本期节目的topic:靠自己

古语有云：靠山吃山，靠水喝水。但是没山没水的时候怎么办？那只能靠自己咯！

I'll stand on my own two feet.
我靠我自己。

【讲解】to stand on one's own two feet : 表示某人能独立自主，靠自己的力量来办事。

【情景一】很多事情都要靠自己，人始终要学着长大的。
Son, somebody may try to get you to smoke marijuana or drink, just to fit in with the crowd. But I hope you can stand on your own two feet and say no.
儿子呀，有的人为了要你合群也许会劝你喝酒或吸毒。但是我希望你能够独立自主，拒绝他们的引诱。

【情景二】比较独立的人往往深受他人的青睐。

The voters don't always agree with him but they really like the way he stands on his own feet and makes his own decisions.
选民们不一定都同意他的观点，但是他们倒很欣赏他下决定时的那种独立自主精神。
