u want is an indispensable part of happiness. (Russell )
有些東西你想要而沒有,這是幸福不可缺少的一部分。(羅素)
【點評】“…is an indispensable part of….”,這個句型我們可以借鑒。
3. 沒有條件,創造條件也要上式
The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for circumstances they want, and if they cannot find them, make them. (Bernard Shaw)
在這個世界上取得成功的人,都努力去尋找他們想要的機會,如果找不到時,他們就自己創造機會。(蕭伯納)
【點評】這幾個小短語的連用很顯英文實力,“get on, get up and look for”簡單但組合後卻很不一般,這個句子是個很好的例子。
