用英语学酒店英语口语:Tips for Checking out 酒店退房(1)

一问:英语阅读训练的目的是什么?你怎么回答这个问题?

二问:你阅读英语时,你的“理解语言”是什么?你是回答“中文”,还是“英语”?

所以我们做英语阅读训练时要解决的一个问题就是:

我们为什么一定要用中文来作为我们阅读的“理解语言”,而不是,也不能慢慢地训练自己把英语作为我们英语阅读的“理解语言”呢?

这就是对“”英语阅读训练的目的是什么?”这个问题的回答。明确了这点,我们就知道,我们的英语阅读训练,就是训练我们把英语作为理解语言的能力:直接用英语理解英语!

下面的这篇“酒店英语”文章跟很简单,但是用做“把英语作为阅读的理解语言,直接用英语理解英语能力”训练就没那么简单了。

1) URead 体验英语:

Tips for Checking Out in a Hotel

As you leave the hotel, double-check the safe, drawers, bedside tables and any other places where you may have left your belongings. If you later find you have left something behind in the hotel, call the front desk right away to ask the staff to keep it for you.

After paying the bill, don’t forget to ask the receptionist for your receipt.

If possible, try to avoid checking out during rush-hour times so that you can easily get a taxi to the airport or train station, and avoid a traffic jam.

2) UTalk 自己跟自己说英语,把英语作为阅读理解的语言:

1. 读到Tips for Checking Out in a Hotel时,使用英语:

Well I know tip has many meanings.

One meaning is that tip is money.

首先不是money吗?What money呢?

we pay people

(什么people?)

such as waiters, taxi drivers, tour guides.

(为什么要pay them?)

for their good service. So this is tip

Well I know tip has many meanings.One meaning is that tip is money we pay people,such as waiters, taxi drivers, tour guides for their good service. So this is tip

我们用中文作为tip的理解语言,能用上这些漂亮英语吗?

Another meaning is tip is advice,tip is suggestion,tip is ideas about how to do something.

how to do something不就是“攻略,贴士,点子”吗?可是如果用中文作为理解语言,就用不上how to do something这样的英语了。

2. 读到Checking Out in a Hotel时,使用英语:

What is check out in a hotel?

这里就要“考查你的英语阅读能力”了,文章中有用英语作为理解语言的“答案”

文章中you leave the hotel自己After paying the bill就是check out:

Well when we say we check out in a hotel, we mean we pay our bill and leave the hotel.

为什么不用英语作为理解语言理解check out,而用中文“退房”作为理解语言呢?

Pay the bill? To pay the bill means we pay the MONEY.
