forget简单

And just read a single poem. In his Oxford lectures, Seamus Heaney argued that a poem draws a picture of reality, a “glimpsed alternative” that sets up a contradiction with your own, in ways little and large. The negotiation, between you and it, is the heart of the matter. What does the poet see that you don’t? What does the difference mean? It could be one of the best conversations you ever have. Forget self-help books; reading is self-help in action.

再读一首诗就好。谢默斯·希尼在牛津的讲座中提出，一首诗描绘了一幅现实图景，即一种“瞥见的另一种可能”，它在大大小小的方面与你自己的现实形成矛盾。你与诗之间的协商才是问题的核心。诗人看到了什么你没看到的东西？这种差异意味着什么？这可能是你一生中最好的对话之一。忘掉那些自助类书籍吧；阅读本身就是付诸行动的自助。

“Elephants never forget” — or so they say — and that piece of folklore seems to have some foundation.

“大象从不忘事”——人们是这么说的——而这句民间说法似乎有一定的依据。

You all came into a conversation where you first met the person, but after some time you may have met again and have forgotten their name.

你们都经历过这样的交谈：初次见到某人，但过了一段时间再次相遇时，你可能已经忘了他们的名字。
