托福口語(yǔ)之美國(guó)校園生活9個(gè)常用句子
1. He is a fraternity brother. 他是兄弟會(huì)的一員。
在學(xué)校內(nèi)有很多寫(xiě)著希臘字母的宿舍,這些可不是數(shù)學(xué)系的系館喔。那是兄弟會(huì)的家。兄弟會(huì)其實(shí)算是宿舍的一種,住在這里不見(jiàn)得會(huì)比較便宜,但是可以認(rèn)識(shí)很多人還有參加不完的活動(dòng)和party,還有喝不完的酒。兄弟會(huì)全是男生,可是每個(gè)兄弟會(huì)可以選一個(gè)女生當(dāng)作sweetheart,這可是一種榮譽(yù)。有空去看看他們的網(wǎng)頁(yè),你就可以看到萬(wàn)叢綠中一點(diǎn)紅。
2. She is a sorority sister. 她是姐妹會(huì)的成員。
男生是兄弟會(huì),女生就是姐妹會(huì)了。在男生多的學(xué)校里,sorority 大概就跟臺(tái)大的女生宿舍一樣地吸引眾人的目光吧。尤其是每年秋天,他們都會(huì)招收新會(huì)員(Fall rush),所有的人都會(huì)站在門(mén)口迎接新生,場(chǎng)面好不壯觀!
3. I am returning this book. 我想要還這本書(shū)。
借書(shū)叫borrow a book,還書(shū)是return a book,不過(guò)有趣的是,他們不會(huì)說(shuō)"I return the book.",而會(huì)說(shuō)"I am returning this book." 因?yàn)槭聦?shí)上現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行式有未來(lái)的意思在里面,所以這句話就等于"I will return this book."
4. I want to renew this book 我想續(xù)借我的書(shū)。
Renew 就是“續(xù)借”的意思。比如說(shuō)你去圖書(shū)館借了一本書(shū),書(shū)到期了但是你還想繼續(xù)借這本書(shū),你就可以說(shuō)"I want to renew this book." 任何固定時(shí)間一到要去換約我們都叫renew。例如你的汽車(chē)牌照過(guò)期了,或是你的保單到期了要去更新或是中文里講的續(xù)約,也是用renew. 比如說(shuō),"I want to renew my car insurance for this coming year. "
5. I just bought a brand new car. 我買(mǎi)了一輛新車(chē)。
Brand new 感覺(jué)上比new 還要來(lái)的更新一點(diǎn)。凡是全新,剛出廠的東西叫brand new,可能是說(shuō)連商標(biāo)(brand) 都還在上面的意思吧!
6. He is really a tough guy; he takes no prisoner. 他很?chē)?yán)格,手下絕不留情。
這是我聽(tīng)老美形容他們教授的,就是說(shuō)他們教授很?chē)?yán)格,而且絕不留活口(就像臺(tái)灣說(shuō)的大刀,掛人無(wú)數(shù))。所謂takes no prisoner指的是戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)時(shí)不收戰(zhàn)俘,抓到全部殺死的意思,也就是說(shuō)夠狠。
老美常用tough 來(lái)形容一件事情的困難或是一個(gè)人的強(qiáng)硬態(tài)度,例如,"Today is a tough day for me." 就是說(shuō)今天過(guò)得很不容易啦。要是說(shuō)"The professor is tough." 則是說(shuō)這個(gè)教授教課很?chē)?yán)格,很不好混的意思。要是別人遇到這種tough 的教授,你就可以鼓勵(lì)他,"Tough it out!" 就是說(shuō)把它撐過(guò)去。
同樣地,這句話你也可以說(shuō)成"The professor goes for kill." 就是說(shuō)這個(gè)教授支持殺戮,下手絕不留情。
7. It's a cake course. 這門(mén)課很容易過(guò)。
我們說(shuō)一門(mén)課很好修,就用cake course 這個(gè)字,或是只說(shuō)It's a cake,別人也是會(huì)了解的。還有我聽(tīng)一個(gè)從柏克萊大學(xué)來(lái)的學(xué)生說(shuō),他們把很好修的課程叫Micky Mouse,很有趣吧? 大家參考參考。
8. Which department is she in? 她是哪一個(gè)系的?
我們都知道主修是用major 這個(gè)字,簡(jiǎn)單地問(wèn)法就是,"What's your major?" 但是你也可以用which field 或是which department 來(lái)代替。比如說(shuō)有人來(lái)演講,你想知道他是什么系的教授,你就可以問(wèn)"Which department is she in?" 或是"Which field is she in?" 還有一種最口語(yǔ)問(wèn)主修的問(wèn)法,就是問(wèn)人家"What are you studying?" 就可以了。
9. Is there any way we can move it? 我們有沒(méi)有辦法換個(gè)地方?
Way 就是辦法,你可以說(shuō),"Is there some other way...?" 就是有沒(méi)有其它的辦法。move it 可以指很多事,如換教室,換地點(diǎn),都可以用move,不要再說(shuō)change place 了。這是有一次老師宣布在某間教室考試,可是因?yàn)槟情g教室平時(shí)就很吵,所以我的同學(xué)就舉手說(shuō),"Is there any way we can move it?"

