很多事过多的干预是不好的,比如学习英语应该是一个很自然的过程,首先要像婴儿一样聆听和咿呀学语,而不应是机械性的用词汇和语法来干预学习过程,生活中要顺其自然的事情更多,那我们应该怎么用英语去表达呢?来听听Joy and Chris的讲解吧!
C: Hi guys. I’m Chris.
J: And I’m Joy. Our idiom for today is: take its course. It means something develops in the natural or usual way without being changed or stopped. You can use this idiom when you want something to happen on its own with no interference from other people or other things.
C: Sometimes, not doing anything is the best solution. Like when you have a minor illness, sometimes it’s better to give your body a chance to fight it off. Taking the medicine right away will just lower your immune system. So you can say: I’m gonna let the sickness take its course. Or maybe your company is pushing out a new product. Your team has done everything to promote this product. All you can do now is to sit back and wait for the market to take its course. Now we are gonna use this idiom in a conversation:
J: What are you watching, Josh?
C: Oh I just stumbled upon a video of a group of lions attacking a little elephant. Wow, It’s brutal.
J: Geez. The people shooting the video couldn’t help the elephant a little bit?
C: Well I think it’s better to let nature take its course and not interfere. Survival of the fittest you know.
J: Are you letting your English practice take its course? Sometimes it’s better to just do it and not think about it too much.
C: Exactly. And if you enjoy our content, remember to share it with people you know! Talk to you next time! Bye!
immune system: 免疫系统
stumble upon: 偶然发现
survival of the fittest: 适者生存
