「晨读音频」


Hello everyone! Welcome to my channel. I’m Reevs. Good morning!

大家好,欢迎来到懒人英语晨读栏目,我是Reevs,早上好呀!

And today we're going back to school. We're going to talk about math. Now, I know that many of you, of course, know math.

今天我们要回学校了。我们要来聊聊数学。我知道很多人肯定会数学。

But do you know the operations in English? Many people find it hard to find the right words to talk about math in English. So that's what we're gonna be looking at today.

但是你知道如何用英语表述吗?许多人发现很难找到合适的词来用英语谈论数学。这就是我们今天要讲的内容。

And we’ll also look at some names that you can call people who are really, really smart.

我们还会学习如何称呼一些非常非常聪明的人。

So let's listen to our dialogue first.

让我们先来听一下对话。

「对话文本」

「重要发音技巧」

Welcome back. Here are some tips for you to practice and perfect your pronunciation.

欢迎回来。这里有一些可以让你去练习和完善发音的技巧,我们来一起看一下。

1. 辅元连读+Flap T:What about

对话中:

And what about fifty six minus sixty?

辅元连读:

两个单词相邻时,前一个单词词尾是辅音,后一个单词开头是元音时,可以作辅元连读。

连读分析:

What /wʌt/ about /əˈbaʊt/(/t/是辅音,/ə/是元音),连读后为/wʌtəˈbaʊt/

Flap T : 

连读基础之上,/t/在两个元音之间且非重读, /t/可以读为一个很轻的/d/

Flap T分析:

/t/在元音/ʌ/和/ə/之间,且非重读,what about可以读为/wʌdəˈbaʊt/

复述:

And what about fifty six minus sixty?

2. 词内连读+Flap T: know-it-all

对话中:

know-it-all /ˈnəʊ ɪt ɔːl/

词内连读:

单词内音标相邻时,出现 “辅音+元音=辅元连读”。

连读分析:

it-all/ɪt ɔːl/ (/t/是辅音,/ɔː/是元音),可以读为/ˈnəʊ ɪt ɔːl/

Flap T : 

连读基础之上,/t/在两个元音之间且非重读, /t/可以读为一个很轻的/d/

Flap T分析:

/t/在元音/ɪ/和/ɔː/之间,且非重读,所以可以读为/ˈnəʊ ɪd ɔːl/

复述:

know-it-all

「核心单词掌握」

All right, so let's take a look at those math words that the teacher used to ask Crystal about certain operations.

好了,让我们来看看那些老师用来问Crystal算法表述的数学单词。

OK, so let's look at the first one “plus”.

好的,我们先来看第一个“plus”。

1. plus /plʌs/ v. 加

Two plus three is five.

二加三等于五。

So that's how you would add numbers. Now, what about taking away numbers?

这就是加法的表述。那么减法怎么说呢?

And the next word we have is minus.

下一个要来看的单词是 “minus”。

2. minus /ˈmaɪnəs/ v. 减,减去

Seven minus two is five.

七减去二是五。

Moving to our third word “negative”.

继续来看第三个单词“negative”。

3.negative /ˈneɡətɪv/ adj. 负数的,小于零的

In the dialogue, the teacher said “fifty six minus sixty”.

在对话中,老师说“56减去60”。

Fifty six minus sixty equals negative four.

56减去60等于-4。

OK, so that's negative.

做减法出来就是负值。

Okay, so now for our next word “times”.

好,现在我们看下一个单词“times”。

4. times /taɪmz/ prep. 乘以

Four times two is eight.

四乘以二等于八。

还有一个单词也经常用来做乘法,就是multiply, “乘以”的表达就是“multiplied by” 。

5 multiplied by 2 is 10. 

五乘以二等于十。

Now, the opposite of times “divide”.

现在,乘以的相反运算是“divide”。

5. divide /dɪˈvaɪd/ v. 除

    divided by 除以

10 divided by 2 is 5.

10除以2等于5。

刚才已经讲完了有关“加减乘除”的单词表达, 那我们会发现在表示等于的时候,都有用到一个单词是“is”,那在表示等于的时候,还有一个单词我们在英语中会经常出现,那就是 “equal”, 比如说:

15 divided by 3 equals 5. 

15除以3等于5。

And our last word for today “square root”.

我们今天最后一个单词“square root”。

6. square /skwer/ root /ruːt/ 平方根

So let me give you some examples to show what is the square root.

来举一些例子来说明什么是平方根。

OK, so the square root of 9 is 3.

好的,所以9的平方根是3。

And what about the square root of four?

4的平方根呢?

It’s two.

它就是二。


「实用口语表达」

Okay, so we looked at the words of mathematical /ˌmæθəˈmætɪkl/ operations. Now there was another little kid in there who was very, I think, envious or jealous-Tommy.

好了,我们看过了这些数学运算相关的单词。现在有另一个小孩在那里,我认为他很嫉妒——Tommy。

So he called Crystal a couple of different names. Well, let's look at those now. 

所以他给Crystal取了几个不同的名字。好吧,让我们现在来看看这些单词。

OK. So the first one is “a teacher’s pet”.

第一个是“a teacher’s pet”。

1. a teacher’s pet 老师的宠儿

Shes the teachers pet.

她是老师的宠儿。

So what exactly is a teacher’s pet? 

老师的宠儿是什么意思呢?

It is the favorite student the teacher has in that class. So its always a student thats helping the teacher. 

就是班里老师最喜欢的学生。总是帮助老师的学生。

And it has a negative meaning in English. I wouldnt say that its a good thing to be the teacher’s pet.

它在英语中有否定的意思。我不认为成为老师的宠儿是件好事。

But the teacher thinks it's good. But all of the friends and the classmates, they think it's bad.

但老师认为这很好。但是所有的朋友和同学都认为这很糟糕。

And similar to a teachers pet is “a suck-up”. 

和它意思接近的是“a suck-up”。

2. a suck-up 马屁精

What is a suck-up? A suck-up is a person who tries really, really hard to make the teacher like him.

那马屁精是什么意思呢?马屁精是一个非常非常努力让老师喜欢他的人。

Now, we can also use it outside of the classroom. There is always one person who is the suck-up at work.

现在我们也可以在课堂之外使用它。总有那么一个人在工作中会拍老板马屁。

Now, again, this has a negative meaning in English.

同样,这个词在英语中有贬义色彩。

We have a colleague at work who's the biggest suck-up. He's always being nice to our boss.

我们公司有个最会拍马屁的同事。他对我们老板总是很好。

And our last one, this is a way to describe someone, “know-it-all”.

我们来看最后一个,用来描述某人,“know-it-all”。

3. know-it-all 万事通

Okay, so what is a know-it-all? Somebody who tries to show everyone that they are smart and they know everything.

那什么是万事通?一个试图向所有人展示自己很聪明,自己知道一切的人。

But they really, really try and show everyone that they know everything. These people can be sometimes a little bit irritating.

但他们真的非常非常努力地向所有人展示他们无所不知。这些人有时候会有点烦。

Now, it’s time for us to review what we've learned today.

现在我们来回顾一下今天所学习的内容,一起思考起来。
