Feedback on Quick Response II and More on 12/18/2004
謝謝David Jr. 主持的星期六的聚會,起初還怕只有七、八位出席,後來陸續又增加了十位。針對聚會形式而非主持人,我的感想如下:
優點:
1. 富挑戰性。
2. 考驗急智及即興。
3. 每人都必須至少三分鐘的發言。
缺點:
1. 偏離讀書會的宗旨(「讀書」)。
2. 多數時間都只能聽,不准說(既不可提問題也不可回答問題)。
3. 會員之間互動不足。
Glitches Overheard & Vocabulary
1. a MUSICIAN movie -> a movie ABOUT (a group of) MUSICIANS
2. ALTHOUGH my English is poor, BUT today I have BRAVE to come here…-> My English is poor, BUT today I have THE BRAVERY to come here…/ My English is poor, BUT today I have THE GUTS to come here…
3. before you sleep -> before you GO TO SLEEP / before you FALL ASLEEP
4. BY my observation -> FROM my observation
5. Can we be MORE BRAVE? -> Can we be BRAVER?
6. Darren的特別之處the specific about Darren -> what’s special about Darren
7. How CAN I BE created? -> How WAS I created?
8. I can learn things BY other people. -> I can learn things FROM other people.
9. I have joined the club for three years. -> I joined the club three years ago. (join是瞬間動詞momentary verb,其動作不能延續三年,因此應改用過去時態,並將for three years改為three years ago。但改用靜態的be動詞,可以表達for three years連續三年的「狀態」,如:I have been a member of YOYO Club for three years.)
10. I HOPE EVERYONE CAN enjoy your life. -> I wish EVERY ONE Of YOU WILL enjoy your life. / I wish ALL Of YOU WILL enjoy your life. / I wish EACH Of YOU WILL enjoy your life.
11. I PREPARE OTHER FOUR. -> I PREPARED FOUR ADDITIONAL (SUBJECTS).
12. let your English more correct -> help you use English in a better way
13. my another hobby -> another hobby of mine 我的另一項嗜好 (根據S.I. Hayakawa的Choose the Right Word:嗜好hobby是指「在一個小領域內一種可能會培養出複雜知識或才能的活動」,它特別暗示蒐集或手工藝活動,而這些活動經常是自己在家做的,很少涉及為運動而運動的體育活動。若不是合於這樣的定義,大概只能叫interest「興趣」或pastime「消遣」吧。)
14. My thinking can be more mature. -> I can think in a more mature way.
15. My WORK IS an engineer. -> I AM an engineer.
16. pick one NOTE -> pick one SLIP
17. public benefit -> charity (公益)

23. They're just high-school graduated. -> They had only high school education.
24. to have A interview in English -> to have AN interview in English
25. to STRENGTHEN my English -> to IMPROVE my English.
26. TRAVEL by myself is lonely. -> TRAVELING by myself is lonely.
27. What kind of thing is worthy or not -> Whether doing that kind of thing is worth it or not
28. When I graduated from my graduate school -> When I graduated from graduate school(graduate school非個人物品,不宜用my school,但可說our school)
29. You will know ME MORE. -> You will know MORE ABOUT ME.
30. 如果你不要的話If you don’t want -> If you don't want IT

真是太讚了
以前看到Wayne寫的Glitches
只是覺得很讚
這次看到自己說的話
被訂正出來
真是太讚了
好像在上免費的英文課
建議:
以後中場休息和聚會終場
都請Wayne來個教學時間
然後大家把正確的句子大聲說三次
相信會印象深刻
學的更好喔
聽說有English club就是這樣的
one more
真是太讚了
thanks Wayne very much.

Re: 真是太讚了
謝謝Helen的支持和鼓勵 .但我覺得當場提出來會有點尷尬 ,何況有些地方我也需要回家再求證 .所以可能還是用現在的方式吧.Helen 寫:
