LESSON 52 如何表达生活幽默：书虫的故事Part 1. 词汇脱口秀1. temporarya. /tempreri/临时的，暂时的temporarilyadv. /tmprrili/ 【注意发音】If something is temporary, it lasts for only a short time.为啥 temporary 表示“暂时的”？注意： 英文中 tempor 来自拉丁语 tempus，表示“时间”或时间引起的现象同根词：音乐中的拍子，节奏叫 tempo，为啥？contemporary 为啥表示：当代的；同代的？比如：Confucius was contemporary with Laozi. contemporary music场景造句：Andy found a temporary job.He is living at a hotel now, but its only temporary. The hotel is his temporary home.反义词：永久，永恒的：permanent【 per-完全,从头到尾 + -man-停留，驻立 + -ent：从头到尾停留：永久的】分享英文中的两句名言：Being defeated is often a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent.Temporary solutions often become permanent problems.【A short-term solution leads to a long-term problem. 】2. inchn.How long is one inch ?One inch is equal to 2.54 centimetres. There are 12 inches in a foot.你知道下面常见的英制单位么？ 长度：1 inch = 2.54cm 1 foot = 12 inches1 yard = 3 feet(0.91 metres) 1 mile = 1.609km重量：盎司：1 ounce = 28.35 grams磅：1 pound = 16 ounces = 453.6 grams体积/容量：品脱：1 pint = 0.473 litres (US) ;0.568 litres (Britain) I had a pint of beer .加仑：1 gallon = 8 pints = 3.79 litres (US); 4.55 litres (Britain)比如：one gallon of waterEvery inch:When you talk about every inch of an area, you are emphasizing the whole of it.Every inch of space in the tiny shop was crammed with goods.【cram v. 塞进. be crammed with . 塞满了.】He looks every inch the super star.* Give him an inch and he will take a yard/mile.电影Air Force One当中：If you give a mouse a cookie, it's gonna want a glass of milk.3. spacen.Space 既可数又不可数难点：啥时可数 countable，啥时不可数 uncountable？基本逻辑是： 【听记 1】比如：beer 和 coffee 到底可不可数？* A bottle of beer / Two beers.* Coffee: a cup of coffee.I made a coffee for breakfast.1) 空间This table takes up too much space. This table takes up too much room.场景造句：The bedroom was pretty big, there was space for two beds and a large couch. The dining room was also huge, so we had plenty of space to have meals.2) 空位，空地a parking space.I found a free parking space. I'll clear a space for my books.3) 外太空： outer space4. actually adv. 实际上，事实上 = in fact为啥 actually 表示实际上？作为一个更常用在口语中的副词，往往表示强调： 比如：The man spoke English so fluently that I thought he was born and raised in the US. But actually he has never been to the US before.此外，沟通的时候，actually 往往可以礼貌地表达 【听记 2】比如：Hi, Kevin, do you have a minute?Actually, I am busy at the moment . Can I talk to you later ?”【听记答案】1. 可数是指容易规定边界；2. 表达和别人期待不同的观点LESSON 52 如何表达生活幽默：书虫的故事Part 2. 句型精讲本课专题：现在完成进行时课文回放：We have just moved into a new house and I have been working hard all morning.现在完成进行时核心思维: 听记 1解读：I have been working all morning.表示一整个早上一直在忙碌，(现在可能还在做，也可能刚停止)。 这是口语中非常高频的一个时态：场景 1：“Harvards most successful dropout”Bill Gates：Ive been waiting more than 30 years to say this: “Dad, I always told you Id come back and get my degree.”场景 2:Kevin : Hi, Bridget, Why do you look so exhausted ?Bridget: I have been burning the midnight oil preparing for my finals.How have you been ?Kevin : I have been working day in and day out on my paper.场景 3：Michael: I have been thinking about how we might live on Mars.Susan: I am sorry. I have been trying to know what you are talking about.Michael：I have been talking to you for almost an hour!You still don't understand what I mean ?! Susan：I have been wondering whether your ideas are too crazy.特别注意要点 1：深刻理解“持续”的思维：这种“持续发生”的动作也可以是一个 ， 也可以是有间断的 。【听记 2】比如： 下面这些话怎么理解？I have been coming to China for 5 years.Larry has been interviewing famous people all around the world for decades. Larry has been interviewing Bill Gates for an hour.Since I was born, my mom has been saying “You are the greatest kid in the world.”