你認(rèn)為自己是什么樣的人？人們是如何獲得個性的
 
來聽今天的講解:
 
Beginner
 
A: do you like Barry?
 
你喜歡巴里嗎？
 
B: no, not very much. He’s too ambitious and dishonest.
 
不，不多。他太野心勃勃，不誠實。
 
A: I agree. I like his brother, Paul. They are not alike.
 
我同意。我喜歡他的兄弟保羅。他們不一樣。
 
B: yes. They are completely different. Paul is very sociable and much more honest than his brother.
 
是的。他們完全不同。保羅非常善于交際，而且比他的兄弟誠實得多。
 
A: what kind of person do you consider yourself to be?
 
你認(rèn)為自己是什么樣的人？
 
B: I think I’m polite, careful, relaxed and shy.
 
我認(rèn)為我有禮貌，細(xì)心，放松和害羞。
 
A: oh, I don’t think you’re shy! You are always chatting with new people when we go to a party.
 
哦，我不認(rèn)為你害羞！我們?nèi)⒓泳蹠r，你總是和新朋友聊天。
 
B: well, yes, but those people always start talking to me. I never talk to them first. Perhaps I’m not as shy as I think. Anyway, you’re certainly not shy!
 
嗯，是的，但那些人總是開始和我說話。我從來沒有先和他們說話。也許我沒有想象中那么害羞。不管怎樣，你肯定不害羞！
 
A: You’re right. I love going out and making new friends.
 
你說得對。我喜歡出去交新朋友。
 
B: so, you’ll be at my birthday party on Friday?
 
那么，你周五會參加我的生日聚會嗎？
 
A: Of course!
 
當(dāng)然！
 
Intermediate
 
A: How do you think people get their personalities?
 
你認(rèn)為人們是如何獲得個性的？
 
B: I think it’s mainly from the environment a person lives it.
 
我認(rèn)為這主要來自于一個人生活的環(huán)境。
 
A: Don’t you think people get their personalities from their parents?
 
你不認(rèn)為人們的個性是從父母那里得到的嗎？
 
B: no, but parents control a lot of the environment that kids grow up in, so they certainly influence their kid’s personalities a lot.
 
不，但父母控制著孩子成長的許多環(huán)境，所以他們肯定會對孩子的性格產(chǎn)生很大影響。
 
A: So why do you think many kids have personalities that are so different to their parents.
 
那么，為什么你認(rèn)為許多孩子的性格與他們的父母如此不同呢。
 
B: maybe when they become teenagers, they want to be completely different to their parents.
 
也許當(dāng)他們十幾歲的時候，他們想和父母完全不同。
 
A: You might be right. I guess most parents want their kids to be like them, but kids today grow up in a different environment. You know, they know much more about the world from the internet, newspapers, and tv.
 
你可能是對的。我想大多數(shù)父母都希望他們的孩子像他們一樣，但今天的孩子在不同的環(huán)境中長大。你知道，他們從互聯(lián)網(wǎng)、報紙和電視上了解了更多的世界。
 
B: do you think that teenagers get a lot of their bad behaviour from tv and movies?
 
你認(rèn)為青少年的很多不良行為是從電視和電影中得到的嗎？
 
A: Maybe some of it. I think a lot of people blame TV and movies when the real problem is that the parents aren’t bringing their child up correctly.
 
也許是其中的一部分。我認(rèn)為很多人責(zé)怪電視和電影，而真正的問題是父母沒有正確地?fù)狃B(yǎng)孩子。
 
B: Parents have a difficult job. They have to bring up their children and usually have to work too.
 
父母的工作很困難。他們必須撫養(yǎng)孩子，而且通常也必須工作。
 
A: Yes, that’s fine. Your son is doing well at school, isn’t he?
 
是的，那很好。你兒子在學(xué)校表現(xiàn)很好，不是嗎？
 
B: yes, he is. He’s very hardworking when he’s at school. Then he comes home from school and does homework before dinner. After dinner, he goes out with his friends.
 
是的，他是。他在學(xué)校的時候非常勤奮。然后他放學(xué)回家，晚飯前做作業(yè)。晚飯后，他和朋友出去玩。
 
A: So, he’s not a bookworm? It’s good that he has an outgoing personality. Some kids are very quiet and introverted. You wonder they’ll survive in the real world without their parents to support them.
 
所以，他不是個書蟲？他性格外向，這很好。有些孩子非常安靜和內(nèi)向。你想知道如果沒有父母的支持，他們會在現(xiàn)實世界中生存下來。
