英语单词 spontaneity
英美音标 [ˌspɔntə'neiəti]
中文释义 n.自发性
vocab简明 Acting with spontaneity might mean bursting into song on the street, or throwing down your rake and jumping in a pile of leaves — in other words, doing something without thinking it through beforehand.
vocab扩展 The noun spontaneity is related to a more common word, the adjective spontaneous. The writer Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Our spontaneous action is always the best. You cannot, with your best deliberation and heed, come so close to any question as your spontaneous glance shall bring you.” He meant that if we learn to trust our instincts instead of weighing the potential consequences of everything we do, we'll make better decisions.
真题原句 In both oral and written English, talking is triumphing over speaking, spontaneity over craft.
