SPEAKING
芭比有个外教老师对养花很有心得,家里的果皮都被她做成了肥料,
家里就像一片绿色森林~~
当我夸她时,她自诩到:Haha, I have green fingers.你们知道green fingers什么意思吗?
01. have green fingers什么意思呢?
have green fingers:很擅长园艺,有高超园艺技巧, 在园艺这块有天赋
-You do have green fingers. You can even save those plants that I almost killed.你真的很擅长园艺。甚至能把那些我快养死的植物救活,
-I really envy people who have green fingers. I can't even keep scindapsus aureus alive. [sɪnˈdæpsəs] ['ɔrɪəs] 我很羡慕那些懂园艺的人,我连绿萝都养不活。
02. 5个手指头的英文
ˈindex finger/pointer finger/forefinger:食指我们会用食指来指某个方向,pointer意思是“指引“, 动词是:point,指出index也是“指针”的意思,都是指方向的所以食指叫:
pointer finger ,index fingerfore意思是前面的,前部的
食指靠近一个手掌的前部,所以也叫forefinger。
middle finger:中指ring finger:无名指little/ pinky finger:小指“小指”称为little finger很好理解,
但外国人也常用pinky finger有不少人猜测是不是因为外国人喜欢把小指涂成pink的颜色
这样记也挺好
不过,pinky最早源自pinkie这个词,也是small, tiny(小的)的意思
所以,外国人也会把”小指“称为pinky finger。
03. Burn your finger什么意思?
That camp within the leadership that had been pushing for at least a transactional relationship with the United States, has been really cornered and marginalized because they've had their fingers burned.
伊朗领导层内部过去一直立主至少与美国保持贸易关系的阵营事实上已陷入困境并且被边缘化,原因是他们由于自己的错误决策而受到了惩罚。
谁会没事烧自己的手指呢?
除非是没事闲着或者愚蠢至极
burn one's fingers或had one's fingers burned由于多管闲事(愚蠢行为)而吃苦头(尤其指损失金钱)
-You know nothing about these risky stocks. You're burning your fingers.你对风险高的股票一窍不通。你这是在自讨苦吃。
-I thought I would make a big fortune through investments, but I ended up with burning my fingers. 我以为通过投资会让我大赚一笔,结果赔了。

PRONUNCIATION
Step 2:学习原声 (无字幕) 常速x2 慢速x 2原声台词
I feel that I got lucky, because any sense of security was pulled out from under me. So I was forced to look forward. I had to. There was no going back.
我感到很幸运,因为我很没有安全感。所以我被迫向前看。我必须向前,没有能后退的路。
要点总结知识:pulled out, from under连读;易错:security, /t/可以弹舌;
易错:pulled, 注意/ʊ/→/l/→/ʊl/→pull的过渡 ;易错: forward,注意区分两个不同的卷舌音: /ɔr/和/ɚ/;
请翻译
如果你继续赌博,你会吃到苦头的。
