Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the
world, I think about the arrival's gate at Heathrow
airport.General opinion start to make out that we live in a world of hatred and
greed. But I don't see that, seems to me that love is everywhere. Often
it's not particularly dignified or
newsworthy, but it's always
there, fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and
wives, boyfriend, girlfriend, old friends. When the plane hit the Twin Tower, as
far as I know, none of the phone calls from people on board were messages of hate or revenge. They
are all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling love
actually is all around.
妙詞佳句，活學(xué)活用
1. Get gloomy with sth.
Gloomy 這個(gè)詞應(yīng)該算得上是個(gè)常用詞匯了，因?yàn)槊慨?dāng)心情不好的時(shí)候，我們就會(huì)用得到，比如：What's going on? You look
gloomy today. 當(dāng)然我們也可以說(shuō) sth is gloomy，打個(gè)比方， Our future is gloomy. 指的就是“前途暗淡！”而短語(yǔ)
get gloomy with sth 指的是對(duì)某種東西感到焦慮，甚至有時(shí)是到了憂郁的地步。原文當(dāng)中的這句話 I get gloomy with the
state of the world. 指的就是"對(duì)世界的現(xiàn)狀感到焦慮！"
3. It's always there “它一直都在那兒”!
看似簡(jiǎn)單的一句話，卻很少有人能在適當(dāng)?shù)臅r(shí)候用好。我們先設(shè)定一個(gè)場(chǎng)景：有些人在遇到困難的時(shí)候總是會(huì)選擇逃避，雖然大家心里都清楚躲是躲不了的，其實(shí)我們還有另外一條路可以走，那就是戰(zhàn)勝困難，一直向前。因?yàn)?
The difficulties are always there, and the only choice we've got is to face it
and conquer it.
4. On board 很簡(jiǎn)單的短語(yǔ)，“在飛機(jī)上”！
