유튜브 영어채널 라이브아카데미로 공부하며 만드는 나만의 강의노트


저는 직장이 집에서 1시간 반 걸려요. 

I live an hour and a half away from my workplace. 

출퇴근하는게 물론 쉽지는 않아요.

Commuting is certainly(of course) not easy.

근데 훨씬 더 좋은 집에서 살 수 있다는 점이 좋아.

But, I like the fact that I can afford a much better home.

솔직히 말해서, 직장에서 5분 거리에 살 수 있다 하더라도 작고 낡은 아파트에서 살고 싶지 않아.

Honestly, even if I could live 5 minutes away from my workplace, I don't want to live in a small and crappy apartment.

차라리 길게 출퇴근하면서 괜찮은 집에서 살고 싶어.

I'd rather have long commutes and live in a decent place.


even if 아직 정해지지 않은 일에 대해, 어찌될지 모르지만 그런다 하더라도

even though 이미 벌어진 일에 대해 그런데도, 정해진 상태지만 그렇다 해도

ex) Even if it's raining this weekend, we're gonna go out on exercise.

ex) Even though it's raining like this, there are a few people who are riding. 


Homework

나는 근무시간이 길지는 않아서 돈은 많이 못받아. 적은 급여로 지내는게 물론 쉽지는 않은데 내 시간이 많다는 점이 좋아. 솔직히 말해서 돈을 아주 많이 벌 수 있다 하더라도 내 모든 시간을 일하는 데에만 보내고 싶지 않거든. 

차라리 돈 적게 받으면서 내가 하고 싶은걸 할 시간을 갖고 싶어 


I don't work very long hours but I don't make a lot of money.


It's certainly not easy living on such a small salary but I really like the fact that I have a lot of time for my self.


Honestly, even if I could make a lot of money, I don't want to spend all my time working.


I'd rather earn little and have time to do what I want.

THE STARFISH 


Last summer I took a trip to an island. I had a lot of fun. I sat and watched the waves and listened to the ocean. I learned to identify birds. I discovered pretty things and enjoyed the taste of new foods. It was a very nice time.


One evening I took a pleasant walk by the ocean. When the waves came in, many starfish* fell on the beach. Some starfish went back into the water, and they were safe. But other starfish were still on the sand. They would die if they did not get into the water. There were many starfish on the beach that night. It made me sad, but I knew I could not fix the problem. I stepped very carefully so I did not damage them.


Then I saw a little girl. She was also sad about the starfish. She wanted to prevent all of them from dying. She asked me if I could perhaps help her.


“To be frank, I don’t think we can do anything,” I said.


The little girl started to cry. She sat back against a rock and thought for a while. Finally, the emotion was gone. She stopped crying and stood up. Then she picked up a starfish and threw it into the water.


“What are you doing?” I asked her. But she did not answer me. She just threw as many starfish as she could. “You cannot save all of them!” I said.


She stopped to look at me. “No, I cannot save them all,” she replied. Then she picked up a very big starfish and said, “But I can save this one.” And then she smiled and threw the starfish as far as she could into the ocean.


*starfish - an animal shaped like a star that lives in the water
