monologue

the feeling threat can make people take

some extreme actions for instance in

America people feel so threatened by the

possibility they may be the victims of a

crime that it causes them to want to own

a gun one of the main arguments against

making guns illegal for private citizens

to own is that people should have the

right to defend themselves the

Constitution of the United States does

have a provision about the right to bear

arms in the Bill of Rights however

according to some experts this refers to

the right of the states to have

well-regulated militias to defend

themselves there is a lot of controversy

whether or not this right extends to

individual citizens either way the fear

of crime has greatly contributed to a

belief by many that guns our right of

every citizen they even say this in the

face of the statistic that a person is

more likely to injure himself or someone

he knows that an assailant thus it has

been impossible to ban guns and

difficult to even pass gun control

legislation people have even objected to

such laws that would limit a person to

buying only three guns a month and

having to wait three days so that a

background check can be completed to

make sure criminals and mentally

unstable people cannot acquire guns

money troubles I hope they’re not too

serious if I can get a job soon then I

can stop worrying I didn’t know you were

out of work I’m a musician

and I often don’t have regular jobs I

guess that is the life of a musician my

parents keep asking when I plan on

getting a real job that has a regular

salary why do you keep being a musician

if it pays so badly it’s the job I love

I can’t imagine doing anything else so

what happens if you don’t get a job soon

I have to my rent is due next week and I

have to make a car payment at the end of

the month

that is a reason to be stressed not only

that but I also have to pay utilities

and go grocery shopping no wonder you’re

worried this waiting for a job is

nerve-racking

are you expecting a job I’m supposed to

hear from someone today there is a bar

that might want to have some live music

on Saturday nights I hope you get it me

resort oh it’s that borrowing money for

proud of me I think you’re putting too

much pressure on yourself you’ll never

do well if you’re this anxious

college but this is the first time she’s

ever lived away from home she’s smart

welfare she’s 18 years old you can stop

worrying about her because she’s an

adult no matter how old she gets she’ll

yourself sick maybe I should call her to

want her to stay healthy she knows to do

Health Center at the University but they

monologue

when asked what is their biggest worry

many Americans will say money money

issues could be very stressful for some

people even relatively well-off people

in the upper middle class have financial

concerns one of the biggest money costs

to the average family is housing unless

a couple is independently wealthy they

either have to rent a place to live or

take out a mortgage to buy a home a

mortgage is alone that a bank gives to

an individual to buy a home this is one

of the most significant debts than most

families incur the next most expensive

household item is a car for many

families two cars are necessary America

does not have a highly effective system

of public transportation outside of a

few large cities

therefore if both parents work and they

both need a car to commute if only one

works then the other needs a car to run

the daily household errands

thus a monthly car payment is added to

the family’s budget one of the easiest

and fastest ways to get deeply in debt

is a credit card credit cards are easy

to obtain and market it extensively it

allows a person to charge up to his or

her spending level per month they must

make monthly payments on what they

charge if they charge more than what

they can pay in a month anything still

owed will have interest added on people

get into trouble and they have many

credit cards and like to spend more than

they make finally if a couple has

children then they must also consider

how to pay for their college education a

college education is becoming more and

more necessary to make a decent living

so enrollment rates in college are at

their highest all these costs can

produce a lot of stress and one of the

main causes that lead to divorce is

arguing about money

[Music]

deception

basic patterns

you tricked me

I was deceived in this business deal

his words were very deceptive

you allowed yourself to be deceived

don’t be fooled by his friendly words

he was completely fooled by his enemy

don’t let appearances deceive you

you can’t fool me that easily

he was tricked out of his money

I can’t believe I was such a fool

she would have contacted my parents if I

couldn’t have come up with a good excuse

it’s only a white lie so it’s no big

deal

my conscience would weigh heavily on me

I had to make something up so I wouldn’t

get into trouble

are you sure that you had to be

dishonest

[Music]

