王强口语学习法 笔记

1.美语思维的技能 （先本质后描述）
蛋糕就是用面 蛋 水 奶 等等，烘烤出来的能吃的甜食
对于英美人来说，这样的思维方式不是这样的，他们首先说的是东西的本质，
the nature of the thing, the class it belongs to in the world
然后再描述他的特征。
于是：把汉语的思维一份为二，先本质，后描述:
this is kind of food
A cate is kind of food product or food that is baked by using milk sugar water flower etc.

2. 如何解释东西的技能
什么叫掌握一个词，就是知道他一两个同义词，或者近义词，甚至反义词。
学句子，拆 合 增加 去掉，然后把复杂变简单，把简单变复杂这样说来说去。

3. 
阻挡交流的不是发音，而是思维。
★用英文骨子里描述东西
“描”“述”： describe + narrate = illustrate, meaning
very general thing...
汉语爱泛泛而谈，结论性的概括。而英文是需要进入细节的，所以英文有这样的说法： what's your point?
汉语中，说我的大意是这样的。
这是两种语言思维的差异。
instead of saying she is very beautiful, 给她一个细节，比如eyes明亮，hair blonde，要比泛泛而谈的beautiful强好
多倍。
I'm so tired. 加个例子，怎么tired。饭来了都叫不醒，形容tired的程度。

要具体化，泛泛而谈，对方看不到你的观点。I can't see your point.

4.

例子：今天早晨我们外出散步了，一个小孩调到河里，另一个小孩叫John的救了他。
直接翻译，老外就会confused.
地道翻译：Your son saved another boy, when he fall into a river, while we went out for a walk this morning.
专注于一件事，把一件事说清楚了。

5.

 对宠物狗的描述：
We have a dog. Her name is Beauty. She is a bulldog. She has a beauty face. She likes to catch rats.
问题是出现的事件过多。
Version 2:
One night when I was about to go to bed, my dog Bud got into the kitchen. He saw a box of cornstartch on the shelf. He jumped up and knocked it all over himself. In the morning when I saw Bud, he was as white as a ghost.
只围绕一件事描述。
Saturday my brother Tom said he would teach me to skate. So he take hold of a stick. Then he would pull me along. Once he let go of me, he thought it was fun to see me fall, but I didn't see the joke.

Yesterday noon I saw a girl who had trouble with her car. She stopped at a street crossing. When the traffic cop signaled to go, she couldn't start. There was a long line of cars behind her. After a while she finally started he car. I think she was frightened to death.

6.骨架+肉（细节）
I saw a big dog. The big dog seems to be breave. A small cat ran out at the big dog. Big dog ran away. The big dog was not breave at all.
↓
I saw a funny thing this morning. A big ugly black dog came into our yard. He barked for a while and then walked around as if he was not afraid of anything. Just then a small white cat ran out at him. The fluffy fur on her back stood up straight. The big dog gave one quick look at her then he turned and ran as fast as he could. I thought he was not as brave as he appared to be.
