Yahoo! 知識+: unfinished block點解?

unfinished block點解?




翻釋呢一句啦
live from hand to mouth in a two-bedroom home in an unfinished block




unfinished (adj.) 未完成的

block (n.) 大樓

unfinished block 

在這句的意思應該是可能是指 

1. 未供完的單位

或者 

2. 是該大樓還是未完工

我想要看上文下理才能理解

live from hand to mouth in a two-bedroom home in an unfinished block

住在一個未供完按揭的兩房單位,生活僅夠糊口。

聽歌學英文: Mariah Carey - Hero




Hmm
There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside 
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

Oh oooh
Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away, hey yeah
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

That a hero lies in you
Mhhh
That a hero lies in
You
