本文主要是介绍TED地道用语学习 - <尝试做新事情30天 --- 从宅男变骑车人>,希望对大家解决编程问题提供一定的参考价值,需要的开发者们随着小编来一起学习吧!
看TED可谓一举三得: 练习了听力,学会了一些地道用词,同时还得到了一些生活/工作方面的启发。
A few years ago, I felt like I was stuck in a rut,...
---- 我感觉对老一套感到枯燥乏味。 in a rut:千篇一律,一成不变
so I decide to follow in the footsteps of the great American philosopher, Morgan Spurlock,
---- follow in the footsteps of.. 跟随...的脚步
try something new for 30 days
Think about something you've always wanted to add to your life
---- 一直想写5G博客!!
It turns out, 30 days is just about the right amount of time
---- 这就是(turn out(that) 结果是),30天刚好是这么一段合适的时间
bike to work
---- vi动词
To add a new habit or subtract a habit --
---- 去养成一个新的习惯或改掉一个习惯。 subtract:减去,扣掉
There's a few things I learned while doing these 30-day challenges.
The first was, instead of the months flying by, forgotten, the time was much more memorable.
---- 取代了 飞逝而过易被遗忘的岁月的是... (如果你用三十天重新开始博客写作,是不是很值得回忆?)
every day for a month
---- 一个月内每天...
I also noticed that as I started to do more and harder 30-day challenges.
My self-confidence grew. (不错,还有副产品:连自信都可以增长了)
I went from the desk-dwelling computer nerd to the Kind of guy who bikes to work -- for fun.
---- 我从一个台式机宅男极客
Even last year, I ended up hiking up Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.
---- 甚至去年,我完成了在非洲最高山峰乞力马扎罗山的远足
I would never have been that adventurous before I started my 30-day challenges.
---- 在我开始尝试这30天做挑战性的事之前,我从来没有这样冒险过。 (不要试图去分析这个句子的时态,就记住这个情境就行了)
I also figured out that if you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30 days.
---- 我也认识到,如果非常(badly)想要某些东西的话,你可以在这30天做任何事情。
tens of thousands of people try to write their own 50,000-word novel from scratch in 30 days.
---- from scratch:从零开始;白手起家 (何况你的通信协议知识还不是from scratch)
By the way, the secret is not to go to sleep, until you've written your words for the day
---- 你也要直到你写完这篇博客再睡觉!)
You might be sleep-deprived
---- 你可能被剥夺睡眠
Now is my book the next great American novel
So here is one last thing I'd like to mention
I learned that when I made small, sustainable changes, things I could keep doing, they were more likely to stick.
---- 我可以更容易坚持坚持做下来 (这才是惊世秘密啊:坚持每天改变一点点!!!!).
sustainable:可以忍受的,足够支撑的,养得起的
There's nothing wrong with big, crazy challenges. In fact, they're a ton of fun. But they're less likely to stick.
---- (想一下子有大的改变,通常很难坚持!)
So here's my question to you.
What are you waiting for?
---- 你到底在等待什么呢?再等,什么结果也不会有 --- 除了变老!
I guarantee to you the next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not,
so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot(试试) for the next 30 days.