要点 2：和完成时的主要区别：1) 完成时：强调 完成进行： 强调 Wu Song has been drinking for a long time. He is still asking for more wine.Wu Song has drunk 18 bowls of wine but he is still sober.2) 完成时也可表示延续（用延续性动词），这个时候和完成进行时差别较小 比如：I have lived in China for 10 years.基本等于 I have been living in China for 10 years.如果说有两句有一点细微差别的话,那就是完成进行时更强调 。I have been living in China for 10 years. And I think I will settle down in this country.而完成时只是强调动作 。I have lived in China for 10 years. So I am thinking about returning to my home country.但注意：区别这两句话：I have lived in China.I have been living in China.3) 完成进行时更具有 。比如体会：前面提到 Bill Gates 说的这句话：Ive been waiting more than 30 years to say this: “Dad, I always told you Id come back and get my degree.”快速口语造句：I have been looking forward to the trip for a long time. This is the song I have been looking for.I have been knocking on the door for 10 minutes. But no one has answered the door. I have been waiting for him for three hours. But he still hasnt shown up.总结：现在完成进行时的核心思维是 ，可以表示一个 的动作，也可以是一个 的行为；完成时强调 ，完成进行时强调 ，所以在口语中完成进行时有更多的 。【听记 3】欣赏：“优美的”现在完成时：一首浪漫的情歌 Way Back into Love来自英国影星 Hugh Grant(休·格兰特)和美国影星 Drew Barrymore 主演的一部爱情喜剧电影Music and Lyrics【中文译文：共谱恋曲/k 歌情人】电影中：Alex 和 Sophie下面我们来听听这首他们合唱的片段：注意其中大量使用了完成进行时。Way Back Into LoveI've been living with a shadow overheadI've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed I've been lonely for so longTrapped in the past, I just can't seem to move onI've been hiding all my hopes and dreams awayJust in case I ever need them again somedayI've been setting aside timeTo clear a little space in the corners of my mind All I wanna do is find a way back into loveI can't make it through without a way back into love【听记答案】1. 持续发生2. 不间断的延续性动作、非延续性动作3. 持续发生、持续不断、持续重复、结果、持续过程、感情色彩LESSON 52 如何表达生活幽默：书虫的故事Part 3. 故事转述1. 中英文逐句转述我的哥哥 Albert 是个书虫。My brother Albert is a bookworm.【A bookworm is a person who is very fond of reading. 】他的阅读的书籍面很广，包括了传记，诗歌，历史小说，以及科幻小说, 应有尽有。He reads a wide range of books: biographies, poetry, historical fiction, science fiction, you name it.他常常待在房间看一整天的书，也不用休息。He often reads books in his room for a whole day without taking a break.他有多少书呢？一千多本。How many books does he own? More than one thousand!实话说，我怀疑，我这辈子是否能读完一千本书。To be honest, I doubt whether I can read a thousand books in my whole life!【to be honest = Honestly speaking】有那么多“精神食粮”，他好像不需要吃任何真正的食品。With so much food for thought, he doesnt seem to need any real food.【food for thought=something that makes you think carefully】上周，我们搬进了新家。Last week, we moved into a new house.从一大早 Albert 就一直在他的房间里忙碌地整理。Since dawn, Albert had been working hard to get his new room in order.【dawn n. 黎明】考虑到他藏书的数量，这并非易事。It was not an easy job considering the number of books he had.更糟糕的是，他的房间太小了无法容纳这么多的新“居民”。Whats worse, his room was too small for so many new residents.很快，他的房间就“书满为患”，这些书堆满了整个地板。Soon, his room was overflowing with books, which covered every inch of floor space.我帮着他把一个书柜搬上楼。I helped him carry one of his bookcases up the stairs.当看到他放在地上所有的书，我感到非常惊讶，我情不自禁告诉 Albert 那是我看过的最美的地毯。As soon as I saw all his books on the floor, I was astonished and couldnt help telling Albert that it was the most beautiful carpet I had ever seen.看到他踩在这块漂亮的“地毯上”上进出房间, 我又补充说：他根本不需要书柜，因为他可以坐在地上读读地毯。Seeing him walking on this beautiful “carpet” to get in and out of the room, I added that he didnt need bookcases at all, as he could sit on the floor and read the carpet.“绝对是”，他笑笑回答我说，“也许我也不需要床和床垫。”“Absolutely,” he smiled and replied, “ Maybe I dont need a bed or sheets either. ”的确，在一个书虫眼中，没有啥比书更重要的了。Indeed, in the eyes of a bookworm, nothing in this world is more important than books.2. 全英文转述My brother Albert is a bookworm.
