神探夏洛克第四级开拍了,卷福的语速你们准备好了吗?

 

唠嗑的时候喜欢教你们几个词,其中也包括我觉得可以帮助大家提高听力的一点个人建议!...





除了 The Tudors (左边是英文标题的正确typing形式,因为英文没有说明号) 我就只认真的追着《神探夏洛克》。

The Tudors 讲的是都铎王朝的故事,围绕亨利八世和他的六个老婆、三个娃展开的,这个时期的英国号称堪比中国的唐朝时期(Tang Dynasty),但主要指的是我爱豆(idol)伊丽莎白一世女王统治时期的英国(Elizabethan Age)。关于她的一个很出名的key word,有兴趣的童鞋可以多了解一下:Virgin Queen。

追剧的童鞋经常会看到s1e1这样的简单代号:

'S' is short for season, and 'e' episode.

season就是季

episode就是集

大剧开播之前都会流出一些预告片:trailer

很多童鞋看剧离不开字幕:captions/subtitles

下面是一篇报道卷福的文章,第四季要出新反派啦!(童鞋们当短篇新闻阅读即可,有看不明白的可以给我的公众号留言,看到都会及时回复)

Toby Jones is to play a villain in the fourth series of BBC One's Sherlock.

Jones will join Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman in the second episode of the new three-part series. Filming began on Monday.

Jones said: "I'm excited and intrigued by the character I shall be playing in Sherlock..."

The show's co-creator Steven Moffat said: "Delighted to have Toby Jones on board, bringing to life one of Doyle's finest villains."

Co-creator Mark Gatiss added: “We're thrilled to welcome one of our finest actors to the Sherlock family. I know Toby will embrace the part with true relish!"

It was announced last month that series four will begin with Holmes (Cumberbatch) back on British soil, as Doctor Watson (Freeman) and his wife, Mary (Amanda Abbington), prepare for parenthood.

那么卷福回来了,他的语速你们准备好了吗?




我觉得英文学习我们很多学生的瓶颈在于“被动”,比如拿听力来举例,很多人都是一个个的单词跟着听,而我听力在miracally进步之后,我发现我不在是等着单词蹦出来,一个没听到就大脑空白,无数次之后看到听力文本原文的时候,都大腿一拍,竟然没有一个单词是我不认识的!

那问题出在哪儿呢?我不知道有没有人和我一样去思考过这个问题。

其实答案很简单,我在听到be going的时候我就大概知道下面的内容;在听到either之后我知道后面还会有个or,我听到了v-ed form还有连词and, 我就知道将会出现第二个v-ed form,甚至第三第四个,我不再是被动的听会有什么内容,而是主动去捕获我觉得重要的信息,以及串联整个句子的主干(传说中的主谓宾),所以渐渐的即使有不认识的单词(我有听广播的习惯,在此向大家推荐一个挺好的听英文广播的软件:ENGLISH RADIO)我也都不再对听到的内容一无所知。

但是怎么做到主动捕获呢?答案比较让人心塞——语法知识你要够扎实,我不太喜欢讲“语法”这2个字,我都管它叫做语言结构,学习它就好比学习数学公式,什么情况下你想说什么话要套用什么公式,就是这个意思。

希望以上这两段人生20年学习英文的总结可以帮助enlight到一部分人,那么我这篇顶着沉重的眼皮完成的公众号就有了它存在的意义。

Thank you for your time then.
