[M] Hello, Lindsay, how are you?
[L] Hey, Michelle, happy to be on the microphone with you for our listeners today. I'm doing great. I'm doing great. How was your weekend?
嘿,米歇尔,很高兴今天能和你一起在麦克风上为我们的听众说话。我很好。我很好。你周末过得怎么样?
[M] Oh, it was nice. It was nice. I got to be outside a little bit.
So that was good. How about you?
[L] Wonderful. Yeah, I hiked a crazy high mountain over the weekend.
我周末爬了一座疯狂贼高的山。
[M] And you've always outdo me, Lindsay
你总是超越我
[L] No, but actually, I have a story. Real quick, real quick story.
We actually found a stray dog over the weekend.
不,但实际上,我有一个故事。真的很快,真的很快的故事。
周末我们实际上发现了一只流浪狗。
Yeah, it was really dramatic.
很戏剧化
So he followed us, we were scooting around Denver, and we found him on the lawn, and he tried following us, he almost followed us into the street.
他跟着我们,我们在丹佛周围飞驰,
我们在草坪上找到了他,他试图跟着我们,他几乎跟着我们到了街上。
So we tried to find his owner, couldn't find his owner,
took him to the vet, scanned his chip, because dogs now have a chip,
which like links them back to the owner, right
所以我们试图找到他的主人,却找不到他的主人,
带他去看兽医,扫描他的芯片,因为狗现在有芯片,
能快速找到他们的主人
Scanned his chip, couldn't know he wasn't registered.
So we took him to our house, but he didn't get along with our dog.
So we had to take him to the shelter.
扫描了他的芯片,但是发现他没有注册。
所以我们把他带到了我们家,但他和我们的狗相处得不好。
所以我们不得不带他去避难所。
But luckily, we were posted on Nextdoor, which is like our neighborhood forum.
And we got connected with the owner.
So the owner the next morning could go and pick the dog up.
但幸运的是,我们被发布在 Nextdoor 上,我们的社区论坛。
我们与业主取得了联系。
这样狗狗主人第二天早上就接走狗够了。
[M] Oh, good. Oh, wow. That's, that's quite a story
[L] It was quite a day. I mean, between hiking a 14 or 14,000 foot mountain,
and then, you know, finding a dog, it was a big day.
这真是美好的一天。我的意思是,在徒步 14 或 14,000 英尺的山之间,
然后,你知道,找到一只狗,这是一个重要的日子。
[M] I hiked an 18,000
[L] 18,000. That's almost like Everest or something
18,000。这几乎就像珠穆朗玛峰之类的
[M] Yeah, I yeah, Lindsay, I'm just gonna start making up stuff so I can compete
Okay, well, wow. Okay, well, that dog was lucky to find you
是的,是的,林赛,我要开始编造一些东西,这样我就可以竞争
好吧,好吧,哇。好吧,那只狗很幸运找到你
[L] Very lucky. Yeah. But anyways, we're not talking about dogs or hiking today
非常幸运。是的。但无论如何,我们今天不是在谈论狗或徒步旅行
[M] No, we're talking about TV
对,我们正在谈论电视
[L] TV, which offers a whole range of other adventures. Right Michelle?
TV,提供一系列其他冒险活动。对吧米歇尔?
[M] Exactly. I mean, Lindsay, I think that a lot of people when they're learning a new language, they kind of turn to the TV.
And I want to talk about this today. Like, is it a good idea?
Like, what are some of the benefits with learning English using the TV?
I don't know. What do you think?
正是如此。我的意思是,林赛,我认为很多人在学习一门新语言时,都会转向电视。
今天我想谈谈这个。就像,这是一个好主意吗?
例如,使用电视学习英语有哪些好处?
我不知道。你怎么认为?
[L] Well, you know, Michelle, I think what it comes down to,
and we do a lot of IELTS, you know, if you guys go find the IELTS Energy podcast,
we do a lot of IELTS preparation as well.
米歇尔,我想这归结为,
我们考了很多雅思,你知道,如果你们去寻找雅思能量播客,
我们也做了很多雅思考试准备。
We find that when students have a lot of material.
in their mind, they have stories, they have jokes, they have current events, they have sitcoms that they've seen funny situations
they have a lot to say, and they become more confident.
我们发现当学生有很多材料时。
在他们的脑海里,他们有故事,他们有笑话,他们有时事,他们有情景喜剧,他们见过有趣的情况
他们有很多话要说,并且变得更加自信。
Have you seen that, Michelle, with your students?
米歇尔,你和你的学生看到过这一点吗?
[M] Yes, I think so. Because, um, you just want to constantly be building up like your bank of material to be able to talk to people about something.
是的,我想是的。因为,你只是想不断积累你的材料库,以便能够与人们谈论某件事。
So like, for example, I always whenever like, I've had it where I've come into a classroom,
举例来说,每当我喜欢的时候,我总是在走进教室的时候,
Oh, what did you do over the weekend?
Oh, nothing. Really? Oh, I just stayed inside. I just you did nothing inside.
Oh, I watch TV
Oh, a lot of people spend their weekends that way. And that's fine.
哦,周末你做了什么?
哦,没什么。真的吗?哦,我只是呆在里面。我只是你在里面什么也没做。
哦,我看电视
哦,很多人都是这样度过周末的。那很好。
So maybe instead of saying nothing, you want to always try and actually put something forward.
