介绍:
The weekend is coming!
The first thing we're going to talk about is "difficult situations"
Can you tell me a difficult situations that you've been in?
I'll give you some examples.
I had an argument with my girlfriend.
Or
A wild animal came into my house!
But first... Have you ever been in a difficult situation?
Hello! Have you ever been in a difficult situation?
What did you do when you felt very stressed?
A: Have you ever been in a difficult situatoin?
B: Yes, I've felt very stressed before.
A: What do you do when you feel very stressed?
B: I .......
"When I have to finish a lot of work in a short time, I feel very stressed."
What do you do when it's 2:00am and you can't sleep?
"I watch a funny movie, or read something interesting."
Don't forget, we can use yesterday's grammar
A: What do you do when it's 2:00am and you can't sleep?
B: It's a good idea to ....
that's a good answer... You feel like you need more time to study for yourself?
Let's try to keep the answers simple ...
It makes the questions easier.
If we try to make very 复杂的 answers, then it gets confusing.
Let's try this one: What do you do when someone standing near you faints?
Faints = 晕倒了
Yes, in America it's 911
Good that you know that, if you ever have problems in the US
What should I do if I lose my keys in my house?
You could use the verb "check"
It's important to check your pockets, jackets, and bags.
Again, simple sentences!
不要太复杂!
Okay, let's continue on...
But don't forget this grammar
It's important to ..... It's sometimes helpful to ..... It's a good idea to ......
Containers!
Remember studying this the first time?
容器.
Each kind of product comes in a different "container"
Bag, Bottle, Box, Can
Jar, Pack, Stick, Tube
How about the meaning of these things?
Do you remember them all?
"stick" is a bit odd..
Those are all "sticks"
This one is from Alibaba
Let's do #1 first
A ....... of toothpaste
odd is 奇怪
In China, not many products come in "sticks"
But in America, it's very common.
How about #2?
Are there any products in China that come in tube?
Bottle, I think there are many...
Good, "Skin Care Products"
There are lots of skin care products that come in tubes.
How about #3?
Look at the picture first
Bandages
Usually there are many of them in a box.
Lots of other things come in a box too.
太多了
#4 we'll skip
How about #5
And the last one is #7
#6 I don't think is very common in China ... maybe? "A jar of face cream"
I think women use "jars of face cream"
I never bought that before.
That's a jar
That's a bottle
A jar you use your fingers to get the product out.
In America we have lots of different types of paper products
A tissue is use for your nose
A napkin is used to eat food
A paper towel is used to clean
Yes, this is a traditional "jar"
That is a paper towel... only for cleaning
I hope that's clear
Lots of food comes in boxes too
Food comes in boxes, cans, and bottles, and bags.
multivitamins is difficult to say
Okay, there are some really good sentences in this dialog
Like "I think I'm getting a cold."
Yes, the more you practice ... the easier it gets
Don't worry about the word stress too much. Each time you study a new word
just learn how to say that word, 就OK了
"I think I'm getting a cold.
We have another 口语化 way to say this
"I think I'm coming down with something."
"I think I'm coming down with something" means ... "I think I'm getting sick."
Oh my ... we're out of time again
So for the weekend, you should study Section 9
Can/May I ....?
And also do the Reading in Section 13
It's very interesting.
Next week is our last week of class..
If I have the date correctly...
So we will Finish Lesson 11
And then do a big review of the entire book.
