Life English 新開了生活英文標題



※ The view of Charles River at BU Bridge.





After getting rid of formal English,such as TOEFL or GMAT, I should 

learn some of life English.How did I get life English? Besides talking 

with Americans, watching TV and movies is also good way to get it, 

so I put an sub-topic, life English,under the main topic,English. It is 

useful to have communication withAmericans. good luck, everybody.



在擺脫正式英文後,像是托福、GMAT,我開始學習一些生活英文。要如

何學到生活英文呢?我想除了與美國人多多聊天外,看電視與看電影是不

二法門。所以我在英文的大標題之下放了生活英文的小標題還寫一些生活

用的英文,在跟美國人聊天這是非常有用的。這各位使用愉快。





Today, I just gave everyone a little examples.

今天就給大家牛刀小試一下。



<EX1> Mike is after Mary.

          麥克在瑪莉後面。(X)

          麥克正在追求瑪莉(O)



It is confusing, right? I learned it from movies. They used it often,

so I thought most of you should know this. Especially you are in the ages

when you are talking about love or having relation with your lovers.

這個很讓人混淆,對吧?我從電影上學到這個句子,而且他們很常使用,

所以我想對於大多數的你們應該要知道這個東西 ,特別是你們都在討論愛

情或談戀愛的年紀中。

RUTH&#39;S CHRIS



In some week in March, there was a restaurant week in Boston, 

so I, Chris, and Hui planed to go to RUTH'S CHRIS to have steaks.

In normal time, eating a steak cost me at least 40 dollars, but in the

week, I can have the same one and just spend 20 dollars.



在三月的某一周,波士頓有各餐廳週的活動,所以我,克里斯,慧就計畫

到茹絲葵大啖牛排。在平常的時間,吃一客牛排至少要40美金,但是在這

一週,我只要花費20美金就可以知道一模一樣的牛排。







Now, let me present the steak,and please do not drool. First of all,

it was an appetizer, looking like curry rice, but the taste  made me 

carzy because it was really delicious.



現在讓我來呈現這個牛排餐,請不要流下你的口水。首先第一道菜是開胃

菜,他看起來很像咖哩飯,但是這個味道讓我太瘋狂了,因為實在太美味

了。





The next was salad. I am the guy who does like to eat vegetable, but

I finished this salad. Looking at this salad, it had sweet vegetable oil.

It was attractive, wasn't it?!



下一到菜是沙拉。我是不愛吃蔬菜的傢伙,但是我也把這沙拉吃光光了,

看看這沙拉,上面還有一層甜甜的蔬菜油,真是誘人啊。







The main dish,USDA Prime Ribeye, was coming. When I first ate it,

I cannot say any word because nothing can interrupt me to enjoy 

this beef. My friend said that this beef was cooked in 400 C 

temperatory so that the beef can keep its sweet sauce.



主菜來了,那就是美國頂級肋眼牛排。當我吃第一口的時候,我說不出

話來,因為沒有任何是可以中斷我享受這牛肉。我朋友說這牛肉在攝氏

400度下烹烤,所以可以保有甜美的肉汁。 







Soup is creamed spinach. It was a little salty, and had strong cream

flavor. If you don't like spinach, do worry about it because this soup

does not have strong spinach flavor. By the way, this soup won't let 

you become strong Popeye.



湯是奶油波菜湯。喝起來有一點點鹹味,不過也有很濃郁的奶油香。如果

你是不喜歡波菜的人,不用擔心太多,因為這個湯沒有很強烈的波菜味。

還有喝完後,你不會變成強壯的大力水手。







The last one is dessert. I forgot it name. One is sweet yellow cream

with some fruit and mint. Another one is chocolate cup filled with 

chocolate cream. Both of them are sweet.



最後的是點心,我忘記點心的名字了。不過其中一個是甜甜的黃色奶酪,

配上一些水果和薄荷葉。另一個是巧克力做的杯子,填充巧克力奶油。

兩者都很甜。
