rebellious(a.)

A: Johnny is a little rebellious... 强尼有些叛逆……
B: Is that why he sets things on fire? 所以他才放火烧东西?

#每日一句#

I didn't mean to stand you up.
我不是故意对你失约的。

跟别人约好,结果你没有赴约,也就是说你“对某人失约”,它的英文就是“stand sb. up”。如果你失约了,当你要跟对方说你不是故意失约的时候,你是在说一件过去的事情,所以要说I didn't mean to stand you up. 注意句中要用过去式。

Englishman

Once, late at night, an Englishman came out of his room into the corridor of a hotel and asked the servant to bring him a glass of water. The servant did as he was asked. The Englishman re-entered his room, but a few minutes later he came into the corridor again and once more asked the servant for a glass of water. The servant brought him another glass of water. Every few minutes the Englishmen would come out of his room and repeat his request. After a half-hour the astonished servant decided to ask the Englishman what he was doing with the water. "Nothing," the Englishman answered imperturbably, "It’s simply that my room is on fire."

Two Squirrels in a Tree 树上的两只松树澳大利亚经济

"Holly, there's a phone call for you," a girl from downstairs told me when I opened the door. I ran downstairs to the only phone in the entire dorm. It was a sad-looking, clunky payphone, placed in a corner of what used to be the front parlor of a grand house but was now just an empty, dark space that was especially cold on winter nights.

It was a friend from back home, Jared. "Zoe's dead," he said.

I stared at the colored glass window next to the phone. The lamp outside lit it up and cast colors on the wall. "What? You're kidding me," I said in disbelief.

"No, I'm not kidding you," Jared said bluntly.

"No, she can't be dead," I said, rather matter-of-factly.

"She was at a party at someone's house," Jared continued. "And she and this boy were sitting on a dresser by the window, on the fourth floor. They were leaning against the window, and it just gave way and she and the boy fell out."

One of my best friends had fallen out of a window. It sounded like a freak accident. It sounded like a lie.

"The guy is in the hospital, in critical condition. But Zoe didn't make it, Holly," Jared said. "I couldn't believe it either when they told me. I was late to that party, and when I got there, everyone was outside talking. I rushed to the hospital, but she was already dead."

Jared's voice seemed to fade away. I remembered a time the other day, when I was out walking by myself, and I saw two squirrels fighting in a tree. I had never heard the sound of squirrels fighting, and it stopped me in my tracks. Overhead, the squirrels were wrestling, screaming strangely. Then they fell from that great height — as if in slow motion, because it took forever for them to hit the ground. They hit the ground with a loud plop. One of them got up and limped away, but the other one just lay there, not moving. It had left me jolted and shocked — but only a fraction of what I felt now.

Then I knew that it was real, because no one would play such a cruel joke on me. I stayed by that lonely payphone for a while, even after I had gotten off of it, staring at the peeling paint and the dirty, translucent window. I realized it was actually a beautiful window.

You are Beautiful
James Blunt

my life is brilliant
my life is brilliant
my love is pure
I saw an angel of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful it's true
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do.
cos I'll never be with you
Yes, she caught my eye,
As I walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
'And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful it's true
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do.
cos I'll never be with you
La la la la,
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,

I will never be with you.
