去听最爱的乐队现场吧。感受那种气氛、那种时尚、那种小众的文化,在广阔的场地上,和大伙儿们一起享受其中。
2. Buy Dinner for Your Parents.
请父母吃顿饭
Your parents may have been funding[‘fʌndiŋ] your life for years, so now you can experience the joy of repaying their kindness, love, and responsibility[rispa:nsə’biləti], and of developing[di’veləpiŋ] an adult relationship with them. Taking them out for dinner, and picking up the bill, is one of the ways of doing this.
你的父母也许已资助你生活了许多年,所以现在是该对他们的善意、爱、责任进行甜蜜回报的时候了。同时,这也是与他们建立成年人间的关系的时刻。带他们出去吃顿好的,你来买单——这绝对是个好主意。
3. Travel to Another Continent[ika:ntinənt]
出国旅行
Traveling, with the exposure[ik’spoʒə(r)] to different climes[ klaimz ], cultures, and peoples, broadens[‘brɔ:dn] the mind, helps develop life skills, and makes for more open attitudes[‘ætitu:d] and tolerance[‘ta:lərəns]. However open-minded you are, there’s nothing like experiencing a different way of life firsthand. It also furnishes[‘fə:rniʃ] you with some great dinner party stories!
旅行意味着体验别种气候、文化和人民,能拓宽视野、帮你学习新的生存技巧,及磨练你的态度及耐心。无论你是否思想开放,没什么比去尝试一种全新生活更棒的体验方式了。更不用说,一次旅行能给你增加许多在派对上的谈资哟!
4. Try an Adrenaline[ə'drenəlin] Sport.
尝试一种刺激的运动
You could try sky diving, white water rafting or bungee jumping. Pushing your comfort zone and trying something like this may terrify[‘terəfai] you, but you’ll feel immensely[‘imensli] proud of overcoming your fear.
比如跳伞、漂流或蹦极!也许这些把你推出舒适区的运动让你觉得有些恐惧,但很快你将为自己的突破而感到自豪无比!
