给爱最重的礼物(2006-12-04 10:27:00)
摘要:"Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked.
When the bundle was nestled in her arms and she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped. The doctor turned quickly and looked out the tall hospital window. The baby had been born without ears.
Time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect. It was only his appearance that was marred. When he rushed home from school one day and flung himself into his mother's arms, she sighed, knowing that his life was to be a succession of heartbreaks.
He blurted out the tragedy. "A boy, a big boy...called me a freak."
He grew up, handsome for his misfortune. A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that. He developed a gift, a talent for literature and music.
"But you might mingle with other young people," his mother reproved him, but felt a kindness in her heart.
The boy's father had a session with the family physician... "Could nothing be done?"
"I believe I could graft on ......
坏女人专用英文词汇(2006-12-04 10:25:00)
摘要:有好女人,也就有坏女人。讲过那么多赞美女孩子、形容好女孩的句子,我们也该来学学怎么形容坏女人了。注意,这些词都不好听,一定要慎用,还有就是,万一你不小心用了,后果自负。
1. Are you trying to get me in my bitch mode or what?
你是要让我抓狂还是怎么样?
Bitch 这个词算是最常被拿来骂女人的一个字吧!几乎任何“坏女人”,我们都可以称之为 bitch。但是现在 bitch 已经不算是女人的专用字眼了,有些“坏男人”我们也可以骂他是 bitch,但比较少见就是了。像是在电影 Legally Blonde 里法庭上那一幕,一位在旁听席上的男子骂正坐在证人席上的男子:You bitch. 就是一个很好的例子。甚至有时候 bitch 也不单指人,像是如果要抱怨人生事事不如意的话,我们也可以说:Life is a bitch. 一般骂人的时候都是说:You are a bitch. 或者She is a bitch.。
有一个有趣的讲法是 bitch mode(坏女人模式),这就好比说一个人可以有正常模式 normal mode 跟坏女人模式 bitch mode。当她生气时,就会从正常模式切换成坏女人模式,所以例句中说 Are you trying to get me in my bitch mode or what? 就是这个道理。又比方说吧,有一个女生平常看起来乖乖的,从来也没发过太大的脾气,但有一天突然吃错药火山爆发了,像这种情况你就可以说:I've never seen her in the bitch mode. Today is my first time. (我从来没见她发脾气,今天还是头一糟呢!)
2. She is a shrew.
她是一个泼妇。
在英文里也有形容女人为 tigress (母老虎) 这么生动有趣的用法,但是英文的 tigress 指的是一个女人很性感 (sexy),而非很凶悍 (tough) 的意思,这跟中文里对“母老虎”的解释相差十万八千里。如果你是要形容泼妇,英文只有 shrew, virago, vixen 这几个词,但 shrew 大概算是比较常用的一个。要是各位对莎士比亚小有研究的话,就应该知道莎翁有一篇名作就叫做 The Taming of......
Who's your angel?(2006-11-27 16:45:00)
摘要:Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born. So one day he asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
God replied," Among the many angels, I chose one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you."
But the child wasn't sure he really wanted to go. "But tell me, here in Heaven, I don't do anything else but sing and smile, that's enough for me to be happy."
"Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be happy."
"And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me, "the child continued, "if I don't know the language that men talk?"
God patted him on the head and said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."
"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
But God had an a......

一位年轻的董事长给大学生的18条好建议(推荐)(2006-11-22 15:44:00)
摘要:1.一定要有独立的人格、独立的思想。一个经过独立思考而坚持错误观点的人比一个不假思索而接受正确观点的人更值得肯定。不要成为灌输教育的牺牲品。
2.仕途,商界,学术。大致说来,每个人都注定要走上三条道路中的某一条。在进行职业生涯规划的时候,不妨以此作为思考的出发点。根据不同的职业生涯规划来塑造各自的核心竞争力。只有知道自己以后要做什么,才能知道自己应该学什么。
3.专业无冷热,学校无高低。没有哪个用人单位会认为你代表了你的学校或者你的专业。千万不要因为你是名牌大学或者热门专业而沾沾自喜,也大可不必因为你的学校不好或者专业冷门而自卑。
4.千招会,不如一招熟。十个百分之十并不是百分之百,而是零。如果你有十项工作,每项都会做百分之十,那么,在用人单位眼中,你什么都不会。所以,你必须要让自己具备核心竞争力,“通才”只有在“专才”的基础上才有意义。
5.不逃课的学生不是好学生。什么课都不逃,跟什么课都逃掉没什么两样。一定要掌握学习的主动性,不要像读中学一样被老师牵着鼻子走。逃课没有错,但是不要逃错课。同时,既要逃课,又要让老师给高分。
6.一定要学会理财。对于贫困生来说,首先要做的不是挣钱,而是省钱。很多大学生读书的时候一掷千金,可是,毕业以后一个月的工资还不够交半个月的房租。
7.大部分女生将电脑当成了影碟机,大部分男生将电脑当成了游戏机。大学生要掌握必要的计算机操作能力,但是,很多时候电脑会成为浪费时间的堂而皇之的借口。有电脑的大学生非常多,可是,这中间很多人可能大学毕业的时候还不会Excel,不会做一个像样的PPT 。
8.做事不如做人,人脉决定成败。一个人有多少钱并不是指他拥有多少钱的所有权,而是指他拥有多少钱的使用权。一个人具备多少能力,不只是说他一个人的时候能做什么,还包括他能通过别人做什么。一个人赚的钱,12.5%是靠自身的知识,87.5%则来自人脉关系。三十岁以前靠专业赚钱,三十岁以后拿人脉赚钱。所以,请好好珍惜大学期间建立起来的人脉关系。这几年你认识的朋友可能会是你毕业以后最可宝贵的财富。
9.互联网固然威力无穷,但是,如果你沉迷于网络聊天,或者沉迷于网络游戏,浪费的金钱倒是可以弥补,荒废的青春就无可追寻了。轻舞飞扬已经红颜薄命了,而痞子蔡却继续跟别的女孩发生着一次又一次的亲密接触。对于很多大学生而言,网吧就是一个血淋淋的黑洞。

白领10种短命生活方式(2006-11-22 15:41:00)
摘要:“忙忙忙,忙到白了头”。忙碌的白领阶层在“金钱”与“健康”的物物交换中,损失掉的是什么呢?究竟是什么在日复一日地蚕食白领们的生命?
