Aries can often think about themselves first, after all, they rule the first house of “self”. Be sure to find out what your sweetie wants, too。 白羊座：白羊们要记住，世界不是围着你转。白羊座的人可能通常先想到自己，毕竟，你们是最“自我”的一类。但也一定要弄清楚你的情人想要什么。 Taurus: Need to know where your partner is all the time or what they’re doing can easily put you on damage control.

| 单从电影的外语译名而言，曾有多少国外电影，因为异常出彩的中文译名，打动了无数中国观众的心灵，从这个全球最大市场赚了个盆满钵满；又有多少国产电影，用别有韵味的英文译名更加深入地诠释了整个影片的内涵和意境。 现在就让我们从电影译名开始，重温那些过去的经典、过去的故事、过去的年代…… 1.《Streetcar Named Desire》——《欲望号街车》 马龙·白兰度和费雯丽主演的这部影片诠释了爱慕虚荣的代价。Streetcar 指国外一种古老的有轨电车，车身与电线相连，按照既定的轨迹运行，但现在并不多见，更多的是以旅游观光车的形式出现。 2.《Face Off》——《变脸》 Face off并不是一种通俗的用法，根据电影的内容，可以理解为一种身份的互换，不同的角色设置。曾有人翻译成《夺命双雄》，易落俗套，而《变脸》看上去简洁神秘，以令人视觉迷离的角色互换，正邪两方的冲突和激战，吊足观众的胃口，贯穿影片始终，可以说生动地反映了警察与杀手的对立而又微妙的关系。 例如，两队开始比赛时：Both teams are ready to face off；准备与某人争辩或竞争：The candidates are preparing to face off on TV tonight。 3.《Romantic of Three Kingdoms》——《三国演义》 这是按照电影名称的字面翻译。Romantic当名词用时，有贬义的成分。如果说某人是Romantic，通常指他们的想法脱离实际，与真实生活不契合。例如，He is a romantic who longs for adventure。因为《三国演义》只是小说，不完全遵照历史，有类似戏说的成分，所以用Romantic而不是Romance来表述原著的内容。 Romantic：当形容词用时，与爱情相关，指拥有一段亲密的恋爱关系。例如：I'm not ready for a romantic relationship。 Romance：一般描述情侣之间的亲密关系。例如：Hemingway's romance with his nurse inspired him to write |
| 此文为转帖 先我是一个懒人，懒到没有兴趣就不愿意去学。 另外我是一个笨人，笨到没有联系就记不住东西。 所以，我通过电影（含美剧）来学习英语。 我希望，每个人都能找到适合自己的学习方式。不管你认为下面说的多有煽动性，多美好，毕竟只是我自己个人体会和方法。并不是贴谁身上都合适的万能膏药。毕竟各方面条件相同的实在是不怎么现实。 再次声明：以下为个人意见，本人并不否定其他学习方式，如果您有不同想法欢迎交流。 通过电影学英语是目前我所知的最有效，最便捷，最实用的学习方式，也是我正在运用的方法。 原因有很多，一个是其可操作性和易操作性。 1, 目前有专门看电影学英语的软件工具，大家可以在网上搜搜。 2，双语字幕电影资源很容易获得。网上很多可以下载获得 3，现在笔记本3000多就能买个双核的液晶显示的。台式机不要液晶屏大约2000左右，这已经可以看电影了。 4，相关操作相当的简单，很容易上手。 从学习方法的本身来说看双语字幕学电影有如下好处： 1，不枯燥，不易产生厌学情绪。因为英语是看电影学会，就好像只有文字的书谁看着都头痛，但是配上插图，即使内容不变也会让人感觉到容易，类似小孩的画册。 2，记忆牢固，很难忘记，因为知识和情节和故事融合在一起，大部分词汇是相当的扎实的。很多同学整天抱着个字典背单词，背多少望多少还不是因为没有联系？记忆需要联系，各位可以回想一下，小时候多事都记不清了，但是父母在床边讲过的故事情节有的却还很清晰--清晰的让你自己都吃惊。 3，英语学习的所有方面都可以涉及。 4，英语电影和美剧里的台词是最直白，最实用，最贴近口语的语言大家都知道口语也分正式场合和日常 |
| 1、You know — one loves the sunset, when one is so sad… 你知道的—当一个人情绪低落的时候，他会格外喜欢看日落…… 2、If someone loves a flower, of which just one single blossom grows in all the millions and millions of stars, it is enough to make him happy just to look at the stars. He can say to himself, "Somewhere, my flower is there…" But if the sheep eats the flower, in one moment all his stars will be darkened… And you think that is not important! 倘若一个人对一朵花情有独钟，而那花在浩瀚的星河中，是独一无二的，那么，他只要仰望繁星点点，就心满意足了。他会喃喃自语：“我的花就在星河的某个角落……”可是，这花一旦被羊吃掉了，一瞬间，所有星星都将随之黯淡无光……那你也认为这不重要吗？ 3、Flowers are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love her… 花总是表里不一，而我太年轻了，不知道该怎样爱护她…… 4、For she did not want him to see her crying. She was such a proud flower… 她其实是不愿意让小王子看到自己哭泣。她曾经是多么高傲的一朵花…… 5、My flower is ephemeral, and she has only four thorns to defend herself against the world. And |
| Thomas Jefferson First Inaugural Address First Inaugural Address March 4, 1801 FRIENDS AND FELLOW-CITIZENS, Called upon to undertake the duties of the first executive office of our country, I avail myself of the presence of that portion of my fellow-citizens which is here assembled to express my grateful thanks for the favor with which they have been pleased to look toward me, to declare a sincere consciousness that the task is above my talents, and that I approach it with those anxious and awful presentiments which the greatness of the charge and the weakness of my powers so justly inspire. A rising nation, spread over a wide and fruitful land, traversing all the seas with the rich productions of their industry, engaged in commerce with nations who feel power and forget right, advancing rapidly to destinies beyond the reach of mortal eye -- when I contemplate these transcendent objects, and see the honor, the happiness, and the hopes of this beloved country committed to the issue |
| There are many ways for an interview to go wrong. You show up late. There's a stain on your shirt. You accidentally insult the interviewer's mother. All avoidable mistakes。 搞砸一个面试的方法有很多。你迟到了，你把衬衫弄脏了，你无意中侮辱了面试官的妈妈。所有这些都是可以避免的错误。 Sometimes, however, there simply isn't a clear explanation for why an interview isn't going well. Sometimes, no matter what you do or say, an interview just fizzles。 但是有时候，并没有一个清楚的理由来解释为什么面试会变得很失败。有时候，不管你做什么或是说什么，面试就是失败了。 Don't panic--you can save this interview。 别惊慌失措--你还能把面试挽救回来。 The first step: Smile。 第一步：微笑。 Body language plays an important part in an interview. If you relax your shoulders and give a big ol'grin, you'll feel more comfortable ... and so will the interviewer. Smiling also helps increase your energy and project confidence -- all plusses in an interview。 肢体语言在面试中能起到非常大的作用。如果你放松你的双肩加上一个大大的笑容，你会觉得更舒服。面试官也一样。微笑能够提升你的能量，增强你的自信--这在面试中都会被加分。 While smiling is a good start to turning an interview around, there are |
