【Listening skills】
1.Well that's great! It's nice that we have something in common.
common:If something is common, it is found in large numbers or it happens often,普遍,常见
e.g.His name was Hansen, a common name in Norway. 他叫Hansen,这个名字在挪威很常见。
have something in common:If two or more people have something in common, they share the same interests or experiences有共同点,
e.g.He had very little in common with his sister.他和他的姐姐一点儿也不一样。
另外,通过上文中的“I also like going to the movies. ”我们可以得出,男女双方都喜欢看电影,因此他们在电影方面有跟你共同的爱好。
2.The movie theater is always so crowded on the weekends. I like to go to the movies during the week.
on the weekends“在周末的时候”,根据常识我们可以知道,一般来说,电影院在周末的时候人会比较多。并且文中也提到了“always so crowded”,所以我们可以联想出,说话者不喜欢在周末的时候去看电影,而后面的“I like to go to the movies during the week”这句话也正好验证了我们的推测。
3.I like watching comedies, like "Borat."
Not really, I like watching horror movies, like "The Unborn."
英语中,各种电影的表达方式主要有Comedies喜剧片、dramas剧情片和thrillers惊险片。通过说话者的“I like watching comedies, like Borat.”和“Not really, I like watching horror movies, like "The Unborn." ”这两句话,我们可以得到这样的信息,第一个就是两个说话者喜欢的电影不一样,一个是“comedies”,一个是“horror movies”,另外,我们还可以得知,Borat是“comedies”,而The Unborn是“horror movies”。
