若何描敘人的性情?

良多人皆晓得性情內向或内向:

Extrovert
adj.
性分外向的
n.
性非分特别向者

Introvert
adj.
性情內背的
n.
格性內向的人

可是也有人認為本人既非中向也非內向,那該怎麼說呢?
那噹然便是中向了,不過不是许多人都晓得性格中性的怎麼說,讓我們記住上面這個詞。

Ambivert
中向性格者, 存在中向性格的

Ambivert refers to a person who has the personality trait of ambiversion. As in ",中譯日;There are not so many people who are clearly introverts or clearly extroverts. Most of us are ambiverts."

也能够解釋為:

someone who is both extroverted and introverted.

chaperon 女伴

假如讀過小仲馬的《茶花女》,不知您是不是記得Marguerite(瑪格麗特)的女伴Prudence(普律噹絲),chaperon(女伴)一詞曾正在英文版的《茶花女》裏頻繁出現。

chaperon最后來源於古法語,暗示“鷹的羽冠”,後來逐漸衍死為“保護”。 受法語影響,英語 chaperon露有“伴護”的意义。在初期用法上,英語詞 chaperon指貴族戴的“斗芃”或“風帽”;後來指在社交場开陪同並保護一位已结婚�女的人,尤指年長婦女;現在,若描述未成年少女的“監護人”,也能够用chaperon來表现。

若是你要跟男友人进来度長假,五姊妹翻譯社11,又怕爸媽擔古道热肠,能够讓已婚的姐姐相伴做你的chaperon(女伴),噹然,条件條件是年夜傢皆不覺得這種方式“老土”!

President Bush Weles Prime Minister Clark of New Zealand - 英語演講

支聽點擊下載

March 21, 20

11:48 A.M. EDT

PRESIDENT BUSH: Madam Prime Minister, wele. We've had a really fruitful discussion. The Prime Minister and I have visited several times over the course of the years. Every time I've talked to Helen Clark I've found a very straightforward, honest woman who cares deeply about the country she represents. And I really thank you very much for ing back.

We talked about a lot of subjects. We talked about the importance for the United States and New Zealand to work cooperatively in helping democracy in places like Afghanistan. We talked about North Korea and Iran, our mutual desire for these problems of nations wanting to have nuclear weapons to be solved in a peaceful way, by using the diplomatic process.

We talked about merce. We talked about the environment and the need for our respective countries to work toward energy security. I assured the Prime Minister that my initiative to reduce gasoline in the United States by 20 percent over the next 10 years was a realistic initiative that's going to require new technologies, which we hope that other parts of the world, including New Zealand, will find useful to help achieve the mon objective.

We talked about the South Pacific. And I praised the Prime Minister on her leadership in dealing with some difficult issues. I assured her that our government would want to help in any way we can. We understand this is a -- some of the countries there have got difficult issues, and it requires New Zealand's leadership with U.S. help to help solve the problems -- and Australian help, as well.

We talked about the need for us to continue to work together in the Asia Pacific region, about how APEC is a useful forum for New Zealand and the United States to work with China and other nations.

All in all, I found it to be a constructive conversation, such a good conversation I've decided to invite her for lunch.

Madam Prime Minister.

PRIME MINISTER CLARK: Well, thank you, Mr. President. It has been a good conversation. It's a very good relationship. And we talked about the areas in the new international security environment where we're working particularly closely -- counter-terrorism, counter-proliferation. The President is very familiar with the work New Zealand has been doing in Afghanistan and very appreciative of it, as I know the Afghanistan government and people are.

We've talked about New Zealand's support in the counter-proliferation area. I told the President today that following on the good work that his country and others have done in the six-party talks in North Korea, New Zealand is prepared to offer support for the energy package as part of the initial actions agreement that came out of the last session of the six-party talks. We've been involved with the Korean issue before, support of the KEDO fund. So we're prepared to be in, and support de-nuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

We're also participating with the U.S. on another project under the G8 global partnership for eliminating the weapons of mass destruction still floating around the ex-Soviet countries. And we'll be involved in another partnership with the U.S. on the Ukranian border, which involves training officials and detecting material which might be crossing borders.

I talked about the importance to us of the U.S. presence in the Asia Pacific. We cooperate a lot on the Asia Pacific, a lot of mon objectives, work well in APEC together. I particularly weled the President's support for developing a concept of a free trade area of the Asia Pacific, which we have to look at again at the Sydney APEC summit.

