教案:

Our slang for today is all about parties!
我们今天的俚语是关于聚会的
So you know what parties are. It is an event with a lot of fun, you dance, talk to people.
你知道聚会是什么,是一个很有意思的活动,可以一起跳舞或者和别人聊天
It can also be the number of people in a group. If you go to a restaurant, and there is just you, and

you say “party of one please”.
它也可以代表一个团体里的人数。如果你一个人去饭店,你可以说party of one
And the host will take you to a table that has one chair. Or you can say a party of two if there are two

of you, et cetera.
然后领班会带你到一个桌子和椅子的位置就餐。如果有两个人的话你可以说party of two,以此类推
And there are some slangs that use the word “party”. One is pity party.
有一些俚语里用到了party这个词,例如pity party
Pity is when you feel bad for somebody. When you have a pity party, you are feeling sorry for yourself.
Pity是同情的意思。当你有一个pityparty,意思是你很自怜
Usually involves with talking a lot to people about how terrible things are
一般包含大家说一些事情有多么糟糕
and someone will tell you “stop throwing yourself a pity party, it’s not that bad. Let’s go out and

get some icecream!”
然后有个人告诉你不要自怜,事情没有那么糟,我们还是去吃点冰淇淋吧
So pity party is when you feel sorry for yourself and you don’t try to make it any better.
Pity party就是形容当你为自己感到遗憾并且不尝试着去改变
Another slang that uses the word “party” is party pooper.
另外一个有party这个单词的俚语是party pooper
You know what poop is, I don’t need to talk about that.
你知道poop是什么吧,我不需要去讲关于这个的
A party pooper is someone who is basically throwing themselves a pity party a lot.
Party pooper就是一个人总把自己放在一个很自怜的心态上
A party pooper is someone who is stopping everyone else from having fun.
一个partypooper的人总是让大家很扫兴
You know who I’m talking about. That one friend who says
你知道吧,有些人总会说
“What? You want to go to that park and play basketball? It’s way to far, what if it rains? What if

someone is there already?
什么?你想去那里打球?太远了,如果下雨怎么办?如果已经有人了怎么办?
What if my mom sees us? I’m supposed to be studying. It won’t be any fun.”
如果我妈妈看见我们怎么办?我应该在学习才对。肯定不会很有意思的
And someone says “Shut up, Brian, you are such a party pooper.”
这时候有人会说,布莱恩,闭嘴,你太让人扫兴了
So party pooper is someone who stops everybody else from having fun.
所以partypooper就是一个令别人扫兴的人
Now onto sentence structure. Here’s our example:
现在我们来看看句型这是我们的例子
“While Brian was at home studying, the rest of us played basketball in the park and got free ice

cream.”
当布莱恩在家学习的时候,我们在公园里打篮球并且得到了免费的冰淇淋
While A did B, C did D.
当A在做B的时候,C做了D
While my parents were sleeping, my friends and I went outside and looked at the stars.
当我父母睡觉的时候,我和朋友们出去看星星了
One last example, “While a painting dried, Fred cleaned off his brushes and desk.”
最后一个例子是当一张画的颜料在干的时候,弗莱德清理了笔刷和桌子
Usually you use it to either talk about someone doing a couple of things at once, or two different

people doing different things at the same time.
一般用在一个人在同时做两件事情的时候,或者两个不同的人在同时做两件不同的事
So that is our sentence structure, feel free to make your own sentence with it.
这就是我们的句型,来试试造自己的句子吧
Our etymology for today is “struct”, the Latin root for to build, to build up, to arrange.
我们今天的词源是struct,在拉丁语里是建造,整理的意思
When I heard “struct”, I immediately though “construction”.
当我听到struct,我会想到construction
Construction means to build something. Or it can mean the thing that you built, or the quality of that

thing.
Construction的意思是建造,或者指的是所建造的一个物体
It’s a really useful word. But when you think construction, you think of something being built,

something being arranged.
这是一个很有用的词。当你想到construction的时候,你会想到一个所建造和整理的物体
But again, remember, you can also talk about the thing that was built afterwards and you can say

the quality is also the construction of that thing.
不过construction这个词也代表一个物体的建造质量
You can actually end up with a sentence saying
你也可以说
“After the construction of the house, we could finally see the quality of the construction of that

construction.”
当这个房子的建成了,我们终于可以看到这个建筑的质量
A bit confusing, let’s do an easier word.
听上去很困惑吧,让我们试一个简单一些的词
Constructive. “Con” means with, “struct” is build. So you are helping somebody to build

something.
在constructive这个词里,con是一起的意思,struct是建造的意思。你在帮助一个人去建造
If I give constructive advice, I’m not saying “You need to stop doing that. Stop it.”
如果我有一个建设性的建议,我不会说你需要去停止做这件事
I would say, “You need to stop doing that, because this, and this is how.”
我会说你需要停止做这件事,因为如此,并且提供解决方法
I’m helping you make some changes to help build something better. Build better habits, build a

better ethic, anything really.
我在帮助你改变,从而去建设更好的事物。更好的习惯,道德,和任何事情
And then on the opposite side you have destructive. Something that breaks down, unbuild something.
反义词是destructive,是毁灭,破坏的意思
You can destroy something by just being mean to it, you can destroy by breaking it, burning it,

knocking it down, killing, you are just unbuilding something.
你可以通过破坏,燃烧,打翻,杀死的方式去毁灭某物
If you are destructive with it if you destroy it.
如果你对其是有破坏性的,你会去摧毁它
Last word I want to show you that uses this root is “industry”
最后一个例子是industry这个词
It has “str” in it. So we can guess that it’s either building a group of things or an arrangement of

things.
它有str,我们可以猜到它是关于建设或者整理一些物体
An industry is a group of people or companies that all make the same kind of product.
Industry(行业)是制造同一种产品的一群人或者公司
For example, you have the automobile industry which makes automobiles, or cars.
例如有汽车制造行业
And you have the clothing industry, the candy industry, list goes on.
也有纺织行业,糖果行业,等等
So remember, “str” or “struct” means to build or to arrange.
所以str或者struct的意思是建设和整理
I hope you learned something, and if you have any questions about today’s lesson or if you want to

practice using the sentence,
我希望你学到了一些知识,如果你有任何问题或者想去练习句型
