【今日主题】

A : What would you say if someone offered you a job on the stock market?
B : I'd probably turn it down because it would be stressful.

【重点单词和词组】

What do you say is the key words and phrases? I think the following should be kept by heart. They are:
1 offer somebody something
2 on the stock market
3 turn down
4 stressful.
Among them I think the "stressful" is the most important word and "turn down" is the primary important phrase.

"Stressful " is the adjective form of the verb "stress" and means "causing a lot of anxiety and worry". 意思是：带来许多忧虑的，带来许多压力的。好，现在，我们把对话中的句子改一下：how to translate:对于我来说，证劵市场的工作对于我来说压力很大。The job on the stock market is stressful for me. 再如：It was a stressful time for all of us. (对于我们所有人来说，那是个艰难时期。)

“Stressed”is also the adjective form of the verb"stress". Could you just tell me what the differences are between them? Let's look at it's English explanation: too anxious and tired to be able to relax.意思是：心力交瘁的; 焦虑不安的。For example: When things go wrong, I'm stressed out. (当问题出现时，我总是万分紧张。) I'm stressed out driving in the city.(在城市离开车，我很紧张。)

Now we work it out. In one word. 当主语是人时，就用stressed, 当主语是物时，就用stressful.

"Turn down" means "to reject or refuse to consider an offer, a proposal, etc. Or the person who makes it". 拒绝，回绝（提议，建议或者是提议人）。He asked her to marry him but she turned him down. (他请求她嫁给他，可是遭到了回绝。) Why did she turn down your invitation? (她为何要拒绝你的邀请？)

【Grammar】

In this dialogue the main grammar is "虚拟语气"。

1 What would you say if someone offered you a job on the stock market?
if someone offered you a job on the stock market 是整个句子的宾语从句。既然有从句，必定有主句，主句是：what would you say 有了从句和主句，主句是what would you say，就要注意主句和从句的时态呼应。根据语境，我们可以知道这个是对现在情况的一种设想，因此要用虚拟语气，主句和宾语从句都用一般过去式。

2 I'd probably turn it down because it would be stressful.
这是个含有原因状语从句的复合句。我们刚才说到含有宾语从句的复合句的虚拟语气的用法，现在我们来看看含有原因状语从句的复合句虚拟语气的用法。根据语境，我们可以知道这个是对现在情况的一种设想，因此要用虚拟语气，同宾语从句一样，主句和从句都用一般过去式。
