new age指的是伴随而来的不同于正常西方文化的心理活动。这些包括占星术、冥想、替代医学、治疗、结晶等等。它带来个人的改变和内心的舒适,不受一种宗教或习俗的约束。 new age也意味着新的时代或时代,新的做事方式。示例: My friend is getting into all of this new age stuff. She has all these crystals in her room! (一个朋友对新时代的东西很着迷。房间里到处都是水晶!) 例子: I was told meditation is quite controversial growing up, but it really helps me calm down. (我从小就听说冥想有利有弊,但冥想让我的心灵平静。)示例: I've found part of the new age movement quite helpful. I really enjoy reading my horoscopes in the morning. (我发现一些新时代运动非常有益。我真的很喜欢在早上阅读我的星座。) 示例: The invention of the machines was the start of a new age for civilisation. (机器的发明开创了文明的新纪元。)
