一項(xiàng)意想不到的任務(wù)的雙語(yǔ)美文欣賞

　　In a class I teach for adults, I recently did the “unpardonable.”

　　最近在我執(zhí)教的一個(gè)成人班級(jí)里，我干了一件“不可饒恕的”事情。

　　I gave the class homework!考試大論壇

　　我居然給班上的學(xué)生布置了一份家庭作業(yè)!

　　The assignment was to “go to someone you love within the next week and tell them you love them.

　　任務(wù)是“下周之內(nèi)要走到你所愛(ài)的人面前，告訴他們你愛(ài)他。

　　It has to be someone you have never said those words to before

　　此人必須是一位此前你從未對(duì)之說(shuō)過(guò)此話的對(duì)象，

　　or at least haven't shared those words with for a long time.”

　　或至少很久沒(méi)有與他們交流過(guò)這些愛(ài)意盎然的話語(yǔ)了�！�

　　Now that doesn t sound like a very tough assignment, until you stop to realize that most of the men were over 35

　　聽(tīng)起來(lái)這不像是一份苛刻的.任務(wù)，直到你意識(shí)到這個(gè)班里多數(shù)男生已年逾35歲。

　　and were raised in the generation of men that were taught that expressing emotions is not “macho.”

　　何況在他們成長(zhǎng)的那個(gè)年代，他們受到的是這樣的灌輸：流露情感沒(méi)有“陽(yáng)剛之氣”。

　　Showing feelings or crying (heaven forbid!) was just not done.

　　人們不會(huì)輕易流露情感和哭泣(老天也不允!)。

　　So this was a very threatening assignment for some.

　　因此對(duì)某些人來(lái)說(shuō)，這是一項(xiàng)令人生畏的任務(wù)。
