Further thinking
What can we learn from Aron Ralston
If you were Aron, would you go on climbing after the serious accident
Aron’s spirit
Aron is a strong man who can make a good decision that can mean life or death.
Language points
After losing his arm, he wrote a book called
Between a Rock and a Hard Place.
失去手臂之后, 他写了一本名为《生死两难》的书。
“Between a Rock and a Hard Place 是一本书的书
名， 可译作《生死两难》。其本身是英语中的
一个固定习语，表示在艰难或危险的处境下“从
两难中进行选择”， 意为“ 左右为难；进退两难”
2. This means being in a difficult situation that
you cannot seem to get out of.
他的意思是“处于一个你似乎无法摆脱的困境中”。
1）此处mean 表示“……意思是；意为”，用来解
释上句出现在书名中的习语的意思。再如：
What do you mean 你的意思是什么？
此外， mean 还可以表示“意味着”的意思。如：
…before we have to make a decision that could
mean life or death.
在我们不得不做出可能意味着生死的决定之前…
2）a difficult situation that you cannot seem to get out of 和a decision that could mean life or death 均为定语从句。在前者中，从句that you cannot seem to get out of 修饰名词situation;
在后者中，从句that could mean life or death 修饰decision。
3. Aron is used to taking risks.
be used to 意为“习惯于”，其中to是介词，其后要接名词或V-ing形式。
I used to live in London.
我过去一直住在伦敦。
Practise
他习惯步行上学。
He is used to walking to school.
used to do sth. 意为“过去常常做某事”。
4. His love for mountain climbing is so great that he kept on climbing mountains even after this experience.
so...that...表示“如此/这么……以致于……”，常引导结果状语从句。其中so是副词，常可用来修饰形容词或副词。

He is so young that he can’t look after
himself.
