今天再下决心重用英语辞典工具
　　今天才发现自己一个错误，很少用英语辞典。
　　前几个月买的，但也没怎么用上，真是该反省下，这次下决心每天都要看看，读读划划写写。
　　昨晚看湖南台时看到周思成在主持一档节目时正好在解说“available
”这个词的用法。
　　当时他举了个例子：“Are you available?”你单身吗？ ,呵呵，以前我只也只会说“Are you
single?”，想不到还能这么说，室友说，你会这样说，显得你更有蕴含，更有水平。是嘛，我恍然大悟，一下就记住了这个用法！大声回答：“yep,i
am&available！”
　　从今天开始，重用我的英语辞典工具，今天拿“available”在辞典里用了下，就爱上了这种英英解析，比汉语翻译来得更原味，毕竟翻译总会缺少原版的韵味。

—availability

　　这两个辞典的解析有点不一样，但我都喜欢，只是现在只买了朗文当代英语辞典，挺厚的，柯林斯词典暂时不买了，网上去下一个也可以用。反正电脑面前就用在线，平时也可翻翻字典，慢慢用习惯，相信我会爱上看英语辞典！
　　关于如何使用英语辞典，我原来很重视所谓的“抄写了多少词”，好象一定要抄很多词才有效。郑博士说，不是的，其实英英词典用常用词来解释词条的，郑博士强调的“只管去说”，目的是练出用这些常用词来说话的“句感”。“只管去说”时，解释、例句时时在帮你练‘句感’。不要陷在某些人所谓的单词量的陷阱中，只管多听，只管大声说就会成功。

For over two decades Too Busy Not to Pray has stood as a classic on prayer, helping Christians all over the world slow down to draw near to God.
During those years, the world certainly hasn't slowed down. If anything, the pace, intensity and number of distractions have only increased. Brokenness and pain seem to have increased as well, with news of civil war, poverty, broken families and sex-trafficking touching us daily. The urgent need for prayer is clear, but busyness still keeps many of us from finding time to pray.
Two truths haven't changed in all these years: God is the same powerful, just, holy God he' and true prayer―prayer that changes us and allows us to participate in God's work in the world―can't happen on the fly. So Bill Hybels once again offers us his practical, time-tested ideas on slowing down to pray. Revised throughout and including a new introduction and new chapter on prayer and compassion for the world, this twentieth-anniversary edition of Too Busy Not to Pray calls both young and old to make prayer a priority, and broadens our vision for what our eternal, powerful God does when his people slow down to pray.

This was my first experience reading Bill Hybel's work and it won't be my last. While his writing style is not as engaging to me as that of a Max Lucado or Frederick Buechner, I think that Hybel's instruction and guidance made it one of the best Christian books that I've read. It covers many questions that people have about how to pray, as well as, how people can get off track with their understanding of prayer and it's purpose for our lives.Power Chapter: "In my head I have always believed in God's omnipotence...But too often this belief hasn't registered where it really counts--in my heart (p. 31)." In chapter 3, Hybels shares his findings from studying God's power and
omnipotence. He broke it down into "God's Power over Nature," "God's Power over Circumstances," "God's Power over Hearts," and "The Same Yesterday, Today, and Forever." After going into depth about God's power, he closes by reminding us that God, like a good father, doesn't want us to think we have to flog ourselves, begging for hours to get H instead, God is "listening very closely, hoping" to hear our voices...that God actually takes great pleasure in meeting our needs.Another strong aspect of Hybel's book is the way he approaches misconceptions in how we think about responding to the Spirit's promptings that come through a more disciplined prayer life. I think this part of the book is especially helpful because it addresses not just how to talk to God, but also how to hear and know better when it is God speaking in our lives. My favorite line in the whole book: "It never fails--in late January or early February when the Midwest goes into the deep freeze, I feel a strange but compelling calling to start a church in Honolulu." Me too, Brother. M).I highly recommend this book to new believers and those who consider themselves mature in faith but want to develop deeper more powerful prayer lives.
