STARTING A CONVERSATION WITH A FRIEND 朋友聊天
With friends, you can use informal English expressions like these:
和朋友在一起的時(shí)候你就可以用一些非正式的英語表達(dá),以下這些口頭語可供參考:
What’s up?
How’s it going?
The correct answer to “What’s up?” is “Not much.” You can then add a detail about what’s happening in your life at the moment. If someone says “How’s it going?” you can answer “Good” or “Not so good” and then say why.
“What’s up?”的正確回答應(yīng)該是“Not much”,你還可以加上一點(diǎn)你生活中正在發(fā)生的事情以作補(bǔ)充。如果有人說“How’s it going?”,你可以回答“Good” 或者 “Not so good”然后說說為什么。
STARTING A CONVERSATION WITH A COLLEAGUE 同事聊天
In the office, you use slightly more formal English, such as these common expressions:
在辦公室里你就可以用一些稍微正式一點(diǎn)的英語表達(dá)方式,就像以下這些習(xí)慣用法:
Hi, John. How are you doing?
How’s your day going?
We’re sure having a busy/slow day today.
Have you heard the news about ________?
(on Friday周五): Have you got any plans for the weekend?
(on Monday周一): How was your weekend?
You can talk about projects you’re working on, or about hobbies you have outside work. Current national and international news is also a good topic of conversation.
你可以聊聊你正在從事的項(xiàng)目,或者工作以外的興趣愛好。最近的國(guó)內(nèi)、國(guó)際新聞也是適合聊天的好話題哦。
STARTING A CONVERSATION WITH A FRIEND WHO YOU HAVEN’T SEEN IN A LONG TIME 和許久未見的朋友聊天
Here are some common expressions to start a conversation with someone you see after a long separation:
以下這些表達(dá)方式,適用于和久未謀面的朋友聊天:
Hi Paula! How have you been?
Long time no see!
So, what have you been up to lately?
How’s your family?
Are you still working at ABC Company?
In this case, you can ask about news in your friend’s work, study, family, and hobbies. The friend will probably ask you about recent developments in your own life, too.
在這種情況下,你可以問問你的朋友事業(yè)、學(xué)業(yè)、家庭、興趣愛好方面有沒有什么新變化。與此同時(shí),你的朋友也很可能會(huì)問問你最近生活的進(jìn)展。
STARTING A CONVERSATION AT A PARTY OR WEDDING 在派對(duì)或婚禮上聊天
I don’t think we’ve met – I’m Shayna.
Are you from New York?
So, how do you know Mary?
Have you tried the chocolate cake? It’s delicious!
If you’re at a party or wedding, you can start a conversation by asking how the person knows the host of the party (or the people getting married). You can also comment about the food and drinks, or about the music.
如果你在一個(gè)派對(duì)或者婚禮上,你可以問問對(duì)方是怎么認(rèn)識(shí)派對(duì)的主人(或者舉辦婚禮的新人),以此開始對(duì)話。你也可以評(píng)論一下派對(duì)或婚禮上的食物、飲料或者音樂。
STARTING A CONVERSATION AT A CONFERENCE OR WORK EVENT 在會(huì)議或工作場(chǎng)所對(duì)話
I don’t think we’ve met – I’m Shayna.
So, where are you from?
What did you think of the speaker?
That was an excellent workshop – I learned a lot. How about you?
The expression “I don’t think we’ve met” can be used in professional situations too. You can ask about the person’s job, what company they are from, and their opinions about the conference events.
“I don’t think we’ve met”這種表達(dá)法既可以用于非正式場(chǎng)合,也可以用于正式場(chǎng)合。你可以問對(duì)方的工作情況,他們是哪個(gè)公司的,以及他們對(duì)會(huì)議內(nèi)容的看法。
STARTING A CONVERSATION WITH SOMEONE YOU HAVE JUST BEEN INTRODUCED TO 和剛認(rèn)識(shí)的人對(duì)話
Nice to meet you!
How do you two know each other?
So, what do you do for a living? (= what is your job?)
What are you studying?
How long have you been (a journalist / doing yoga / interested in music)?
How did you get into it?
Imagine you have a friend, Nora, who introduces you to her friend Ryan. You can ask about how they know each other, and about Ryan’s job. If Nora says Ryan is a student, you can ask about his area of study and what year of college he’s in. If Nora introduces Ryan as a journalist, or a friend from yoga class, or a musician, you can ask about how long he has done that activity, or how he first got interested in it. His answer will then provide material to continue the conversation.
