买鞋记
Hi, may I help you？
Yes. Can you show me your Nikes?
Certainly.
提示：一进店，热情的店员会招呼你。如果看上什么，先问售货员能否先看看：Can you show me your Nikes?
It's my style. I like it!
May I try it on?
Yes, of course.
提示：看上后就该试试合不合脚喽!这时要说：“May I try it on?” (我能试试吗？)
What's your size?
It's 36, thanks.
Okay, let me check for you.
提示：买鞋最重要的当然是鞋号了。当店员问穿多大鞋时，直接告诉他你的号码就OK啦!
Here you are.
(Trying on the shoes…)
Wow, these Nikes are so beautiful.
I'll take them. How much？
提示：既然试得合脚，那就不要犹豫，买下吧!这时你应该说:”I'll take them. (我要了。) 不要忘了问问店员多少钱哦! 这里问多少钱要用 “How much？”
Will there be anything else？
No，thank you. Here's the money.
提示：挑好一件东西后，店员一般会问你还需不需要买点别的。如果你不需要，那就说声“谢谢”吧!

【学好英语要拥有自信（predictable confidence）】
什么是可感知的自信？可感知的自信不是你盲目的大喊我很自信，而是你真的知道接下来将会发生什么事情。真正的自信来源于你清晰的知道事情的结果(true confidence comes not from positive thinking or wishing, it comes from absolute knowing)。我们大多数人学不好英语，一个重要的原因就是自己没有自信，其实每个人都有与生俱来的语言天份，但总在自我怀疑，或是报怨自己记忆不好，报怨自己不够聪明，这样的心理状态足以让他们走向失败的边缘。你要记住的是，报怨和怀疑对自己没有任何的好处，宁可说自己行，也不要说自己不行，而事实是你一定行,you can do it!只要你去寻找，你会发现许多的奥秘，这种发现将成为你自信的源泉！作者: pearrot 时间: 2012-8-4 23:05

Am I being petty?意思是：「我是气量小吗？」或「我是心胸狭窄吗？」(narrow-minded) 这是一个人做了或说了某件事情後，唯恐别人批评或指责而自加「反省」的表态。（或表示谦虚）这里用 verb to be 的现在进行式，表示气量小或心胸窄是「暂时性」的。而 Am I petty? 又是指「经常性」的。（但是谁又愿意承认自己是经常的气量小，心胸窄呢！所以为了「自尊心」，通常不说"I am petty"，只说"I am being petty." 同理：
Am I being over-reactive?（或 over sensitive?)（我是反应过火或过份敏感吗？） Are you being in bad mood?（你情绪不好吗？）都是强调「暂时性」。否则就不必使用现在进行式 (being)（主词可用任何人称代名词 you, we, he, she, they 等，动词可用任何时态。）作者: pearrot 时间: 2012-10-6 09:40
【学好美语必须掌握的地道习语】
FED UP——受不了了
范例：
Stop whinning. I'm fed up.
别哭了，我受不了了。
句型解说：be fed up不只是生气，而且忍耐到极限。不管是妈妈被小孩吵得受不了了、的老师被学生吵，或者是公共场合，你都可以常听到某人说fed up。此话一出，不仅表示生气，还意味着受不了，接下来的行动将会很激烈。
灵活应用:
1.I'm fed up, if you don't knock it off this minute, I'll beat you up.
我受不了了，如果你现在不停的话，我就要揍人了。
2.I'm fed up with this work.
这工作我实在受不了。作者: pearrot 时间: 2012-10-10 13:05

【分享】少儿英语教学重要原则
Hercules, once journeying along a narrow roadway, came across a strange-looking animal that reared its head and threatened him. Nothing daunted, the hero gave him a few lusty blows with his club, and thought to have gone on his way. The monster, however, much to the astonishment of Hercules, was now three times as big as it was before, and of a still more threatening aspect. He thereupon redoubled his blows and laid about him fast and furiously; but the harder and quicker the strokes of the club, the bigger and more frightful grew the monster, and now completely filled up the road. Pallas then appeared upon the scene. "Stop, Hercules," said she. "Cease your blows. The monster's name is Strife. Let it alone, and it will soon become as little as it was at first."
YELLOW: Yellow and black is the most unignorable colour combination in nature - tigers, stingingbees - it’s the colour that says: you’d better pay attention to me.
黄色：黄色和黑色是自然界最让人过目难忘的组合——老虎，蜜蜂都是这样一身装扮。这样的颜色是在宣告：你最好注意着点。
BROWN: Rustic, durable, wholesomeand deliciously rich are just some of the traits of the colour that’s often associated with earth and home, substance and stability.
棕色：纯朴、持久、健康、厚实，这些还不能概括棕色的所有特征。这种颜色经常与乡土、物质和稳定这些概念联系起来。作者: pearrot 时间: 2013-1-7 10:35

外企白领最IN的工作英语说法
进入外企，如果你想有条不紊的完成手里面堆成小山的工作，而且不会误了deadline的话，那你的法宝就是To Do List。一定要做一个很有条理的Excel表格，把项目的名称、期限、具体内容、特别注意、进展情况等都列成一个表，随时follow up自己的进度。这样，不仅能让自己变得有条理，而且在老板问起来的时候也好有个实实在在的东西给她/他看。同时，这也是日后写绩效评估的一个文字依据啊，何乐而不为呢?
1、指导学生依据课文内容表演会话。小学英语教材设计了很多的情景会话，很贴近我们平时的生活。如打招呼“hello，how are you”“I am fine ，thank you and you？”“I am fine too ，thank you”，“Nice to meet you”还有介绍自己的家庭情况“My family lives in x x x .My father is businessman,his name is xxx”……这样的内容极大地调动了学生的积极性。
A BULL, escaping from a Lion, hid in a cave which some shepherds had recently occupied. As soon as he entered, a He-Goat left in the cave sharply attacked him with his horns. The Bull quietly addressed him: "Butt away as much as you will. I have no fear of you, but of the Lion. Let that monster go away and I will soon let you know what is the respective strength of a Goat and a Bull."
It shows an evil disposition to take advantage of a friend in distress.
