When tempted to fight fire with fire, remember that the Fire Department usually uses water. 当你想要以火攻火时，可别忘了消防队员一般都是用水就可以了。 -- Anonymous 佚名 Morning! Have you ever had anyone do something that makes you mad, and you thought to yourself, 'You're not gonna get away with that! I shall have my revenge!!!' 早安！你有没有遇见过这样的情况：某人做了一些让你很生气的事情，然后你自己就默默地想，“你可别以为你躲得掉，我一定会报复的！！！” In English, we call that 'fighting fire with fire'. Like when Donald Trump rants on Twitter at 3am about Miss Universe 1996. Hilarious? Yes. Ridiculous? Definitely. 在英语里吗，我们会把它叫做“fighting fire with fire”（以火攻火）。就像唐纳德·川普一样，半夜三点发推特辱骂96年的环球小姐。好笑吗？太好笑了。可笑吗？可笑极了！ Another approach, which today's quote suggests, is to remember how the Fire Department fights fires...not with fire, but with water. The Fire Department's goal is to put the fire out ASAP, not to spread it further! 还有一种方法呢，也就是今天引语里提到的：想想消防队员是怎么对付火灾的... 并不是用火，而是用水。消防队员的任务，就是尽快把火扑灭，而不是让它燃得更焰！ So next time you're in an argument with someone, or you feel you've been wronged, instead of picking up a knife and planning your sweet, sweet revenge, buy a water gun and shoot them in the face! 所以，下次如果你和别人起了争执，或者你被错怪了。不要想着去准备把小刀，盘算着如何完美地报复，而是要买把水枪，直接喷到他们脸上！ Have an awesome day! Peace out~ Vocabulary Revenge (n.) 报复 Rant (v.) 辱骂，大声责骂 Spread (v.) 撒播，扩张 Grammar point Instead of... do... 不要做... 而是做… After his girlfriend broke up with him, instead of finding a new girlfriend, Ross decided to turn gay. 在和女朋友分手后，罗斯并没有去找一个新的女朋友，而是决定变成了gay。 每日引语——每天听霸霸的声音学英语！霸霸哒~ 周一 Motivational 动力源泉 周二 Inspiring 激励自我 周三 Silly 轻松一笑 周四 Motivational 动力源泉 周五 Celebrity 名人妙语 周六 Pickup Lines 社交搭讪 周日 Thought-provoking 发人深省 |
