随着每一次日出，都会有一个新的机会让你的生活变得尽可能美好。
lose one's nerve
失去勇气或胆怯退缩。
nerve除了“神经、神经质”的意思外，本意就含有“勇气、气魄”之意。而这个短语起源于19世纪的美国西部。在西部拓荒时期，牛仔们经常要面对危险和艰难的环境，需要保持冷静和勇气。当有人遇到危险或困难时，如果他们失去了勇气，胆怯退缩，就被认为是lose one's nerve。随着时间的推移，这个习语逐渐进入日常用语中，用于描述情绪上的胆怯或丧失勇气的状态。
与之意思相近的短语还有：
lose courage：失去勇气。
become nervous：变得紧张。
lose composure：失去镇静。
get scared：感到害怕。
back down：退缩。
As the crowd cheered, the tightrope walker took a deep breath and prepared to cross the high wire. But halfway through, fear gripped him. Sweat trickled down his forehead as he felt his legs trembling. He couldn't bear the pressure and lost his nerve. With a heavy heart, he stepped back and descended. It was a moment of disappointment.
当人群欢呼时，走钢丝的表演者深吸一口气，准备踏上高空的钢丝。但走到一半时，恐惧笼罩了他。汗水从他的额头滴落，他感到双腿颤抖。他无法承受压力，失去了勇气。带着沉重的心情，他退了下来。这是一个令人失望的时刻。
