would recognize that and it would please her.

我有一个母亲,我似乎只能用某种或另一种语言上的成就来取悦她。她经常读书,所以我也经常读书。如果我在她年轻的时候使用一些可能会让她感到惊讶的话,她会认识到这一点,并且会感到高兴。

You know how fighting fish do it? They blow bubbles and in each one of those bubbles is an egg and they float the egg up to the surface. They keep this whole heavy nest of eggs floating, and they're constantly repairing it. It's as if they live in both elements.

你知道斗鱼是怎么做到的吗?它们吹泡泡,每个泡泡里都有一个鸡蛋,它们把鸡蛋浮到水面。它们让这个沉重的蛋巢漂浮着,并不断地修复它。就好像它们同时存在于这两种元素中。

I was a middle child. I grew up in Brooklyn with three sisters and a brother. You know what that means: everybody is constantly fighting with everybody and you are in the middle of the storm trying to make peace. That is your life. Making everybody work and play well together.

我是家中排行老二。我在布鲁克林长大,有三个姐妹和一个哥哥。这句话的意思是:每个人都在不停地和别人打架,而你却置身于风暴之中,试图和别人讲和。这就是你的生活。让大家一起工作,一起玩。

关于学习、善意与成长,读一句,再想一想。

Christmas was close at hand, in all his bluff and hearty honesty; it was the season of hospitality, merriment, and open heartedness; the old year was preparing, like an ancient philosopher, to call his friends around him, and amidst the sound of feasting and revelry to pass gently and calmly away.

圣诞节就在眼前,在他所有的坦率和由衷的诚实;这是一个好客、欢乐和心胸开阔的季节。旧年正像一位古代哲学家那样,准备把他的朋友们召集到身边,在宴会和狂欢的喧闹声中轻轻地、平静地过去。