dialogue 1

are you feeling better I’m feeling fine

I haven’t been sick but our teacher said

that you missed class because you

weren’t feeling well

she said you caught the flu oh that’s

right I had to tell her I was sick so

she would excuse my absence do you mean

you weren’t sick no I’m healthy as a

horse why would you lie I didn’t want

her to tell my parents that I wasn’t in

school she would have contacted my

parents if I couldn’t have come up with

a good excuse why would you lie to both

your parents and your teacher I really

wanted to go see a movie why didn’t she

wait until after school it was only

showing once and it was a matinee it’s

not good to lie to people it’s only a

white lie so it’s no big deal what about

the work you missed since our teacher

thinks I was sick she’s letting me make

up the work so really I didn’t miss

anything and what if you get caught I

don’t think I will but even if I do the

movie was worth it even if you get into

serious trouble even then

dialogue to

how do you think you’re going to do on

tomorrow’s test not very well I haven’t

been paying much attention in class

lately what if I told you there was a

surefire way you could get an A I

wouldn’t believe you I don’t know any of

the material that will be on the test

that doesn’t matter I promise you

there’s a way do you want to know

absolutely I’ll tell you but you have to

promise to keep it a secret I swear I

will I’ve got all the questions and

answers to the test all you have to do

is memorize the answers to get a perfect

score isn’t that cheating yeah

but don’t you want to pass how did you

get it I stole a copy of the test from

the teacher she doesn’t even know it’s

missing what if we get caught in the act

we can’t get caught all we have to do is

make sure we remember all the answers

the teacher won’t suspect a thing since

there are no papers or other evidence to

prove us guilty I don’t know about this

come on what do you have to lose we

could fail the test and get suspended

for cheating

I told you that we aren’t going to get

caught

I just think cheating is wrong my

conscience would weigh heavily on me do

you want to fail of course not

then how else will you get a good grade

I’ll have to think about it

ugh three

I heard you got a flat tire this morning

on the way to work I really didn’t what

do you mean I had to make something up

so I wouldn’t get into trouble what

really happened I was up very late last

night so I didn’t get much sleep and

woke up very late why didn’t you just

tell the truth because the truth sounds

irresponsible why did you get to bed so

late

I went to a party and ended up staying

later than I planned being late because

of car problems is more professional

than saying I overslept because I

partied too much the night before that

doesn’t sound very responsible did you

miss anything this morning I missed a

very important conference so I couldn’t

tell the boss the truth he would have

fired me on the spot why do you think he

would be so harsh because he had to

cancel the conference because I was

absent are you sure that you had to be

dishonest wouldn’t he have understood I

had to lie he doesn’t really like me and

he’s just looking for any excuse to fire

me do you think he believed you I have

my doubts but he couldn’t prove I was

lying to him so he had to accept my

reason how do you think he feels about

you now I think I’m hanging on to my job

by a thread

I believe if I screw up one more time

I’ll be out of a job I guess you’ll have

to be extra careful I’ll have to stay on

my toes

monologue

skipping class is something quite common

in American colleges college is often

the first time young people have a

chance to live on their own without

supervision this excitement and novelty

of being on their own for the first time

often leads to some irresponsible

behavior without a parent’s nagging

voice that they should go to school some

students slip into the bad habit of

sleeping through classes instead of

waking up on time to go to them not only

do they miss the information that is

taught in them but they can also have

their grades penalized colleges and

universities recognize the problem of

multiple absences and some even require

that professors reduce the grade of the

student if he or she has too many

unexcused absences

in order to get an excused absence a

student usually has to provide some

proof for instance if he says he has

been sick then a teacher might require a

note from the health center to prove his

illness if they must be away for school

activity then they must have a note from

the school sponsor of the activity

explaining why the student must miss

class therefore even if a student has

done a quality work he or she may still

fail a class if he or she misses more

classes than allowed by school policy

basic patterns

I’m so sorry this has happened to you

I can’t deal with this right now

child

I’d rather be alone

in these cases time to heal is the only

thing that can help

dialogue 1 have you been crying no I

why are you so upset my boyfriend just

broke up with me that’s awful

I feel like my heart is breaking how

long did you date him we dated for six

months I’m so very sorry that you have

to go through this I just can’t

understand why he would do this I

thought he was happy with me did he give

you a reason he said that he stopped

loving me do you believe him

it doesn’t make sense one day he seemed

content and the next day out of the blue

he said he couldn’t be in a relationship

with me when did he break up with you

last night I know that you don’t believe

this now but time heals all wounds I

can’t believe that right now I’ve never

felt this terrible in my entire life

date anyone else for a while

dialogue to

hello Martin what’s new I’m not in the

mood to talk right now

what’s wrong I’m really upset right now

and I think I’d rather be alone are you

sure sometimes it helps to talk to

someone but if you insist I’ll back off

no you’re right it might help to talk it

over tell me what’s on your mind last

night my dog died Oh No I’m very sorry I

miss him so much right now did you have

him long I’ve had him since he was a

puppy

what did he die of old age

how old was he he was 15 years old

that’s very old for a dog you must have

had many good years with him yes do you

think that you will get another dog I

cannot imagine that any dog could

replace him I don’t think I want to get

attached to another animal anyway why

not because it hurts too much when you

lose your pet it’s just like what a

person dies I think you will feel

differently when the grief passes maybe

log3

hi Jordan

Malinda I just heard about your

grandfather I was sad to find out that

he died thank you for your sympathy is

there anything I can do no but thank you

for offering would you like to talk

about him or is it still too painful no

I really like to talk about him it helps

me to remember him and I don’t want to

ever forget him how did he die he had a

heart attack and the doctors just

couldn’t save him how old was he he was

82 years old he must have lived a very

full life yes he was very happy and

active right up until the very end this

must be very hard on you

yes but it is hard to start my

grandmother were they married long they

were married for 55 years

not many couples stay together for so

long they must have loved each other

very much as far back as I can remember

I have always thought that they loved

one another more than any other couple

I’ve known how was your grandmother

holding up

it’s like she’s lost a part of herself

she doesn’t talk much to anyone and just

sits and cries over old pictures of my

grandfather that’s so sad can anyone do

anything for her my entire family has

taken turns trying but she’s

inconsolable I think that she just needs

some time that’s probably true in these

cases time to heal is the only thing

that can help

Americans really love their pets having

pets is a common occurrence in the

United States common pets can include

cats dogs birds hamsters and fish pet

supplies and services cost Americans

millions of dollars a year people become

so attached to their pets that they’re

willing to spend anything in order to

keep them healthy veterinary services

can get quite costly and a growing

industry in America is pet health

insurance this attachment or bond can be

as strong as one between humans

therefore when a pet dies an owner can

feel as much sorrow as when a human

being he or she is close to passes away

this sorrow leads them to treat their

pet just as they would a loved one who

has died some pet owners bury their pets

just like people there are even pet

cemeteries that specialize in burials

for pets complete with funerals and

coffins they can also be cremated if

that is what the owner desires most

people bury their beloved pets in the

backyard or a special place for instance

in my parents backyard lies the remains

of a dozen fish and four hamsters there

were once the pets of my brothers and me

hi Mary hi Daniel are you busy no why

I was wondering if you wanted to go to

the new horror movie which one the one

about the giant insects definitely not

why not it looks really cool

I hate insect they aren’t real doesn’t

matter I can’t stand to look at any kind

of insect but the special effects in the

movie are supposed to be great my friend

said that it looks like the bugs are

going to jump right off the screen at

you that’s not a big selling point for

me awesome the surround sound in the

theater is so good that you can

practically hear the bugs creeping up

behind you stop it what’s wrong I have

to admit I’m terrified of bugs I avoid

even looking at pictures of them but

this is just a movie

I still get too scared well I guess I

shouldn’t pressure you I would

appreciate that why are you so scared of

bugs I’m not sure but as far back as I

can remember I’ve always had this phobia

of them it sounds kind of serious it is

I freaked out every time I see above

especially spiders then you really

wouldn’t like the movie because all the

insects look like spiders except they

are the size of cars well I hope you

enjoy your movie maybe you can find

someone else to go with

log3

how are things going pretty good I’ve

just started a new job what are you

doing I’m a veterinary assistant I help

the veterinarian take care of animals

that sounds like a job you would really

like you’ve always loved all kinds of

animals yes I really like working there

there’s an opening if you’re interested

I could give you a recommendation I

don’t think so

why not it would be fun to work together

the job is great for you

but I don’t think it would suit me are

you sure it would be easy to get you a

job and the pay is decent I’m sure I

really can’t work there you can’t or

don’t want to I can’t I’ll tell you

something that I usually don’t tell

anyone else what is it I’m terrified of

dogs why dogs are very friendly and

lovable when I was six a neighbor’s dog

attacked me ever since I’ve been

frightened of dogs so I could never work

in a veterinarian’s office are you

scared of all kinds of dogs any breed of

dog scares me even the little tiny ones

they can’t possibly scare you even those

dogs are incredibly popular they are

everywhere and it would be difficult to

avoid them completely up until now I’ve

managed have you ever tried to overcome

your fear I once tried going to a

therapist to get over my fear but I

stopped going why did you stop because

it was too hard he wanted me to

constantly look at and touch dogs but

isn’t that the only way to overcome your

fear I just wasn’t ready one day you

will have to face your fear I know but

for now I’ll just keep away from dogs

monologue

phobias are things that people fear

phobias are usually specific and go

beyond just common fears because the

fear of something is only labeled a

phobia if it is extreme

some people’s phobias are so extreme

that they can interfere with their daily

lives phobia is the Greek word meaning

fear often times phobias are given their

Greek names for instance when

debilitating phobia is agoraphobia Agora

refers to the Greek word for marketplace

so agoraphobia is used to describe the

fear of many people some agoraphobics

are so frightened that they cannot leave

their homes this prevents them from

leading a normal life since they cannot

even go to the supermarket much less to

an office to go to work some of the most

common phobias are of such things as

dark places snakes spiders and high

places for those with fears that

interfere with how they live they must

seek help to overcome their fears

psychologists can often help with this

kind of disorder they slowly introduce

to the person what they most fear and

they repeat this process until the

patient no longer feels scared

I can’t believe you just did that

that was disgusting

mom log

in many instances reproach from one’s

peers can be a lot more effective than

from someone in a position of power peer

pressure can be a negative influence

when it sways people to do things that

are inappropriate or harmful to their

health one of the biggest causes for

first-time drug and alcohol use is peer

pressure it can be incredibly difficult

for a young person to stand out from the

crowd and say that they do not want to

do something however this is not always

the case sometimes the desire for our

peers to respect us can make us better

people this is especially so when a

person feels like he has let down his

peers when they were depending upon him

this is particularly the case when

children play a team sport

many parents encourage their children to

play these kinds of sports because they

feel that they can instill a sense of

responsibility and duty to others

jealousy

basic patterns

that girl thinks she is so cute

I wish I could afford a car like this

I have to admit I’m a little jealous

I’m envious of his success

you have no reason to envy me

you jealous of my friend

I wish I could be as fast as Tom

clearly makes bill jealous

jealousy can really hurt a friendship

it doesn’t help to be envious of him

I can already tell that I won’t like him

it sounds like you are jealous

I just don’t like the idea of you

spending so much time with that guy

no matter how much I study I can’t seem

to beat you

I guess my Envy makes me get carried

away

[Music]