想象一下你有個(gè)朋友Nora,她把你介紹給了她的朋友Ryan。你可以問問他們是怎么認(rèn)識(shí)的,也可以問問Ryan的工作。如果Nora說Ryan是個(gè)學(xué)生,你就可以問問他的專業(yè)和年級(jí)。如果Nora介紹Ryan是個(gè)記者、或者是從瑜伽班認(rèn)識(shí)的朋友,或者是個(gè)音樂家,你就可以問問他干那行多久了,或者他為什么對(duì)這個(gè)感興趣。他的答案也能給你提供展開對(duì)話的素材。
STARTING A CONVERSATION WITH SOMEONE YOU MEET OUTSIDE 和外面遇到的人對(duì)話
It’s a beautiful day, isn’t it?
It looks like it’s going to rain/snow.
Can you believe all this rain/snow we’ve been having?
Sure is a hot/cold one today!
Your dog is so cute! What’s his name?
If you’re in a park, on the street, etc., the most common way to start a conversation is by talking about the weather.
如果你在公園里、街上或者別的地方,要想打開話匣子,最通常的方式就是先聊聊天氣。
STARTING A CONVERSATION WITH A STRANGER IN OTHER SITUATIONS 在其他情況下和陌生人聊天
The secret to starting a conversation with someone you don’t know is to make a comment about the current social context. Here are a few examples of how to do this:
和陌生人搭話的秘訣是,就當(dāng)前所處情景發(fā)表評(píng)論。下面有幾個(gè)例子,教你什么場(chǎng)合說什么話:
美術(shù)館At an art gallery: “That’s an interesting painting. What do you think of it?”
酒吧At a bar: “This is a great song – I love Latin music. How about you?”
體育比賽現(xiàn)場(chǎng)At a sports game: “Wow, that was a great play! So, who’s your favorite player?”
咖啡廳At a cafe: “Boy, do I need a coffee!”
音樂會(huì)或者重大活動(dòng)At a concert or event: “What a great turnout! Have you ever been here before?”
操場(chǎng)At a playground: “My kids are sure full of energy today!
As in the example of the cafe and playground, you don’t need to ask a direct question. You can simply make a comment to the other person, and this is like an invitation for the other person to comment, too. This can then begin a conversation.
就像以上咖啡館和操場(chǎng)兩個(gè)例子一樣,你不需要開門見山地問問題,你可以簡(jiǎn)單地向?qū)Ψ桨l(fā)表一句你的評(píng)論,就好像是邀請(qǐng)對(duì)方一起加入評(píng)論,這樣同樣可以開始一個(gè)對(duì)話。
旅游英語情景口語對(duì)話:迪士尼
加州迪斯尼樂園(Disneyland Park in California)位于美國(guó)加利福尼亞州阿納海姆市(Anaheim)迪斯尼樂園度假區(qū),于1955 年 7 月 17 日開業(yè),是世界上第一個(gè)迪斯尼主題樂園,被人們譽(yù)為地球上最快樂的地方。
旅游英語情景口語對(duì)話:迪斯尼樂園A Dream World: Disneyland
SAM: It sure is hot. Why don't we go in the Haunted House?
At least it will be air conditioned.
ALICE: I've told you a thousand times. I don't want to go in the Haunted House.
It's too scary!
SAM: Well. Maybe I'll go alone then. I really don't want to miss it.
ALICE: Go alone if you want. I will wait at that cafe and have a soda.
SAM: It might take a long time. Because there is a line, you know.
ALICE: I know. But if you don't go in the Haunted House, you won't be happy.
So I will wait for you. It's no problem.
SAM: Thanks.
ALICE: How was it?
SAM: I'm sorry it took so long.
ALICE: Don't worry about it. But how was it?
SAM: Alice, it really was great.
I think it was the most interesting thing here. You really should go in.
ALICE: No, I don't want to.
SAM: Really. The special effects are fantastic.
You shouldn't be scared. You would really enjoy it.
ALICE: Sam, I never like Haunted Houses.
When I was a kid, I didn't like them. when I was in high school, I didn't like them.
when I was in college, I didn't like them. So why should I like them now?
SAM: But this is maybe one of the best Haunted Houses in North America! It's different.
ALICE: Why don't we go to the Epcot Center instead?
They have displays from many cultures around the world.
SAM: I saw that in the guide.
It looks like they have different restaurants and different kinds of architecture.
Do you want to go?
ALICE: Yes. That is something I will enjoy.
SAM: Alright, let's go then. How many tickets do we have left?
ALICE: We still have most of the tickets we bought.
We can go on a lot of different rides if you like.
SAM: I was only interested in the Haunted House and the roller coaster rides.
The other rides are for kids.
ALICE: Let's start walking to the Epcot Center then.
According to this map, it is up this pathway here.
