Get on a person's nerves ! 把某人惹火
You're really getting on my nerves.

A: I can't believe my best friend stabbed me in the back.

B: What happened?

A: Be angry all you want. Don't take it out on me. I didn't do anything.
A: 你盡量生氣, 別把氣出在我頭上就是了。我又沒怎樣。
B: Go away.
B: 走開。
- "Don't vent your anger on me." 也是「別把氣出在我頭上」的意思。
mean (心眼儿; 态度)坏; 凶
After I told him that I wasn't going to buy the car, the salesman became very mean towards me.
我跟那个汽车销售员说我并不打算买那不车后, 他变的对我态度恶劣。
"mean" 是用来表示态度或心眼儿不好很常用的字。好比有人故意做些雪上加霜的事,
就可以说 "He is a mean person." (他这个人很坏)。
抱起朋友家的猫, 结果被猫抓了一把, 朋友也可以对猫说: "You're a mean cat."
down-to-earth 实在的

B: You did? Oh! That's so sweet of you, Carol.
B: 真的啊? Carol, 妳真是太好了!
- 形容一个人的心地好的字眼常用的有像"nice"、"kind"等等。
"sweet" 这个字可以用在男或女的身上。 当我们说"She's a very sweet person."
就是来形容这个人的个性中有喜欢替别人设想的特质。
sell-out 出卖人家的人
A: I can't believe Dan, the person I trusted so much turned out to be a complete sell-out.
A: 我无法相信 Dan, 这个我曾经这么信任的人竟然是个出卖我的人。
B: Man, I don't even know what to say. He really blew me away, too.
B: 唉, 我都不知道该说什么才好。 他也真是让我始料未及。
- 这里的"sell-out"是"selling a person out"的名词, 可以指「出卖人家的人」或是「出卖人的行为」。
上面的对话里, 还有另外一个我们之前也有看过的词语是"blow one away" (blew one away 的原在式)。
这里的"blow one away"应该可以翻作我们口语里面讲的「被打败的感觉」。
因为没有想到过对方会是那样子的人, 当事情发生了才有一种「怎么可能!」的震撼和惊讶。
其实"blow one away"也可以说是形容某人的表现太过优异, 令人在佩服之外感到十分的震撼。

成功者与失败者的区别在于处理机遇的态度。成功者做好充分准备迎接机遇的适时来临。而失败者工作懒散,眼看机遇悄然而过。

son of a gun 与 son of a bitch:
son of a gun 是对好友表示一种惊讶的口语(an interjection or an exclamation of surprise between very good friends),有点像「坏蛋」、「家伙」的味道。
但 son of a bitch(或 SOB)是美国人极为严重的骂人话(curse word),千万不可乱用,以免闹事。因为这不但意味这位 son 没有确定的父亲,同时母亲也是缺乏道德和贞操(less virtuous)。 例如:
* I have not seen you for a long time;you (are)son of a gun!(你这坏蛋啊,我好久不见你了!)
* After the two men called each other“son of a bitch”(SOB),they started a fight.(这两位男子互骂SOB後,就动起武来。)
至於 son of a gun 的来由,据说从前女人可以住在海军船上服务。结果一位女人生下孩子时,不知父亲是谁,於是船上的人,就以「gun」做为孩子的 paternity,孩子也就被称为「son of a gun」。虽然只用在好友中,但有时也真有坏蛋的意思(evil person or a rogue)所以不是恭维语(complimentary word),除非真正好友,少用为妙。

No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professionals and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any rule.
在科学领域内,专业与业余之间没有绝对的区分:任何规律都有其例外。
Nevertheless, the word "amateur" does carry a connotation that the person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific community and, in particular, may not fully share its values.
但是“业余”这个词的确具有特殊的含义,那就是所指的那个人没有完全融入某个科学家群体,具体地说,他可能并不完全认同这个群体的价值观。
The creative approach begins with the proposition that nothing is as it appears.
创造性方法始于“一切不可貌相”的主张。
Innovators will not accept that there is only one way to do anything.
创新者不会接受办事只有一种方法的论调。
Faced with getting from A to B, the average person will automatically set out on the best-known and apparently simplest route.
面对从A到B的挑战,普通人会自动踏上一条最为人熟悉、显然最简单的路径。
The innovator will search for alternate courses, which may prove easier in the long run and are bound to be more interesting and challenging even if they lead to dead ends.
创新者则会探寻另外不同的道路,而这样的道路将会最终被证实更简单、也一定更有趣、更富挑战性,即使它们通向绝境。
