今日长难句：

it allows us to have perspective on our lives—the ability to not take ourselves too seriously, to laugh at ourselves, to see the bigger picture, and to see that things will work out. （2016 translation）

温馨贴士：

本句骨干为主谓宾宾补规划：it（主语）allows（谓语）us（宾语）to have perspective on our lives（宾补）；破折号之后the ability 是同位语，进一步说明阐明to have perspective on our lives；the ability之后是由and联接的4个并排的不定式短语做后置定语润饰the ability。

背记单词：

1.perspective [p?’spekt?v] n. 观念；前景

【拓宽】perspective on our lives 人生观

2.take … seriously细心对待；妄自负大

3.the bigger picture全局

4.work out处置；算出；完成

参阅译文：

它让咱们构成自个的人生观——一种不妄自负大、自我讪笑、着眼全局以及认为“车道山前必有路”的才能。

翻译技巧：

1.词义的引申，例如perspective on our lives最恰当的翻译是“人生观”，当然直译为“对日子的观念”也可以。

2.联系语境进行褒贬的变换。例如“take …

seriously”原意为“细心对待”，是褒义词，可是联系此句语境：“…the ability to not take ourselves too seriously…”，这儿“take … seriously”应为贬义颜色，咱们翻译为了“妄自负大”。