dialogue 1

who’s that guy with you oh that’s my new

tutor

I thought your new tutor was going to be

a girl I thought so too but at the last

minute she had to cancel

she was good enough to recommend Peter

to me so his name is Peter yes he’s been

studying French for six years

so he’s going to be able to help me

improve my French a lot how often are

you going to be meeting with him we’re

supposed to meet twice a week isn’t that

a lot I don’t think so I really need

help with my French if I want to study

in France next summer don’t you think

you can find a better tutor no I already

explained to you that he’s very

qualified plus we get along well

how do you know that you get along well

we had a nice conversation he’s a very

nice guy well I don’t like him you don’t

know him you haven’t even spoken to him

I don’t need to I can already tell that

I won’t like him it sounds like you’re

jealous why would you think that I’m

jealous

because Peter is very handsome and we

will be spending lots of time alone

together studying so what if I’m jealous

I just don’t like the idea of you

spending so much time with that guy he

might try to make a move on you you

don’t have to worry he has a girlfriend

that he cares about a lot I still don’t

know if I trust him nevertheless you can

trust me because I would never cheat on

you

dialogue to

what did you get on the test I got a 95

how about you 92

not as high as you maybe next time

you’ll beat me I don’t think so no

matter how much I study I can’t seem to

beat you it’s not that important after

all we both got an an the test and we’ll

get an A for the course as well but it’s

really annoying that you always get a

higher score it’s not a contest that’s

easy for you to say you’re always doing

better than me but you always do well

it’s not fair no matter how hard or long

I study I can never do better than you

we’re friends we shouldn’t be competing

against each other we should be helping

each other you just don’t know how I

feel because you aren’t the one who’s

always getting a lower grade it makes me

uncomfortable when you talk like this I

don’t care I want to get a higher score

than you just once I think you’re taking

this too far I’m sorry I guess my Envy

makes me get carried away I don’t think

this type of competition is good for our

friendship maybe you’re right

I shouldn’t be so jealous of you and

should try to enjoy my own

accomplishments maybe we shouldn’t

discuss our scores with each other

anymore

bell would you come wash the dinner

dishes why do I have to do it because I

said so

but Kara doesn’t have to do the chores -

Kara is five years younger than you you

are the oldest and your mother and I

expect you to help out it’s not fair yes

it is when Kara is older then she will

have chores too I just want things to be

more equal how are things on equal for

example on her birthday she received

more presents than I did she may have

gotten more presents but that’s because

the one birthday present you received

was as expensive as all her gifts

combined your mother and I spent just as

much on you as we did her last week

carrots ruined my favorite book and she

didn’t get punished yes she did

she had to go to her room for the rest

of the day with no television if I did

the same to her I would have been

grounded for a week

that’s because she’s too young to really

understand what she has done when she’s

older she’ll get the same kinds of

punishment as you but it’s not fair now

you get to do a lot of things that Kara

doesn’t get to do because you’re older

like what for instance you can go out

with your friends by yourself when

Kara’s with their friends a parent must

always be watching

that’s not a big deal compared to the

fact that Kara gets anything she wants

because she’s the baby do you really

want to be treated exactly like Kara yes

children should be treated equally then

you should start getting ready for bed

soon

but it’s only 7:30 Kara’s bedtime is

8:00 p.m. and you said you want an equal

treatment that’s not what I meant but

you have to understand that you can’t

just take the good things if you ought

to be treated the same then you have to

take the bad with the good

I see your point

I’ll go do the dishes now

sibling rivalry is a common occurrence

in families America has a history of

wanting everyone to be treated equally

and this has extended to family life

when colonists left England for a new

home in America they wanted some

traditions to change in England legally

only the firstborn son would inherit the

family property America passed a law

that got rid of this law and stated that

all children could inherit from this

ideal and others of equality Americans

usually believed that all children

should be loved and treated in the same

way favoritism by parents can lead to

emotional problems and their children

once they grow up something that is

commonly talked about in America is

middle child syndrome this is when a

child who is neither the oldest nor the

youngest doesn’t feel special the oldest

and youngest are usually seen as

receiving special privileges that middle

children don’t get this can make them

feel very insecure or very sensitive to

the littlest of slights when they become

adults

well and you I’m doing fine thank you

for asking is there something that you

wanted to discuss with me nothing in

particular

I just wanted to let you know how well I

think you are running the office thank

you for the compliment since you’ve

taken over I think that the entire

office is working more efficiently and

effectively that’s nice of you to say

our old manager didn’t do half as good a

job as you well that is one of the

reasons he had to be replaced the

president of the company felt that he

was not working very hard I can tell

that you are a hard worker

I try to be I’ve noticed that you are

always working late into the night

it shows how dedicated you are to making

sure the company succeeds it is good of

you to notice I believe that not enough

people are aware of all that you do

around the office employees like you

that take the time to let me know how

I’m appreciated make up for that is

there anything else you want to talk

about I’ve heard that someone in the

office might be promoted is that true

yes management is looking to advance

someone in the office who deserves it

who will pick the person to get promoted

the president has left the decision up

to me that’s wonderful have you made a

decision yet not yet but I’ll let

everyone know by the end of this week I

hope that you will keep me in mind I

definitely will thank you sir have a

nice afternoon

you look absolutely wonderful thank you

so much you must have taken a long time

to get ready for the prom I spent all

day getting ready that dress is lovely

did it take you a long time to pick it

out it took me ages I wanted to make

sure that it was the perfect dress so I

took my time and didn’t just buy the

first dress I saw I think you chose

wisely

the color suits you this shade of green

is my favorite color I’ve always thought

that green goes well with your shade of

red hair I’ve always been jealous of

your hair it’s so long and curly but

I’ve always liked your hair it’s so

smooth and straight thanks for saying

that did you go to the hairdresser to

fix your hair yes do you like it I do

I think wearing your hair up is very

chic I thought so too

I saw this hairstyle in a magazine on a

movie star I liked it so much that I

took the picture into the hairdresser

and had her copy it I think it turned

out well who did your makeup my older

sister

she did a very good job I think it looks

natural

I’m not overdone like a lot of girls I

see I hate it when girls wear too much

makeup it makes them look like clowns

anyway I hope you have fun at the prom

you too

mom log

flattery is often very nice to hear but

at times it is not welcomed genuine

compliments are always appreciated

genuine compliments are ones that a

person truly means these comments should

be expressed but not too excessively

excessive flattery tends to make

Americans suspicious that the person

giving the compliments is either

insincere or wants something it is

enough to say that someone looks

beautiful just once if you are gushing

or overflowing with praise it tends to

make you appear as if your comments

don’t mean much because you are quite

free with them for instance if you

constantly say everything is lovely and

people might not believe that you feel

that they are especially lovely if that

is a common phrase for you

compliments given to the opposite sex

should also be in moderation if you are

a man and would like to compliment that

your friends date looks very attractive

you can say this once or twice anymore

would probably offend your friend

because it would feel like you were

paying too much attention to his

companion finally compliments should be

given without any expectation of

something in return

numerous admiring comments to an

employer would not be appreciated

because it would look like you were

kissing up to him or her kissing up is

when someone gives false praise to

