碎碎念:从去年开始加了一个英语阅读的群,每个月会带读一本英语原版书,每天半小时左右。可惜由于拖延症等问题,每本书都未能好好的跟完,否则总结回顾2017,就可以很得意的说自己读完了12本英文原版书。
读原版书,开始只是为了练练英文,后来发现真的是书中自有黄金屋,在老师的讲解中,竟然感受到了文字的魅力。
在此记录,为了督促自己赶上新年的进度,每天记录一点点,完整读完一本原版书。
PS:为什么是从Day2 开始呢,是的,就是又欠课了。。。Day1 读了,但是小测验未做,先pass吧。。。苏菲的世界,以入门哲学闻名,不知道读完后是否会突然对世界有了不一样的看法或认识呢,期待ing。
当然,首先还是要每天坚持,加油吧~
Day2 Chapter 1 The Garden of Eden, Part 2
Who are you?
"You can’t experience being alive without realizing that you have to die, she thought. But it’s just as impossible to realize you have to die without thinking how incredibly amazing it is to be alive."
“How tragic that most people had to get ill before they understood what a gift it was to be alive. Or else they had to find a mysterious letter in the mailbox!”
真的是只有在牙疼的时候才会体会到牙齿的重要性。所以是说要对生活多思考,不要把很多事情都当成理所应当,要保持好奇心?
Where does the world came from?
"At some point, something must have come from nothing. But was that possible? Wasn’t that just as impossible as the idea that the world had always existed?"
世界来自哪里,想到了 The Big Bang Theory Theme,
《the history of everything》
Barenaked Ladies Our whole universe was in a hot dense state, 宇宙一度又烫又稠密 Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started. Wait... 140亿年前终于爆了炸 等着瞧... The Earth began to cool, 地球开始降温 The autotrophs began to drool, 自养生物来起哄 Neanderthals developed tools, 穴居人发明工具 We built a wall (we built the pyramids), 我们建长城(我们建金字塔) Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries, 数学 自然科学 历史 揭开神秘 That all started with the big bang! 一切由大爆炸开始 "Since the dawn of man" is really not that long, 其实人类历史没有多久
功利的想法来看,这个问题想了也没什么用啊,即使知道世界从何而来,如何呢,再造一个地球吗?
但是不能用有用没用来简单定义事情,世界要探索,生活要继续,人不是只需要满足温饱的,我们有思考,有情感,需要感受和被感受。
