But back at home in Nashville, her mother — a funny, happy, upbeat person — wouldn't let her mope.(經典背誦句+極佳寫作句)
上面的句子作者連用了三個形容詞funny, happy, upbeat來形容瑞茜母親的性格.三個形容詞并沒有放在職業前面,而是用破折號引出,這樣更能凸顯她的性格特征.在寫作中可以模仿這一點.
The lesson of the strory, I suppose, is that instead of making dozen excuses why you can not realize your dreams, think about this story, just hold to your dream and never give up.
此句是對前文故事的小節,所采用的表達為the lesson of the story is that…(這則故事的寓意在于),可用于表達對故事寓意及對某事經驗教訓的總結.
