Michelle: Hello Holly! Today let's discuss the use of "this" and "that."
Michelle: Holly,你好!今天我们来讨论一下“this”和“that”怎么用。
Holly: Sure! "This" and "that" are a singular form used to indicate people, objects and situations.
Holly: 好!“this”和“that”是单数形式,用来指人,物和不同的情况。
Michelle: "This" is used when the person or object is near to us and "that" is used when the person or object is farther from us.
Michelle: 指离我们近的人或物时,用“this”,远的用“that”。
Holly: This room is small. In this sentence, “this" is used to indicate the room we are in now.
Holly: 这是间小房子。这句话里,“this”指离我们现在呆着的这个房间。
Michelle: Great example, Holly! The meeting room down the hall is slightly bigger; I was in that room for yesterday's lesson.
Michelle: 好例子。Holly!会议室 我在那个房间上课来着。
Holly: You used "that" because the room is farther from us than this room we're in now.
Holly: 你用“that”,因为那个房间比这个房间离我们远。
Michelle: That's right. Did you hear? There's a new music professor. I heard he's an excellent teacher, but that guy's hair sure looks weird.
Michelle: 对。你听到了吗?这是一位新音乐老师。我听说他是一位优秀的老师,但是他的头发看起来很奇怪。
Holly: Does it? I didn't have classes yesterday. You used "that guy" to indicate the new professor.
Holly: 是吗?我昨天没上课,你说“那个人”指代新老师。
Michelle: Yes! Would you pass me that wooden jewelry box?
Michelle: 是!你能把那个木首饰盒递给我吗?
Holly: Here you go! Is this the box you want?
Holly: 给你!是这个盒子吗?
Michelle: No, not this one. That box over there is the one I want. We used "this" to indicate the closer box and "that" to indicate the box that is farther away.
Michelle: 不,不是这个盒子。那边的那个才是。我们用“this”指代近处的盒子,用“that”指代远处的盒子。
Holly: Great explanation Michelle! This lesson has become very interesting.
Holly: Michelle,解释的真棒!这课讲的真有意思。
Michelle: Nice example Holly! You used “this” to refer to today's lesson. Before I go to lunch, I need to check my makeup. Where is the washroom?
Michelle: 好例子。你用“this”指代的是“今天的课程”。去吃午饭前,我要检查一下我的妆容。洗手间在哪?
Holly: You can use this one just outside the door. That other washroom (point) at the end of the hall is under maintenance.
Holly: 你可以用门外这个,大厅那头的那个洗手间在维修。

Michelle: 谢谢,Holly!现在来听一些对话示例。
