②It sells so well.它卖得很好。"sell"这里是系动词(像am,is,are一样)用法,和主系表结构是一样的。用法就是“主语+sell+表语”。

Love Unconditionally无条件的爱

A neighbor's young daughter is given huge amounts of presents for Christmas,birthdays and many other special days in the past years.In fact,it has reached the stage where the family could almost,it has been jokingly suggested by some friends and relatives,invest in a second house just to contain all their daughter's gifts!

Despite the many dolls which the girl receives——which talk and laugh,and even walk--her favourite is an ancient,battered doll that is nothing more than a hand-me-down.But that's the doll the girl loves.

Children teach us that despite sometimes their same materialistic attitudes as adults,their standards are completely different.When they love,they love unconditionally.

过去几年,一个邻居的小女儿每逢圣诞节、生日和其他特殊的日子会收到许多礼物。一些朋友亲戚开玩笑说,家庭几乎可以投资另一间房子了,来容纳他们女儿的所 有礼物。

尽管女孩收到许多娃娃,有的会说话,有的会笑,有的甚至会走路。 但她最喜欢的是一个古老的、破旧的娃娃,也无非是一个别人用过的。但是,这就是女孩爱的 娃娃。

孩子们教会了我们,尽管有时他们和成人的物质态度一样,但标准完全不同。当他们爱的时候,是完全无条件的爱。

03经典背诵

True Nobility真正的高贵

I have always believed that the man who has begun to live more seriously within begins lives more simply.In an age of extravagance and waste,I wish I could show to the world how few the real wants of humanity are.

To regret one's errors to the point of not repeating them is true repentance.There is nothing noble in being superior to some other men.Thetrue nobility is in being superior to your previous self.

我总是认为开始更加认真生活的人往往活得更简单。在一个奢侈浪费的年代,我想向世界展示人类真正需求的东西是多么少。

后悔自己的错误而不去重复他们才是真正的悔改。没有什么优于他人的高贵。真正的高贵是超越之前的自我。
