英語口語職場篇 業(yè)余時(shí)間
Shen Shuo: I read or go swimming, go shopping, usually. I run or play tennis or do something else like those to get some exercises to keep fit.
Tina: Are you introverted or extroverted?
Shen Shuo: I wouldn't call myself extroverted. Sometimes, I enjoy being by myself very much. But other times, I like sharing activities with others too, especially during these last few years.
Tina: What kinds of sports do you like?
Shen Shuo: I like almost all sports, and I enjoy both playing and watching. I especially like tennis and mountain climbing.
Tina: What kind of personality do you think you have?
Shen Shuo: Well, I approach things very enthusiastically, I think, and I don't like to leave something half-done. It makes me nervous—I can't concentrate on something else until the first thing is finished.
重點(diǎn)講解：
spend 花費(fèi)(時(shí)間、金錢等)
例句：I will spend two hours doing my homework today. 我今天要花2個(gè)小時(shí)做作業(yè)。
相關(guān)表達(dá)：
spend(花錢+on、花時(shí)間+in)
1. sb. spend some money on sth.
e.g. I spend 1 yuan on the pen.
2. sb. spend some time in doing sth.
e.g. He spends two hours in finishing his homework.
3. sb. spend some time in (doing) sth.(重點(diǎn))
e.g. Though I spend much time in math, I still got "c" for it.
(誤區(qū)：一般人認(rèn)為表sth.的"math"前應(yīng)加on，但是這里是把math前的動詞省略的緣故造成的誤區(qū)。判斷方法：表花時(shí)間做某事用in，花錢買某物就用on，這個(gè)應(yīng)該很快就能判斷出來了，就不會造成誤選，這是考試最常考到的，要注意啊)
cost (+to do)
1. sth. cost sb..(賓語形式) some money.(花錢買某物)
e.g.This book cost me 10 dollars.
2. It cost sb.(賓語形式) some time to do sth.(花時(shí)間做某事)
e.g. It cost me 2 hours to finish the homework.
pay (+for)
sb. pay some money for sth.(某人花錢買某物)
e.g: I pay 10 dollars for this book.
take 主語一般是it，句型：it takes/took ___ for sb. to do sth.
蒂娜： 你如何打發(fā)你的業(yè)余時(shí)間?
沈碩： 我通常是讀書，或者是去游泳、逛街。我利用跑步、打網(wǎng)球之類的運(yùn)動來保持健康。
蒂娜： 你屬于內(nèi)向型還是外向型?
沈碩： 我不認(rèn)為我自己屬于內(nèi)向型。有時(shí)我喜歡獨(dú)自一個(gè)人。但是其他時(shí)候，我會花許多時(shí)間和大家一起參加活動，尤其是近年來。
蒂娜： 你喜歡什么樣的活動?
沈碩： 我喜歡幾乎所有的運(yùn)動。我不僅喜歡自己運(yùn)動也喜歡觀賞運(yùn)動。我特別喜歡網(wǎng)球和登山。
蒂娜： 你認(rèn)為你有什么樣的性格特點(diǎn)?
沈碩： 嗯，我總是很熱情地完成事情。我不喜歡做事虎頭蛇尾，那樣會使我緊張。在第一件事完成后，我才能集中精力做其他的事。
