听力综合能力提高—— Day25
听力文本对照


听力片段一：

So I was born in Boston Massachusetts but I moved to Los Angeles when I was like four weeks old. So I basically was born and raised here. I wanted to be a truck driver cuz they had the biggest cars on the road, then I wanted to be president, then I wanted to be a NBA basketball player. I wanted to be Jeremy Lin basically.

知识点1:
断句：So I was born in Boston Massachusetts but I moved to Los Angeles
when I was like four weeks old.断句分成三个部分。

第一部分：So I was born in Boston Massachusetts
第二部分：but I moved to Los Angeles
第三部分：When I was like four weeks old.

原则：按照意群（thought groups）断句.如果你不知道如何划分意群，就按照语法现象去断句。每出现一个新句子，或者没出现一个新的语法现象都可以断句。

连读：But I 的连读要把t和后面I 连在一起；
表达： be like 大概的感觉；When Peter told me I was fired, I was like, are
you freaking kidding me? I’m the top 10% salesmen in our company.
文化：对地点的位置的认知。

知识点2:
搭配：be born and raised 土生土长的／bring up
例句：I was born and raised in China. 我是土生土长的中国人。
例句：I was born in China but I moved to America when I was like four weeks old and I was brought up there. 我出生在中国，但是在4周左右的时候搬家到了美国，我是在美国被抚养大的。

发音：n和t在一起，n是强音，t是弱音。N会把t给吃掉。所以wanted
会发音变成wanid.


听力片段二：

So before doing music I was an accountant. So when I graduated from college as a 2010 that was like the peak of unemployment, I don’t know if you guys know that, but so, um, I basically just was happy with any job I got and I was just really happy that I wasn’t unemployed, so accounting was very safe and so I did that, and I just didn’t enjoy it man. It just wasn’t for me. So I just moved on to music.

知识点1:
词汇：accountant 会计／safe 稳定，以前形容工作稳定，只知道stable.馅
子啊学会一个新词safe.
连读：when I 的连读，当辅音和元音在一起的时候就会连读。As a 2010作
为2010年毕业的学生。Peak和 unemployment 的重读。
句子：I don’t know if you guys know that. 我不知道你们了解不了解。这句
话建议大家背下来。
语调：语调一般就是三种，上扬，平调，以及下降。上扬可以表示正常的
问好，表疑问。比如Are you alright? Are you okay? Hello? 上扬也可以表示逗号，用来提示听着，句子没有说完。

知识点2:
It just wasn’t for me.这个不适合我。
…. Is so me. 这个太适合我了。


听力片段三：

There was a lot of verbal resistance from my family like ‘why are you quitting your job, you know, in this job market you got a job, why would you not appreciate it and quit and do music and If you are doing music, why aren’t you doing violin, that you know, we spend too much money and time on you for like 12 years. Why are you doing like singing when did you start singing’, you know like, but I didn’t ask them for any help financially and I was kinda like. I know my dad saw firsthand how much time I was spending when I was, you know while I was working or so. So I think he understood because he was here witnessing at all.

知识点:
1) verbal resistance言语的反抗，可以用来表示墨迹。Why are you doing something?你干嘛要做某件事情？Why would you not do something?你怎么能不做某事件事情呢？这都是非常常用的断句。大家不光可以用来做听力材料，也可以拿来做口语学习材料。

2) spend +钱／时间on 花费多少钱／时间做某事。

3) ask someone for help 想某人寻求帮助。

4) witness v.见证。