another in order to get something this

is a quality much detested by Americans

you should be ashamed of yourself

his behavior was shameful

he has disgraced his entire family

she is a disgrace to her country

I feel very ashamed for what I did

apologize for the shame I have brought

on the school

blushed with shame

that man is no shame

he couldn’t hide his embarrassment

his shame was evident to everyone

I lied to my parents and now I feel very

guilty

I feel so ashamed of myself

I can’t believe I fell flat on my face

at the recital

I’m so ashamed and embarrassed

I don’t think I can face my friends and

family

hi Sean

Oh Megan why do you look so upset I did

something that I shouldn’t have done

what did you do I lied to my parents and

now I feel very guilty what did you lie

about I told them I was going to the

library to study but in reality I

actually went to the arcade to play

video games it’s not good to lie to your

parents but that doesn’t sound too bad

you don’t understand what don’t I

understand I shouldn’t have gone to the

arcade because they needed my help what

should you have been helping with my dad

needed my help to fix the roof that’s

why I had to lie they would have

insisted that I help if all I wanted to

do was go to the arcade so instead you

told them that you had to go study yes I

told them I had a big test to study for

so I had to go to the library I swore

that there was no other time for me to

go to the library it was just a little

white lie it was more than that my

father broke his arm while trying to fix

the roof by himself oh my god is he okay

he’ll be fine the cast on his arm should

come off in three weeks but I still feel

horrible you shouldn’t be so hard on

yourself you didn’t know what would

happen I still can’t shake the feeling

that I could have prevented his injury

if I was there I feel so ashamed of

myself you should concentrate on helping

around the house now

your guilt can’t change the past

log2

I can’t believe I fell flat on my face

at the recital it wasn’t that bad yes it

was

I completely forgot the piece I was

playing I didn’t even finish everyone

makes mistakes I should have been better

I’m sure you did the best you could but

I didn’t what do you mean I should have

practiced the piano more but your piano

teacher said that you’ve been practicing

an hour every day that’s more than

enough I know that’s what I told him but

it’s not the truth why did you lie to

him I haven’t been practicing but I

didn’t want to get into trouble so I

lied and said that I practiced every day

what have you been doing instead I’ve

just been fooling around and I guess you

have no one to blame but yourself I know

I’m so ashamed and embarrassed my

grandparents made a special trip here to

see me play the piano did they have to

travel far three hours by train that is

a long way to come they were expecting

to be so proud of me I’m sure that I’ve

let them down I’m certain that it

doesn’t matter to them I don’t think I

can face my friends and family I’m so

humiliated

you can’t hide all night so you might as

well get it over with

log3

what’s up Ted I’m not feeling so hot

what’s wrong

done something that I’m not very proud

of what did you do I stole something I

can’t believe you would do something

like that I know I’m pretty ashamed of

myself what did you steal a comic book

from the book store what came over you I

don’t know I just really wanted the

comic book that is so unlike you this is

not my proudest moment did you get

caught no the manager was busy with

another customer so I got away with it I

think that you should return it and

apologize but I will get into trouble

my parents will be furious I still think

you should the comic book isn’t worth

much the bookstore will probably never

miss it what about your conscience so

I’m feeling a little guilty I’ll get

over it I don’t think you will your

conscience will eat at you until you

finally make amends you’re probably

right if I turn myself in maybe they’ll

go easy on me

mom log

guilt and shame can be very powerful

emotions they prevent people from acting

in socially unacceptable ways

this can especially be seen when people

confess even though they have no chance

of being caught Americans sometimes call

this their conscience kicking in a

conscience is the part of a person’s

mind that can tell the difference

between right and wrong sometimes people

don’t always listen to their conscience

because of other factors like extreme

desire for something one cannot afford

they may be able to get away with their

offense without being caught

however they cannot escape their

conscience once when he was eight years

old he stole some candy from a local

store no one saw him and he got away

with his crime completely however the

values taught to him by his parents

wouldn’t let him eat the candy he felt

so guilty that he took something that

didn’t belong to him that he returned

the candy to the store a week later and

apologized no person made him do this it

was simply his conscience reminding him

of his shame

this poem is awful

going to put myself through that ordeal

no one expects a professional but I

wasn’t even passably good you were fine

I could make a screeching cat sound good

you’re being too dramatic then why was

everyone laughing at me they weren’t all

laughing at you they were laughing

because they were having fun they were

having fun at my expense I think you’re

wrong well I don’t care I’m still never

going to sing in public again the only

important thing is to have fun when

doing karaoke I don’t like the

embarrassment next time I’ll just watch

from the audience but it’s more fun to

going to put myself through that ordeal

dialogue to

how was class today terrible I never

want to go back what happened that was

so bad

the whole class laughed at me I can’t

stand them why did they laugh the

teacher called on me to answer a

question but I didn’t know the answer so

they laughed at you for that

no I didn’t know the answer but the

teacher insisted that I tried to give an

answer so I guessed I ended up giving

the wrong answer

the class was wrong to laugh did their

teacher make them stop yes but after the

class they still made fun of me they all

said it was an easy question and only

someone who was would get it

wrong what was the question she asked me

what is the capital of our state what

did you say

said the capital was Baltimore that’s a

good guess since it is the largest city

in Maryland the class didn’t think it

was a good guess everyone thought I was

stupid because I didn’t know that the

capital of Maryland is Annapolis they

said everyone should know the capital of

their own state well now you know I wish

I knew before now everyone calls me

dummy don’t worry about it now I’ll

forget by the time you go back to school

tomorrow I hope so

dialogue three

are you going to tonight’s volleyball

game no I’ve decided not to play anymore

so go on last week I did something

really dumb and everyone laughed the

people watching the other team and even

my own team went into hysterics oh those

things happen you can’t take it to heart

I do don’t be so sensitive you weren’t

there so you don’t know try to explain

it to me

well I went to make a shot but instead I

hit the ball backwards off the court

that could happen to anyone

but then the ball smashed into a window

in the gym and broke it you must admit

that is kind of funny no it’s not I

turned beet red have a sense of humor I

Americans appreciate those who can let

ridicule slide off their backs the idiom

slide off their back means that it

doesn’t let something affect or bother

them no one likes being made fun of but

people who react very badly to it such

as storming off or crying tend to lose

respect in the eyes of many Americans

according to ideal stereotypes that many

Americans have the but or victim of the

laughter should either pretend not to

care or be able to find the humor in the

situation and fall down laughing with

everyone else

for instance April first is April Fool’s

Day in the u.s. people usually play

funny pranks on others on this day this

is considered to be fun unless the joke

or prank causes harm or is done with

malice people expect the target of the

joke

to be able to laugh at himself or

herself those that cannot are judged to

have a poor sense of humor and an

inability to have fun

unforgettable experiences

the president swimming with dolphins was

unforgettable

I almost drowned when I was a boy

last year I went to the Great Wall

I’ll never forget the day I met my

husband

this is the most memorable day of my

life

you only graduate from college once

Esther is a truly unforgettable person

how can I forget the day my child was

born

I can’t forget how much you have done

for me

the one thing that I will never forget

is swimming with the dolphins

it was an unbelievable experience

I made sure that I took lots of pictures

so I can always remember my trip

I wanted to capture every last detail

I want to be able to share this

memorable experience with everyone I

care about

[Music]

