【主题】

From today we'll be starting learning some short sentences from hit American films which are ways of telling people you'll listen to them. This morning I would like to share one which means" I want to know something.". It's said before asking for information. Let's get it from a simple situational dialogue.

A : So, tell me. What kind of work do you do?

B : I work as a teacher in a high school.

【答疑解惑】

It is "So, tell me.". Here so is similar to saying in Chinese:来，来吧，那么，是啊，and so on. It's a conjunction which is used to introduce a comment or a question. So在此是个连词用于引出一个问题或者评论。For example: So, let's see. What do we need to take? 来吧，大家想想，我们需要带些什么?So, what have you been doing today? 那么你今天都干了些什么?“So, tell me.”is like saying in Chinese:来吧，说说看;那么，说话看;是啊，说说看，something like those above. We also can say it as :"So, tell me something." If we are eager to know some information, we could say it as "Do tell ." or "Do tell me something.". 如果我们急切地想知道那样东西，我们可以说：“Do tell.”。意思是：快给我说说，快讲呀。Do 在这里是助动词，起到加强语气的作用。For example: Report has it that it's very interesting, do tell.据说那非常有趣，快说说看。

【即学即用】

Please translate the following sentences into English. 1 来吧，说说看，你支持那方?

2 那么，说说看，我哪里做错了?

1 So,you've got to tell me something. You've got to tell me which side you are on. Here is phrase"be on one's side"支持某方。“Have got to ”means must. 2 So, do tell me. Where did I go wrong. Here's a phrase"go wrong"做错事情，we also can say it as "do wrong".

【创作情景对话】

Well , let's have a challenge to make a simple dialogue according to my situation given below. It is :Mary买了件衣服要他的丈夫John评论这衣服如何。Think it over and a suggestive dialogue will be given later.

Mary: Darling, so, tell me. Do you like the dress I'm wearing?

John: Yes. It looks very sexy on you. 亲爱的，说说看，喜欢我穿的衣服吗?

喜欢。这衣服你穿起来看上去很性感。

Here is phrase"on somebody", 是指(衣服等)穿在某人身上。

【吃透美语】

【Real Speech】[w?,kaind?'w?:dju:;ju:'dju:]

【Tranlation】你是干什么工作的?

2 I work as a teacher in a high school.

【Real Speech】[ai,w?:g?z??ti?t??rin?'hais'ku:l]

【Key Words】As is preposition which is used to describe that fact that somebody or something has a particular job or function. For example: I respected him as a doctor. 我尊敬他为医生。The new came as a shock.消息传来，令人震惊。

【Grammar】as a teacher 介词短语作方式状语，in a high school介词短语作地点状语。注意方式状语放于地点状语前面。

【温故知新】
