Wonder how long I still have to wait....

Diary: Albert Einstein's Quotes

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” 
― Albert Einstein

Neither. I don't live my life as though nothing or everything is a miracle, but some things. So, I'm not a saint, or a confirmed negativist, idiot, but an ordinary man.

“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.” 
― Albert Einstein
It's really a cute word! Haha~

“If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.” 
― Albert Einstein
It really trains our ability to express ourselves.

“A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.” 
― Albert Einstein

Picture: Every Girl Dreams to Be a Princess 2

What pretty girls they are!

Be frank, I don't listen to their songs much.

I just like their face and clothes.

Don't hit me, if you're their fans~

Spanish Grammar: 并列复合句

Pero但是，empero可是，sin embargo然而，con todo尽管如此，solo que只是，salvo que除非，excepto que除了，fuera de que况且，no obstante尽管，aunque虽然，por lo demas此外。 并列复合句，反义的链接

Juan no es inteligente, pero trabaja mucho.

Antes bien相反的，sino而是，mas bien 与其说倒不如说

Mi novia no es rubia, sino que es morena. 我女朋友不是金发而是黑发。

推理式

Esta lloviendo, conque llevate el paraguas. 下雨了，所以你把雨伞带着。

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfZZ_WG4vos 進階西班牙語-並列複合句

累积式

Y和，e和，no…ni 既不也不，no solo…sino que tambien 不只…而且…

你说什么语言，我说西班牙语和英语。Hablo espanol y ingles. 因为这里ingles的首字母发音i，所以这里的y改成e。

Marta trabaja en un restaurante, cuida ninos y incluso estudia idioms. 玛丽亚不仅是在餐厅打工，照顾小孩，而且还学西班牙语。（更加，而且）

选择式

如果发音后面也是o的话，就改成u。o bien。

Por las mananas, o bien leian, o bien estudiabna un poco, o bien veian la television. 每天早上他是念书，或是看报纸，或者看电视

American Accent: l和n音的连读等

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ttm-ph_JeU0 容易誤讀的3個元音

发音发的标准，不是说你嘴巴一定要张的很大，你的嘴巴只要是按照他们的发音规律走，即使张的很小，也可以发的标准。

e的音，嘴巴扁扁的，微笑的感觉，往两边走。比如：Dead, pet, let

a的音，嘴巴可以稍微大一点点，往上下走，尤其下巴要往下走。Bed, Bad的发音区别（Bingo老师读Bed和Bad的区别真的是很明显，1分55秒处）。

还有i:和i的区别，也有提到。美国英语当中，i的发音并不是短促一点的i:哦。Sheep, did, big, lip. Leap, lip, sleep, slip, sheet, shit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cppHZksp-mM 之最易忽略的2個連讀技巧

L

Tell us, remember to call us. Paul is … (lis)

听力中比较难的连读：Him/her, tell him, 美国人连读的时候可能h就不发音，直接穿过去了。Just kill her.

N

N是有一点点鼻音。比如在读one的时候，one有点往里面收，有点鼻音的感觉。

正常语速 the first one is… 没问题。但是当美国人语速快的时候，会连读。The first one is… (nis)

这就是在看美剧的时候，为什么明明我们看到的是单词A，但听到的是单词B，因为有这些连读啊什么的因素在。

Win them over (win’em over)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9CuJlrdIx4 以tly, tely結尾的誤讀

那个t是不发音的。不发音不代表你不张嘴去发它，你也要张嘴，也要做那样一个口型。要有那个停顿感，不要直接忽略过去。Absolutely，Definitely，Lately，Recently，exactly。

English: 听歌学英语的注意事项

以前想过听英文歌学英语，
但是后来因为没耐心从头听到尾
所以还是放弃了
现在学英语基本上都不是从一而终的
想到看video，就看一下
想到听英文歌，就听一下
想要用阅读来增加词汇量，然后就浏览一下
不过Bingo老师把听英文歌学英语的弊处提及了
给人说清楚了，这样挺好的
下次我们准备听歌学英语的时候
可以取精华去糟粕了

他说：
不建议听英文歌学语法，但是可以学发音、连读、略读、rap里的俚语等等都可以。不要把所有精力都放在听歌学英语上，不然你的英语说出来有时候会有点奇怪。
1、英文歌中没有第三人称单数。she don't know/ it don't come。因为don't是一个音节，doesn't是两个音节。他们是故意这样的。
2、双重否定，在口语和英文歌当中仍然是否定的意思
3、英文歌中特别喜欢用ain't，因为它可以指代is not，are not, am not, have not, has not等等。所以英文歌当中一般不说 it isn't easy，而是说 it ain't easy. 因为ain't可以代替isn't等，而且isn't是两个音节，ain't是一个音节。

English Song: Seasons In the Sun 西城男孩（中英文字幕）

还是老歌好听。。。

可能也是因为我听的不多的缘故吧。。哈哈。。

Study Note: the real me, grace-living

The problem now becomes how can I encourage those tiny subatomic entities, which make up the real me, dance so that I may live with others more gracefully, more grace-giving?

English Song: Tik Tok

其实，我特别喜欢听普通人唱歌

可能因为明星歌手什么的太完美

反而没有听普通人唱出很好听的歌来的那么真实

那么惊喜

昨天也是随便浏览youtobe视频的时候

听到这个英文老师在唱这首歌

觉得好棒，好棒啊。。。

心情顿时激情澎湃起来

哈哈哈哈。。。

虽然有人说这个英文老师到底是在教学

还是在唱歌

不过反正我觉得

人有特长，而且别人捧场

肆意张扬一下的感觉也挺好的

偶尔的十几分钟活跃一下课堂气氛

拉近老师和同学之间的关系

挺好的

有时候适时的发挥一下自己的特长

展现出来的那种人格魅力

Amazing, fantastic!!!

害得我都想学唱英文歌了。

不过不是这种高难度的。。。。
