大家好，我是Honglin老师，欢迎来到我的汉字频道。
这是我的第三条推送。今天要和你们分享的是“目“字，目标的”目“，题目的”目“。

“目“，是一个象形字。指的是我们的眼睛。最开始的”目“字，就是一只眼睛的样子，非常像，中间还有圆圆的眼球。后来中国人把这只眼睛换了一个方向，把它往左边90度转了一下，把它竖了起来，就慢慢变成我们今天的，竖着的“目”了。目也是一个偏旁，表示和眼睛或者看见这个动作有关系。比如，“眼睛”，两个字都有“目”字旁。又比如，睡觉的“睡”，因为要闭上眼睛，所以也是用的“目”字旁。是不是很有意思呢？

那含有“目”字的词语很多，尤其是成语，今天就给大家分享一个成语，叫“目不转睛”。睛是“眼睛”的“睛”，指的是我们眼睛中间的眼球，眼珠。那“目不转睛”，眼睛里的眼球都不转了，大家猜猜是什么意思。我停顿两秒，大家想想啊。猜出来了吗，连眼球都不动地盯着看，那就是你的注意力全部都在一件东西上，非常专心地看着。比如，这部电视剧太精彩了，他简直看得目不转睛。

这就是“目不转睛”，指专心地看着。

Vive en español sin salir de tu casa: cómo crear tu mundo 100% inmersivo

Las Islas Galápagos, como se les conoce comúnmente, se llaman en realidad el parque Nacional Galápagos, ubicados a aproximadamente 1.000 kilómetros de la costa ecuatoriana, son reconocidas a nivel mundial por su increíble biodiversidad y su papel fundamental en la teoría de la evolución de Darwin. Este archipiélago enfrenta un desafío importante en la actualidad: el manejo eficiente del plástico que llega a sus costas. Conoce al Frente insular: un grupo comunitario fundado por el comunicador social Alberto Andrade.

Frente Insular y su impacto en las Islas Galápagos

“I’d really like to participate in a drawing contest, which is organised by my university every year, and the first three prize winners actually go forward to a national drawing contest. I wasn’t so into drawing over the years, but I found that during all the covid lockdowns that it was a great way to pass the time, and really helped me from going stir crazy stuck at home every day during the numerous lockdowns we had.

 

I recently showed some of my friends a few of my sketches, which are mostly landscapes, and they were very complimentary, and suggested that I enter a competition, which gave me a boost of confidence. 

I imagine that the  competition would be pretty stiff for this contest, but i feel confident that i’ve really developed my skills enough over the past year or so, and with my friends and families encouragement have been able to get the nerve up to show off my drawing skills in public.

 

I guess the main reason i’d like to take part in this contest is that i’ve really grown to love drawing, and feel it would actually be a lot of fun to enter, as well as giving me a new challenge which i think i’m now ready for. Another reason is of course the chance of winning a nice prize, and maybe even having my drawing going forward to the national contest, which would really be amazing.

 

Thank you…. “
