在写作中活用谚语的技巧
一、引用谚语的技巧
1. 用as the saying goes来引出谚语，其意为“常言道”“正如有句谚语所说”；它可以放在句首，也可以放在句末，有时也可放在句子中间。如：
“More haste less speed,” as the saying goes. 常言道：“欲速则不达。”
“Accidents will happen,” as the saying goes. 正如有句谚语所说：“天有不测风云。”
As the saying goes, “Don’t count your chickens before they’re hatched.” 正如有句谚语所说：“蛋未孵化，莫数小鸡。”
However, as an old saying goes, a coin has two sides. Having a private teacher also has its disadvantages. 但是，正如有句谚语所说：“每个硬币都有两个面。”请家庭教师也有其不利之处。
From my point of view, taking more physical exercises is a good way to solve these problems. Just as a saying goes: “Only work no play makes Jack a dull boy.” 依我的看法，多进行体育锻炼是解决这个问题的一个好办法。正如有句谚语所说：“只工作不玩耍，聪明孩子也变傻。”