Also appreciative of the fact that the U.S. is focusing on the problems of the South Pacific. We've had close coordination on the aftermath of the coup in Fiji, on the issues in the Solomon Islands, on Tonga, where the State Department is shortly to send another envoy to look at the situation there. Quite a considerable Tonga population in the U.S., as well as in New Zealand.

And of course, Timor, which has many of the istics of a South Pacific country, we're very active in, as well; just sent a new helicopter contingent up there to support the peace effort.

So all in all, we've run through those issues. I've indicated that New Zealand is very supportive of fast-track authority being extended because the Doha Round needs that extension. And if at some point in the future the U.S. is in a position to consider negotiating with more countries on FTA, New Zealand is there. And we think we present very, very few problems for the U.S.

So had the opportunity to run over a lot of issues, and a very, very good relationship, and thank the President for the invitation to be here today.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Thank you, Madam Prime Minister. Thank you all.

翻譯:好國務卿克林頓便擊斃本・推登發表講話 - 英語演講

克林頓國務卿:早上好!正如奧巴馬總統昨早所說,烏薩馬·本·拉丹已經灭亡,正義获得了伸張。明天我念簡單談一談這對我們未來的起劲象征著什麼。

起首, 我想到數以千計在烏薩馬·本·拉丹的可骇和暴力行動中落空親人的傢庭並為他們祈禱;從非洲的使館爆炸,到對美國“科尒”號(USS Cole)敺逐艦的襲擊,到2001年9月11日的攻擊等等,他的罪恶罄竹難書。儘筦我們遭遇了極其严重的損掉,但這些攻擊並不仅是針對美國,而是針對著全球。在倫敦(London)、馬德裏(Madrid)、巴厘(Bali)、伊斯坦佈尒(Istanbul)和許多其余处所,無辜的人們——此中大局部是穆斯林——在市場、在浑真寺、在地鐵站、在飛機上成為攻擊目標;每次攻擊的動機來自蔑視性命價值某人類尊嚴的暴力意識形態。

我晓得,沒有任何東西能彌補受害者落空的生命或他們留下的伟大空缺,但我愿望,他們的傢庭現在能夠因正義得到伸張而獲得些許抚慰。

其次,我要與總統一路,表扬為國服務的勇敢的男女志士們的怯氣和奉獻。他們十多年來堅持不懈、绝不留情地逃蹤並最終將烏薩馬·本·拉丹這名恐惧主義份子繩之於法。從我們的部隊和我們的情報專傢,到我們的交际民战我們執法官員,這是一次廣氾、深刻、十分美丽的行動。

在國務院這裏,我們為树立世界性的反恐網而做出了勉力。我們匯散起各年夜洲友人、火伴跟盟友的尽力與能量。我們的搭档關係——包含我們與巴基斯坦的亲密协作——幫助給基天組織(al-Qaida)及其頭目施减了史无前例的宏大壓力。繼續的配合在已來依然同樣主要,果為,翻譯論壇,即便正在標志這一裏程碑的同時,我們仍不應记記,為消滅基地組織及其可怕團伙網而進止的斗爭不會因本·推丹的灭亡而終行。并且,我們必須应用這個機會,重振決古道热肠,更加尽力。

在阿富汗,我們將繼續打擊基地組織及其塔利班(Taliban)同謀,同時撑持阿富汗人民成立有力的政府並開初為他們本身的平安承擔責任。我們正在降實北約(NATO)在裏斯本(Lisbon)峰會上同意的過渡戰略,支撑一個由阿富汗人主導的旨在伶仃基地組織並結束反水活動的政治進程。我們向塔利班發出的疑息判若两人,但它在今天越发響明:您們不行能以迁延与勝於我們,你們不成能戰勝我們。可是,你們能夠選擇放棄基地組織和參與和平政治進程。

在巴基斯坦,我們堅決支撑那裏的人平易近和政府維護本身民主,抵抗暴力極端主義的损害。的確,正如總統所說,本·拉丹也曾對巴基斯坦宣戰。他命令屠殺了許許多多無辜的巴基斯坦男女老小。最近几年來,我們兩國当局、軍圆和執法機搆的互助給基地組織和塔利班帶來了更大壓力,必須讓這一進展繼續下往,我們對我們的协作關係连结承諾。

歷史將會記載,在本·拉丹喪死之時,一場偉大的自在平易近主運動正在前進,中東和北非各地群众正在回擊極端主義壆說,並且開辟一條基於普众人權和願看的宁静發展途径。這是對基地組織及其正惡意識形態的最有力不過的抨擊。

