活动预告 | Colorful Winter
Although there’re a few festivals in winter,
winter is the season which is full of
the atmosphere of festival.
Last month,
you just took part in the Halloween activity
in our English Corner
However,
Christmas is coming soon,
and a lot of malls
have been decorated with
many beautiful Christmas trees.
How time flies！
Most people have begun to plan
how to spend New Year’s Eve recently
and look forward to
spending a week in hometown
during the Spring Festival.
Perhaps it’s the end of the year,
all the good and bad emotions
are piling up,
so we long for a different warm winter.
但确实是节日氛围最浓厚的一个季节
不久之前大家都还参加英语角的
万圣节主题活动
一转眼就已经能看到
圣诞树在各个商场里"扎根"了
大伙儿开始商量着跨年要怎么过
憧憬着回老家过农历新年的那一周时间
或许是因为年底
不论好坏的所有情绪积压在一起
才让我们这么期待
一个温暖的冬日吧
When the temperature drops,
we want to get close to
all the warm things
in two aspects of body and mind.
It’s getting colder,
let us return to
the essence of Christmas-
A sense of belonging to warmth.
温度低的时候
人们的生理和心理似乎都会
不自觉的向温暖的一切靠近
眼看着天气越来越冷
一起回到圣诞节的“本质”
对温暖的归属感
For example,
I felt warm after watching
2018 Christmas commercial
by John Lewis
比如看完John Lewis 2018年圣诞广告后
就真情实感地被“暖”到了
（John Lewis：英国著名百货商场）
This video,
less than 3minutes,
not only represents
the prelude of Christmas,
but also sends the warmth to
the audience who behind the screens.
And lots of people
left their comments,
saying the commercial
just is a gift, too.
不到3分钟的一支视频
不仅标志着圣诞季的开幕
也能为屏幕前的观众送去满满的暖意
甚至有不少人评价说
John Lewis的圣诞广告本身就是一件礼物
As the saying in the end,
Some gifts are more than just a gift,
you will never know that
you send a gift to someone,
which could change his own life.
就像短片最后浮现的那句话：
“Some gifts are more than just a gift”
你不会知道送出的某一件礼物
或许就是可以改变他人人生轨迹的“纪念品”
It’s because of this commercial that
it’s reaching into people’s hearts,
at the same time
I also found a few things that
we felt warm in winter,
such as the colors.
正是因为这个广告
它触碰到人们内心的深处
就在同时我也发现了
在冬日里面被暖到的“二三事”
好比
颜色
Here is something about the colors.
The falling snow overnight is just like
the blooming of thousands of pear trees
brought by the spring breeze.
忽如一夜春风来，千树万树梨花开
These Chinese proverbs
perfectly describe
how the Forbidden City stunning
is when it’s snowy.
Especially,
the red walls and green trees
add radiance and beauty
to each other in winter.
However,
the red walls and green bricks
experienced the wind and storm
and did not fall
with the baptism of history.
Seeing the pictures,
no one will not be astonished.
Thus,
red always brings vital force to
everything in winter.
这句诗贴切地形容了
茫茫大雪中故宫的惊艳
尤其是冬日里红墙绿树
交相辉映
然而
红墙青砖久经风雨
在历史的洗礼中屹立不倒
因为
红色总是在冬日里带来无限生机
GOLD
Nature’s first green is gold,
her hardest hue to hold.
大自然的第一抹新绿是金,
也是她最无力保留的颜色
It’s from Nothing Gold Can Stay
written by American poet
Robert Frost,
which means good things
are precious as gold,
but are hard to hold.
So does the warm sun in winter.
Since winter is cold
and everything is shining in the sun,
the sun is charming.
Gold means nobility,
honour, also passionate.
这句诗来自美国诗人罗伯特·弗罗斯特的
《Nothing Gold Can Stay》
寓意着美好的事物就如黄金一样珍贵
并且难以保留
冬日的暖阳也是如此
因为寒冷
太阳出来后万物闪烁着光芒
使得冬天的太阳如此迷人
金色意味着高贵，荣耀
更是激情四射
It's not the lack of beauty in life,
but the lack of the eyes
to find the beauty.
There’re various special colors in winter
waiting for you to find.
And according to the colors,
our EC will hold a relative activity,
which aims to bring you
a moment of joy in this cold winter.
生活不缺少美
只是缺少发现美的眼睛
冬天里面还有很多不一样的颜色
等着大家来发现
然后根据这些颜色
我们英语角会举行一个
以“暖情冬日”为主题的大型活动
希望给你在冬日带来片刻的欢乐
