聽(tīng)懂老外聊生活英語(yǔ)對(duì)話 旅行 33：拼車(chē)一族

　　Topic33 拼車(chē)一族

　　情境導(dǎo)讀

　　Kent最近經(jīng)常看到一位男子開(kāi)車(chē)接送Jane上下班，以為Jane交了男朋友，問(wèn)了Jane后才知道原來(lái)她玩起了“拼車(chē)”。

　　英語(yǔ)情景會(huì)話

　　(以下K代表Kent.J代表Jane)

　　K: Jane, so now you got a new one?

　　J: What?

　　K: A new boyfriend. I see him pick you up every morning.

　　J: You mean Jim? No. we are just sharing a car.

　　K: Car sharing? But why?

　　J: I don't want to take the crowded subway any longer.

　　K: You can buy a car yourself. Don't you have the driving license?

　　J: I got my driving license last month. I am a green hand now. What's more, I myself can't afford a new car.

　　K: Isn't taking taxi a better way?

　　J: It costs so much. And it is out of season now.

　　J: Yes, car pooling is very popular now. It can deal with increasing fuel costs and is also environmentally friendly.

　　K: It's not a bad idea.

　　英語(yǔ)筆記

　　1.這里 you 弱讀作/je/，/j/與前面的/t/連讀作/t?/，因此 don't you 讀作/d??n t??/。

　　2.myself 反身代詞需重讀。

　　3.out of season 是指“過(guò)時(shí)了”。

　　4.and 弱讀為/nd/，與 is 連讀為/nd?z/。

　　英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)

　　反身代詞要重讀

　　英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)中的反身代詞如myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself等需要重讀，正如文中的"I myself can't afford a new car."其中myself需要重讀。又如：

　　The old man himself fell down and hurt his head.

　　老人自己摔倒了，頭部受傷。

　　其中himself需要重讀。

　　We'll solve this problem ourselves.

　　我們自己來(lái)解決這個(gè)難題。

　　其中ourselves需要重讀。

　　但是，反身代詞在作賓語(yǔ)的時(shí)候無(wú)需重讀。如：

　　The old man fell down and hurt himself.

　　老人摔倒受傷了。

　　其中himself在句中作hurt的賓語(yǔ)，無(wú)需重讀。
