Good morning , my buddies. I'm so glad to see you via network. I'm hoping that we could spend a wonderful morning together. 大家早上好，我是Juliet，很高興今天又和大家在空中見面了。希望和您能在此度過一個美好的清晨。

【直擊主題】

This morning I would like to share an expression with you. It's like saying "Don't talk about it or you'll be upset someone." What's it?" Let's listen to a simple situational dialogue.

A : Should we tell Jane why people don't like her party?
B : No, that's better left unsaid.

【答疑解惑】

Now have you found it? It is "better left unsaid ". 在這個短句中,better 作為副詞，是“更好地”意思，left 是leave的過去式，在這里作為系動詞unsaid是unsay的過去分詞，但是隨著語言的發展，已經成了獨立的形容詞了，better left unsaid 直譯就是更好地留著不說出口，so the most pure translation of it in Chinese is: 還是不說為好，還是閉嘴的好。

【三言兩句話人世】

Sometimes even if what you'er gonna to say in all good faith to someone, which is of good help for him, you know, a saying goes, unpleasant advice is a good medicine,good medicine for health tastes bitter to the mouth. However , it goes the other way round. He would hate you to the guts, not be grateful for you . 我們常說呀:" 良藥苦口利于病，忠言逆耳利于行。" 雖然你是出于好意告訴你的朋友發生在他身上不好的事情的原因或是提出有利于他的一些意見，可是事情往往相反，他不但不感謝你，反而恨你。因此， better left unsaid.

【學以致用】

As usual, let's put it into practice. Please make a dialogue with this short sentence " Better left unsaid. " Think it hard and a suggestive dialogue will be given latter. Now have you done? The suggestive dialogue is as follows:

A : Hey , guys , our boss would like to your opinions on the present situation of our company.
B : That's better left unsaid, or we'll get fired.

A： 伙計們，老板想征集大家對公司目前狀況的意見。
B : 還是閉嘴的為好，弄得不好，我們會被炒魷魚的。

Yes , I agree with B. In reality , a boss as a leader often want to listen to the word said to praise him. Sometimes, a boss will hold a meeting or give you a form to get your opinions , which is a gloss to represent he's enlightened ruler. But if you don't know your boss inside out, "Better left unsaid. " is the good mammar. 我非常同意B的觀點，現實中，有些領導會開個會兒，或是發意見表給你，想征集大家的意見以顯示他是個明君，可是很多時候這是個假象，在你不熟悉你的領導的工作作風，性格等等方面的情況下，還是“最好不說的為好。”Silence is gold.

All right, it's time say goodbye to you . Thank you for your listening this time , have a nice day , see you next time . 好了，又要和大家暫時在空中分別了，祝您有個愉快的一天，感謝您的這次收聽，下次再會。
