『父親的愛』
有一位教授，他有好幾個兒子，都在牛津讀書。
最小的兒子卻不是，所以他總覺得自己比不上哥哥們。有一天他跑上樓，把自己的東西打包了，又拿了他父親的一些錢，就寫一張字條留給他的父母說，我太差，我不配作你們的兒子，我走了⋯⋯

Elephants use trees or rocks to scratch an itch they can’t reach with their trunks, but that might not have been the only reason for its behavior with the car.

拍攝景物的撇步
5 unique tips for better landscape photography
1. Don’t be afraid to use negative space to fill the frame. 別害怕使用用黑暗的空間來填補框面
The world is a large place and one of the greatest things about the backcountry is that it always has a different backdrop. Use it to your advantage!
2. You can change the mood of a photograph by moving the temperature of the colors.-利用移動色彩的温度來改變相片的氣分。利用此有利條件
Think back to your elementary school art class where your teacher talked about warm colors like orange, red, and yellow. They convey a much different feeling than cool tints like blues and greens.
3. Change your perspective. 改變視野
Try to photograph things in a way that most people would overlook (and practice this as much as you can). It can dramatically change the perspective and depth of the image.- 拍攝大部分人所忽略的方法，它可以戲劇性地改變影像的景觀與深度
4. Spend time around places and people that inspire you to be a better photographer. 多花時間找會激發你成為更好攝影家的地點與人們
This one is really important. I’m drawn to expansive places like rolling prairies, the ocean, and Yosemite—places that force me to have a paradigm shift and remind me of how small we are. For me, spending time in the grandeur of a wild, open space is necessary to my creativity. Also, having the right crew to encourage you towards adventure is helpful.
5. Have fun, travel often, and take your camera everywhere.
多到處帶著相機走一走
A lot of my favorite imagery is really just from just being in the right place at the right time. It’s easier for me to feel good about what I’m shooting when I’m traveling and seeing something different and I feel like I have new eyes to a place. A change of scenery keeps me inspired to look at things differently.

文法淺釋系列 (86)
文法淺釋系列 (86)
文法(grammar)與句型(sentence patterns)
七. 助動詞 (Modal Auxiliary)
與詰問句 (Tag Question) :
3) It is imperative that proper action be
taken. (該採取適當行動)。
It is〔necessary, essential (必須的) indispensable (不可或缺), vital , ( 十分
重要) , imperative〕+ that + Subj. + (should)+
V (主動)
+ (should) + be + P.P.
(被動)
*〔此處 should (可省略)〕
以上句型表示說話者之
“堅持” 其後之動詞均含未來之義：
It is vital that he (should)
see a doctor at once. 他必須立刻去看醫生。
It is imperative that immediate measures be taken about
the evacuation. 迫切
需要，採取有關撤離問題之立即措施。比較：
*【Knowledge flourishes best in an atmosphere of free discussion;
and
in order to direct social policy wisely, it is necessary that there
should be
freedom to criticize existing institutions and to put
forward unpopular
opinions, no matter how offensive they may be to
prevailing
attitudes. 】
(在自由討論的氣分中，知識最蓬勃；同時為了明智地引導社會政策，
必須有批評時下制度，並且也可以提出一些冷僻看法的自由，無論這些
看法對於一般流行的作法如何具有攻擊性)。
4) It is a pity
that he should have insulted
me last night. (遺憾的是，他昨晚竟侮辱我)。
a. It is a pity (regrettable), strange,
….that + S. + should + V (表示現在或未來) ：
It is regrettable that he should say (or says) so. 遺憾他竟這麼說。
b. It is regrettable
that + S. + should have + P.P.
(表示過去已發生之事) ：
It is regrettable that he should
have died (或 died ) young. 遺憾他竟英才早逝 。
*以上should 含“加強語氣”；類似用法另如：
S+ see no reason why +S.
should +V.- 想不出竟……(與自己看法反)
“There is no character more
contemptible than a man that is
a fortune-hunter;
and I can see no reason
why fortune-hunting women should not be
contemptible,
too.”
追求財富的男人的品德是最可鄙的；可是我想不通，追求財富的婦女就不
可鄙。(contemptible
a.
可鄙的)
5)While living in the
country, Mr. Benson used to like
to do some
fishing. (住在鄉下時，Mr. Benson 一向喜歡垂釣)。
used to + v 與 would + (often )+ V 均表示某種過去的習慣：
When irritated, he would often speak dirty language.被激怒時，他過去一向
會說髒話。
I
used to work from dark
to dark at this job, and I was still broke. 從前我天未亮
即工作直到天黑，卻仍一文不名。
1但 used to like 是「過去一向喜歡」，而 would like 則是「現在一時喜歡」：
*Would you like
something to drink?
你
(現在) 想喝點什麼?
* Do you like something
to drink while you are reading? 平常讀書時你喜歡
喝點什麼 ?
Would you like
to talk to him in person?
你(現在)要親自和他談談
?
= Do you want to talk to him in
person?
〔注：Which
would you like to drink, tea or coffee? 〕** 答句不宜僅答Tea
或Coffee.
最好在選項名稱後加 please 以表示禮貌； 若拒絕時，應答：
No, (but) thank you.
2. 用於比較時，僅可用 used to ：
a. Ted is more diligent than he used to
be. (不可用would be)Ted 比從前更用心。
b. Mary handles problems as carefully as she
used to. (不可用would). Mary
處理難題時和過去一樣細心。

婚禮展露臀部?
Bridesmaids Showing Off Their Butts in Photos Is the Latest Wedding Trend
最近婚禮流行-在拍照時新娘伴娘局部或全部展露臀部
Nothing says romance like pulling up your dress and mooning a photographer. In the latest wedding picture trend, bridesmaids and brides are posing in photos with their derrieres on full or partial view.
We’re not sure when this trend started, or more importantly why, but it has certainly caught on with bridal parties looking for a way to spice up their photo albums.
Some people think the trend is innocent and amusing while others think it’s absurd. All we’re going to say is we definitely prefer this one over the creepy animal masks wedding trend from a couple of years ago.

「拜倒在石榴裙下」
「拜倒在石榴裙下」
小時候，在電視劇看到好幾次某男說自己拜倒在某女石榴裙下的說法，令我很不解，問大人們：「明明是布裙，為何叫石榴裙？石榴不是水果嗎？」
大人們有的傻眼，有的說：「石榴裙，應該指的是花裙子吧。」
中國人視石榴為吉祥物，暗含多子多福，婚嫁之時，常於新房案頭置放切開果皮、露出漿果的石榴，亦有以石榴相贈祝吉者。
