Welcome to English in a Minute from home.
欢迎来到《一分钟英语》栏目，现在我在家里面给你讲述
Desperate can mean things are very bad or very difficult.
感觉到绝望可能意味着事情非常糟糕或非常困难。
What in the world are you doing?
你到底在做什么？
Jonathan, I'm playing Connect Four, and it's close.
乔纳森，我在玩四子棋，几乎快赢了。
Isn't that for two players?
不是双人玩的吗？
Yes, but I'm alone, so I have to play against myself.
是的，但是就只有我一个人，所以我不得不一个人充当两个角色。
Wow, well I guess desperate times call for desperate measures.
喔，我想非常时期就得采取非常措施。
Hey, I won! And I lost.
嘿，我赢了！但换个角度来说，我也输了。
In difficult times, we do things we probably wouldn't have to do in normal times.
在困难时期，我们会做一些平时可能不需要做的事情。
The phrase "desperate times call for desperate measures"
“非常时期就得采取非常措施”
is a way of expressing this.
是表达这一点的一种方式。
Just to be clear, playing Connect Four by yourself is a little desperate.
需要说明的是，自己一个人玩四子棋的话会感觉有点绝望。
And that's English in a Minute.
