用英语读原版英语训练系列4:Return a scarf

英语选择性必修1单词跟读(用英语读原版英语训练系列4)(1)

学英语学到一定程度(高二以上),为什么一定要首先训练自己Put English into English(把英语“翻译”成英语的能力,而不是用中文学那些所谓“实用地道”英语口语(似乎学了就马上排上用场一样)。

因为就算你用中文学了一大堆所谓“实用地道”英语口语,你在平时生活工作中也不一定用得到,甚至是肯定用不到。

而真正能派用场的的人也不会在这里学所谓的“实用英语”的。

但是只要你是一个勤奋学习英语的人,你是经常保持英语阅读的人,不论你平时学的英语有没有“用”,你在阅读英语是你一定会随时随地用得上把英语“翻译”成英语。

1) 下面这段英语看似简单,姑且不论它写的怎样,地道不地道,我就问你一句:你能用Put English into English把它读完吗?

Customer: Hello! I want to return this scarf.

Sales assistant: Have you got your receipt?

Customer: Yes,here you are.

Sales assistant: May I ask why you want to return the scarf?