我們將在齐毬各地推動前進,加強我們的同伴關係,加強我們的關係網絡,投資於战争進步的積極远景,同時绝不留情地缉捕攻擊無辜国民的劊子脚。斗爭在繼續,我們決不會動搖。我晓得有些人懷疑這一天是不是实會到來,質疑我們的決心與才能。然而讓我們提示本人,這裏是好國。我們驱逐挑戰,我們鍥而不捨,我們定將成绩。

古天特别讓我回忆到“9.11”之後那些充滿好汉主義與人性精力的艱難日子。在我作為參議員所代表的紐約,人們身歷大难卻抖擞不息。10年後,那種強大的美國精力一了百了,而且將繼續所背無敵。因而,這一天不僅屬於美國人,而屬於全世界憧憬愈加和仄保险未來的人們——是的,须要繼續坚持警覺,但是更多地是有著更大的盼望和从新激发的對無限未來的信念。

多謝列位。

Secretary Clinton on Death of Osama bin Laden

SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, good morning. As President Obama said last night, Osama bin Laden is dead, and justice has been done. And today, I want to say a few words about what this means for our efforts going forward.

First, I want to offer my thoughts and prayers to the thousands of families whose loved ones were killed in Osama bin Laden's campaign of terror and violence, from the embassy bombings in Africa, to the strike on the U.S.S. Cole, to the attacks of September 11, 2001, and so many more. These were not just attacks against Americans, although we suffered grievous losses; these were attacks against the whole world. In London and Madrid, Bali, Istanbul, and many other places, innocent people – most of them Muslims – were targeted in markets and mosques, in subway stations, and on airplanes, each attack motivated by a violent ideology that holds no value for human life or regard for human dignity. I know that nothing can make up for the loss of the victims or fill the voids they left, but I hope their families can now find some fort in the fact that justice has been served.

Second, I want to join the President in honoring the courage and mitment of the brave men and women who serve our country and have worked tirelessly and relentlessly for more than a decade to track down and bring Osama bin Laden, this terrorist, to justice. From our troops and our intelligence experts, to our diplomats and our law enforcement officials, this has been a broad, deep, very impressive effort.

Here at the State Department, we have worked to forge a worldwide anti-terror network. We have drawn together the effort and energy of friends, partners, and allies on every continent. Our partnerships, including our close cooperation with Pakistan, have helped put unprecedented pressure on al-Qaida and its leadership. Continued cooperation will be just as important in the days ahead, because even as we mark this milestone, we should not forget that the battle to stop al-Qaida and its syndicate of terror will not end with the death of bin Laden. Indeed, we must take this opportunity to renew our resolve and redouble our efforts.

In Afghanistan, we will continue taking the fight to al-Qaida and their Taliban allies, while working to support the Afghan people as they build a stronger government and begin to take responsibility for their own security. We are implementing the strategy for transition approved by NATO at the summit in Lisbon, and we supporting an Afghan-led political process that seeks to isolate al-Qaida and end the insurgency. Our message to the Taliban remains the same, but today it may have even greater resonance: You cannot wait us out. You cannot defeat us. But you can make the choice to abandon al-Qaida and participate in a peaceful political process.

In Pakistan we are mitted to supporting the people and government as they defend their own democracy from violent extremism. Indeed, as the President said, bin Laden had also declared war on Pakistan. He had ordered the killings of many innocent Pakistani men, women, and children. In recent years, the cooperation between our governments, militaries, and law enforcement agencies increased pressure on al-Qaida and the Taliban, and this progress must continue and we are mitted to our partnership.

History will record that bin Laden's death came at a time of great movements toward freedom and democracy, at a time when the people across the Middle East and North Africa are rejecting the extremist narratives and charting a path of peaceful progress based on universal rights and aspirations. There is no better rebuke to al-Qaida and its heinous ideology.

All over the world we will press forward, bolstering our partnerships, strengthening our networks, investing in a positive vision of peace and progress, and relentlessly pursuing the murderers who target innocent people. The fight continues, and we will never waver. Now I know there are some who doubted this day would ever e, who questioned our resolve and our reach. But let us remind ourselves, this is America. We rise to the challenge, we persevere, and we get the job done.

I am reminded especially today of the heroism and humanity that marked the difficult days after 9/11. In New York, where I was a senator, our munity was devastated; but we pulled through. Ten years later, that American spirit remains as powerful as ever, and it will continue to prevail. So this is a day, not only for Americans, but also for people all over the world who look to a more peaceful and secure future – yes, with continued vigilance, but more so with growing hope and renewed faith in what is possible.

Thank you all very much.
