Trump’s golf game 来自清晨朗读会 00:00 02:08
Good morning!

今天的练习内容是华盛顿邮报的一个社评专栏的节选内容,作者叫Dana Milbank,主题为Trump’s golf game。

我真的不是故意的,前两天选了奥巴马的演讲,今天选了一个吐槽Trump的文章…

这篇社评其实在说美国Sports Illustrated杂志写的关于特朗普打高尔夫的文章,如果刚兴趣的话,阅读原文有链接。

Have fun!
John

Trump’s golf game tells us an awful lot about Trump

By Dana Milbank

The late golf legend Bobby Jones called his sport “the closest game to the game we call life. You get bad breaks from good shots; you get good breaks from bad shots — but you have to play the ball where it lies.”

Unless you are Donald Trump.

I just read one of the best pieces of political journalism of the Trump age. It’s Sports Illustrated’s report on the president’s golf game.

Golf is a game of humility: Even the best players are brought low by nature and chance. And it’s a game of honor: You keep your own score and are often unseen by other players.

Then there is Trump golf. He breaks rules, exaggerates scores and ignores the game’s decorum. Sound familiar? He is, Sports Illustrated asserted, “easily the best golfer” ever to occupy the White House. Likewise, he is an enormously talented politician, with a genius for marketing. Yet in golf, as in life, he doesn’t leave it at that. He gilds the lily with dishonesty.

“Trump will sometimes respond to a shot he duffed by simply playing a second ball and carrying on as if the first shot never happened,” SI reports. “In the parlance of the game, Trump takes floating mulligans, usually more than one during a round. Because of them it is impossible to say what he has actually shot on any given day, according to 18 people who have teed it up with Trump over the last decade.”

The famed 20th-century golf pro and instructor Percy Boomer said that the game reveals much about the man. “If you wish to hide your character, do not play golf,” he said.

But Trump plays, and reveals more than we’d like to see.

王渊源John是谁?

我的中文名字叫王渊源,英文名字叫John Gordon,是个美国人,在中国呆了十几年了,从事了14年的英文教育工作,接触过好几十万中国同学。让我一直很困惑的一件事情是很多中国朋友学了很长时间的英文,但并没有一个很好的学习效果。而我知道语言学习并不是那么神秘的事情,只要坚持一些简单的事情,就能够学会。我希望我能够帮助大家解决动力问题、方法问题以及材料问题。(更正式的介绍可以回复“王渊源”)