SAM: Alright, let's go.

解析:針對(duì)文章本身,我們秉承一貫的解析傳統(tǒng),將原文和考點(diǎn)的出處以及正確答案分別作了標(biāo)注,考生可以一一對(duì)應(yīng),自行找出字里行間的考點(diǎn)。
做題的時(shí)候一定要和短文一樣對(duì)題目的出題位置有明確的把握,位置感很重要。一般而言,對(duì)話時(shí),開頭的客套以及問候與結(jié)尾的道別結(jié)束語很少出題,而對(duì)話中段往往才是重點(diǎn)。
從重點(diǎn)劃線部分我們發(fā)現(xiàn)長(zhǎng)對(duì)話和短文題目做題有著驚人的相似!問答式的考點(diǎn)(一問一答中Question針對(duì)問題發(fā)問,回答是正確答案考點(diǎn)),分層次的`考察(Top-Down Level),建議請(qǐng)求的運(yùn)用。特別明顯的是對(duì)話的開頭部分一直在糾纏Green Peace如何以及Peter怎么樣,所以只考察了一道題目,第二道題目直到對(duì)話的中部才出現(xiàn),因?yàn)閮蓚(gè)人直到那時(shí)才從Green Peace的基本介紹轉(zhuǎn)到Peter的工作和日常事務(wù)這個(gè)話題上來。此外,這則對(duì)話還秉承了passage的一個(gè)重要的考察方式,就是在對(duì)話的開頭部分一定會(huì)出題目。這一點(diǎn)的考察利用的是考生往往很難在一個(gè)段落剛開始的時(shí)候集中注意力,所以這時(shí)候考察的題目難度就顯得很高。
另外,24題的考法是長(zhǎng)對(duì)話中最典型的一種,就是針對(duì)動(dòng)作行為進(jìn)行發(fā)問,考點(diǎn)在于考生需要聽明白人物發(fā)出的動(dòng)作是什么,原文的動(dòng)詞harass和選項(xiàng)的harass是一摸一樣,屬于最簡(jiǎn)單的考法,而且原文重復(fù)兩次,因此考生對(duì)此即便是不知道harass是什么意思也能選對(duì)。
25題的考法是一貫的長(zhǎng)對(duì)話結(jié)尾題,往往以態(tài)度判斷和結(jié)論作為考察對(duì)象,此題選項(xiàng)均為態(tài)度詞,很容易判斷,另外,注意到選項(xiàng)呈現(xiàn)“三負(fù)一正”的格局,因此答案是顯然的。
綜上所述,長(zhǎng)對(duì)話并不可怕,它結(jié)合了短對(duì)話對(duì)問答句式,態(tài)度判斷和關(guān)鍵場(chǎng)景賜予的考察和短文部分對(duì)文章層次和理解能力的要求。所以做這樣的題目往往需要具備綜合的素質(zhì),既要注意其中的細(xì)節(jié),又要注意整體的把握,還要能夠應(yīng)付二篇文章中一共7道題目的題量,對(duì)于綜合能力的要求是顯著提高了。建議考生在練習(xí)的時(shí)候可以先把短對(duì)話和長(zhǎng)段子兩部分分別練好,再尋找一些長(zhǎng)對(duì)話題目進(jìn)行綜合練習(xí)。我們熟悉的雅思考試和托?荚嚨恼骖}中都有大量的長(zhǎng)對(duì)話題目可供大家參考。
做題建議:
1.提前瀏覽,有備而聽
對(duì)于任何一種考試來說,題目本身其實(shí)也是線索,只要運(yùn)用得當(dāng),勢(shì)必獲益非淺。所以,考試時(shí)在聽力考試錄音開始之前要盡可能抽時(shí)間瀏覽所有選項(xiàng),以便預(yù)測(cè)對(duì)話的主題和相關(guān)細(xì)節(jié)內(nèi)容。
當(dāng)然,從錄音材料看來,通過instruction我們知道,短對(duì)話和長(zhǎng)對(duì)話之間幾乎沒有什么時(shí)間間隔,所以不能等到短對(duì)話結(jié)束時(shí)再來瀏覽長(zhǎng)對(duì)話選項(xiàng),而應(yīng)在放Section A的Direction時(shí)就開始。為了顧全長(zhǎng)短對(duì)話,我們的策略是:考生可以先迅速瀏覽前四個(gè)短對(duì)話的選項(xiàng),用以備聽做題,而從第五個(gè)對(duì)話開始,每個(gè)短對(duì)話之間都有15秒左右的時(shí)間間隔,考生可利用這段時(shí)間來預(yù)讀下一題的選項(xiàng)。