最新期的《纽约时报》刊登了《百年孤独》和《霍乱时期的爱情》的知名作家Gabriel Garcia Marquez的儿子Rodrigo Garcia Marquez写给父亲的一封信，写的真好 You would pity our frailty; you would marvel at our interconnectedness, be saddened by the suffering, enraged by the callousness of some of the leaders and moved by the heroism of people on the front lines. And you would be eager to hear how lovers were braving every obstacle, including the risk of death, to be together. Most of all, you would be as endeared to humans as you ever were......Won't there be a good argument to be made that the pandemic is proof that life vanishes in the most unexpected ways and so we must live big and live now?

119. 随着#全国高校5月开学时间表# 的公布，应届毕业生的就业问题又一次引起大家的讨论。和翻翻一起看看最新一期☃️里和就业相关的报道吧～（文末有相关话题的写作表达哦～）

✍️原句：She is now keener than ever to get hired by a big firm, and is mainly searching for 【openings】at state-owned companies.

✍️翻译：如今，她比以往任何时候都更渴望被大公司聘用，而且她主要在搜索国企的空缺职位。
 
这里的openings怎么理解呢？

opening本身作为形容词表示“开始的；开篇的；第一”相当于first, beginning。
→opening remarks 开场白
 opening speech 开幕致辞

opening night（戏剧、电影等的）首演之夜
 
本句里的opening是名词，表示”a job or an opportunity to do something”中文可表示“（职位的）空缺；机会，机遇”。
举个例子：
There are several openings in the sales department.
销售部有几个空缺职位。
 
opening作名词时还可以表示”a good opportunity for sb”，中文可表示“良机”。
举个例子：
Winning the competition was the opening she needed for her career.
在这次比赛中获胜是她未来事业发展的良好开端。
 
拓展→写作表达：
Graduating at a time of such economic hardship could be more than just a temporary setback.
✍️翻译：在经济如此困难的情况下毕业，学生们遭遇的不仅仅是一次暂时的挫折。
