tricky~~~ kind of difficult~~
回覆刪除what do you think?
意思好像是說：你看見事物時，總是問"為什麼?"
而我卻夢到"things that never were"，所以問"為什麼不？"
這片段指的應是什麼呢？？
主題是與"想像"有關，所以需琢磨琢磨～～
是指："事物從來就不是它們原本的樣子"????
我本來是想翻成：
你看見事物時，總是問"為什麼？"
而我卻夢到事實不然，所以問"為什麼不？"
老師您覺得呢？？
還有另一種可能性
回覆刪除因為主題與"想像"有關
所以things that never were
也有可能指的是 "從未存在的事物"
因"從未存在的事物"是需靠"想像力"想像出來的
所以到底是哪個比較接近作者的想法呢？
如果能討論一下，會很有趣～～

The theme "Imagine" reminds me of a famous English song written by John Lennon, a well-known member of Beatles.
回覆刪除Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
The world are so familiar with the song; however, few of the people know where his inspiration came from. The article mentioned that, in fact, the song was inspired from a poem written by John Lennon's Japanese wife, Yoko Ono. The poem started with the sentence “Imagine a raindrop, imagine a goldfish." Yoko Ono once said in an interview that, “When I was a child in Japan during the Second World War, my brother and I were terribly hungry. I imagined delicious menus for him, and he began to smile. If you think something is impossible, you can imagine it and make it happen."
It is the sentence “If you think something is impossible, you can imagine it and make it happen” that expresses the true essence of “ imagine”.
Through imagination, the impossible seems possible; the non-exist seems physical, which is the power of imagination.
