第 8 课 · 口语 · P3 说话方法

① 本课主题域:人文(成功 / 学习 / 挫折 / 孤独)

P3 里问"人"的题(人为什么成功、为什么坚持、为什么孤独),套路是:先把问题"翻译"成一句可比较的判断,再给对比。

② 核心金句

What makes a role model inspiring isn't perfection; it's showing the struggle — accepting the struggle, failure and fear.

中文:让一个榜样真正鼓舞人的不是完美,而是他把挣扎展示了出来。结构:what 从句做主语 + isn't A;it's B(A、B 都是名词或动名词)。

变体:To define a man's life isn't about perfection; it's about accepting…

③ 对比结构:为什么有人放弃、有人坚持

问句:Why do some people give up while others keep going?
收束:It comes down to how they read failure.(归根到底,是他们怎么"读"失败。)

放弃的人坚持的人
they think that failure defines themselves(觉得失败定义了自己)they think that failure can't define themselves(失败定义不了自己)
failure is something horrible(失败很可怕)it's a great opportunity to improve themselves(是提升自己的绝佳机会)
一遇到困难,想逃回 comfort zone(舒适区)把克服失败当成"要完成的任务":to overcome failure is like missions that are to be accomplished

衔接词(板书):because / and / that's why / those who…

④ 语法点:宾语从句 that(把句子变成名词)

板书拆句:They think that failure defines themselves.
they 是主语,think 是谓语动词,think 后面是宾语;而宾语必须是名词——所以要加 that,把这一整个句子变成一个名词(宾语从句)。

对照:主语从句 What she said was that everyone can learn English really well.

⑤ 听力 / 语调信号:that 后面接什么?

看到的结构判断例子
动词 + that大概率是宾语从句(后面啥都不缺)they think that failure defines themselves
名词 + that大概率是定语从句(后面缺主语或宾语)the only sector in which emissions…(见第 6 课)
that 读升调后面接从句——耳朵"挂"上去…they think that / failure defines themselves

⑥ 收束与比喻(让答案有回响)

  • and that is what keeps those going / those who are successful going, because they want to overcome failure.
  • and that is the motivation.(干净利落收尾)
  • 比喻:to overcome failure is like missions that are to be accomplished.
  • 句型:adj + N + to do —— a great opportunity to improve themselves。

⑦ 中文 → 英文对照练习

为啥有人放弃有人坚持?可能因为爱放弃的人觉得失败很可怕,所以一碰到难题,就想逃回自己的舒适区。
Because those who give up think that failure is something horrible. That's why, when they face difficulties, they want to escape / run back to their comfort zone.

而坚持的人觉得失败可以提升自己,他们觉得这是一个绝佳的机会,会去进步。
And those who keep going think that failure can't define themselves; they think that it's a great opportunity to improve themselves.

练法:先照着中文说一遍,再看只留英文复述;特别把 that 从句的重音和升调说出来。
