Give me five!

第一次和当地的黑人接触是在海滩上,跟一个卖椰子的小伙闲聊.小伙只大我一岁,很热情,也很健谈,话里话外都透露出热情与洋溢,有嘻有哈的,以至于平时不怎么健谈的我也凑上去跟他闲扯.聊到投机,小伙很自然的冒出一句"Yeah my friend,give me five",当时有点尴尬,我想这聊着聊着怎么还向我要money,真是不离商贩本性.于是回"no i don't have money",小伙连忙"no no give me five"顺便伸出拳头,我这才看出端倪赶紧伸手和他碰拳.

没想到是这么个意思,回来上网确认果然如此.不过"give me five"意思是伸出手掌互碰表示问候或有好,碰拳也许也行吧.(奥巴马不也碰拳嘛)

反正我自那次后和黑人聊的开心时直接也要求对方give me five,顺便碰个拳,他们也都很乐意,内心可能认为这小伙还懂点规矩.哥们我入乡随俗还不行嘛.

我对"疯狂英语"的理解

李阳-克里兹(Stone Cliz),这是早期李阳用在教材上用到的名字,现在提起只能算作历史了."Stone Cliz"直译过来为"世通-克里兹"或"石头-克里兹",意思是就"在这里坚若磐石般的攻克".由此可见早期创业的人都带有那么一点点的理想主义,遗憾的是李阳的理想主义没坚持几年就完全被商业同化了.相反老罗和他的朋友们还在坚守理想主义这一阵地.

疯狂英语,怎么就算个疯狂:大声吼?大声念?手舞足蹈?其实不然.从我学习疯狂英语的过程来看,疯狂英语强调的并不是这些表面的东西.他注重学习者学习英语的主动性,通过具有极具鼓动性的口号激发学习者强烈的学习欲望.正是这种膨胀式的欲望促使学习者完全按照疯狂英语的方法步骤来实践学习.当然,他的学习方法也不无道理:通过大量输入,反复模仿矫正,再合理输出,促使学习者逐步提高.当然,这过程中少不了鼓动激励式的说教,因为学习者很可能因繁复的练习而厌倦,这也是为什么在李阳的教材中能看到大量"句子兴奋剂"的原因.至于他那些个手势也都是用来帮助矫正发音的,等于是用手势来模拟口型的,没什么神奇的.

这种方法个人感觉比较适合中学生.中学生由于年龄较小,接触及理解事物都比较受限,所以遇到此类鼓动激发且新颖的学习方法后自然兴趣盎然.但大学生眼界相对打开,一般就对其提不起多大兴趣了.当然这也是根据自身对疯狂英语的学习总结出来的.

图片上的书籍我都学过,但学的最透的只有两本,那就是李阳最早的一套书,叫李阳克里兹发音突破掌上宝(上下册).这套书个人感觉是李阳所以书中最棒的一套,因为刚创业处于理想状态的他编这套书是下了硬功夫的,里面涵盖范围甚广.至今我还收藏着这两本书.至于后面的书,尤其是近年来出的书,不客气的讲那就是拼凑出来的垃圾.

最后还想说的就是,"李阳疯狂英语"这个名就把学习英语学习定格在李阳的那一套理论中,有朝一日李阳讲不动了,他的疯狂英语还能像现在这样存在吗,这真是一个人的奋斗.

喝酒

“平时真不喝酒，没酒量，即便喝也是那么一点点。”去，没人相信，结果一有机会凑到一块喝酒，最先感到天玄地转的恐怕就是我这个倒霉蛋了。但还要故作镇定表情，眼睛瞪得跟茶叶蛋一样大，好像自己有那么半斤几两的，其实整个人早已经木雕了，硬邦邦的坐在桌前，傻乎乎的听别人说笑。何必呢，能不能自主一点，是个什么情况就直接摊牌，不能喝就不装逼，搞得来回都昏呼呼，失败！绝对的失败！

其实个人感觉点到为止就算了，重要的还是看工作成效，干嘛在饭桌上把人逼的这么绝，非要把你灌的晕头转向的，即便是和领导喝酒。有时候也有个人情绪失控原因，自己非要逞个人英雄主义，显示一下个人交际能力，有屁用。这种马屁伎俩早已过时。

在此自我批评，酒桌上千万要保持冷静，莫要随大流。适合别人的不一定适合自己，适合自己的别人也不一定认同，无所谓。不理解的就继续郁闷吧，一切跟着自己的意愿走，莫要强求!

Wild World

王若琳的新翻唱辑里收录一首老歌Wild World,由英国一老牌创作型歌手Cat Stevens作曲填词,旋律歌词都超棒,之后又被美国一Rock Band Mr.Big 改编翻唱,摇滚气息很浓但又不失歌曲所要表达的内涵,现在Joanna这位爵士才女又将其翻唱,感觉还是一口纯粹的Pop味,没怎么加入Jazz,除了她那慵懒的声音.个人还是比较钟爱Mr.Big的摇滚唱调.听100遍都不烦.可以试试.

Now that I've lost everything to you,

you say you want to start something new,

and it's breaking my heart you're leaving,

baby I'm grieving.

But if you wanna leave take good care,

hope you have a lot of nice things to wear,

but then a lot of nice things turn bad out there.

Oh baby baby it's a wild world,

it's hard to get by just upon a smile.

Oh baby baby it's a wild world.

I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do,

and it's breaking my heart in two,

cause I never want to see you sad girl,

don't be a bad girl,

but if you want to leave take good care,

hope you make a lot of nice friends out there,

but just remember there's a lot of bad and beware,beware

Oh baby baby it's a wild world,

it's hard to get by just upon a smile

Oh baby baby it's a wild world,

and I'll always remember you like a child, girl.

The frog in the shallow well

The frog is looking,seeing,staring,observing everything around him. It concentrates itself and focues on the ways he will choose. Look at its face, or even its eyes, trigged or worried? It might be wondering why the god likes joking with a poor frog kid.

Or perhaps it might vow to the god the words like I will get out that damned well where's full of nastily creaky crickets everywhere which make me sick, and you'll see the moment I create for you only and hear the gravely boomed voice from the remote top of Kilimanjaro.

All for you,the pushed around god.

  

Oh poor frog,clear your eyes and take action,you had better jump, jump, jump to get out,even though you would die, with the honor of trying. Remember you're born not to play silly tricks with those annoying ones, but to truly experience the beauty of sunshine, the sweetness of flower and the ultimate meaning of life you create.

  

You see, you are watching,either the god.

看到这个名称,我不禁笑了

螺丝帽见的多了,但一直没接触到相关的英文名称,前几天了解到这一块,结果看到名称我直接就笑了,这些个英文名称表达的能不能不这么形象啊,我承认我邪恶了一把.看图:

这叫 socket male tee 

                                     这叫socket female tee

                                      够形象~_~
