词汇与语法
一、英语发音是橡皮筋(强弱节奏)
- 中文节拍:等长。英语节拍:强弱交替。
- I WANT to Go to the market.(强 弱 强 弱 弱)
- 肯定 vs 否定:I WAS here. / I wasn't here.
- I DID give him a bottle of beer.(did 强调)
- 弱音能力:做一次很简单,长久把持这份能力靠无数次重复。
二、说话先有情绪:连词连接
- 并列连词:and / so / but / for(实际动词是主词)
- 从属连词:when / because / although / while(需要情绪递进)
- 例句:He's smart, but he's bad at ... / Although he is smart, he is bad at ...
口语示范:morning or evening(放空)
I am really into quietness, so I prefer evening. I can zone out 放空 during night time, you know — but I feel lonely sometimes.
三、动词递进 + 名词性从句
make 的用法
- make sb do sth / make sb adj:makes it a 10/10;practice makes it perfect.
名词性从句(充当名词的完整句)
- what 从句 = "我需要的":a basket of blueberries is what I need. Yeah, that's what I need.
- 介词表示逻辑关系:I am interested in the development of AI.
- 书在桌上:The book on the table.
听力范例:Children's Engineering Workshops
they design a cover to protect an egg;they compete to build the highest tower;a car that is powered by a balloon;the force of the air in that actually powers the car and makes it move along.
Overcooked! 2 is a game about synchronicity disguised as a game about cooking. To play it well, you need complete trust, perfect timing, and the kind of calm that lets people move as one while everything burns around them. Finding someone who laughs with you through the chaos takes it to a 10/10.
四、找主要动词(阅读三步法)
- 只划主干的动词
- 谁干了啥?谁是谁?
- 联系上下句(递进?反对?互补?)
句型点
- It is so nice to have you. = To have you is so nice.(it 形式主语)
- To better understand the judgments people make about their own and others' abilities, it is useful to learn about people's implicit theories.
