雅思基本功训练之used to的用法

2008-12-07 
概念解释:某些时候,为了强调某一点,或者是在特定的句型结构中,我们需要使用倒装句,即:把句子的谓语(2)和主语(1)倒换一下位置。多数情况下,使用倒装句的场合是在某些否定词或only等放在句子最前面时。

  Part VI:快速阅读
  Trying out(尝试) Something New
  When people become good at doing the things they like, they find themselves.
  Many young people are good at doing things they do not like and many others would like to do something at wich they are not good. Also, many do not think they are good at anything and do not know what they would like to do. None of them are happy.
  It’s impossible to decide whether one likes something until one has tried it. Trying something new is important.
  Give each idea a fair chance. If you have decided to try out(尝试)something new, also decided how long you will stick to(坚持)it, then you can make a fair(公正的)decision.
  The best thing to judge(评判)is not the final goal(最终的目标), but the work it takes you to achieve(取得)the goal. Almost everyone would like to be highly skilled in(在某方面技术高超)something, but becoming highly skilled at anything needs a great deal of time and effort.
  Finding oneself means not only discovering what one is good at and what one likes; it also means discovering what one is not good at and does not like.
  So trying something and failing can have its good side. It tells you that you are not fit for that field and should not use it as your goal.
