Aesthetic 审美。语言是艺术，英文的语言美感要带着发现美的好奇心去感受和挖掘。学习语言应超越实用主义，带着理想主义。有了美的引领，才有努力的动力。阅读经典吧！

实用了不起的盖茨比以及诗人惠特曼的草叶集作引子说明。

“The city seen from the Queensboro Bridge is always the city seen for the first time, in its first wild promise of all the mystery and the beauty of the world.”

‘Anything can happen now that we’ve slid over this bridge,’ I thought; ‘anything at all….’

从皇后区大桥看去，这座城市永远好像是初次看见一样，那样引人入胜，充满了世界上所有的神秘和瑰丽。一切都有可能发生，当我们从桥上驶过，我想，任何事。。。。

“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”

我们奋力前行，小舟逆水而上，不断地被浪潮推回到过去。

-------------The Great Gatsby ----------------------

I celebrate myself

And what I assume you shall assume

For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.

I loafe and invite my soul,

I lean and loafe at my ease…. Observing a spear of summer grass.

6) A child said, what is the grass? Fetching it to me with full hands;

How could I answer the child? …. I do not know what it is any more than he

I guess it must be the flag of my disposition, out of hopeful green stuff woven.

Or I guess it is the handkerchief of he Lord,

A scented gift and remembrancer designedly dropped.

Bearing the owner’s name someway in the corners, that we may see and remard, and say Whose?
