英文原文

Wind is a powerful force in nature. Wind energy is partly responsible for great waves in the world's oceans. Winds can help create powerful storms, such as tornadoes and hurricanes. From very light winds or breezes to strong gales, wind is a force you can't see but can surely feel. Its power can be captured to create electricity for cities and the countryside. Wind can also power many expressions in American English.

風(fēng)是大自然中一種強大的力量。風(fēng)能讓世界上的海洋刮起巨浪。風(fēng)還能引發(fā)強大的風(fēng)暴，如龍卷風(fēng)和颶風(fēng)。從微風(fēng)到狂風(fēng)，風(fēng)是一種你看不見但能切實感受到的力量。人們可以捕獲風(fēng)能，為城市和鄉(xiāng)村提供電力。風(fēng)還能激發(fā)許多美式英語的表達(dá)。

Let's start with a simple one. If you run like the wind, you are a very fast runner. After running, sometimes you can feel energized. The runner gets what we call a "second wind." We use this expression when we were tired but then get more energy to finish something. For example, sometimes I feel tired after work, but after a short rest and a cup of tea, I get my second wind. I'm ready to do something fun with my friends and family.

讓我們從一個簡單的開始。如果你跑得跟風(fēng)一樣快，那你就是一個跑得非?？斓娜恕Ｅ懿街?，有時你會感到精力充沛。跑步者獲得了我們所說的“第二股勁”。當(dāng)我們感到疲憊但又獲得了更多能量來完成某事時，就會使用這個表達(dá)。例如，有時我下班后感到疲憊，但經(jīng)過短暫的休息和一杯茶后，我就恢復(fù)了精力。我準(zhǔn)備與我的朋友和家人做一些有趣的事情。

Now, people who throw caution to the wind take a chance. This means they become careless or carefree, depending on the situation. People forget what they should be doing and just do what they want to instead. Now, if you are doing something difficult, it is good to have the wind at your back. This way, it is easier to go forward. It's always more difficult to do something in a strong wind, unless you are sailing.

現(xiàn)在，那些不顧一切放手一搏的人會冒一次險。這意味著他們會根據(jù)情況變得粗心或無憂無慮。人們忘記了他們應(yīng)該做什么，而只是做自己想做的事?，F(xiàn)在，如果你正在做一件困難的事情，那么順風(fēng)而行是有好處的。這樣更容易前進(jìn)。在強風(fēng)中做事總是更困難，除非你正在航行。

Knowing the direction of the wind is the most important part of sailing. When wind fills a sail, it makes the boat go faster. When you or I have wind in our sails, we have the energy and power to do what we want. If you take the wind out of someone's sails, you keep them from reaching their objectives. You create a barrier or block them in some way.

了解風(fēng)向是航行的最重要部分。當(dāng)風(fēng)吹滿帆時，船會行駛得更快。當(dāng)你或我揚帆起航時，我們就有了做我們想做的事情的能量和動力。如果你讓別人失去動力，你就會阻止他們達(dá)到目標(biāo)。你會以某種方式為他們設(shè)置障礙或阻擋他們。

In life, it's a good idea to surround yourself with people who want to fill your sails with wind and not take it out.

在生活中，最好讓自己身邊圍繞著那些愿意為你提供動力而不是削弱你的人。