dialogue 1

what did you do over vacation I went to

New Zealand for the holiday Wow

I wish I had gone there you should go

sometime because it’s a lovely country

what is it like the country is made up

of two islands it’s very lush and green

because it rains a lot there what did

you do while you were there I did a lot

of different things

too many to explain what was your

favorite the one thing that I will never

forget is swimming with the dolphins

that sounds really interesting how did

you do it first you have to put on a

wetsuit because the water is rather

chilly then you get into a very large

pool where you can swim with the

dolphins was it expensive a little steep

but worth every penny

is it very dangerous no the dolphins are

very gentle did you know scientists

believe they are smarter than dogs I

wasn’t aware of that you mean that you

can actually swim with them without

anything between you and them nothing

between us at all I even got to touch

the Dolphins what was it like

at first I was only brave enough to pet

them with my hand but then I got braver

and held on to ones fin while it took me

for a swim you actually held on to the

dolphin while it was swimming yeah so we

moved very quickly and gracefully

through the water it was unforgettable I

can’t even imagine how that would feel

you really had to be there

I want to

where did you go on your lunch break I

went to pick up my film may I see your

pictures sure what are they of white

ripped Pompeii ooh when did you go

this past summer did you enjoy it it was

an unbelievable experience tell me about

it Pompeii is an ancient city in Italy

that was buried by volcanic ash when the

local volcano Mountain Vesuvius erupted

why is it so amazing lots of cities have

been destroyed by volcanoes this city is

so amazing because the ash from the

volcano perfectly preserved everything

in the town even the people who died

even the people it has allowed

archeologists to study how the people

live back then they have carefully

uncovered the city for study

it sounds like an important discovery it

is because the people were completely

surprised by the volcano they were

trapped doing everyday things such as

cooking and selling goods in the market

it is not often that archaeologists can

study the lives of the common people why

is that usually nothing survives from

them because only the objects and

writings of the rich and powerful are

studied in preserve this all sounds

fascinating I made sure that I took lots

of pictures so I can always remember my

trip how many rules did you take ten oh

that’s a lot like I said I wanted to

capture every last detail

log3

are you up to anything no why want to

run some errands with me sure what do

you need to do first I need to make sure

to pick up my dry-cleaning why is it so

important because it’s the dress I want

to wear to graduation oh then we need to

make certain we get that done also I

have to go to the mall what do you have

to pick up at the mall I need to buy a

camera don’t you have a camera

no I recently lost it do you think it

will be very expensive yes because I

want to buy a new digital camera not

just a regular 35 millimeter one why

spend so much extra money I want to be

able to send pictures of my graduation

to my entire family why not just mail

them pictures if I mail them photos I

have to go to the extra trouble of

making duplicate copies buying stamps

and addressing envelopes I’m too lazy to

do all that what’s easier with a digital

camera a digital camera will let me just

email photos to all my friends and

family it’s much easier to send emails

than the other way it does sound more

convenient also some of my loved ones

live very far away and postage could be

very expensive

monologue

the dolphin is a favorite animal among

most Americans their intelligence and

charm have captured the hearts of many

people who flocked to zoos and aquariums

that have them places like SeaWorld a

popular Florida attraction that

specializes in marine animals make a

fortune off people’s love of dolphins

their high intelligence can easily be

seen in all the tricks they can learn to

perform scientists even believe that

dolphins have a highly developed system

of communication not yet fully

understood by humans they are seen as

kind and gentle animals because there

are many tales of dolphins saving

sailors lost at sea in spite of these

wonderful characteristics not everyone

appreciates dolphins fishermen are in

direct competition with dolphins for

fish especially tuna every year

dolphins are killed in tuna Nets

nevertheless this animals popularity can

be seen by people who insist on buying

dolphin-safe tuna tuna fish that is

caught without any harm to dolphins and

the growing number of attractions

featuring them especially ones that

allow people to swim with them

fresh grass always reminds me of

childhood summers

I can’t forget the way her hair smelled

that I didn’t think we’d make it to the

hospital on time

I must admit that I was worried that I

might have the baby in the car on the

way we made it in the nick of time even

though it was stressful then it’s good

we can laugh about it now looking back

on it I can see the humor but at the

moment I couldn’t imagine ever finding

it funny but having a baby to bring home

made it all worth it it was really good

of our families to welcome us home when

we brought Cassie home from the hospital

I was so happy to see our loved ones

waiting with balloons and presents for

Cassie I remember that everyone took so

many pictures that day

it was very nice of your mother to put

some of those pictures together in an

album did you save it of course I did

I want Cassie to have a keepsake of her

first day at home I’ve put it in a safe

place until she’s old enough to

appreciate it pictures are nice but I

don’t need any reminders for such a

milestone in our lives yes there are

just some things that people will always

hold dear there have been many other

moments since we become parents that I

will remember just as much and there are

sure to be more to come

dialogue to

I hear that you have an anniversary

coming up that’s right at the end of the

month how long have you been married

five years did you know each other long

before he got married we dated a little

over two years before we got married

how did you do me we met in college I’ll

never forget the day we met I don’t

doubt that it’s a very significant

moment in your life give me some details

I was a junior in college and we had

just begun the new school year when I

ran into him what exactly brought you

together

well I was sitting under a tree reading

a book when a guy came up and asked me

where the library was located and that

guy is now your husband you guessed

right he came up and explained to me

that he was a new transfer student and

he didn’t know his way around the campus

what happened next

I offered to show him where the library

was and he took me to lunch as a way to

say thank you that is such a sweet story

later he confessed to me that he really

did know where the library was but he

just use that as an excuse to introduce

himself to me he said that he saw me

under the tree and just had to meet me

so was love at first sight for him

that’s what he says

you must never get tired of telling that

story because it’s so wonderful I tell

it as often as I get a chance to because

I love it so much

dialogue three

isn’t this a cute picture of a puppy yes

it is he reminds me of my first dog what

was his name

Gus why does this picture remind you of

him

puppy in the photo looks a bit like him

what happened to gas

he died oh I’m very sorry it’s alright

it happened many years ago I’m sure you

have many good memories of him I do we

used to do everything together tell me

some stories about him one of the best

memories I have of him was when I first

got him how did you get him I was 10 and

had been pestering my parents for a dog

for a year

why wouldn’t they get you a dog they

told me I was too young to take care of

a puppy what made them change their

minds maybe because I’d gotten older or

they couldn’t resist how much I wanted a

puppy I’m not sure how did they give him

to you one day I came home from school

my parents said they had a surprise for

me and it was waiting for me in my room

what did you do then I ran up the stairs

to my room and threw open the door what

did you find it was a tiny puppy with a

big red bow around his neck at the foot

of my bed how cute what was he doing

actually nothing he was fast asleep

for the rest of his life he slept on the

exact same spot at the end of my bed

every night that’s a great childhood

memory

monologue

taking pictures is a way to remember

events people places and things is very

common one of the problems with taking

so many pictures is that people tend to

forget the exact details of what is in

the picture in very old pictures there

might not be anyone who remembers why it

was taken or the people event or place

it depicts thus it is best to try to

find a way to record relevant

information that one would want to know

about a picture one way is to write down

a description of the picture a date and

place on the back of each photo another

way is to place the pictures in an

organized album or scrapbook

a very common kind of album that

Americans like to keep is a baby book a

baby book or album records the early

years of a person’s development it is

usually kept by a parent grandparent or

someone else with a very close

relationship to the child

it usually records memorable firsts such

as the first smile first steps first

words and first birthday

it can include pictures and special

mementos like for instance the babies

Hospital ID bracelet

he helped many people in his long career

have you kept in touch with many of your

old classmates

there is one person I’m positive I’ll

recognize

dialogue 1

I’m so excited why are you so excited

tomorrow is my class reunion your class

reunion for what my high school

graduating class have you kept in touch

with many of your old classmates not

really it’s been very difficult to stay

in touch because I’ve moved around a lot

since graduation that’s a shame how long

has it been since you’ve seen these

people since graduation day and when was

that

ten years ago this is my 10-year class

reunion it’s been a long time do you

think you’ll remember everyone no but

there’s one person I’m positive I’ll

recognize who was that

patrícia why her because she was my best

friend and a big part of my high-school

experience we did everything together

what kinds of things did you do together

we did cheerleading field hockey chorus

and lots of other things sounds like you

were close we were just like sisters why

didn’t you stay friends

the distance between us made it too

difficult she went to college in

California and I went to college in New

York

that’s a shame nevertheless she is

someone I’ll never forget I hope she

will be at the reunion because I’m

really looking forward to seeing her

I ought to

what are you doing Jake

organizing my autograph collection I

didn’t know that you were into

collecting autographs I’ve done it since

I was a kid who do you collect

autographs from lots of different kinds

of people almost anyone who is famous

give me some examples

I’ve autographs from movie stars

television personalities sports stars

and politicians which one’s your

favorite my favorite is an autographed

baseball signed by Jackie Robinson who’s

Jackie Robinson I can’t believe that you

don’t know who Jackie Robinson is he’s

famous I’m sorry but I don’t keep up

with sports Jackie Robinson was the

first black man to play professional

baseball but there are lots of black

baseball players now why couldn’t they

play before because people were very

prejudiced and professional baseball

players had to be white Jackie Robinson

was the first man to challenge that

discrimination he must have been very

courageous he was lots of people hated

him and he even got death threats that’s

amazing now people must really admire

him yes that’s why I was so determined

to get his autograph where do you keep

in a locked case to make sure it is safe

this autograph is worth a lot because

he’s such a memorable figure in baseball

and african-american history how could

you afford it I had to save up a lot of

money and also sell off some of my other

autographs but it was worth it because

he’s one of my heroes

dialogue three

would you do me a favor ask away

would you mail a letter for me tomorrow

I’d like to but I can’t why not because

tomorrow is Martin Luther King Junior’s

birthday and all the post offices will

be closed oh I forgot about that I’d be

happy to mail it for you the next day

that’s okay

I’ll be able to do it then Martin Luther

King jr. has always been a hero of mine

me too but I think almost everyone in

the country knows what an important

figure he was yes it took a lot of

courage to be a leader in the civil

rights movement it takes a special kind

of person to stand up for what they

believe in equal rights for everyone

meant a lot to him he was very strong to

stand up against prejudice even though

people threatened both him and his

family did you know that some hateful

people even threatened to kill his

children if he didn’t back down I’ve

heard that I think his greatest

contribution was to advocate peaceful

protests and demonstrations he

maintained that love and respect would

overcome hate and Prejudice he was also

a magnificent speaker everyone said how

powerful his voice was and it could

really move people it was horrible when

he died I can’t believe that someone

could be so full of hate as to shoot him

that was a defining moment in American

history because we lost one of our great

leaders too early I don’t think this

country should ever forget his

contribution his courage won’t be

forgotten that’s why we celebrate his

birthday as a national holiday

[Music]

