2. 為什麽選這個詞？?
“desirable”是“desire”的形容詞形式，意思是“值得擁有的” “理想的”，是壹個口語和寫作中都能用到的高頻詞匯。我們想表示“壹份好工作”“壹個好結果”時，除了可以用最常見的 good 外，還可以用 desirable，比如“a desirable job/outcome”。?
每年要過年的時候，許多東北人都會去海南省避冬，我就可以說：?Hainan is a? desirable? place for many northeasterners to visit during the winter months.
美國暢銷書作者馬爾科姆?格拉德威爾在? David? and Goliath?中提到過壹個概念，叫“desirable difficulty”，有些困難和障礙其實是可以幫助我們成長的，正如孟子所說：“天將降大任於斯人也，必先苦其心誌，餓其體膚……”我們可以總結書中的話來解釋這個概念，比如：?The idea of“ desirable ?difficulty” suggests that not all difficulties are negative. Some difficulties
turn out to be desirable.?
《經濟學人》在 2018 聖誕特刊中就有這樣壹段話用到了 desirable：?The mainstream view is that? desirable? men are gao-fu-shuai—tall, rich and handsome. And the ideal woman is bai-fu-mei—pale-skinned, rich and beautiful.?
desirbale 和 ideal 在這裏意思相近，都可以理解為“理想的”，可以放在壹起記憶。?
