看到事情好的一面，即便身處困境，也永遠不要失去希望。最終，你會發(fā)現(xiàn)自己已逐漸成長為一個全面發(fā)展的人。正如老子睿智的箴言所說的那樣：“千里之行，始于足下?！蹦銈冃枰獔猿植恍福θビ柧氉约旱念^腦、培養(yǎng)自身的性格。高中階段會幫助你們學習、成長，但是只有你們自己，才能肩負起發(fā)揮自身巨大潛能的責任。滿懷信心，竭盡全力，讓我們?yōu)槟銈兏械津湴涟桑÷糜W校生活去年，我有機會作為交換生到英國的一所中學讀書。我寄宿在一個親切友好的家庭，并與這家人的兒子丹尼爾一同上學。我們?nèi)ツ甓甲x十年級，相處得很融洽。丹尼爾正在學習中文，今年要來中國與我一起學習生活。英國的學校上午9點左右開始上課，下午4點左右放學。在英國每個中學生必須要學習英文、數(shù)學，以及科學課（生物、化學、物理）。在十年級時學生通常要學習九門功課，他們也可以選修其他課程，比如歷史、藝術和商業(yè)。英國的課堂與中國不同。每位老師都有自己的教室，學生們每節(jié)課走班上課。在我所上的大部分課上，都只有二十個學生左右。然而剛開始時，我仍然很難記住所有人的名字！大部分課程我都喜歡，但是也有一些非常有挑戰(zhàn)性。技術課很有意思。我做了一只鐘帶回家。老師幫助我完成了零件組裝。我太喜歡這只鐘了，現(xiàn)在還在用它當鬧鐘呢！我覺得數(shù)學很簡單，學起來很愉快，因為英國的教材沒有中國的難。不過，用英語學習對我來說是一項巨大的挑戰(zhàn)。難詞很多，尤其是在地理和生物兩門課中。在英國，課堂討論很重要，可是我貢獻不大，因為有時候我沒辦法用英文清楚地表達自己的觀點。盡管作業(yè)不像以前那么繁重，卻仍舊很有挑戰(zhàn)性。幸好，老師和同學們一直都樂于幫助我，并給予我很多鼓勵。漸漸地，我的語言能力提高了。一小時的午餐時間，我在學校餐廳用餐。選擇很豐富，有黃油面包、雞肉餡餅和布丁等等，但我還是想念媽媽做的菜！吃完午餐，我常常同丹尼爾，還有他的朋友們?nèi)W校的大運動場活動活動。有時候，我們就在樹下小憩或者在草地上坐坐。放學后，有許多俱樂部可以參加。最吸引我的是橄欖球俱樂部。我們每周打一次球，真的很有趣。我也喜歡去戲劇俱樂部表演。我還留著自己參演莎士比亞《仲夏夜之夢》時的劇照。加入俱樂部是與英國學生相識、交友的好方法。我很高興有機會體驗這種不同的生活方式。在英國我見到了一些很棒的人，也了解了英國校園生活的方方面面。丹尼爾和他的家人是非常棒的東道主，丹尼爾的朋友也十分友好。我迫不及待要讓丹尼爾來中國了！詞匯翻譯訓練1.potential/p??ten?l/n.潛力；可能性adj.潛在的，可能的請翻譯：相反，長期睡眠不足不僅剝奪了我們白天學習所需的能量，還導致許多潛在的身心疾病。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________2.challenge/?t??l?nd?/n.&vt.挑戰(zhàn)；質(zhì)疑請翻譯：只有保持健康的生活方式，我們才能擁有強大的身體來應對未來的挑戰(zhàn)。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________3.positive/?p?z?t?v/adj.積極樂觀的；良好的，正面的請翻譯：這就是為什么我們應該對在線學習采取積極的態(tài)度。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________4.opportunity/??p??tju?n?ti/n.機會，時機請翻譯：我想這將是像你這樣的外國人體驗中國工匠高超技藝的絕佳機會。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________5.acquire/??kwa??(r)/vt.獲得，得到請翻譯：在小說中，孫悟空也被稱為猴王，是一只從石頭上出生的猴子，通過道教實踐獲得了超自然的力量，從中他知道了72種轉(zhuǎn)變，使他能夠轉(zhuǎn)變成各種動物和物體。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________6.effort/?ef?t/n.努力，費力的事；試圖請翻譯：既然我已經(jīng)規(guī)劃了我的職業(yè)生涯，我將不遺余力地學習所有相關課程。我相信我會成功的！非常感謝。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________7.advance/?d?vɑ?ns/n.進步，進展；前進，行進vt.&vi.發(fā)展，進步請翻譯：更重要的是，人們提高了自己的素質(zhì)，因為先進的技術為我們提供了更多受教育的機會。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________8.confidence/?k?nf?d?ns/n.信心，信任；把握請翻譯：這次會議給我?guī)砹撕芏嗔α?，現(xiàn)在我堅信信心和毅力可以給我?guī)砉饷鞯奈磥?。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________9.makeadifference起作用，有影響請翻譯：每個人都能有所作為，讓我們?yōu)榈厍驇砀饷鞯奈磥恚_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________10.makethemostof充分利用，盡情享受請翻譯：不要猶豫，抓住這個機會，充分利用您的住宿。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________11.takeadvantageof利用請翻譯：盡最大努力成為聰明的在線學習者，利用在線學習的便利。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________12.attitude/??t?tju?d/n.態(tài)度，看法請翻譯：這就是為什么我們應該對在線學習采取積極的態(tài)度。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________13.improve/?m?pru?v/vt.&vi.改進，改善請翻譯：許多貧困家庭得到了地方政府的有效幫助，他們的生活大大改善。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________14.lastbutnotleast最后但同樣重要的請翻譯：最后但同樣重要的是，如果你碰巧在車里，你最好停下來離開你的車。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________15.individual/??nd??v?d?u?l/n.個人adj.單獨的，個別的請翻譯：希望您能分享一些英國的垃圾分類實踐，并就如何在個人層面上進行分類提供一些啟示。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________16.responsible/