monologue

Martin Luther King jr. is a very

important figure in American history in

addition to being a minister he was a

major leader of the civil rights

movement

the civil rights movement was an

organized action by african-americans in

the 1950s and 1960s to petition for

equal rights up until that time

legalized discrimination force them to

go to separate schools from whites and

even made them sit in the back of trains

and buses it was even illegal for blacks

to use the same public restrooms and

water fountains as white people the

civil rights movement sought to change

all this and give blacks equal treatment

under the law

King advocated nonviolent means of

protest against injustice such as

peaceful demonstrations like marches and

sit-ins a sit-in was an organized effort

where blacks would sit in restaurants

that refused to serve black people they

wouldn’t damage anything or attack

anyone they would just peacefully remain

in silent protest King was seen as such

a strong leader that those prejudiced

people who wanted to stop the civil

rights movement targeted him

he received numerous death threats

against himself and his family and the

church he preached at was bombed none of

these things deterred him finally in

1968 King paid the ultimate sacrifice to

his cause when a man assassinated him

for all his efforts and wisdom Americans

celebrate his birthday as a national

holiday to remember the man and all that

he stood for

monologue

Americans have many ways of celebrating

good news for major occasions such as

going away to college or a significant

birthday a party is usually called for

significant birthdays include 16th 18th

21st 40th and 100th the sixteenth is

important because it is usually when

teenagers can go and get their drivers

licenses

the 18th birthday is noteworthy because

one officially becomes a legal adult in

most aspects and can vote in political

elections when someone turns 21 they can

legally buy and drink alcohol the 40th

birthday signifies the move into

middle-age and for many it is considered

the beginning of becoming old the 100th

birthday is obvious since it is quite a

feat to reach that age for other kinds

of events such as a promotion or a

reward for doing a good job on an

assignment maybe a dinner or small gift

is needed these events are usually

personal or work-related and aren’t

generally recognized major milestones

embarrassing experiences

basic patterns

I can’t believe I said something that’s

stupid at the party I just spilled my

drink

all over my pants

halfway through my speech I forgot the

rest of what I wanted to say

I didn’t notice the stain until I got to

work

he tripped and fell right in front of

the guests

she came to the party in the same dress

as me

my ex-girlfriend told everyone at the

party about me

he was so sick that he vomited right in

the middle of dinner

I just realized that this shirt isn’t

clean

cold Bob what I said about him that has

to be my most embarrassing moment ever

that shouldn’t be enough to cause you to

quit

that is a little embarrassing

still you shouldn’t stop doing something

you liked just because of one incident

I embarrassed myself the entire evening

[Music]

dialogue 1

hi Mitch

I meant to ask you earlier how your

speech went

I’d rather not talk about it

that bad worse I’m so sorry

do you mind if I asked what happened

it’s too embarrassing

you can tell me I completely forgot my

speech Oh No

what did you do I stood at the podium

for five minutes trying to remember how

it went but I just couldn’t recall it

didn’t you have any notes no I was so

confident about giving the speech that I

didn’t bother with it he knows did you

manage to somehow finish the speech no

after standing in silence for five

minutes

I just ran off the stage what did

everyone else do

they didn’t know how to react so they

just let the next speaker talk how

embarrassing I don’t think I’ll ever get

over it

in time you will I don’t know about that

that has to be my most embarrassing

moment ever you’ll do better next time I

don’t think there will be a next time

dialogue to

hi Ross

hi Caitlin what are you doing here at

the supermarket I’m just getting some

shopping done why do you ask I just

thought you usually had dance practice

at this time I normally do why don’t you

have dance practice today various dance

practice but I decided not to go why not

I’m not doing dance anymore

but I thought you really enjoyed it I

did but not anymore what made you change

your mind nothing must have been

something it’s not something I like to

talk about it’s okay to tell me if you

must know I screwed up at the last dance

recital that should be enough to cause

you to quit trust me it was what was so

bad in the middle of the recital I lost

my balance and fell over that is a

little embarrassing I also knocked over

the girl dancing beside me oh no it was

awful the entire audience burst out into

hysterics I couldn’t believe I could be

so clumsy

still you shouldn’t stop doing something

you like just because of one incident I

might consider going back

hey John I’ve been trying to catch up

with you why I wanted to know how your

date went that is not a topic that I

want to go over but you were so excited

about it what happened to change that

the entire evening was a disaster it

couldn’t have been that bad I assure you

it was I embarrassed myself the entire

evening what went wrong where do I begin

first there was so much traffic that I

was almost half an hour late that

definitely isn’t fashionably late

she was really understanding about that

so I thought the rest of the evening

would be okay it wasn’t no I decided to

take her to a very expensive restaurant

to make up for my being late that should

have been more than enough to make up

for it it would have been if the dinner

had gone well this doesn’t sound good

during dinner I somehow managed to spill

my wine all over her dress I was such a

klutz

couldn’t you have offered to get it

cleaned it was red wine and that doesn’t

come out

I guess the evening was a disaster

I’m not finished yet what else happened

when I went to pay for the meal I

discovered I didn’t have my wallet what

happened to it

I left it at home how did you pay for

the meal

she had to pay for it I offered to pay

her back but I don’t think she believed

that I would do you think she’ll go out

you

monologue

many Americans will say that one of

their greatest fears is public speaking

they fear that they will make a fool of

themselves this fear can lead them to

either completely avoid public speaking

or enduring extreme anxiety when they

are forced into it some people even have

unpleasant dreams about the many

different ways they could embarrass

themselves while giving a speech a

common one is entirely forgetting what

one wants to say this anxiety can cause

physical symptoms that can vary in

intensity from sweaty palms to

full-blown anxiety attacks where a

person cannot breathe

the best way to make sure that you don’t

embarrass yourself while giving a public

address is to prepare have notes to

refer to if you forget a word it is

important not to read directly from them

because I contact with the audience is

vital in order to establish a connection

with them next as the saying goes

practice makes perfect

the more you are familiar with a speech

the more comfortable you are in saying

and remembering the words finally

staying calm is vital to speaking slowly

and clearly the more nervous a person is

the faster he or she usually speaks

独白感觉威胁可以使人们采取

一些极端行动例如在

美国人民对

他们可能成为犯罪受害者的可能性感到如此威胁，

以至于这导致他们想要

拥有枪支反对

使私人公民拥有枪支非法的主要论据之一

是人们应该

有权捍卫自己的

宪法美国

的《权利法案》中确实有关于携带武器的权利的规定

，但

据一些专家称，这指

的是各州拥有

管理良好的民兵

自卫的权利，无论是否有很多争议

无论哪种方式，这项权利都延伸到个人公民

对犯罪的恐惧极大地促成

了许多人的信念，即枪杀我们每个公民的权利，

他们甚至在

面对据统计，一个

人更有可能伤害自己或

他认识的袭击者，

因此不可能禁止枪支，

甚至难以通过枪支管制

立法人们甚至反对

限制一个人

只能购买三支枪的法律一个月

，还要等三天，这样

才能完成背景调查，

以确保犯罪分子和精神

不稳定的人无法获得枪支

[音乐]

担心

基本模式

我担心下周的考试

不要担心我

我是担心你的安全

你开车让我担心

我知道我很傻，但我会

为她担心我的余生

[音乐]

对话 1

金钱问题我希望它们不会太

严重如果我能尽快找到工作那我

就不用担心了我不知道你

失业了我是一名

音乐家我经常没有固定工作我

猜音乐家的生活是我

父母一直在问我什么时候打算

找一份有固定薪水的真正工作如果

薪水如此糟糕你为什么还要继续做音乐家

这是我热爱的工作

我无法想象做其他事情所以

什么如果你没有很快找到工作就会发生

我必须支付下周的房租，我

必须在月底支付汽车费用，这

不仅是需要强调的原因

，而且我还必须支付水电费

去杂货店购物难怪你会

担心等待工作会

伤脑筋你在期待一份我应该听到的工作吗

今天有人有一家酒吧

可能想在周六晚上有一些现场音乐

我希望你也能得到它

如果不是我可能不得不去我的最后

手段哦

如果我这样做我会为我父母借钱然后我会必须

听另一场关于我

应该如何找到一份更稳定的工作的讲座我希望

一切都对你

有用我渴望

进展如何史蒂文太可怕

了怎么了我明天有一个大考试

我相信你会通过飞行颜色

我很幸运能勉强通过，但你

是个好学生我

在历史方面的英语很好，但

我在自然科学方面

真的很糟糕我的生物课

摆脱我的担心

你没有努力学习吗

是的过去一周每天学习几个小时

那么你应该没什么好担心的

这很难我要

学习生物学我似乎无法记住

我需要知道的所有信息 s

只有一个你不明白的考试如果我

在这次考试中没有得到至少一个 C

我不会通过这门课你不能

再上课这应该是我的最后一个

学期我应该毕业但

除非我在这门课程中取得及格成绩否则我不会

哦现在我明白

你为什么这么担心我无法想象

不得不告诉我父母我不会

毕业我真的希望他们

为我感到骄傲我认为你给自己施加了

太大的压力

如果你这么焦虑你永远不会做得很好

呃三

我们真的会想念她房子

看起来很空没有她

孩子应该离开她的父母是很自然的

回家自己走我

知道，但我忍不住

担心她她只是要去上

大学，但这是她第

一次离家住她很聪明

有责任感她会没事的

我仍然担心她

关心孩子的

福利是父母的职责她已经 18 岁你可以不用再

担心她了 b

因为无论她多大，她都是成年人，她

仍然是我的宝贝，你会担心

自己生病了，也许我应该打电话给她，

看看她是否需要她刚刚离开的任何东西，

给她一些时间安顿下来，我希望

她得到足够的吃饭和收拾东西我

希望她保持健康她

知道如果她生病了会这样做

大学里有一个健康中心但他们

不会像我一样照顾她

可以去找她带

她回家我知道我很傻但我会

担心她

一辈子没关系我们总是

担心我们爱的人

[音乐]

