Last time we learned "So, tell me(something).". 意思是：来吧，说说看。If we want to express "说说看这是怎么回事。". Then how should we put it. Alright, let's get the answer from the following dialogue.

【小题大做——吃透美语】

在以前的好几期中都提到了吃透美语。那究竟何谓吃透呢？小编在这几年的教学中，很多专业研究生，通过专业八级，雅思和托福考试的英语专业学生都问到我一些问题，因此我认为是“二精读”“一精听”。这是我一贯以来的学习法和教学法，在这里和大家分享一下。
1 精读，这个读是指朗读，要学会土生土长美国人的发音方式。
2 精读，这个读是阅读。三个步骤：第一是每个句子中的关键词，甚至是一些小词都要弄清楚用法。第二是要注意分析句子成分，这在翻译，写作和口语上非常重要。
3 精听，要听出每个连读，浊化音之类的语音方面的东西，语音学是我们听力的敌人。

A : I went on a date with Alan last night.
B : Alan is handsome. Tell me what happened.
1 I went on a date with Alan last night.

【小编的建议】
请大家根据下图练习该对话的实际发音。我们听不懂外国人说话和美国影视，一个是因为语速快，还有一个很大的因素是发音的连读，浊化音等等。

A : I went on a date with Alan last night.
B : Alan is handsome. Tell me what happened.
