I Wanna Be Loved By You ————电影“热情似火”
Key words:wanna,alone,boop boop te do(no special meaning in it, but just make the song sounds happier and much more lively)
Too Much Love
Duren的例句中,涉及爱情的东西过多了。
印象中的第一次,是他说到一个叫Liz的女孩,他很难忘记她,永远想着她:I just can't get over Liz.Duren迷人深情的眼神,让我明白,他不是在举例,而是在表白。那次,我很感动。
但是慢慢的,特别是我开始整理“动感英语”的文字稿之后,我便发觉差不多每两节课就会出现一个有关爱情,有关男女朋友的例句。特别是最近这十节课(37期到46期),大有愈演愈烈之势:
I was in love with my girlfriend untill I found out that she told all her girlfriends that I was stupid.She's such a back-stabber.
Hey I know you broke up with your girlfriend and you are depressed.But snap out of it.It's not the end of the world.
Hey have you lost your marbles?Don't tell your girlfriend she's ugly.
Are you losing your marbles?Are you really got married that guy?
He really has a gift with the ladies. He always has a date on Friday night.
Of course,you have the permission to marry my daughter,young man.You're a good man.I've seen how you taked care of your family.
There was a really cute guy at the meeting.I asked to have a word with him so I can get his phone number.
They weren't allowed to be seen together,so they made a rendezvous for Wednesday afternoons.
That girl's history.I dumped her three monthes ago.
太过频繁了,对么?
我上新东方的考研辅导班,五位老师的课堂上无不大谈爱情。其实爱情本身没什么不好,只是被提及过多,则有以此吸引听众之嫌。显得不够自信,格调不高。
短短的15分钟,经典的词汇,新颖的节目编排,更加重要的是有亲爱的Duren老师,所有的这些足以吸引眼球,足以吸引那些“喜欢电影想学好美式英语的人”。所以建议,今后的节目中,可以有意识地减少一些相关话题,哪怕只为了避嫌呢。
所谓“爱之深责之切”。喜欢这个节目,感受到Duren的才华,自信和雄心,所以盼望着它和他能一路走好。

前天Duren说:“Don't look up to me,okay?I know I'm good,but I could be better,right?”
我对着电视回话:“Yep.I believe.”
