课堂教案:

Hello, welcome to the class today.For today’s slang, we will be talking about "all-nighters" and "one night stands."
大家好,欢迎来到今天的课程。今天的俚语,我们来讲通宵和一夜情。

Okay, I know, they sound really similar. They both have the word "night" in them.But you do not want to get them confused because they have very different meanings.
它们听上去很类似吧,这两个俚语里都有“晚上”这个词。但是你不想把它们混淆,因为它们的意思截然不同。

Let’s talk about one first: all-nighters.
让我们先看看通宵这个词。

"All-nighters" can be used like this: I am going to pull an all-nighter because I have so much homework.I definitely can’t get any sleep tonight.To "pull" an all-nighter means you are planning on staying up all night.
可以这样用:我需要通宵因为我有很多作业。今天晚上是睡不了了。意思就是你计划一晚上都不睡觉。

The term "one night stand" on the other hand, refers to…well…sleeping with someone.And never seeing them again.
一夜情,就是。。。和一个人睡觉。然后再也不会见到那个人。

For example, if you were at a bar, and you met someone nice and thought looked pretty good, then slept with them, and never saw them again. You just had a one night stand with this person.
如果你在一个酒吧,然后遇到了一个不错的人。觉得长的不错,然后一起过夜,并以后不会再见到了。那你和这个人就发生了一夜情。

So if someone asks you what you did over the weekend, make sure you have the two words separate.
如果有人问你上个周末做了什么,你需要分清楚这两个俚语。

To pull an "all-nighter" means to stay up all night.
通宵的意思是一晚上没睡觉。

To have a "one night stand" is to sleep with somebody.
一夜情的意思是和一个人过夜。

Those two phrases of slang sound very similar, but because their meanings are so different, you don’t want to get them confused.
这两个俚语听上去很接近,但是它们的意思非常不同,你不想将它们混淆。

Let’s talk about our sentence structure for today.
让我们说说今天的句型。

Here’s our example: Playing video games, though great for fun, can be bad if you play too often.
例如:虽然游戏很好玩,但是如果玩多了会不好。

So the structure of the sentence is "A, though B, has this effect C."
这个句型是 A,尽管B,会产生影响C

They’re opposites. They don’t mean the same thing. C will probably surprise you after hearing B.
B和C一般都是相反的,当你听到了B以后,C有可能会让你惊讶。

Our last example is : carrots, though you may not like them, are very good for you.
我们最后一个例子是 虽然你可能不喜欢胡萝卜,但是吃胡萝卜对你非常有益。

Okay? So remember that sentence structure – it will come back.Let me give you a tip for how to learn English more effectively.
现在要记住这个句型,因为我们接下来还要涉及。让我给你一个能更有效率学习英语的窍门。

I know a lot of you are practicing reading English. Reading is a very important part of learning a language.
很多人都在练阅读,阅读在学习一门语言里很重要。

And usually, you’ll want to pick up a book by a classic author like Hemingway, Shakespeare, or all sorts of other authors you hear people talking about.
一般你都想去读一些经典作者的作品,例如海明威和莎士比亚。

However, though these books are very educational,they can be very confusing, because of the Old English that is used.
但是,虽然这些书籍非常有教育意义,他们会比较让人困惑,因为是用古英语写的。

Recognize that sentence structure?
辨别出来这个句型了吗?

If you are trying to learn casual, modern English.I suggest you find a more modern book or you can check out one of the many blogs available on the internet.
如果你想学现代休闲英语,我建议你找一个现代一些的书籍或者在网上找一些博客文章。

These blogs can be about anything that you’re interested in, from computers, to cooking, to gardening, to mechanics as long as they’re grammatically correct, and don’t have spelling errors. You can be sure to learn useful, conversational English from these blogs.
我建议你找一个现代一些的书籍,例如电脑,厨艺,花艺,或机械,只要这些内容的语法正确并没有拼写错误。你就可以学到有用的会话英语。
