A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
漂亮
Pretty
Overall I'm very pleased with my round. I was wedging it in there pretty good today. I drove it better today than I have in a long time. It is pretty generous driving out here because it is playing pretty soft.
总的来说,我对这轮比赛非常满意。我今天把它塞进去了。我今天开得比以前好多了。在这里开车是很慷慨的,因为它玩得很温柔。
People always ask me how I can hit the ball so far, and I say, 'I just swing.' It's the coaches who first told me I had good bat speed. I was just swinging, and I guess it was fast. I'm pretty fast at everything.
人们总是问我怎么才能把球打这么远,我说,‘我只是挥杆。“是教练们首先告诉我,我的击球速度很好。我只是在摇摆,我猜它很快。我什么都做得很快。
To chase an athlete that really doesn't want to speak with you and when you finally get him, gives you three words and you have to write a story based on three words of information he gave you, that's pretty tough.
要追一个不想和你说话的运动员,当你终于追上他,给你三个字,你必须根据他给你的三个字的信息写一个故事,这是相当困难的。
He was a horse of goodly countenance, rather expressive of vigilance than fire; though an unnatural appearance of fierceness was thrown into it by the loss of his ears, which had been cropped pretty close to his head.
他是一匹面容姣好的马,与其说是火,不如说是警;虽然由于他的耳朵被割得离他的头很近,失去了耳朵,使他显得异常凶猛。
I think there ought to be a club in which preachers and journalists could come together and have the sentimentalism of the one matched with the cynicism of the other. That ought to bring them pretty close to the truth.
我认为应该有这样一个俱乐部,牧师和记者可以聚在一起,一个人的多愁善感与另一个人的愤世嫉俗相匹配。这应该能让他们更接近事实。
And so, little by little, I gradually divested myself of pretty nearly all of the guest conducting I used to do, because I was at the same time working in the places like the Met, where I could work in this sort of depth.
所以,一点一点地,我逐渐摆脱了几乎所有我曾经做过的客座指挥,因为我同时也在大都会这样的地方工作,在那里我可以有这样的深度。
I've always felt so different from how I look. I meet so many pretty girls who are like, 'Here I am! Don't you want me because I look good?' That concept is so weird to me. I want to know, 'What else do you have going on?'
我总是觉得自己和外表很不一样。我遇到过很多漂亮的女孩,她们说,‘我来了!你不要我是因为我好看吗?这个概念对我来说太奇怪了。我想知道,‘你还在做什么?’
A non-fiction writer pretty much has the shape of the figure in front of him or her and goes about refining it. A work of non-fiction is not as difficult to write as a work of fiction, but it's not as satisfying in the end.
一个非小说作家在他或她面前有一个人物的形状,并不断完善它。一部非小说作品并不像小说作品那么难写,但它最终并没有那么令人满意。
He doesn't do a lot of looking off. Once he looks at a certain direction, you can pretty much guess he's going to throw that way. He looked to the left and didn't see nothing. Once he did that, I knew he was in scrambling mode.
他不怎么往远处看。一旦他看到某个方向,你几乎可以猜到他会朝那个方向扔。他看了看左边,什么也没看见。一旦他这么做了,我就知道他处于混乱状态。
I remember very clearly at the first budget review having a pretty direct conversation with the head of manufacturing... We began to get huge improvements in productivity and responsiveness. I got a chance to see that firsthand.
我清楚地记得,在第一次预算审查时,我与制造业主管进行了一次相当直接的对话……我们开始在生产力和反应能力方面取得巨大的进步。我有机会亲眼目睹。
It's so cliche to say florals for spring. I really like a vintage-like dress that's floral. You can belt it; I like belts. I like wearing pretty dresses that are really comfortable, that you can spend the day in but also feel girly.
春天说鲜花是陈词滥调。我很喜欢复古的花裙子。你可以系上腰带;我喜欢皮带。我喜欢穿漂亮的衣服,非常舒服,你可以在里面度过一天,但也觉得很女孩子气。
In the second installment, I pretty much dominate the show. Somehow or another, though, I manage to apparently dominate the first show pretty well with just my voice and my hands and a shot of my boots kicking cartridges out of the way.
在第二部中,我几乎主导了整个剧情。不过,不知怎的,我似乎凭借自己的声音、双手和一张靴子踢开子弹的照片,很好地控制了第一场秀。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
I've always been pretty energetic.
我一直精力充沛。
One can always come up with funny lists and jokes. You know what? I take it back. Not everyone can always come up with funny lists and some jokes. I'm very lucky to have a gift where I can do that pretty ably.
一个人总能想出有趣的清单和笑话。你知道吗?我收回这句话。不是每个人都能想出有趣的清单和一些笑话。我很幸运有这样一个天赋,我可以做得很好。
Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.
把你的手放在热炉子上一分钟,就像一个小时。和一个漂亮女孩一起坐一个小时,感觉就像一分钟。这就是相对论。
Rock fans are pretty fickle, too, you know.
你知道,摇滚歌迷也很善变。
I never thought I'd play soccer past high school, so to go from that team to actually being most-capped and three World Cups is pretty special.
我从来没有想过高中毕业后我还会踢足球,所以从那支球队到成为国家队出场次数最多的球队,再到三届世界杯,这是非常特别的。
