今天的总结:
1.和外教交流时,头脑想中文嘴上说英文,常变成变相翻译,表达的句式长和复杂外还很难让外教理解,有时还会卡在一些用词上,更糟的是查了词典后外教还是不懂我说什么。但是我发现每次外教表示不理解时或者我想问具体用什么词时,我就再急着解释一遍我想表达的意思时,问外教用地道的英语要怎么说,外教总说刚刚那么说就很地道好理解。所以当你想把想说的内容说出来前,要假定他不懂,然后用解释的心态说英语,就能避免中式思维的语法句子。而且句子要simple and short,一句复杂信息多的话用几句话说。因为通常汉语一句话信息量很大,英语要用几句话才能说明白。当然外教补充说要看具体情况,有时候复杂的句式能用更少的词把意思说明白。
2.关于俚语:很多外教并不懂你学的俚语,因为俚语有地界,不同地方的人俚语不同。考试时尽量不用俚语。想学俚语可以下载saywhat的手机应用,比较贴近美国年轻一代。
