The early bird catches the worm. ‘ This tells us that we need to get up early and work hard. If you do this you will be rich and successful. OK. But my question is this: What about the early worm? 早起的鸟儿有虫吃。这句话告诉我们,我们应该早起床并且努力工作。如果你能做到这样,你就会变得成功富有。但是我有个问题:那么早起的虫子怎么办? ‘Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise. ‘ I think this is a way of saying that ‘clean living’ is the best way. I suppose it’s true! ‘The end justifies the means.’ If you have good intentions, then it’s OK to do things you would not normally do. Really? ‘Every man for himself.’ When trouble starts you must take care of yourself. It’s often used in a funny way these days. When you friend needs help you might joke “Sorry, it’s every man for himself, I’m afraid”. ‘Experience is the best teacher.’ We can learn by listening to others, by reading, and so on, but the best way to learn about something is by doing it. |
