今天我们来学习的表达是：by choice
来看一下英文解释：
If you do something by choice, you do it because you want to and not because you have to
或者看另外一条解释：
intentionally; based on one's own decision or interest
如果你do sth. by choice，就意味着是你自己想做的，而不是你被迫做出来的选择和决定。


eg: Is she single by choice?
她是自愿单身的吗？（而不是被剩下的？）

eg: I wouldn’t go there by choice.
我是不会主动去那里的。

eg: She repeated that she was very comfortable and lived here by choice.
她重复说道，她感觉舒适，是自己主动住到这里的。

eg: I did this by choice.
我是故意这么做的。

eg: I know a lot of these volunteers are forced to be here, but I'm here by choice.

有的时候，你也可以用out of choice来进行换用。

eg: No one forced them to do it. They did it by choice. (They acted out of choice.)
没有人逼他们那么做，他们是主动那么做的。
