When I Was Sad and Lonely
Guidance for Reciting
If you were deceived by life，don't be dismal and don't be wild！In the day of grief，be mild and believe that merry days will come…
Yesterday when I was sad and was lonely，
You showed me the way
to leave the past and all its tears behind me.
Tomorrow may be even brighter than today，
Since I've thrown my sadness away.
昨天，当我们忧伤孤独的时候
诵读导言
假如生活欺骗了你，不要悲伤不要心急，忧郁的日子里需要镇静，相信快乐的日子将会来临……
昨天，当我忧伤孤独的时候，
你给我指明道路，
令我将过去和泪水远远抛在身后。
明天会更好，
因为我已抛却我的烦恼。
口语点津
文中出现了“throw my sadness away”，意思是“抛开（忘却）悲伤”（discard something because no longer needed），比如：I threw the alarm clock away because it had stopped working.我把闹钟丢掉因为它已经停止操作了。另有“throw out”是“清除掉”的意思，比如：I threw out all my old clothes to make some space in my wardrobe.我把旧衣服清除掉，这样我的衣橱就会有些空位。还有“throw over”（get rid of），意思是“不理会”（abandon），比如：She threw over her friends in difficulties.她对有困难的朋友袖手旁观。