nds 满足

如果它

不支付账单

，你为什么要继续当音乐家如果它无法支付你的费用，你为什么要继续当音乐家？

等待工作让我很

紧张

这种等待工作让我

丧命 5

如果不是我可能不得不采取最后的

手段

如果不是我可能不得不去做

我最不想做的事情

如果不是我可能会去做我

试图避免的事情

如果不是我可能不得不去我最不

喜欢的选项

六

我很幸运能勉强通过

七

这是我生物

课的期末考试这是我化学

课的期末考试这是我物理

课的期末考试如果我没有达到八级解剖课的期末考试

至少在这次

考试中看到我不会通过课程

如果我在这次

考试中至少没有看到我会成功

如果我在这次考试中没有获得至少 C 的课程，

那么我将不会获得该课程的学分

如果我在这次考试中没有获得至少 C 的成绩

，我将无法通过 9 级

你

不能再上这门课你能不能重复这门课

你能不能下个学期再试一次你能不能再试一次

十

我认为你给自己施加了太大的

压力

我认为你制造了太多的

焦虑

我认为你让情况

变得更糟

我认为你对自己太苛刻了

十一没有她，房子会显得如此空荡没有

她，房子会不一样

没有她，房子会很寂寞

房子会很安静没有她

但这是她第一次

离家生活

但这是她第一次

独自生活

但这是她第一次

独立生活

但这是她第一次

独自生活

十三

你可以停止担心她，因为

她是一个成年人，

你可以停止担心她因为

她都长大了

你可以不用担心她因为

她是女人而不是孩子

你可以不用担心她因为

她是个大女孩

不管她多大了她仍然

是我的

宝贝不管怎样她长大了

她仍然是我的宝贝

我不在乎她几岁她

仍然是我的宝贝

不管她多大了

她仍然是我的宝贝

十五岁

你会担心自己生病了

会让自己担心得要死

你会因为

担心而发疯让自己

发疯即使

是中上阶层相对富裕的人也有财务

问题普通家庭最大的金钱成本之一

是住房，除非

一对夫妇独立富裕，否则他们

要么不得不租房住，

要么抵押贷款买房一个

银行给个人买房的唯一抵押贷款

这是

比大多数家庭承担的最重要的债务之一

第二个最昂贵的

家庭物品是许多

家庭的汽车两辆车是必需的美国

没有高效的系统

几个大城市以外的公共交通

因此如果父母双方都工作并且他们

都需要汽车通勤如果只有一个

工作那么另一个需要汽车

来处理日常家务

因此每月的汽车付款被添加

到家庭的预算中负债累累的最简单

和最快的方法之一

是信用卡信用卡很

容易获得并进行广泛的营销它

允许一个人每月收取他或

她的支出水平如果他们

必须每月支付他们

收取的费用他们收取的费用超过了

他们在一个月内所能支付的费用任何还

欠的东西都会增加利息人们

遇到麻烦他们有很多

信用卡并且喜欢花更多的钱

他们最终使如果一对夫妇有

孩子，那么他们还必须考虑

如何支付大学教育费用

为了过上体面的生活，大学教育变得越来越必要，

因此大学入学率

最高所有这些费用可以

产生很多压力和

导致离婚的主要原因之一是

争论金钱

[音乐]

欺骗

基本模式

你欺骗了我

我在这笔交易中被欺骗了

他的话很有欺骗性

你允许自己被

欺骗不要被他的欺骗友好的言辞

他完全被他的敌人愚弄了

不要让外表欺骗你

你不能轻易欺骗我

他的钱被骗了

我不敢相信我是这样一个傻瓜

如果我能联系我的父母她会联系我的

父母没有找到一个好的借口

这只是一个善意的谎言所以这没什么大不了

我的良心会沉重地压在我身上

我必须编造一些事情所以我不会

惹上

麻烦你确定你必须是

不诚实的

[音乐]

对话

1 你感觉好点了吗我感觉很好

我没有生病但是我们的老师说你因为不舒服而

缺课

她会原谅我的缺席，你是说

你没有生病吗？不，我很健康，

你为什么要撒谎？我不想让

她告诉我父母我不在

父母，如果我找不到

一个好的借口，你为什么要对

你的父母和你的老师撒谎我真的

很想去看电影，她为什么不

答案怀疑一件事，因为

没有文件或其他证据

证明我们有罪我不知道这件事

发生了什么 o 你必须输我们

可能会因作弊而考试不及格并被停职

我告诉过你我们不会被

抓到

我只是认为作弊是错误的我的

良心会沉重地压在我身上

醒得很晚你为什么不

说实话因为实话听起来很

不负责任为什么你睡得这么

晚

我参加了一个聚会，结果

比我计划的晚了

因为汽车问题迟到了

比说我睡过头更专业，因为我

前一天晚上聚会太多了这

听起来不太负责任

今天早上你错过了什么吗我错过了一个

非常重要的会议，所以我不能

告诉老板他会

当场解雇我的真相你为什么认为他

会如此严厉因为他不得不

取消会议因为我

缺席你确定你必须

[音乐]

你

独白

逃课

在美国大学里很常见大学

往往是年轻人第一次有

机会在没有监督的情况下独立生活这种第一次独自生活的

兴奋和新奇

往往会导致一些不负责任

没有父母

唠叨他们应该去学校的行为有些

学生养成

了上课睡觉而不是

按时醒来去他们的坏习惯，他们不仅

错过了他们所教的信息，

而且他们还可以

他们的成绩受到惩罚

大学认识到

多次缺勤的问题，有些甚至

要求教授降低学生的成绩

如果他说

他生病了，那么老师可能会要求

健康中心出具一张纸条来证明他的

病情，如果他们必须如果不能参加学校

活动，那么他们必须从活动的学校赞助商那里得到一份说明，

解释为什么学生必须缺课，

因此即使学生

完成了高质量的工作，

如果他或她缺课更多，他或她仍然可能不及格

超出学校规定的课程

愿意花任何钱来

保持他们的健康兽医服务

可能会变得非常昂贵，而美国一个不断发展的

行业是宠物健康

保险，这种依附或纽带可能会非常重要

ng 作为人类之间的一个人，

因此，当宠物死亡时，主人会

感到悲伤，就像

他或她亲近的人去世时一样，

这种悲伤使他们对待自己的

宠物，就像对待

已死的亲人一样主人像人一样埋葬他们的

宠物甚至

有专门为宠物埋葬的宠物墓地，

配有葬礼和

棺材

如果主人希望大多数

人将心爱的宠物埋在

后院或特殊的地方，也可以火化

在我父母的后院里

有十几条鱼和四只仓鼠

狗非常受欢迎，它们

无处不在，很难

完全避免它们直到现在我已经

成功了你有没有试过克服

独白

恐惧症是人们害怕恐惧症的事情

通常是具体的，

超越普通的恐惧，因为

对某事的恐惧只有在极端情况下才会被标记为

恐惧症

有些人的恐惧症非常极端

，以至于他们会干扰他们的

日常生活恐惧症是希腊词，意思是

恐惧，通常是恐惧症。 r

希腊名字，例如当

使人衰弱的恐惧症是广场恐惧症时，Agora

指的是希腊语中的市场，

所以广场恐惧症被用来描述

许多人的恐惧，一些广场恐惧症

患者非常害怕，以至于他们不能离开

自己的家，这阻止了他们

过正常的生活，因为他们

甚至不能去超市更不用说

去办公室上班一些最

常见的恐惧症是

黑暗的地方蛇蜘蛛和

高处对于那些害怕

干扰他们生活的人来说，他们必须

寻求帮助来克服他们的恐惧恐惧

心理医生通常可以帮助治疗

这种疾病，他们慢慢地向患者介绍

他们最害怕的事情，

然后重复这个过程，直到

患者不再感到害怕

妈妈

在很多情况下都会受到

同行的责备 s 可能比

处于权力地位的人更有效同辈

压力可能会产生负面影响，

因为它会影响人们做

不恰当或有害

健康的事情这是

首次吸毒和酗酒的最大原因之一是同侪

压力

一个年轻人很难

从人群中脱颖而出并说他们不想

做某事，但情况并非

总是如此，有时我们的

同龄人尊重我们的愿望可以让我们成为更好的

人尤其是当一个

人觉得自己让

依赖他的同龄人失望时，

尤其是当

孩子们参加团队运动时，

许多父母鼓励他们的孩子

参加这类运动，因为他们

觉得他们可以灌输一个

对他人的责任感和责任感

嫉妒

女生觉得自己好可爱的基本模式

我希望我能买得起这样的车

不得不承认我有点嫉妒

我嫉妒他的成功

你没有理由嫉妒我

你嫉妒我的朋友

我希望我能像汤姆一样快

显然让比尔嫉妒

嫉妒真的会伤害友谊

嫉妒他无济于事

我可以已经告诉我不会喜欢他

听起来你很

嫉妒让我神魂颠倒

[音乐]

