(单词翻译)

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

语音讲解:

今日发音练习重点:

1. behind /bɪˈhaɪnd/ 包含易错音组/aɪn/;

2. tiny /ˈtaɪni/ 双元音要发饱满,滑动要十足;

3. 注意区分matter和tiny的第一个元音。

言之有物:

1. 词链儿:lie ahead 在前面/ lie behind 在后面

The hardest part of the competition still lies ahead of us.

比赛最艰难的阶段还在前面呢。

...and guide him through the dark places that lie ahead.

引领他穿越途中的黑暗。

...and said ,"The answer lie behind a red door."

说“真相隐藏在红门之后”。

当做一个整体,看作大的名词:

what lies behind us → 字面含义:在我们身后的 → 过去;已成过往的

what lies before us → 字面含义:在我们前方的 → 未来;将要直面的

what lies within us → 字面含义:在我们心里的 → 深埋于内心的

A blank and empty future lay before me.

我的未来是一片茫然和空白。

2. tiny matters 小事儿

tiny adj. =extremely small 极小的,微小的

And then there's the tiny matter of the fifty pounds you owe1 me.

还有件小事儿,你欠我五十英镑呢。
