今天的這段對(duì)話,在討論重來,
如果時(shí)間可以重來,你最想回到過去做什么事
來聽今天的講解:
A: So Adam, today we're talking about do-overs. So what is something that you wish you would have done over? For example, maybe something in your university life?
亞當(dāng),今天我們來談?wù)勀阆M貋硪槐榈氖虑椤D男┦悄阆朐僦匦聛磉^的事情?也許是你大學(xué)生活期間的事情?
B: Yeah. There are a few things. I might change my major. I studied education, and while I enjoy what I'm doing right now, my free time I really like watching movies about science and astronomy. And if I would go back to school and start my studies over, I'd probably study something along those lines, astronomy and metaphysics or something. I think that those topics are really interesting and on the cutting edge of science and just fascinating to explore.
對(duì),有一些事情。我想改專業(yè)。我的專業(yè)是教育學(xué),雖然我很喜歡我現(xiàn)在的工作,不過我在空閑時(shí)間非常喜歡看有關(guān)科學(xué)和天文學(xué)的電影。如果我能回到學(xué)校,重新學(xué)習(xí),我可能會(huì)學(xué)習(xí)與天文學(xué)或玄學(xué)相關(guān)的專業(yè)。我認(rèn)為那些課題非常有意思,我非常想去探索最尖端的科學(xué)。
A: Interesting. Anything else you wish you would have done?
這很有意思。還有其他事是你想重來一遍的嗎?
B: I might have been more involved in the sports clubs at my school. For example, the American football team. I played in high school but in college, I wanted to play but I didn't have the motivation to push me over the edge to actually go out and really put my heart into it. I went to one training day and kind of tried out, but I didn't really pursue it as much as I would have liked. I think it would have been fun to be a part of that culture and that environment.
我可能會(huì)在上學(xué)期間加入運(yùn)動(dòng)隊(duì)。比如美式橄欖球隊(duì)。我在高中打過美式橄欖球,不過上大學(xué)以后,我雖然想繼續(xù),但是沒有動(dòng)力驅(qū)使我全身心投入到橄欖球運(yùn)動(dòng)中。我之前參加過訓(xùn)練和選拔,但是雖然我很喜歡橄欖球,但是我并沒有盡力去參與這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)。我認(rèn)為成為橄欖球文化和環(huán)境的一部分會(huì)很有趣。
A: How about something that you did do that maybe now you wish you hadn't?
那那些你做過但是現(xiàn)在你希望沒做過的事是什么?
B: I pierced my ears in high school because that was the cool thing to do. But now I don't wear earrings. And yeah, looking back on it, kind of just a silly thing to do that I'm trying to follow the trends, that, you know, trends usually pass. So yeah, that would be something that I wouldn't do again.
我在高中打了耳洞,因?yàn)楫?dāng)時(shí)我認(rèn)為那是一件很酷的事情。可是我現(xiàn)在不戴耳環(huán)?;叵胍幌拢冯S潮流真是一件很傻的事情,潮流總會(huì)過時(shí)的。這是我不會(huì)再做的事情。
A: Nice. Anything else you would have changed?
好。還有其他你希望改變的事情嗎?
B: I might have made different decisions about my girlfriends at the time. I had a really good girlfriend in the beginning of college, and things didn't work out because of a variety of reasons. But I think if we would have worked on it, we could have. We could have made it, made it happen. So yeah, that's something I think about sometimes about life in college. It's always, you know, college love is kind of a crazy thing. So yeah, we're too much like kids, I guess, I think at that age.
我可能會(huì)對(duì)之前的女友做出不同的決定。剛上大學(xué)時(shí),我交了一個(gè)非常不錯(cuò)的女友,但是因?yàn)楦鞣N原因,我們倆沒能走下去。不過我認(rèn)為,如果我們能解決我們的問題,我們是能修成正果的。我們能成功,我們能做到。這是我在想到大學(xué)生活時(shí),有時(shí)會(huì)思考的事情。你知道,大學(xué)時(shí)的戀愛非常瘋狂。在那個(gè)年紀(jì),我們還像孩子一樣。
A: Okay. Thanks, Adam.
好。謝謝你,亞當(dāng)。
