多么美的一天啊。清晨醒来,听见小鸟的歌唱,生活真美好!同时,Faith口语课堂-天天学也开始了新的一课,欢迎大家回来,我是Faith老师,也欢迎新入我们课堂的学员们,准备好了吗?现在开始学英语。
首先,介绍一个口语中常用的词:wimp, n.懦弱的人,无用的人, 胆小的人。
Stop being such a wimp. 别像个窝囊废!
If you agree to all her likes, you are a wimp. 如果你完全赞同她的话,那你真无能。
Harold is a real wimp. He lets everybody take advantage of him. 哈罗德真没用,每个人都可以占他便宜。
He gives me the impression that he is a colorless, indecisive wimp, and not a leader among people.他给我的印象是:他是一个缺乏个性、没有主见的儒弱者,而不是人群中的领导者。
Hopefully they will think you are not a wimp and want to talk to you. 希望她们觉得你并不是个懦夫,想和你说话呢。
下面,我们来学学“觉得理所当然”这个表达法:Take it for granted,认为理所当然,视为当然。
I take it for granted that he will succeed. 我认为他会成功是理所当然的。
I take it for granted you have read this book. 我认为你一定读过这本书。
I take it for granted that they have arrived there already. 我还以为他们已经到那儿了。
But we cannot take it for granted that location alone will ensure our prosperity. 不过,优越的地理位置,并不能保证繁荣。
I take it for granted that he is a native Italian because he speaks Italian so well. 他意大利语说得好极了,所以我就理所当然地把他当成了土生土长的意大利人。
你认为什么事是理所当然的呢? 这里是Faith口语课堂-天天学,我是Faith老师,很喜欢Richy Martin的歌,来听听这首 She' s all I ever had,明天还有约会哦!
