Where there is life, there is hope. 留得青山在，不怕没柴烧 Past cure, past care. 好了伤疤忘了疼

He is lifeless that is faultless. 人非圣贤，孰能无过 1．What the f**k is going on?（到底他妈的怎么回事?）

通常此话出于黑人之口，且口气最宜为疑惑，不解，愤怒等等。 若是白人则多数时候会说-What the hell is going on?

意义相同而适用于更多场合。 说此话之人身份通常为上级，且相处较久。 2．You son of pregnant dog! （你个狗娘养的！）

令人意外的是，最爱说这句话的往往是女性。越高贵，越端庄的女性越容易在压力达到一定值时便会脱口而出。 万万不要和有文化的MM顶嘴，否则被骂了还以为受表扬了呢！ 3．All rise! （全体起立！）

国产英语老师最误人子弟的就是口语太差，爱说想当然口语。 从小学到高中英语课代表一直喊的是-Stand up! 当然没什么不可以，但为什么不说标准的话呢？就象我们朗读中文时说普通话一样！

4．It’s bullnuts! （胡说八道！屁话！）

这句话一旦学会，包你用的乐不思蜀。 用途太广泛啦！ 5. d**n it!（可恶！）

此句往往从某个孤胆英雄的嘴中冒出，发音要轻，然口气要重！ 此英雄往往正面临生死抉择，例如是先剪蓝线还是先剪红线等。 说时要有壮士一去不复返的气势！ 此句适合用在被MM拒绝时,向MM的背影说出！ 万万不可忘记要配合以右手中指的朝天一刺！ 6．It’s none of your business!（关你屁事！） 此句已接近经典！ 当你在网上浏览不健康网站遭到网吧老板的劝阻时， 它往往能建下奇功！ 7．Come on!

此句因拥有太多含义，所以注释欠奉。 但它确实非常necessary! 所有的鬼佬一天不说个十七八遍就会浑身发痒。 它的经典之处你就好好体会吧！ 8． Ditto! （俺也是!）

本不是常用语，不过看过“幽灵”一片的人都染上了男主角的坏习惯。 从来不说I love you! 总是“俺也是，俺也是！”的把MM们气得口吐白沫！ 实际上你也可以说“Me too!”或“Me also!”，不过总是不够文艺腔！ 差了那么一点点味道和情调. 9．How can I forget such a beautiful girl/sexy boy?

此句在重逢某个你早已心仪的MM或GG是不妨拿来用用! 当对方还沉浸在陶醉中时，你可以利用这段时间好好想想对方的名字！ 10．I had no choice!（俺也是被逼无奈啊！）

最常用此话的要数那些被男主角逼到悬崖边上的家伙们！ 俺真的不是有意出卖你老人家的！饶俺一命吧！