危险方式1:极度缺乏体育锻炼。
在932名被调查者中,只有96人每周都固定时间锻炼,68%的人选择了“几乎不锻炼”。这极易造成疲劳、昏眩等现象,引发肥胖和心脑血管疾病。
危险方式2:有病不求医。
调查显示,将近一半的人在有病时自己买药解决,有1/3的人则根本不理会任何表面的“小毛病”。许多上班一族的疾病被拖延,错过了最佳的治疗时间,一些疾病被药物表面缓解作用掩盖而积累成大病。
危险方式3:缺乏主动体检。
932人中,有219人从来不体检。
危险方式4:不吃早餐。
随着工作节奏加快,吃上符合营养要求的早餐已经成为办公室白领的奢求。被调查者中,只有219人是有规律、按照营养要求吃早餐的。不吃早餐或者胡乱塞几口成为普遍现象。
危险方式5:与家人缺少交流。
有超过41%的办公室人群很少和家人交流,即使家人主动关心,32%的人也常抱以应付的态度。在缺乏交流、疏导和宣泄的情况下,办公室人群的精神压力与日俱增。
危险方式6:长时间处在空调环境中。
在上班时,超过7成的人一年四季除了外出办事外,几乎常年窝在空调房中。“温室人”的自身肌体调节和抗病能力下降。
危险方式7:常坐不动。
被调查者中,有542人的工作习惯是一旦坐下来,除非上厕所,就轻易不站起来。久坐,不利于血液循环,会引发很多新陈代谢和心血管疾病;坐姿长久固定,也是颈椎、腰椎发病的重要因素。
危险方式8:不能保证睡眠时间。
有超过6成的人经常不能保证8小时睡眠时间,另有7%的人经常失眠。
危险方式9:面对电脑过久。
31%的人经常每天使用电脑超过8小时。过度使用和依赖电脑,除了辐射外,还使眼病、腰颈椎病、精神性疾病在办公室群体中十分普遍。
危险方式10:三餐饮食无规律。
有超过1/3的人不能保证按时进食三餐,确保三餐定时定量的人不满半数。......
What are friends for? 两肋插刀(2006-11-20 15:58:00)
摘要:What are friends for? 为朋友当然应该“两肋插刀”了。这次我们一起来分享几个地道英文句型,全都是书本上没有的哦!精彩不容错过!
1. Wouldn't miss... for the world
我绝对不会错过……的。
在某人邀请你参加某个活动的时候,恰巧你也很期待去参加,就可以用这句话:I wouldn't miss... for the world.
例如:
A: Are you going on the school trip?
你要参加学校的旅行吗?
B: I wouldn't miss it for the world.
我是一定会去的。
2. Is he all there?
他脑袋正常吗?
Is he all there? 不是指“他现在在哪里”。句中的all there 是指“脑袋处于正常的状况下”。所以这句话其实是用来质疑对方的脑袋是否正常,比如当你不相信对方干了什么傻事的时候:
A: My brother just got arrested for robbing a store.
我的兄弟因为偷盗商店而被被捕了。
B: You know, I don't think he's all there.
你知道,我觉得他的脑子不太正常。
3. ... While you are at it.
“既然你在那,就顺便……”,这个句子多用于某人外出在某地,你想借机让对方帮自己带过来一些东西,例如:
A: I am going out to rent a movie.
我要去租部电影来看。
B: Ok, please get me one too while you are at it.
好啊,顺便帮我也租一部吧。
4. Hold that thought
等会儿再说。
字面的意思是“你先保留住那个想法”,实际意思就是“你先等一下(等我做完了什么再说)”,还有一种解释是:你不愿意继续对方的话题,意思就是“以后再说吧”,以次作为谈话的终止。例如:
A: What do you think of Charlie?
你觉得查理怎么样?
B: Hold that thought. I just want to ......
