回来了啊 哈哈 过年好啊

新年好！！现在还是手机上论坛，明天换电脑！！

     When I was young, I couldn't sleep at night, cause I thought there was a monster in the closet. But my brother told me there wasn't anything in the closet but fear. That fear wasn't real. He said it wasn't made of anything. It was just air. Not even that. He said you just have to face it. You just have to open that door, and the monster would disappear. In here, though, you face your fear, you open that door... and there's a hundred more doors behind it. And the monsters that are hiding behind them... are all real. But I think I'd like to face the monsters on my own.
    我小时候晚上无法总睡不着，觉得衣橱里有怪物在窥视我。我哥哥对我说，门后面什么也没有，只有你的恐惧，那不是真实的。他说那种恐惧只是无中生有想象出来的。他还说你必须要面对它，打开那扇门，怪物就会消失。但是在这里， 你勇敢面对恐惧，你打开那扇门，却看到另一百扇门。而门后隐藏的怪物…都是真实的。不过，我愿意自己来面对这些怪物。
                                                                                           ——《越狱》
希望有天我也可以用这么简单的单词表达那么深刻的意思。

how to speak and write correctly里的开头语：
It is very easy to learn how to speak and write correctly, as for all purposes of ordinary conversation and communication, only about 2,000 different words are required. The mastery of just twenty hundred words, the knowing where to place them, will make us not masters of the English language, but masters of correct speaking and writing. Small number, you will say, compared with what is in the dictionary! But nobody ever uses all the words in the dictionary or could use them did he live to be the age of Methuselah, and there is no necessity for using them.
To use a big word or a foreign word when a small one and a familiar one will answer the same purpose, is a sign of ignorance. Great scholars and writers and polite speakers use simple words.

　　Whenever you feel like criticizing any one, just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had.


       每当你觉得想要批评什么人的时候，你切要记着，这个世界上的人并非都具备你禀有的条件。

    看了之后，觉得雷昂纳多这个演员好有范，很感动，很爱里面的那首歌，<young and beautiful>。太好听了。

女歌手不停唱着“will you still love me when i am no longer young and beautiful, will you still love me when i got nothing but my naked soul,i know you will, i know you will······”，觉得能闻到玫瑰绽开的香气！！！

There is no failure if everything is a learning opportunity.
今天 在别人空间里面看到了一句话 觉得自己可以翻译 可以还是翻译不来
第一印象是 如果每件事情都有机会去学习的话 就不会有失败了
结果答案是  如果把每件事都看作是一个学习的机会，那就没有所谓的失败了.
我知道learning是一个形容词 但是 “认为”是怎么想到的呢，我还是觉得原句应该这样表达
There is no failure if you consider everything as a learning opportunity.
或许 这就是中英文化差异吧 好苦恼
