Ví dụ
You shouldn’t have to be a martyr to be a teacher. Let’s do better. Because I know one thing for sure: My colleagues and my students deserve (xứng đáng) it.
A picnic is the first thing on my packing (đóng gói) list; exciting as it is to be on the move again, I haven’t missed the frantic (điên cuồng) pre-boarding dash around the terminal that always terminates at an expensive sandwich. It’s also a good way to use up any last odds and ends in the fridge, though don’t be a martyr to this – if you wouldn’t fancy a vindaloo and pesto wrap at home, eating it in a warm car is unlikely to change your mind.
Totally agree, I dropped a day to combat (chiến đấu) my exhaustion, working, at one point over 45 hours a week for years. Eventually I felt like I was dying on the inside and so unhealthy due to being confined to a desk all day. I decided to refuse to be a martyr to the wage packet, and made some healthy choices for mind and body.
“Those who were rioting (nổi loạn) were not doing so because they want better schools or against house demolitions or electricity supply – they were rioting because they hate you, and if they are stronger than you, will kill you. They say, ‘I want al-Aqsa, and I am willing to be a martyr to get it.’”
