摘要:对每一个人来说,步入新的一年就是一个新的起点,总会有很多愿望和憧憬。下面我们所准备的这篇双语阅读,不仅是口语学习的宝贝,更重要的是能让你学到很多新东西。

9. Learn Something New
学习新东西

There's nothing more esteem-building than getting an additional qualification under your belt. Your career options widen, you meet new people and you exercise your brain. Check out local community colleges, which offer a range of inexpensive courses.
 
没有比充分掌握一门技能更能建立自尊了。你拓宽了职业选择,你见到了一群新人,你锻炼了大脑。到当地社区大学看一看那里有没有便宜的课程可以学习。

10. Help Others
帮助别人

Every day, we're hearing about a new catastrophe in some corner of the globe, so it's no surprise that "volunteering vacations" are booming worldwide. But you don't have to head to a far-flunch locate (or spend money) to make the world better -- offering your time, or if that's in short supply, simply donating furniture, clothes and other household items can help someone in need (and make you feel great).
每天,我们耳边总传来地球的某个角落又发生了一场大灾难,因此,世界各地都有义工假期也就不足为奇了。但你不必要到那个偏远山区(或出钱)才能让世界变得更好--你只要奉献你的时间就好了,或者如果出现物资缺乏,捐出家具、衣物和其它一些家居用品就可以了。这些能帮到在困境中的人们(也能让你感觉很棒)。

11. Land a New Job
找一份新工作

Whether you're itching to switch careers or have recently lost your job, there are plenty of reasons these days to stay current (read: keep your resume updated and don't stop proving you bring something to the table).
不管你是期盼转行或是最近失业了,这些天你都有必要保持当前状态(保持更新简历,继续提升技能)。

12. See the World (or Even the State!)
看看世界(或仅仅是我们国家)

Get a new perspective on things — literally and figuratively — by putting yourself into a new environment. And it doesn't mean hopping on a plane -- there are plenty of fresh locales within driving distance from where you live.
把自己放到一个崭新的环境中,以新的视觉看待事物--从表面的和深层的两个角度。它不意味着你要匆忙地跳上飞机--其实,从家里到出发点,沿途可以看很多美好的景色。

13. Find Your Zen
找到信仰

If even thinking about all these changes starts getting you stressed out, make a vow this year to chill out.
如果连想一想这些改变都会让你开始紧张,那么今年,许下誓言:凡事冷静。
