常用句子一：
　　1、 I don’t ever want to have the effect on a person that this person had on me, where i was just blown away by disappointment. It took a few years to get over it.
　　这个句子中重点解析的是"ever"的意思。
　　翻译为：我甚至从未想过要给"给我留下印象的人"留下印象，在这一点上我感到十分失望。我用了许多年才克服这个毛病。
　　ever,在否定句中起加强语气的作用，not ever从未。
　　2、One thing I do is work with Make-A-wish. If an ill child’s one wish to see a celebrity and he picks me, then I make time to see him. But I have to be very careful with these kids, because if you get too attached, you’re just setting yourself up for loss.
　　这个句子中重点解析的是" because if you get too attached, you’re just setting yourself up for loss."的意思。
　　翻译为：我做的一件事就是带着许愿做事。如果一个病了的孩子的愿望是想看一个名瓦并且他选择的是我，然后我抽出时间去看望他。但是我必须非常小心的跟这些孩子相处，因为如果你太依恋，你会感到不舍。
　　because if you get too attached, you’re just setting yourself up for loss.因为如果你太依恋，你会感到不舍。
　　其中attch是：使喜爱，使依恋：因情感因素，如爱戴或忠诚使联结。
　　set oneself up for loss是引起自己处于受损失或失去的状态。
　　3、Thank you for giving me the inspiration to stick around, at age 50, you have to feel you’re contributing to something.
　　这个句子中重点解析的是" you have to feel you’re contributing to something."
　　翻译为：谢谢你给我关于等待的启示，在50岁时，你必须感到你正在做贡献。
　　"you have to fell you’re contributing to something"这句话的意思就是：在50岁时，你必须感到你正在对某些事情做贡献。
　　4、We stayed at the Ritz-Carlton and just had a blast. Or I’ll give everybody a ride in the Ultra light-it’s a flying kite.
　　这个句子中重点解析的是"ride"在这里怎么翻译。
　　翻译为：我们待在Ritz-Carlton并开了个狂欢会。否则我会给每个人乘坐一下"超轻型"——一个飞行的风筝。
　　ride就是乘坐。
　　5、"One day I’ll have my own barbecue." In other words, every generation gets to improve on the dreams of the last generation.
　　翻译为："有朝一日，我将拥有自己的烤肉(比喻:实现自己的梦想)。换句话说，每代人必须在他上代人的梦想上有所提高。
　　6、But it came with a price because when he was drinking, we had jobs and money. When he quit, we traded alcoholism for being dirt-poor.
　　这个句子中重点解析的是"we traded alcoholism for being dirt-poor."这句话的真正含义。
　　翻译为：但是这有一定的代价：因为当他饮酒的时候，我们有工作和工钱。当他戒酒了，我们就只有借酒消愁穷困潦倒了。
　　we traded alcoholism
　　for being dirt-poor：其中的trade sth. for sth.以……和……交易,以酗酒和穷困潦倒交易。
　　7、It got so bad that he either quit or got fired.
　　这个句子中重点解析的是"so……that"在此句中的意义。
　　翻译为：一般so……that是如此……以至于……的意思，这里上下句不是因果关系: 变得糟糕的是，他既没有辞职也没有被解雇。后半句that he either quit or got fired是so bad的补充状语从句，补充说明so bad的细节，不要太拘泥语法结构，更应该注重的是：1.英语语序特征，2.英语国家的人的逻辑思维特征。
　　8、He was a tool pusher essentially, sold drill bits to oil-drilling companies.
　　翻译为：他其实是一个工具推销者，卖钻头给开采石油的公司。
　　9、I never think that I ’m doing eight-minute cures on television. But I think that 50 percent of the solution to any problem lies in defining it first. I can be an emotional compass that points them down the path.
　　这个句子中重点解析的是"cures"与"lies in"的意思，另外 "point……down"是词组吗?
　　翻译为：我从未想过我在用电视做一个8分钟的治疗。但是我认为任何问题50%的解决方法在于先界定它。我可能是沿着路径指向它们的情感罗盘(指南针)。
　　cure：名词，治疗。point和后面的down可以认为没有关系，这里不是词组，down这里的意思是"沿着"，相当于along.down the path是介宾结构词组，在句中作points them的补充状语。
　　建议：不要从语法分析着手来学习英语，因为这样效果很差。最好是提高阅读量，让一切语法变为理所当然的事情，让记忆单词成为阅读时的副产品。
　　常用句子二：
　　1、You can tell they lived during the Depression.
　　这个句子中"tell"是断定的意思，常常把它的意思与(告知、告诉)联系在一起，脑子便转不过弯来。
　　翻译为： 你可以断定他们生活在那时的大萧条期。
　　2、He reallv knows how to bring a person out.
　　"bring a person out."是"鼓励一个人的"的意思。
　　翻译为：他非常善于鼓励别人/使别人振作起来。

I.英文书信写作的五项基本原则
　　这五项基本原则是：consideration, conciseness, clarity, courtesy, correctness。即：体贴、简明、清晰、礼貌、正确。
II.英文书信的结构
　　1. 信头(Heading)：包括写信人地址和写信日期。位置在信笺的右上角。地址从小到大，按单位换行，比如第一行写门牌号和街道，第二行写城市和省(州)，第三行写国家和邮政编码。日期按照下列格式：June 1,2000(美国)，1 June,2000(英国)。
　　2. 封内地址(Inside Address)：如果是比较正式的信函，信笺上还要写上对收信人的称呼和他的地址。它一般位于信头的下方，信笺的左边顶格的位置。
　　3.称呼(salutation)：封内地址低两行，靠左边顶格自成一行。如果是公函，则称呼对方的职位，如果是一般朋友则可称呼为My dear XX，如果是比较熟悉的朋友则可以用Dear XX。
　　4. 正文(The body)：有什么写什么即可。但注意五项基本原则。
　　5.结尾词和签名(Complmentary close and Signature)：一般信函的结尾词用Yours sincerely/truely/faithfully)。如果是公函则以Yours respectfully结尾为多。亲密一些的私人信件则可以根据情况以Yours ever/ affectionaely，love,等结尾。
　　结尾词下方要求手写签名，手写签名下方打印签名。
　　6. 附件和再启(Enclosure and Postscript)
　　如果有附件，则可以按照这样的格式写：Enclosure: XXX。如果有另外的事情需要补充，则可以用P.S.开头，表示“又启，又及”的意思。
　　7. 信封的格式(superscription)：写信人的姓名地址位于信封左上角(或信封背面中上方)。收信人的姓名地址位于信封中央或偏右。
　　8. 收转：在收信人姓名下方写上收转人的姓名，并在前面写上c/o字样
