1.租房场景 这种题型,以前看人也介绍过,并且很详细,这里把他们总结在一起。 首先辨别是租房还是买房。For lease, for rent 出租与for sale 出卖 房子的类型有:公寓flat, apartment, 学生宿舍dormitory (dorm) , 学生旅店student hostel, 青年旅店youth hostel ,还有一种叫留宿当地居民家里homestay.

门厅的叫法:hall, lobby, porch 阳台balcony,睡房bedroom, 厨房kitchen,
租房的规律为: 离市中心越近,房价越高,位置稍偏,价钱会比较有吸引力;但便宜的房子一般有不理想的地方: not near the center, not near the railway station, far from the bus stop, near the airport, noisy, shared kitchen, insects, a stranger in the next bed, have no privacy, have to prepare some repellant令人厌烦 ,insects haunting. 闹昆虫
电话询问看房子常用语: Is it available now? when will it be available?.(audiy.com) Is there a telephone? How far is it from…….? Is it furnished? What is the rental price? How is it cooled /heated? Furnished:意为配备了家具。
2.课外研究场景. 主要是在课外研究一些小的项目,小的调查研究,包括对学校里各个地方,食品(咖啡,小吃)等的价格的比较,这些看似不屑一顾的东西,个人认为,这也是与文化背景有关系的,外国人注重人的实践能力,从小培训。听时特别关注的是人名,并注意先判断男女,以及各自的观点。
素食者vegetarian,馅饼pie,布丁果冻pudding,汤soup, 咖啡coffee, 炸鱼和土豆片fish and chips, 油腻的greasy 有时候让受访者谈论value for money, 看值不值得花这个钱,又或者谈论某计划应否开展。 表支持的,同意的: That’s great!/ That would be of great help./Why not? It’s of great benefit./ It would be your best guide. 不同意的: I don’t see any reason for that./I wouldn’t recommend it. To be frank, avoid them./ Why? /Why’s that? (部分场景详见后面10授课场景)
