第 1 课：林登大街 46 号 ACT 1 – 2ACT 1-1 “我可以给您和您的小男孩拍张照吗？” 我可以给您和您的小男孩拍张照吗？ 我可以给您和您的小男孩拍张照吗 【故事梗概】 故事梗概】 自由摄影艺术家 Richard Stewart，正在为编出自己的影集《走遍美国》到处拍照。今天他在由纽约市曼哈顿区到斯塔滕岛的渡船上工作，回程中遇到了来自加州的一 位黑人妇女 Martha Vann 和她的小儿子 Gerald。Richard 想要给他们拍照。Richard: Excuse me.My name is Richard Stewart.I'm a photographer.May I take a picture of you and your little boy? Mrs.Vann: What's it for? Richard: It's for a book.Mrs.Vann: You're writing a book?

Gerald: Gerald.Richard: How old are you, Gerald? Gerald: Five.Richard: And where do you live? Mrs.Vann: We live in California.Richard: Well, welcome to New York.OK, just a second.I'm almost ready here.【语言点精讲】 语言点精讲】 1.Excuse me.My name is Richard Stewart.I'm a photographer.这是 Richard 在与陌生人搭讪并介绍自己。Excuse me 这个短语用来引起对方的注意。相当于汉语的“对不起，劳驾”。自我介绍时可以先介绍自己的名字，再说明自己的职业。介绍自己的名字时，可以像 Richard 一样，说 My name is Richard Stewart.也可以像 Mrs.Vann 那样，说 I'm Martha Vann.2.May I take a picture of you and your little boy? May I...是一种很礼貌的征求别人的同意的说法，相当于“我可以...吗？”。Richard 想要为 Mrs.Vann 母子拍照片，他首先要征得当事人的同意，否则闹出 肖像权的问题可不是好玩滴~~ 3.I appreciate your help.这是在受别人帮助或听了别人的忠告之后的感谢语。在 Richard 向 Mrs.Vann 说 明了照片的用途后，Mrs.Vann 欣然接受拍照的请求，之后 Richard 立即向对方表 达了感谢。这里也可以说 I really appreciate it.4.Welcome to New York.Welcome to… 是迎接客人的客套语。Richard 与 Mrs.Vann 母子攀谈几句后得 知母子二人来自于 California，于是 Richard 对他们说，欢迎到纽约来。又例如：Welcome to HJ English.ACT 1-2 “我可以帮忙吗？” 我可以帮忙吗？ 我可以帮忙吗 【故事梗概】 故事梗概】 Richard 准备为 Mrs.Vann 母子拍照，他需要使用反光板。这时，一位来自希腊的 交换生 Alexandra 主动提出要帮助他。照片顺利的拍完了。Richard 感谢了 Alexandra 并开始与她交谈。Richard: OK, Just a second.I'm almost ready here.Alexadra: Can I help you? Richard: Oh, please.Hold Gerald's hand, please.Great!Now point to the buildings.Terrific!Give Mommy a ki, Geral

