Sample Sentences

其实你知道吗?早起倒逼得我养成了早睡的好习惯,我以前一度也是“晚上刷手机睡不着,早上闹钟叫醒不来”,而很多早起的人都能早睡,这是睡眠守恒定律。哈哈。
qíshí nǐ zhīdào ma ?zǎoqǐ dào bī de wǒ yǎngchéng le zǎo shuì de hǎo xíguàn ,wǒ yǐqián yīdù yě shì “wǎnshang shuā shǒujī shuì bu zháo ,zǎoshang nàozhōng jiào xǐngbùlái ”,ér hěn duō zǎoqǐ de rén dōu néng zǎo shuì ,zhè shì shuìmián shǒuhéng dìnglǜ 。hāhā 。
You know what? Waking up early has actually forced me to get into the habit of going to bed early. I also went through a phase of "if I don't use my phone at night I can't sleep and I can't wake up in the morning even with an alarm". In actual fact, most people that rise early, head to bed early. That's the laws of quality sleep! haha.
当然啦,我还知道狭义相对论呢,那个标志性的公式,感觉和牛顿的万有引力定律有点关系。
dāngrán la ,wǒ hái zhīdào xiáyì xiāngduìlùn ne ,nàge biāozhìxìng de gōngshì ,gǎnjué hé Niúdùn de wànyǒuyǐnlì dìnglǜ yǒudiǎnr guānxi 。
Of course, I've even heard of the special theory of relativity, that iconic formula. I think it's got something to do with Newton's law of universal gravitation.
还算有点常识呀你,狭义相对论是爱因斯坦在广义相对论发现前十年制定的,当时已令人震惊地揭示了时间的流逝并非绝对,但与牛顿在1687年所阐述的经典引力定律,在许多方面都不一致。
hái suàn yǒudiǎnr chángshí ya nǐ ,xiáyì xiāngduìlùn shì Àiyīnsītǎn zài guǎngyì xiāngduìlùn fāxiàn qián shínián zhìdìng de ,dāngshí yǐ lìng rén zhènjīng de jiēshì le shíjiān de liúshì bìngfēi juéduì ,dàn yǔ Niúdùn zài 1687 nián suǒ chǎnshù de jīngdiǎn yǐnlì dìnglǜ ,zài xǔduō fāngmiàn dōu bù yīzhì 。
So you do have some general knowledge. Special relativity was defined by Einstein ten years before he came to the theory of general relativity. At that time, he'd already revealed to everyone's surprise that the flow of time was not absolute, but it was also not entirely the same as the classic laws of gravitation which he described in 1687, in many aspects.
是啊。不过我可以用二八定律。

当然,二八定律不是魔术。很多具体和复杂的问题还要你们自己去解决。
dāngrán ,èrbā dìnglǜ bù shì móshù 。hěn duō jùtǐ hé fùzá de wèntí hái yào nǐmen zìjǐ qù jiějué 。
Of course. The 80/20 rule isn't magic. There are still many specific and complex problems you need to solve for yourselves.

还要针对他们的不同需要。你和你的团队都很有能力,但是分析和优化资源的能力还不足。刚刚说的二八定律你们要好好想想。
hái yào zhēnduì tāmen de bùtóng xūyào 。nǐ hé nǐ de tuánduì dōu hěn yǒu nénglì ,dànshì fēnxī hé yōuhuà zīyuán de nénglì hái bùzú 。gānggāng shuō de èrbā dìnglǜ nǐmen yào hǎohāo xiǎngxiang 。
And we also need to direct the efforts toward addressing their specific needs. You and your team are very capable, but your analysis and optimization of resources is still not up to par. You really need to consider carefully the 80/20 rule we just talked about.

二八定律你应该知道吧?通常,一个企业80%的利润来自20%的项目,而20%的客户能给公司带来80%的利润。所以你得清楚这最重要的20%是什么。
èrbā dìnglǜ nǐ yīnggāi zhīdào ba ?tōngcháng ,yī ge qǐyè bǎifēnzhī bāshí de lìrùn láizì bǎifēnzhī èrshí de xiàngmù ,ér bǎifēnzhī èrshí de kèhù néng gěi gōngsī dàilái bǎifēnzhī bāshí de lìrùn 。suǒyǐ nǐ děi qīngchu zhè zuì zhòngyào de bǎifēnzhī èrshí shì shénme 。
You probably know the 80/20 rule, right? Generally, 80% of a company's profits come from 20% of its projects. Also, 20% of its customers will provide the company with 80% of its profits. Therefore, you must be very clear on where the most important 20% lies.
