Learning Vocabulary-(学习词汇)
A：I don't understand why we have to memorize conversations.We need more vocabulary, not pronunciation.
我弄不懂为什么我们一定要记住会话。我们需要的是词汇，而不是发音。
B：Don't you think memorizing conversations is a part of learning vocabulary?Every time we memorize a conversation, we're memorizing a whole series of contexts.Each context tells us one way a word can be used.I know from my own language that I can't always use words by simply looking them up in a dictionary and then putting them into sentences. Some words have many meanings. We have to know which meanings go where.
你不认为记住会话是学习词汇的一个组成部分吗？每当我们记住一句会话，我们就记住了全部的上下文。而这上下文可以供我们了解一个单词的一种用法。我从自己的语言中意识到，光靠查词典然后把这些词汇拼成句子，并不意味着会正确使用这些词。有些意识有很多解释。我们必须弄清楚在哪种情况下适用哪一种解释。

英语课？

是的，我想尽量多学一点。我总是听不懂人家讲的话，别人也听不懂我讲的话。
A：What're you learning about?
你在学习什么呢？
B：Well. For instance, some words in a sentence are stressed.The time between two of these stressed words is always about the same. No matter how many words there are.This is what makes English sound jerky. First you go very fast, and then perhaps you slow up.
嗯，例如，在一句话中的有些词是加重语气的,其中两个词间隔的时间总是几乎一样的。不论一句中有多少加重的词,这就使英语的音调显得不平稳。开始你说得很快，后来可能慢下来。
A：Hmmmm. I never noticed that. Give me an example.
哦，我倒从来没有注意到这点。给我举个例子。
B：Sure, Here's a sentence we memorized for class. "You told me last night not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time."It takes just as long to say"not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time"as it does to say"you told me last night"
可以。这儿有一句我们在上课时应记住的话："You told me last night not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time。"在说"not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time"这段话的时间就和说"you told me last night"这句话一样长。
