inspiration / 灵感 / (línɡɡǎn)

A: I heard that you have been working on a project related to an art museum recently. How has it been going? 

听说你最近在做一项美术馆相关的作业。现在进展如何？

(tīnɡshuō nǐ zuìjìn zàizuò yīxiànɡ měishùɡuǎn xiānɡɡuān de zuòyè.xiànzài jìnzhǎn rúhé?)

B: Yeah. My teacher has required that I plan an art exhibition, but I haven't found any inspiration.  

是的。我的老师要求我们策划一个美术展,但是我没有什么灵感。

(shìde.wǒde lǎoshī yàoqiú wǒmén cèhuá yīɡè měishù zhǎn, dànshì wǒ méiyǒu shenme línɡɡǎn.)

A: You can try going out and seeking inspiration while walking around. It seems to be easier to find inspiration when we are relaxed.  

你或许可以尝试出去走走,在散步的途中找些灵感。心情放松的时候似乎更能产生灵感。

(nǐ huòxǔ kěyǐ chánɡshì chūqù zǒuzǒu, zài sànbùde túzhōnɡ zhǎoxiē línɡɡǎn.xīnqínɡ fànɡsōnɡ de shíhòu sìhū ɡènɡnénɡ chǎnshēnɡ línɡɡǎn.)

B: You're right. Besides going for a walk, where else can I go to find inspiration?

你说的对。除了散步,我还能到哪里寻找灵感呢？

(nǐ shuōde duì.chúle sànbù, wǒ háinénɡ dào nǎlǐ xúnzhǎo línɡɡǎn ne?)

A: You can also try talking about your current thoughts and brainstorm with friends. Listen to other people to express their thinking is a great way to learn.

你还可以尝试把现有的想法说出来,和朋友头脑风暴。倾听别人的想法是一种学习方式。

(nǐ háikě yǐ chánɡshì bǎ xiànyǒude xiǎnɡfǎ shuōchūlái, hé pénɡyǒu tóunǎo fēnɡbào.qīnɡtīnɡ biérén de xiǎnɡfǎ shì yīzhǒnɡ xuéxí fānɡshì.)

B: Thank you. I will give it a try.  

谢谢你。我会去试试的。
