最初（さいしょ）に「今日の話はいつもより短い」と言ってますが、ウソです。時間の計算（けいさん）もできないくらい、頭が働いていないようです。それでも、GW（ゴールデンウィーク）が終わって、やっと日常（にちじょう）がもどってきました。楽しいGWが3年ぶりなら、「遊び→仕事」のモードチェンジ mode change も3年ぶりです。私はGWに何をしたのでしょう？　お聞きください。

Captain Sesalt & The ABC Pirates

Letter E

我就这样孤独地生活着，没有一个能真正谈得来的人，一直到六年前在撒哈拉沙漠上发生了那次故障。
So I lived my life alone, without anyone that I could really talk to, until I hadan accident with my plane in the Desert of Sahara, six years ago.
我的发动机里有个东西损坏了。
Something was broken in my engine.


当时由于我既没有带机械师也没有带旅客，我就试图独自完成这个困难的维修工作。
And as I had with me neither a mechanic nor any passengers, I set myself to attempt the difficult repairs all alone.
这对我来说是个生与死的问题。我随身带的水只够饮用一星期。
It was a question of life or death for me: I had scarcely enough drinking water to last a week.


第一天晚上我就睡在这远离人间烟火的大沙漠上。
The first night, then, I went to sleep on the sand, a thousand miles from any human habitation.
我比大海中伏在小木排上的遇难者还要孤独得多。
I was more isolated than a shipwrecked sailor on a raft in the middle of the ocean.
而在第二天拂晓，当一个奇怪的小声音叫醒我的时候，你们可以想见我当时是多么吃惊。
Thus you can imagine my amazement, at sunrise,when I was awakened by an odd little voice.

这小小的声音说道：“请你给我画一只羊，好吗？”
It said:"If you please– draw me a sheep!”
啊！
What!

给我画一只羊…
Draw me a sheep!
我像是受到惊雷轰击一般，一下子就站立起来。
I jumped to my feet, completely thunderstruck. I blinked my eyes hard.

我使劲地揉了揉眼睛，仔细地看了看。
I looked carefully all around me.
我看见一个十分奇怪的小家伙严肃地朝我凝眸望着。
And I saw a most extraordinary small person,who stood there examining me with great seriousness.

这是后来我给他画出来的最好的一副画像。
Here you may see the best portrait that, later, I was able to make of him.
可是，我的画当然要比他本人的模样逊色得多。
But my drawing is certainly very much less charming than its model.
这不是我的过错。
That, however, is not my fault.
六岁时，大人们使我对我的画家生涯失去了勇气，
The grown-ups discouraged me in my painter’s career when I was six years old, 
除了画过开着肚皮和闭着肚皮的蟒蛇，后来再没有学过画。
and I never learned to draw anything, except boas from the outside and boas from the inside.


我惊奇地睁大着眼睛看着这突然出现的小家伙。
Now I stared at this sudden apparition with my eyes fairly starting out of my head in astonishment.

Have you been promoted at work for your great ideas? 

While we all have good ideas, sadly, most of them never see the light of day. People keep their ideas to themselves for many reasons. Perhaps they don’t like speaking up in meetings or feel overburdened by work and don’t want to invite more work. Maybe they’ve brought up ideas at work before, and others didn’t seem interested or even discouraged them. After all, most people don’t recognize the potential of an idea at first.

But of course, we all benefit from good ideas. In the workplace, they can lead to the creation of entirely new products and services, an easier way to do something, time saved, or countless other benefits.

Tune in to this episode of the Express to Impress podcast to find out how to present ideas successfully.  You’ll advance your career in no time!

IELTS SPEAKING PART 1 - Topic- Bicycles:

Shipbuilding today is based on science and ships are built using computers and sophisticated tools. Shipbuilding in ancient Rome, however, was more of an art relying on estimation, inherited techniques and personal experience. The Romans were not traditionally sailors but mostly land- based people, who learned to build ships from the people that they conquered  namely the Greeks and the Egyptians.

There are a few surviving written documents that give descriptions and representations of ancient Roman ships, including the sails and rigging. Excavated vessels also provide some clues about ancient shipbuilding techniques. Studies of these have taught us that ancient Roman shipbuilders built the outer hull first, then proceeded with the frame and the rest of the ship. Planks used to bulld the outer hull were initially sewn together. Starting from the 6th century BCE, they were fixed using a method called mortise and tenon, whereby one plank locked into another without the need for stitching. Then in the first centuries of the current era, Mediterranean shipbuilders shifted to another shipbuilding method, still in use today, which consisted of building the frame first and then proceedlng with the hull and the other components of the ship. This method was more systematic and dramatically shortened ship construction t›mes. The ancient Romans built large merchant ships and warships whose size and technology  were unequalled  until the 16th century CE.
