模拟对话
为他感到骄傲
Matthwe:An Lee is the first Asian to win an Oscar Award.I am so proud of him.
马修:李安是奥斯卡金像奖第一位亚洲导演.我真为他感到骄傲。
EIizabeth:I can't argue with that.He is even humbler after getting the award.
伊莉莎白:我同意。他得奖以后更谦虚了。
Mattbew说出为李安感到骄傲,Elizabeth也这么想,因此深表同意。这的确也是不争的事实!
再多学一句
★Down to earth 实实在在
脚踏实地可以说"down to earth",形容一个人说话、做事实在,不推诿、脚踏实地。
模拟对话
凡事都要公平
Matthew:I think teachers Should be fair to every student.
马修:我认为老师应该公平对待每位学生。
EIizabeth:It realIy annoys me when teachers pay more anention to some students than to others.
伊莉莎白:我真看不过那些对某些学生比对其他同学还要照顾的老师。
Matthew:I think it's even worse when teachers pick on some students more than others.
马修:更糟糕的是老师特别找某些学生麻烦。
EIizabeth:I can't argue with that.
伊莉莎白:我同意。
短短几句话,也许道出很多学生的心声,当你认同一个人的观点时,“I can'targuc with that”就可以强烈说明你和对方是同一阵线的。
模拟对话
等太久了
Mathew:I have waited 20 minutes for the bus. Buses should come every 1O minutes instead of every 20 minutes.
马修:我已经等20分钟了。公车应该每IO分钟来一班,而不是20分钟来一班。
Elizabeth:I can't argue with that.Buses here take forcver to come. Someiimes they comc cvery 30 minutes or even 40 minutes.
伊莉莎白:我同意。这边的公车要等好久喔,有时候30分钟甚至40分钟才来一班呢!
Mathew: At this rate,it would be faster to get there by walking!
马修:这样看来,走路可能比等公车还快呢。
等公车的确是一件令人不耐烦的事,特别是赶时间的时候。因此Elizabeth对Matthew说的话深表同感。
