随耳入心|Yesterday Once More
Friday
When friends talk about their school time, the song Yesterday Once More always appears in my mind. Rememberd that the first time I heard this song which was from my English teacher when I was in junior high. Her teaching method in class always attracted me a lot. And I appreciate her a lot for her helping my language study. Without her guidance, I might be a total illiteracy in English.
当朋友们谈起学生时代，这首歌便会浮现在我的脑海。记得第一次接触英语是在初中，也在那时从英语老师那里听到这首歌。我很感谢她和她的课吸引着我，否则只有"英语"认识我，我却不认识它。
Nowadays most of my friends of high school are working in different cities striving for their careers. Their lives are full filled with work that it’s hard to meet each other even though some of them live in the same city. Along with time passing, I can not help missing my old friends and the happy time we shared in the past. Then I recall the lyric: “Looking back on how it was in years gone by”.
现在很多朋友都在不同的地方，为各自的事业奋斗，就算在一个地方，每年也只见几次。不知不觉中，思念溢满心头。就像歌词所说"回忆过去，已不再"。但是曾经拥有过。
Though we have little time to meet or have a drink together, there’s one thing we can do is to call each other and just pick up the phone. All the haunting memory come back to your minds when we talk on line and imagine our future together.
如果我们没有时间去见面、喝茶或者其他，有一点是可以掌控的，那就是打电话给你的朋友吧。回忆过去、谈谈现在、畅想未来。
Yesterday Once More is so classical which used to be familiar to the majority of people. How do you feel when you listen to it again?
大部分朋友应该都听过这首昨日重现，只是不知再听时，你有什么样感觉……

后记
在Karen的墓碑上刻着这样简单的文字："A star on earth, a star in heaven." 在歌迷心中，似乎Karen还在深情地唱着：“And when my life is over, remember when we were together, we were alone and I was singing this song for you!” 她仍旧是邻家那个嗓音恬美的女孩，和她的名字卡朋特一样纯朴。
