日期:2011-05-25 13:30

(单词翻译:单击)

Morning!I am Juliet. Nice to meet you through network. Hope we could spend a wonderful morning together. An hour in the morning is worth two hours in the evening.

一天之计在于晨,若您有个美好的晨间生活,相信您一天的生活都是美好的,您会由此而滋生快乐之感。A hard beginning makes a good ending. 常言道:善始善终。

【温故知新】
Yesterday, we learned "Just come out and say it ." which is used to ask somebody to speak out something that others don't know and make it be known to someone else. We put emphasis on "come out" and "just" in study and left some excises for you to do. Okay, now, I will let the answers out in the open.

1 劳驾您借我这本书看看,好吗?Could you just lend me this book of yours to me, please?【点评】could somebody just do something, please? 这个句型用得好,用just取代了人们常用的please,这样语言新颖。

2 对不起,我这样做实在是有难言之隐。I did it in such a way because I just had some secret sorrow deep in my heart. 【点评】1 just用得好,代替了“Sorry”,语言有新意,有亮点。2 Secrete sorrow——难言之隐。3 Deep in one's heart 某人内心深处,注意这里deep作为副词用。

3 说实话,我好像爱上你了。I'm just going to come out and say that I think I've had a crush on you. 【点评】
1 这里会举一反三,而不是是套用句子“Just come out and say it”, 而是弄懂了这个it指代的就是后面的那句话——我好像爱上你了所以这里用含有宾语从句的复合句把要用两句话表达的意思用一句话就表达出来,这样在文章中句子显得逻辑性强。一个句子容量很大 —— 一个句子就能表达出很多意思。2这里有个非常精彩的恋爱方面的短语:have a crush on somebody意思是:对某人意思,爱上某人了。

4 说实话,Bechham是英国国宝。I'm just going to come out and say it. Bechham is am English treasure. 5 我被吓出了一身冷汗。I was so frightened that I came out in sweat. 【点评】
1 so...that...这个短语用得很好,把两句话而连接成一句很有逻辑性的句子。 2 Come out in sweat: 出汗。

6 月季花要开了。The monthly roses will come out soon.

7 相片冲洗得不好。The pictures didn't come out.

8 住嘴,这样的话你也说得出口。Keep your mouth shut. You can come out with such a word. 【点评】1 Keep your mouth shut. 这是个很经典的口语句子。2 如果在写作中,用come out with something 比直接用speak out something来得更为精彩。3 此外,注意说出某事,句子为:something comes out. 这里主语是物。如果是人的话,come out后一定要和介词with 连用,即为:somebody comes out with something.

9 他讲了几个故事。He came out with a few stories. 【点评】同第八道翻译题。

10 那年他又发表了一篇文章。That year he came out with another article.【点评】1 这里使用come out 比直接用publish要好,这个在考级作文中式可以加分的。2 如果主语是物,可以直接用come out, 但是主语是人,说某人发表了某物,就要和介词with 连用。

【影视实际发音】

I'd rather not tell you everything. [.aidra:ðə'nɔ'dlju:'(w)evriθiŋ]
1 not tell you
①这个意群中的not是以爆破辅音[t]结尾,而tell也是以同样的爆破辅音[t]开头,两个音紧接着爆破,那要震耳欲聋了,因此not中的[t]为了大家耳朵的健康,就不显身手了, 省略数为['no'del]。
② tell you
这个意群中的tell 是以辅音[l]结尾,you的发音为半元音[ju:], 异性相吸,辅音[l]和元音[ju:]一拍即合,连读为[lju:].
2 you everything
这个单独拿出来不是一个意群,照常理来说,是不能连读的,但是与整个句子联系起来,表达一个基本意思,这样是可以连读的。You 是以元音[ju:]结尾,everything是以元音[e]开头,两个元音是同族人,同族人也会起矛盾的,因此这是用辅音[w]来隔离他们,避免出现已经预知的矛盾。
3 would重读是发音为[wud], 弱读是发音为[wəd],[əd]或者是[d],在这句中既然个主语连写了,当然发为[d], 而且这个爆破音发音很弱很弱。

2 Just come out and say it. [‘dʒʌ,kʌ’maudən’sei(j)i(t)]
1 Just come out
① 这个意群中的just是以爆破音[t]结尾,发音很弱,也可以吞掉不发音。
② come out 中的come是以辅音[m ]结尾, out 是以双元音靠头,辅音和元音一个是雌性,一个是雄性,异性相吸,连读为[mau].
③Out 中的[t]要弱读。
2 say it
①这个意群中的say是以双元音[ei]结尾,it是以元音[i]开头,都是同族人,为了避免争执,用辅音[j]来隔开,连读为['sei(j)it]。这里就有个规律了,当2个元音相遇是,后一个元音是[i],那么连读时就加上辅音[j].
② it 中的[t]跟out中的[t]是一家人,有遗传基因,当然也像out中的[t]发音很弱,也可以吞掉这个音。

【语境翻译】
I'd rather not tell you everything. 我宁可不愿意告诉你全部事实。Jerry已经长大懂事了,虽然生意破产了,但是自己承受,不愿让母亲担忧。他说这句话是为母亲着想。其母亲也想分享自己儿子的痛苦烦恼,就说:Just come out and say it. 这段小小的独白可见母子情深呀。Just a few moths ago, my father was bited by a dog but he told nothing about it to me because he didn't make me worry about him. 真是可怜天下父母心呀。

【关键短语】
在Jerry话中最精彩的短语就是would rather这个短语。It's similar to saying "prefer to". Both of them means"to like one thing better than another or choose this one better than another one ". 译为:宁愿,宁可,更喜欢and so on. “Would rather” is a perfectly important phrase. Let's look at it's uses by some example sentences.

She would rather die than give a speech. 她宁可死也不愿意做演讲。Here is sentence pattern: ssomebody would rather do something than do something, 宁可......也不....... ② Would you rather have a walk or take a bus? 你愿意走路还是愿意坐公交车?Here's a sentence pattern: Would somebody rather do something or do something? 某人愿意做这件事还是那件事?③ —— Do you mind if I smoke? —— Well, I'd rather you not. ——如果我抽烟,你介意吗?—— 嗯,最好不要抽。

Here's a sentence patter: somebody would rather somebody do something. 这个句式在给予两件事情的前提下,为别人选择做做其中一件事情。如果是否定句,则在从句中的rather后面加上not。

那么是为自己选择了,则为对话中的句式somebody would rather do something。For example: —— Do you want to come with me? —— I'd rather not(go with you). 你愿意给我走吗?—— 不想。

【视野拓展】
By the way let's look at another phrase including "rather". It is "rather than (something or somebody)" which means "instead of (something or somebody)". 译为: 而不是(某人或某物),如果说而不是做某事,than后面接动名词,即为:rather than doing something. I , rather than you, should do this work. 应该做这事情的是我而不是你。I'll have a cold drink than coffee. 我要的是冷饮而不是咖啡。Rather than 可以放在句子中间,也就是主语和位于之间,前后用逗号都要使用逗号。再如:I , rather than plying Pipa, like to ply piano. (I like to ply piano rather than plying Pipa .) 我喜欢的是弹钢琴而不是琵琶。

【翻译习题】
Please translate the sentences into English.
1 江姐宁死不屈。

2 我倒希望立即把信件寄出。

3 你为何不向别人求助而是自己干呢?

4 宁缺毋滥。
