Good intentions are worthless unless they lead to good actions.


语音讲解:

今日发音练习重点:

1. worthless / unless 两词虽都包含less,但发音不同

2. lead 作“指引”时元音为/i:/;作“铅”时元音为/e/

言之有物:

1. intention 意图、想法、初衷

good intention 好的意图、想法

Good intention alone is not enough.

光有好的意愿还不够。

It is a very foolish gesture, made under the guise of a good intention.

(词链儿:under the guise of XX 在XX的伪装下)

这示意很愚蠢,还伪装成好意。

A mere expression of good intention does not mean that the man is doing the right thing.

只是表现出好意不代表他在做好事。

动词:intend 打算、计划

用法:intend to do something 打算做某事

I don't intend to.../It's not my intention to... 我并不打算...

I've no intention of changing my plans just to fit in with his.

(词链儿:have no intention of... 没有...的计划)

(词链儿:fit in with XX 迎合/适应XX)

我没打算为了迎合他的计划,而改变自己的计划。

He's full of good intentions, but he never does anything about them!

他好想法很多,但从没实践过。

My intentions were good.

我的初衷是好的。


The Nolan Foundation, despite their good intentions...

尽管Nolan基金会是出于好意...
