二、核心方法:给复杂主体搭「桥」四步
遇到不好描述的主体(平台 / 工具 / 新事物),先给它搭一座「桥」,再用结构把它讲实。四步:
- 主体给一个「桥」 —— 说它是什么:
Muse Code is a platform… - 装饰这座桥 —— 用
in which(在这之上)接住: - 后面紧接的完整句子 —— 讲里面有什么:
…in which there is a whole bunch of agents - 后置定语 / 过去分词收尾 —— 它们怎么分工:
…agents, divided into groups
完整示范(课堂原句)
Muse Code is a platform, in which there is a whole bunch of agents, divided into groups. For example, they operate with a simple agent plus a set of async background agents to boost efficiency by enhancing the main agent's capability.
拆解
- 第 1 句:主体(platform)+
in which+ 完整句子 +过去分词收尾—— 平台「是什么」讲清了 - 第 2 句:
for example补细节 —— async background agents(异步后台处理)提升效率 - 用途:口语 P2 描述 app / 工具 / 网站、P3 聊科技、写作 describe a product,全都能用
三、时事素材卡:2026-08-11 期(可直接上课用)
本期聚焦两条当日国际动态:①科技 —— Meta 发布最新开源权重模型 Muse Spark 1.2 及终端编程代理 Muse Code,可自主规划、编写并验证代码,是讨论「AI 与未来工作」的理想素材;②国际事务 —— 特朗普宣布 8 月 15 日在阿拉斯加与普京举行试探性会晤,适合「personal diplomacy / 国际关系与沟通」类话题。
Part 1 日常问答(示范 50-60 词)
Q: Do you use technology or AI tools in your daily life?
To be honest, I use AI tools pretty much on a daily basis. I have a translation app at my fingertips whenever I do homework, which saves me so much time — I'd say it's a game-changer for keeping up with the latest tech. It took me a while to get the hang of it at first, but now it's just part of my routine.
Part 2 话题卡(示范 80 词)
Describe a new technology or AI tool that you recently learned about.
I'd like to talk about Muse Code, a brand-new AI coding tool that Meta just released. I came across it in the news yesterday. What impressed me most is that it can plan changes, write code and even check its own work — it's really at the forefront of artificial intelligence. Honestly, though, tools like this push the boundaries of software engineering, so I think we need to strike a balance between efficiency and human creativity. All in all, it will open up new possibilities for how we work.
Part 3 深入讨论(句型 + 示范)
- Q1: Do you think AI will replace human jobs? →
I'm inclined to think that…/It really depends on…
示范:I'm inclined to think that AI will take over many routine tasks, but it won't wipe out entire jobs. It really depends on the nature of the work — repetitive, rule-based tasks are the most vulnerable, while jobs that require empathy will probably survive. There's no denying that this transition will be uncomfortable for some workers, but having said that, history shows new technology creates more opportunities than it destroys. - Q2: Does new technology add stress to our lives? →
There's no denying that…/Having said that,… - Q3: Does personal diplomacy still matter?(例:特朗普-普京 8 月 15 日阿拉斯加会晤)→
From my perspective,…/The way I see it,…

三B、Muse 素材深挖:Muse Code & Muse Spark 1.2 详情(2026 · Meta)
Muse Spark 1.2 是 Meta 对 1.1 的编码向更新,在代码生成、复杂调试、代码库理解和端到端开发工作流上显著升级;训练算力大幅加码,同时保持通用智能体等其他领域优势。
Muse Code 的亮点:主 agent + 一组异步后台 agents 分开工作 —— 这些专门的后台 agents 在会话全程保持活跃(而不是按任务临时生成),避免重复信息收集;它们负责执行下一步并自行决定何时汇报给主 agent,从而降低延迟、减少复杂多步任务的操控负担。
- 聊天用法:把「刚看到的科技新闻」翻译成自己的观点句,就是最好的口语输出
四、科技词汇:N + 分词缩写
| 缩写 | 关系 | 例子 |
|---|---|---|
N + 现在分词 |
主动,名词当宾语 | a time-saving method = the method saves time |
N + 过去分词 |
被动,名词当受事 | hand-made gift / gas-powered vehicle = made / powered by hand / gas |
AI 话题高频词:
artificial intelligence / AI——automation(自动化)、double-edged sword(双刃剑)unemployment/job displacement(岗位被替代)、boost productivity(提升生产力)complex tasks that require…(需要…的复杂任务)、repetitive work(重复性劳动)、human effort / hours(人力和工时)
五、AI 话题怎么聊:Will AI change the way we work?
- 会 / 担忧面:AI 能处理复杂任务(
complex tasks that require…),很多重复性工作(repetitive work)被自动化,带来job displacement / unemployment—— AI 是把double-edged sword - 也有机会面:把人从重复劳动里解放出来,去做更需要判断的事;
critical thinking and creativity skill matter more—— 批判性思维和创造力反而更重要了 - 表达重点:先给观点,再给「我为什么这么想」,再举一个具体的例子 —— 聊 30 秒不卡壳
六、延伸写作:Discuss Both Views 双边讨论(AI 题)
同一个素材直接进作文。题目(真题):Some people believe that developments in the field of artificial intelligence will have a positive impact on our lives in the near future. Others, by contrast, are worried that we are not prepared for a world in which computers are more intelligent than humans. Discuss both of these views and give your own opinion.
| 段 | 内容 | 可用句 |
|---|---|---|
| on the one hand(支持) | AI 工具带来巨大好处 | tools such as Muse Code (a terminal coding agent developed by Meta) can boost productivity, allowing people to focus on creative and strategic work;长期看 could raise living standards and accelerate progress in education, medicine and innovation |
| on the other hand(担忧) | 岗位被替代、人类未准备好 | job displacement; we are not prepared for a world in which computers are more intelligent than humans |
| conclusion(你的观点) | AI 是工具,关键是人的能力 | critical thinking and creativity skill matter more —— 把 AI 当助手,别当对手 |
七、一句话记住
搭桥四步:主体给「桥」→
in which装饰 → 完整句子补内容 → 分词收尾。时事当弹药,AI 随便聊。
