新概念英语第一册课文和笔记:第8课

Yesterday I watched a French movie.

It's about marriage, career, daily world and something like that.

It's typical French way to view a psychological problem.

Always find a question for yourself in your life whether you are happy or not.

life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.

生活不是一个需要解决的问题，而是一种需要经历的现实。

Always find a question for yourself whether you are happy or not.

it must come true sometime soon,

some how,

[朗诵词]

And all of this happens

because the world is waiting,

waiting for one child.

Black, white, yellow, no one knows,

And everyone to everyone's neighbour and

will be words to be forgotten forever.