當(dāng)讀完前四個(gè)短對(duì)話的選項(xiàng)后,考生應(yīng)在Directions結(jié)束前,迅速瀏覽第一個(gè)長(zhǎng)對(duì)話的所有選項(xiàng),盡可能找出相關(guān)線索。根據(jù)樣卷錄音,Section A的Directions大約持續(xù)一分20秒左右的時(shí)間,如果加上考場(chǎng)試音的時(shí)間則更長(zhǎng)。這足可以讓考生預(yù)讀前四個(gè)短對(duì)話的選項(xiàng)和第一個(gè)長(zhǎng)對(duì)話的所有選項(xiàng)。
2.分析選項(xiàng),預(yù)測(cè)內(nèi)容
選項(xiàng)的預(yù)讀是對(duì)考生閱讀能力的考核,能不能在40秒左右的時(shí)間內(nèi)看完第一個(gè)長(zhǎng)對(duì)話后的4題12個(gè)選項(xiàng)將是制勝的關(guān)鍵因素之一。這需要考生在考前經(jīng)過專門的快速閱讀的訓(xùn)練,并加以合理的應(yīng)試技巧,方能臨場(chǎng)奏效。
在分析選項(xiàng)的部分,希望考生能針對(duì)如下三個(gè)關(guān)鍵部分進(jìn)行快速判斷:
A。人物關(guān)系(Relationship,鄰居?夫妻?同學(xué)?師生?同事等,能夠?yàn)楹竺孀鲱}判斷人物身份起到良好的鋪墊)。
B。動(dòng)作行為 (動(dòng)詞和動(dòng)詞結(jié)構(gòu)往往是最重要的考察對(duì)象之一)。
C。態(tài)度詞 (長(zhǎng)對(duì)話結(jié)尾往往涉及態(tài)度判斷和結(jié)論)
3. 邊聽邊選,不要走神
盡量在聽的時(shí)候確定哪個(gè)選項(xiàng)能夠最大程度的吻合,這是做短文聽力的宗旨,同樣適用于長(zhǎng)對(duì)話。平時(shí)訓(xùn)練做到“邊聽邊記”、強(qiáng)調(diào)語言輸出的強(qiáng)化訓(xùn)練為主,上了考場(chǎng)強(qiáng)調(diào)“邊聽邊選”。最后聽問題確定自己的正確答案,因?yàn)槁犃r(shí)間間隔很短,因此哪怕是猜的答案,一旦作出判斷,就不要過多糾纏于這一分。集中注意力到下一題當(dāng)中。

我想對(duì)此發(fā)表一下我的見解。人們問我:“為什么你這么忙?還有時(shí)間看電影?”。我確實(shí)很忙,但我也確實(shí)看了很多電影。我鼓勵(lì)人們,如果你想知道當(dāng)下和未來的趨勢(shì),你就需要看電影。想要與當(dāng)下的年輕人保持與時(shí)俱進(jìn),就看看電影。我看了《碟中諜4》,那好像是在2011年拍的,對(duì)吧?而電影里的面部識(shí)別技術(shù)我們?cè)诮衲陝倓偘l(fā)布了這樣的技術(shù)。
阿湯哥:看電影也能給人帶來夢(mèng)想,有夢(mèng)想并有創(chuàng)造力是很重要的事情,要成為自己生命中最堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的。我覺得看電影也能夠讓人放飛夢(mèng)想并將其利用來創(chuàng)造。你必須要能夠有自己的夢(mèng)想并創(chuàng)造自己的生活。
馬云:活人與死人的最大區(qū)別就是活著的人有夢(mèng)想。
主持人:在電影《碟中諜5》中,你既是制片人,又是主演,又是特技演員。請(qǐng)問你是如何平衡這一切的呢?
阿湯哥:團(tuán)隊(duì)協(xié)作。我和我欣賞的人一起工作,比如克里斯托夫,還有親密的朋友們和有才華的人們一起工作,遇見了很棒的人。我遇見了很多比我聰明的人,很有才華的人,比如說弗格森。這就是我們所做的。我每周七天都在工作,事實(shí)上我現(xiàn)在正在南美拍片子,我是在周末的時(shí)間里飛到中國(guó)來到這里的,這樣是我與派拉蒙、和梅根合作時(shí)的工作方式。每個(gè)人都是團(tuán)隊(duì)的一份子,很幸運(yùn)有這么多有才華的人在完成他們的工作,并共同協(xié)作。也許電影通常是兩個(gè)小時(shí)左右,但在成型之前我們每周要工作七天來完成。我承認(rèn)我還挺樂于其中的,我必須承認(rèn)我真的很喜歡有壓力的感覺,我的朋友們都知道。
