瘋狂英語口語絕招脫口而出經(jīng)典Where there is...there is...
094. Where there is... there is...
哪兒有……哪兒就有……
[句型解析]
我們都知道“有志者事竟成”這個(gè)成語，但你知不知道和它對應(yīng)的英語是怎么說的呢？其實(shí)也很簡單，那就是“Where there is a will , there is a way.”意思是有決心，有毅力的人總能找到方法去實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的理想。這里的“will”是名詞，意為“決心，意志”。句中的結(jié)構(gòu)“Where there is...there is...”就是我們常說的“哪兒有……哪兒就有……”。
[實(shí)例]
1. Where there are difficulties, there are ways to get over them.
哪兒有困難, 哪兒就有解決問題的方法。
2. Where there is opposition, there are rebellions.
哪兒有壓迫, 哪兒就有反抗。
3. Where there is contact, there is friction.
哪兒有接觸，哪兒就有摩擦。
4. Where there are women, there are jealousy and suspicion.
哪兒有女人，哪兒就有嫉妒和懷疑。
5. Where there is a will, there is a way.
有志者事竟成。
