我总认为有某种力量在指引着我们——叫它上帝也罢,天意也罢,还是命运也罢。

These are all words for things that happen or the force that causes them to happen.以上各词均指机遇、命运、运气。

the force that causes good or bad things to happen to people指机遇、命运、运气:

This ring has always brought me good luck.

这戒指总是给我带来好运。

the way that some things happen without any cause that you can see or understand指偶然、碰巧、意外:

The results could simply be due to chance.

这结果可能纯属意外。

the fact of two things happening at the same time by chance, in a surprising way指出人意料的巧合、巧事:

They met through a series of strange coincidences.

他们因一连串奇妙的巧合而相遇。

something that happens unexpectedly and is not planned in advance指意外、偶然的事:

( rather formal ) luck or chance, especially in the way it affects people's lives尤指影响人生的机会、运气:

( formal ) God, or a force that some people believe controls our lives and the things that happen to us, usually in a way that protects us指上帝、苍天、天佑:

He trusted in divine providence.

他相信上苍。

Providence is usually seen as being kind: even when it sends suffering, this is accepted as being part of God's plan. Fate can be kind, but this is an unexpected gift; just as often, fate is cruel and makes people feel helpless. Destiny is more likely to give people a sense of power: people who have a strong sense of destiny usually believe that they are meant to be great or do great things.
