兴趣interest[英]['ɪntrəst] [美][ˈɪntrɪst, -tərɪst, -ˌtrɛst] 中英文小故事：兴趣和好奇 亨利•福特在学校里常常心不在焉。有一天，他和一个小朋友把一块手表拆开了。老师很生气,让他们放学后留下来，把表修好才能回家。当时这位老师并不知道小福特的天才。只用了十分钟，这位机械奇才就把手表修好，走在回家的路上了。 福特对各种东西的工作原理总是很感兴趣。曾有一次，他把茶壶嘴用东西堵住，然后把茶壶放在火炉上，他便站在一边等候着看会出现什么情况。当然，水开后变成了水蒸气。因为水蒸气无处逸出，茶壶便爆炸了，因而打碎了一面镜子和一扇窗户。这个小发明家也被严重地烫伤了。 多年后，福特的好奇心和他的动手能力使他得到了回报。他曾经梦想着去制造一辆无马行进的车。他造成了一辆这样的车后，运输界发生了永久性的变化。 Interest and Curiosity Henry Ford didn’t always pay attention in school. One day, he and a friend took a vatch apart. Angry and upset，the teacher told him both to stay after school. Their punishment was to stay until they had fixed the watch. But the teacher did not know young Ford’s genius. In ten minutes, this mechanical wizard had repaired the watch li and was on this way home. Ford was always interested in how things worked. He once plugged up the spout of a teapot and placed it on the fire. Then he waited to see what would happen. The water boiled and，of course，turned to steam. Since the steam had no way to escape， the teapot exploded. The explosion cracked a mirror and broke a window. The young inventor was badly scalded. Ford’s year of curiosity and tinkering paid off. He dreamed of a horseless carriage. When he built one，the world of transportation was changed forever. 中英文例句 1. I've lost interest in life. 我对生活已经失去兴趣了。 2. What of rising interest rates elsewhere? 那么其他地区的升息呢？ 3. Obama's interest is another matter. 奥巴马的利益关切就是另一回事了。 4. I have a different interest. 我的兴趣不在于此。 5. That is an interest we share. 这是我们的共同利益。 |
