Elon Musk 2

Canada

1.bloom/blossom

When kimbal and Elon eventually reunited in Canada, their headstrong,playful natures bloomed.

Musk blossomed even more at Penn, and really started to feel comfortable while hanging out with his fellow physics students.

释义bloom: to become happier, healthier, or more successful in a way that is very noticeable 同义  blossom:这两个词在这章正好都出现了,本意都有开花的意思。这里用来形容Musk的性格特质发展了起来
例:She bloomed into an utterly beautiful creature  她出落的亭亭玉立例:Why do some people take longer than others to blossom?...为什么有的人比他人大器晚成?

造句: Jack Ma blossomed untile he graduated from the university.

headstrong
1.ADJ-GRADED 能被表示程度的副词或介词词组修饰的形容词固执的;任性的;刚愎自用的 If you refer to someone as headstrong, you are slightly critical of the fact that they are determined to do what they want.
He's young, very headstrong, but he's a good man underneath.

2.. feed on

Musk had found people who responded to his ambition rather than mocking it, and he fed on this environment.

释义: if a feeling or process feeds on something, it becomes stronger because of it:
例:Prejudice feeds on ignorance.

造句:Some popular products fed on internet.

3.

The conversation left Christie, who is now a science writer, with the distinct impression that Musk was handsome, affable, and a  tremendous nerd“For whatever reason, I was so struck by that moment on the sofa,” He captivated me in that way.

这一段描写Musk让Chrisite留下极其深刻的印象

left sb distinct impression 给某人留下了深刻的印象

be captivated by somebody/something:to attract someone very much, and hold their attention用captivate代替attract
He was captivated by her beauty.

4.

He wasn't just sniffing out trends, and he wasn't consumed by the idea of getting rich. He's been in pursuit of a master plan all along.

Elon不随大流,始终坚定的跟随者自己的内心。
sniff out:l to find out or discover something:
   

5.

Wilson radiated romance and sexual energe.散发出快乐,幸福

I went to the least number of classed possible.

Musk had a firmer grasp on the material than anyone else.


Thoughts

Elon到了加拿大,开始了他的大学生活。

1.坚持不懈

打了一份工,最初30人,最后只有包括他在内3人坚持了下来

追女生时坚持不懈的打电话

He could call very insistently, You always knew it was Elon because the phone would never stop ringing.

2.专注力

When Elon gets into something, he develops just this different level of interest in it than other people. That is what differentiates Elon from the rest of humanity

But for Musk, the distinction between stumbling into something and having intent is important.

这里又看到了Elon惊人的专注力,只要他感兴趣的,就可以到达一个专业的深度。

3.不随波逐流,坚定的做自己

If I made really great computer games, how much effect would that have on the world.

He wasn't just sniffing out trends, and he wasn't consumed by the idea of getting rich. He's been in pursuit of a master plan all along

他沉浸在自己的世界,一直坚持做自己想做的事情。可以想像当时他提出做电动车大家都觉得只是个概念而已,可是他却坚持着,让这个概念成为了事实。曾经看到一个报道说他是外星人,到火星的飞船,还有真空隧道。。。

如果心里有一个一定要达到的目标,就会有行动力朝着目标努力了,如果自己还没有动起来,可能是这个目标还不够有吸引力。