有些父母不配做孩子的老師,對(duì)孩子有不良影響
2、同意父母是最好的老師

(2)父母和我們最為親密,在任何時(shí)候,都會(huì)毫無(wú)保留地給我們知識(shí) (3)父母最了解我們,所以他們給我們的建議和意見(jiàn)都是最有針對(duì)性的
2. ■61 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents or other adult relatives should make important decisions for their older (15- to 18-year-old) teenage children. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
參考分析:
表明立場(chǎng):這樣的做法有一定的道理。
? 支持這樣的做法的理由:older teenage children還不夠成熟(immature),考慮不夠周全(inconsiderate),尤其涉及到經(jīng)濟(jì)相關(guān)的決定時(shí),缺乏獨(dú)立承擔(dān)能力(incapable of being independent)。 ? 然而,“如何保證parents或者adult relatives所作的決定就是正確的”也是個(gè)問(wèn)題。
?
另外,總是把孩子排除在決定權(quán)之外,是否會(huì)使孩子變得“沒(méi)能力做出任何決定”?the ability to make sound decision是人生道路上很重要的能力之一。

61、同意父母和家屬應(yīng)當(dāng)為15-18歲的孩子做重要的決定

(2)15-18歲的人沒(méi)有足夠資金來(lái)做決定。父母需要為他們出錢(qián),所以父母要做這個(gè)決定。比如說(shuō)上私立或者公立學(xué)校 (3)父母對(duì)于15-18歲的孩子來(lái)說(shuō)對(duì)他們更了解。所以他們做的決定是更正確。
3. ■179 In your opinion, what are some of the qualities of a good parent? Use reasons and specific examples to explain why these characteristics are important. ★ [加拿大2006.8.12]
參見(jiàn):[15]
179 好的父母的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是: (1)愛(ài)護(hù)孩子 (2)在孩子處于困難的時(shí)候給予他幫助 (3)誠(chéng)實(shí),正直
In my point of view, good parent should have several crucial characters. First and the foremost, they have responsibility. They consider it is their responsible to look after the kids and lead them to the right way. They care everything about the kids. Secondly, they must be very patient, and have good temper. They know how to control themselves when they are angry, and teach the kids patiently. It is very important because their temple and attitude to their kids will influence them a lot in the rest of life. At last, they should understand the difference between two generations. That means they can tolerate the kids when they do something new and the parents should allow for this.
I think it?s very important for a parent to be honest, supportive and understanding. First, honesty is a crucial character for a good parent because being honest will set a good example for the children. When I was little, I once skipped classes to play and cheated my parents when I got home. My father scolded me and told me stories about honesty for 3 hours, and I believe I have learned a lot from him. Also, being supportive is important for a parent too. Even though parents might not always be able to help the children academically or financially, still, they may always support their children mentally. Last but certainly not the least, understanding. As known to all, there is a so-called generation gap which makes it difficult for the effective communication between parents and children. But I believe with more understanding of the younger generation?s life style, parents will gain more respect from the children, and the family atmosphere will be filled with happiness and joy.
4. ■114 Some people think that the family is the most important influence on young adults. Other people think that friends are the most important influence on young adults. Which view do you agree with? Use examples to support your position.
參見(jiàn):[66]114、 家庭對(duì)于年輕的成年人有最大的影響
(1)父母是他們的第一個(gè)老師,所以年輕的成年人傾向與聽(tīng)父母的意見(jiàn) (2)年輕的成年人與父母的相處時(shí)間最長(zhǎng),父母的性格對(duì)他們的影響最大
(3)家庭的經(jīng)濟(jì)情況也影響著年輕的成年人的發(fā)展。有些家庭窮,孩子無(wú)法繼續(xù)念書(shū)