d.Nice!Thank you, Gerald.And thank you, Mrs Vann.Mrs.Vann: Oh, my pleasure.We'll be looking for your book.Richard: Thank you.Good-bye.Bye, Gerald.Thanks again.Alexandra: Oh, you're welcome.Richard: Hey, let me take your picture!Alexandra: Wonderful.Please.Richard: Are you from New York? Alexandra: No, I'm from Greece.I'm an exchange student.Richard: When did you come here? Alexandra: Three months ago.Richard: Your English is very good.Alexandra: Thanks.I studied English in school.【语言点精讲】 语言点精讲】 1.Can I help you? 在为别人提供帮助前，我们可以说 Can I help you? 也可以说 Let me...（让我，允许我），如本文中，Richard 对 Alexandra 说“Hey, let me take your picture!” 但是这种说法没有 Can I...的礼貌程度高。如果我们愿意接受帮助，则可以回答“Oh, please.” 或者“Yes, please.”。也可以 像 Alexandra 那样很可爱的讲“Wonderful.Please.” 2.Great!/ Terrific!/ Nice!在拍照的过程中，Mrs.Vann 母子每在他的要求下摆一个新的姿势，Richard 都会 对他们的配合给予肯定。他用到的“Great!Terrific!Nice!” 都是用来表示“太好了，好极了，很好”的意思。3.We'll be looking for your book.这里的 look for 是寻找的意思。4.My pleasure./ You're welcome.当别人对你表示感谢时，可以用“My pleasure.”或者“You're welcome.”来进行回 应。ACT 1-3 “ 你想来点咖啡吗？” 你想来点咖啡吗？ 【故事梗概】 故事梗概】 在交谈中，Alexandra 表示希望了解一下 Richard 的书。于是 Richard 向她展示 了自己为这本书拍的一些照片。同时，Richard 也向她展示了自己家人的照片。下面，上音频~~Richard: Your English is very good.Alexandra: Thanks.I studied English in school.Richard: Would you like some coffee? Alexandra: No, thank you.Tell me about your book.Richard: Oh, it's not finished yet, but I have some of the pictures.Would you like to see them? Alexandra: Yes, I'd like that.Richard: Here they are.Family Album, U.S.A..It's an album of pictures of the United States: the cities, the special places, and the people.And these are pictures of people working: steel workers, bankers, police, street vendors, ambulance drivers, doctors...Oh, this is my father.He's a doctor.This is my mother.Alexandra: What's her name? Richard: Ellen.My younger brother, Robbie.He goes to high school.This is my sister Susan.She works for a toy company.Here's my grandfather.He lives in Florida.And this is my wife Marilyn.Alexandra: Oh, she's very pretty.Richard: Thanks.【语言点精讲】 语言点精讲】 1.Would you like some coffee?Would you like...相当于“你想要...吗？”，在客气地请对方做某事或请客时用。如本文中，Richard 问 Alexandra“想来一点咖啡吗”，他说 “Would you like some coffee?” 在谈到自己的书 Family Album, U.S.A.时，他问对方“想要看

看一看吗”，“Would you like to see them?” 如果我们不想接受，就说“No, thank you.” 如果愿意接受，则说“Yes.I'd like that.” 或者“Yes.Please.” 2.Here they are.把东西给别人看时用。单数时用 Here it is.3.Thanks.在本情境中出现的两次“Thanks”都是对于别人赞美的回应。称赞对方，或对方的家人，是美国人很重要的一种社交习惯，被人称赞时，要表示 乐于接受并愉快地感谢，不要急于否认或自贬，也不要表现得扭捏不安。所以无论 是人家说你的英语好--“Your English is very good.”，还是称赞你的夫人很漂亮--“Oh, she's very pretty.”，都不必不好意思，只要说声 “Thank you” 就可以 了。ACT 1-4 “ 很高兴认识你。” 很高兴认识你。【故事梗概】 故事梗概】 Richard 问到了 Alexandra 的家庭及个人情况。在交谈中，Richard 突然想起了与 自己的妻子还有约定，于是与 Alexandra 匆匆告辞，下船离开。这时 Alexandra 发现他忘了拿一个挎包。她拿起它，赶紧追他……Richard: And what about your family? Alexandra: They're in Thealoniki.That's a large city in northern Greece.But now I'm living in the Bronx.Richard: With a Greek-American family?Alexandra: No.Hispanic.Richard: Oh no!It's five thirty.Will you excuse me? I have to meet my wife.Alexandra: It was nice meeting you.Richard: It was a pleasure meeting you, too.Thanks for your help.And good luck!I've got to go.By the way.I'm Richard.What's your name? Alexandra: Alexandra.Richard: Bye-bye, Alexandra.Thanks.Alexandra: Bye-bye.Richard!Richard!You left your bag.【语言点精讲】 语言点精讲】 1.And what about your family? What about…在这里用以询问别人的情况，相当于 Tell me about… 2.the Bronx 是纽约市的五个行政区之一。另外的四个如下： Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island 3.Hispanic 意思是西班牙语系的，西班牙的。Alexandra 和一个讲西班牙语的家庭一起生活。4.It was nice meeting you./ It was a pleasure meeting you.很高兴认识你。与新朋友第一次见面时可用此用语告别。5.I've got to go.这句表达的意思是“我必须得走了”，与 I must go, I must be off 之类的告别语 同义。6.By the way… 此短语在转换话题或者作补充说明时用，相当于汉语中的“顺便说一下……”。
