每天分享一篇中英雙語美文，對英語口語的練習很有幫助，也是積累英語考試中寫作，翻譯素材的好資料，加油吧!
Don’t try so hard to be respectable. Speak from your heart about what you truly believe, even if it makes you look naive or sentimental.
不要太用力去得到社會的認可。傾聽你內(nèi)心真正相信的東西，即使這會讓你看起來天真或傷感。
You can radically change your life when/if you need to. You don’t need to keep doing what you have been doing, just because you are in the habit of doing it.
你可以徹底改變你的生活，只要你想去改變。你不需要因為習慣了做一件事，就繼續(xù)做下去。
Being friendly and open to meeting new people in random places can lead to cool adventures and friendships. Don’t get too comfortable in your present circles of acquaintances.
對在任何地方遇到的陌生人都抱著開放和友好的態(tài)度，可能會給你帶來炫酷的經(jīng)歷和友情。別太陷在你現(xiàn)在的熟人圈子里。
You need way less money than you think to survive, stop obsessing about it, and just spend less.
生活必需的錢比你想象得要少得多，不要迷戀錢，少花就是。
It’s OK not to know what you want to do for the rest of your life. Leave space for the completely unexpected to happen.
你不知道自己余生想做什么也OK，剛好為完全未知的事情留出空間。
God loves you even more because you are a bit of a freak. Don’t hide your light under a button-down bushel.
如果你有一點瘋狂，上帝會更愛你的。千萬不要掩藏你的才華。
Leave your door without any purpose once in a while and see where the city takes you. Don’t just stay on the path between your apartment, work and the gym.
偶爾毫無目的地出去走走，看看你生活的城市能帶你去哪兒。不要固定在家、公司、健身房三點之間。
Hang out with your long-time friends more and contact those with whom you have lost touch. You don’t seem to have as many friends as you used to.
多多與多年老友碰面，重新找到失去聯(lián)系的朋友。因為你會發(fā)現(xiàn)自己沒原來那么多朋友了。
Ambition is overrated. Stop trying so hard to be "successful."
抱負被抬得過高。不要費勁全力只為了所謂的“成功”。
It’s a good thing to believe that a Utopian society where everyone is treated with dignity and equality is possible and worth working for. Cynicism doesn’t make you intelligent -- it just makes you cynical.
相信人人平等、有尊嚴的烏托邦社會可以實現(xiàn)，并愿為實現(xiàn)這一目標而努力是好事。但憤世嫉俗不會讓你變聰明，只會讓你變得憤世嫉俗。
Create art every once in a while. Even though you aren’t particularly talented and nobody really loved your ’nude portrait under autumn leaves’ the creative process is good for your soul.
偶爾搞搞藝術。就算你沒有特別的才華，就算沒有人欣賞你的“秋天落葉下的裸體自畫像”，創(chuàng)造的過程也能美化你的靈魂。
The next time you hear yourself reminiscing about how you "used to do something," make a plan to do it. Studying dance, carving pumpkins for Halloween, and doing improve shouldn’t all be thought of in the past tense.
下一次你再回憶起當年“做什么事”的時候，制定一個重新開始的計劃吧。學跳舞、刻萬圣節(jié)南瓜、即興表演都不應該存在于過去式中。
