Driver: Dont worry. Here we go.

乘坐出租车

旅客:出租车!

司机:先生,你好。你要去哪儿?

旅客:我得在7 点之前赶到机场,你能赶到吗?

司机:我尽力。请上车!

旅客:好的。到那里要多长时间?

司机:可能要50 分钟。不过现在是高峰期,交通拥挤。

旅客:我们怎样才能避免堵车呢?

司机:我们绕道而行,避开市中心,怎么样?

旅客:听起来不错!

司机:先生,请系好安全带。

旅客:哦,我差点儿忘记了。

司机:别担心,我们会赶到的。

经 典 释 疑

Here we go. 我们出发啦。here we go 的用法有两种:1) 鼓舞型,一般有点打气的味道,比如,大家约定要做某件事并决定开始做了,就来一句“Here we go”,意思是“好,开工了,大家好好干啊”。2)泄气型:比如你刚刚坐过山车,坐得头晕眼花,你的朋友一定要你陪他再坐一次,你可以叹道“Here we go again”。

    觉醒:The Awakening(英文朗读版)

    Kate Chopin (1850–1904) was an American author of short stories and novels based in Louisiana. She is now considered by some scholars to have been a forerunner of American 20th-century feminist authors of Southern or Catholic background, such as Zelda nuoha.com Awakening was first published in 1899. Set in New Orleans and on the Louisiana Gulf coast at the end of the 19th century. It is widely seen as a landmark work of early feminism, generating a mixed reaction from contemporary readers and critics. The novel's blend of realistic narrative, incisive social commentary, and psychological complexity makes The Awakening a precursor of American modernist literature; it prefigures the works of American novelists such as William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway and echoes the works of contemporaries such as Edith Wharton and Henry James. Chopin did not write another novel after The Awakening and had difficulty publishing stories after its release. When she died five years later, she was on
