最近在奥克兰跟朋友聊远程工作，  
她说 freedom 和 discipline 是一体两面。  
我一听，这不就是 "two sides of the same coin" 吗？  
回来一查，老外真的天天用这句聊哲理。  
整理好了，分享给你。

**1\. Risk and reward are two sides of the same coin.**

**💡 使用提醒**

- 记结构，别记单词。只要记住 "\[A\] and \[B\] are two sides of the same coin"，往里填词就行。
- 说的时候 coin 别加 s，是一枚硬币的两面，不是两枚。
- 这句自带哲理感，聊工作、聊生活、聊社会都能用，比 "on the other hand" 高级多了。
- 别直译成 "one body two faces"，老外完全听不懂。
- A 和 B 可以是好事配好事，也可以是好事配坏事，关键是它们本质相连。
