Goal: Reading and Grammar

Title: Naomi Osaka: 'It's O.K. Not to Be O.K.'

Life is a journey.

In the past few weeks, my journey took an unexpected path but one that has taught me so much and helped me grow. I learned a couple of key lessons.

過去式：taught

現在完成式：has/have taught

Shelly taught me.

Shelly has taught me.

I ate.

I have eaten.

Lesson one: you can never please everyone. The world is as divided now as I can remember in my short 23 years. Issues that are so obvious to me at face value, like wearing a mask in a pandemic or kneeling to show support for anti-racism, are ferociously contested. I mean, wow. So, when I said I needed to miss French Open press conferences to take care of myself mentally, I should have been prepared for what unfolded.

go-went-gone

run-ran-run

I should have gone to the party.

我當初不應該睡太晚 I should not have overslept 

他當初應該要告訴我他在想什麼 He should have told me what he was thinking

他們當初不應該一起去玩 They shouldn’t have played.

Lesson two was perhaps more enriching. It has become apparent to me that literally everyone either suffers from issues related to their mental health or knows someone who does. The number of messages I received from such a vast cross section of people confirms that. I think we can almost universally agree that each of us is a human being and subject to feelings and emotions.

Either A(詞性一樣)….or B（詞性一樣）

I like either a blue shirt or a green shirt.

I like to either go swimming or go biking.

It is either at home or at school.

In any other line of work, you would be forgiven for taking a personal day here and there, so long as it’s not habitual. You wouldn’t have to divulge (disclose, leak) your most personal symptoms to your employer; there would likely be HR measures protecting at least some level of privacy.

1. xxx-xxx-forgiven

Answer: forgive ,forgave,forgiven

2. 獨立造句：我愛羅被鳴人原諒(Vpp, by)

Answer:  我愛羅 is forgiven by 鳴人
