「每日英文閱讀分享#029-神奇書店」
今晚,我想來點Inc.
由於HBR的選題跟內容我最近沒什麼興趣,
然後就The economist最小氣不讓人試閱,
所以今天跟大家分享另一個雜誌,「Inc.」,
他的文章大多都是分享跟創業相關的內容,
有興趣的捧有可以追起來拉~
今天文章:Part Bookstore, Part Retail Theater, This Tempe Business Became a Local Mainstay
這篇文章主要介紹這間神奇的書店,
剛開始,書店化身為storyteller的空間,幫助bilingual跟deaf children,
後來慢慢的也化身為教室,教導一些aspiring authors,如何寫作、如何出版?
同時也是增加community events(例如音樂會等等)、二手書交易,
最後更擴增店面變成一個theater,也同時販售起禮物。
其中販售禮物的方式我覺得很酷,
They display a set of mixing bowls next to The Joy of Cooking.
我其實也非常喜歡逛書店,
有時候會意外的在書店看到很棒的書,
最近也要開始慢慢多寫書評與心得,
希望能夠帶給大家多元的體驗。
至於Inc.的文章我可能要多看一些才能跟大家分享了~
但的確一些用字難度有稍微增加,
每次看到不會的字或用法都覺得很愉悅~
今天要跟大家分享一個神奇單字:【subject】
這邊我就省略它當名詞的用法了,
除了名詞,subject還有兩個詞性,
當adj.時, 慣用為:be subject to
1: owing obedience or allegiance to the power or dominion of another
2
a: suffering a particular liability or exposure: subject to temptation
b: having a tendency or inclination : PRONE: subject to colds
3: contingent on or under the influence of some later action: the plan is subject to discussion
--Merriam Webster
當作動詞時,特別需要比較的是這個意思時to cause or force to undergo or endure,
慣用語會是be subjected to,
例句:He was subjected to constant verbal abuse.
所以別搞混了唷~
本文例句:They were titles about politics and environmentalism--subjects the idealistic young founders hoped would open minds and change attitudes.

來個每日一字:spontaneous (adj.) / spontaneity (n.)

👉https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/spontaneity
生小孩前我是一個很隨興、熱愛自由的人(咦?誰不愛?)
週末依然早上八點多起床,然後依當下的心情決定要先開始做哪件喜歡的事情,
隨興地安排看書、追劇、運動、上跳舞課。
所以我很喜歡用這個字定義自己spontaneous: happening or done in a natural, often sudden way, without any planning or without being forced,就是隨心所欲、隨興這種感覺。
上週末全家去露營,小孩的腎上腺素發威到睡覺前一刻,所以今天早上他們整個起不來。
想說都暑假了,最近工作剛好也比較不忙,好!犧牲一下,be a spontaneous mom 乾脆讓他們多放一天假吧!
吃了頓悠閒早餐、陪我工作、處理一些家務事後,下午去游泳。
(讓他們再次累癱又可以八點送他們去睡覺哇哈哈)
Let’s all try to embrace a dose of spontaneity in life.
Occasionally throw the schedule to the wind and take a moment to create spontaneous joy for someone else.