对话 1

和你在一起的那个人是谁哦那是我的新

导师

我以为你的新导师会是

个

女孩彼得

对我来说，所以他的名字是彼得，是的，他已经

学习法语六年了，

所以他将能够帮助我

提高我的法语很多

你要和他见面的频率我们

应该每周见面两次是

我不这么认为，所以

如果我想在 F 学习，我真的需要法语方面的帮助

明年夏天跑，你不觉得

你能找到一个更好的导师吗？不，我已经

向你解释过他非常

有资格，而且我们相处得很好

，你怎么知道你们相处得很好，

我们聊得很愉快，他是一个

很好的人，我不喜欢他你不

认识他你甚至没有和他说过话

我不需要我已经可以说

我不会喜欢他听起来你很

嫉妒你为什么会认为我我

嫉妒，

因为彼得很帅，我们

会花很多时间单独

在一起学习，所以如果我嫉妒

我只是不喜欢你

花这么多时间和那个人在一起，他

可能会试图继续前进你

不用担心他有

一个他很在乎的女朋友我仍然不

知道我是否相信他但是你可以

相信我因为我永远不会欺骗

你

对话

你在考试中得到了什么我得到了 95

你怎么样 92

没有你那么高下次你可能

会打败我我不这么认为

不管我有多少 udy，我似乎无法

击败你，

毕竟我们都获得了考试，而且我们

的课程也会获得 A，

但这并不重要

你很容易说你总是

比我做得好但你总是做得好

这不公平无论我学习多努力或多长时间

我都不会比你做得更好

我们是朋友我们不应该

互相竞争我们应该

互相帮助你只是不知道我的

感受因为你不是那个

总是得分低的人

当你这样说话时让我感到不舒服我

不在乎我想得到比你更高的分数

只是有一次我觉得

你走得太远了对不起我猜我的嫉妒

让我得意忘形我不认为

这种竞争对我们的

友谊有好处也许你是对的

我不应该那么嫉妒你们，

应该试着享受我自己的

成就也许我们不应该

互相讨论我们的分数 r

对话三

铃你会来洗晚

饭碗为什么我必须这样做因为我

说过

但卡拉不必做家务 -

卡拉比你小五岁你

是最年长的你妈妈和我

指望你帮忙这不公平是的

，当卡拉长大后，她也会

做家务我只是希望

事情更加平等，

例如在她生日那天，她收到

的礼物比我收到的多，她可能

已经收到了更多的礼物，但那是因为

你收到的一份生日

礼物和她所有的礼物一样贵

如果我对她做同样的事情，她必须在没有电视的情况下去她的房间，如果我

对她做同样的事情，我会

被禁足一个星期

，那是因为她太年轻了，无法真正

理解她在长大后做了什么，

她会得到同种的

像你一样受到惩罚，但现在

你可以做很多卡拉

不能做的事情，因为你年纪大

了，比如你可以

自己和朋友出去

一直在看

，与卡拉得到她想要的任何东西相比，这没什么大不了的

，

因为她是婴儿，你真的

想要像卡拉一样受到对待吗？是的，

孩子应该得到平等对待，然后

你应该尽快开始准备睡觉，

但这只是 7:30 卡拉的就寝时间是

晚上 8:00 你说你想要一个平等的

待遇，这不是我的意思，但

你必须明白，

如果你应该得到同样的待遇，你不能只接受好的东西，

那么你必须

接受坏的和好的，

我明白你的意思

我现在去洗碗

[音乐]

替换

一个

和你在一起的那个人和你在一起的

那个人告诉我那个人

你为什么和他在一起

她很好地向我推荐了彼得她很友好

地推荐了彼得

对我来说，

她被认为足以

向我

推荐彼得她足够周到，可以

向我推荐彼得

三

我们进行了愉快的交谈

我们进行了愉快的讨论

我们进行了愉快的交谈

听起来你很嫉妒

听起来就像你被

绿眼睛的怪物咬

了听起来你很羡慕

听起来你很嫉妒嫉妒

因为彼得很英俊，

会花很多时间独自一起

学习

因为彼得很迷人，我们

会花很多时间一个人

一起学习，

因为彼得很诙谐，会

花很多时间一个人一起

学习，

因为彼得很有吸引力，

会花很多时间一个人

一起学习

六

，不比你

低，

不比好成绩

我没有

七分好，

但你总是得到更高的分数真的很烦人，

但我真的很担心你总是

得到更高的分数，

但我真的很困扰你总是

得到更高的分数，

这是我的紧张你总是得到

更高的分数

8 你很容易说

你不必担心

你的鼻子没有皮肤

你的问题

我猜我的嫉妒让我得意忘形

我猜我的嫉妒让我走得太远

我猜我的嫉妒让我过火了

我猜我的嫉妒让我走得太远了

十

我不应该那么嫉妒你，

应该努力享受我自己的

成就

我不应该那么嫉妒你，

应该努力晒在我自己的荣耀中，

我不应该那么嫉妒你，

应该努力珍惜我所拥有的

我不应该那么嫉妒你，

应该努力为自己的成就感到高兴

十一

卡拉比你小五岁

比卡拉大五岁，你更成熟卡拉比你小五岁

她可能收到了更多的礼物，

但那是因为

你收到的一份生日礼物和她所有礼物的总和一样贵，

她可能收到了更多的礼物，

但那是因为

你收到的生日礼物和她所有的礼物加起来一样贵，

可能会得到更多的礼物，但那是

因为你收到的一份生日礼物

和她所有的礼物加起来一样贵，

她可能会得到更多的礼物，

但那是因为你收到的一份生日

礼物收到的礼物和她上周拿走的所有礼物一样贵，

卡拉在我最喜欢的书中画了 13

上周她没有受到惩罚

卡拉弄坏了我最喜欢的洋娃娃

，她上周没有受到惩罚

卡拉弄脏了我最喜欢的衣服

，她没有受到惩罚

例如，你可以和你的朋友一起出去

例如，您可以在没有监护人的情况下与您的朋友外出例如您可以在

没有监护人

的情况下与您的朋友外出例如您可以在

没有成人的情况下与您的朋友外出

十五岁

通常认为所有的孩子

都应该受到同样的爱和

对待父母的偏爱会导致

情绪问题，他们的孩子

长时间我想

我花时间，不只是买

我看到的第一件

衣服我一直很吃醋

你的头发又长又卷，但

我一直很喜欢你的头发，它又

顺又直，谢谢

你说你去理发店

修头发了吗是的，你喜欢吗？

我觉得把头发梳起来是很

别致我也这么觉得

又亮又整齐

十五

我认为结果很好

我认为她做得很好

我认为她完美地复制了它

我认为它看起来很准确就像

图片一样

[音乐]

妈妈记录

奉承通常很好听，

但有时不受欢迎

让

美国人怀疑

给予赞美的人要么是

不真诚的，要么是想要

什么如果你滔滔不绝地

赞美某人

就

足够了你

对他们很自由，例如，如果你

经常说一切都很可爱，而且

人们可能不相信你

觉得他们特别可爱，如果这

是你的常用短语，

对异性的赞美

也应该适度

一个男人，想称赞

你的朋友约会看起来很有吸引力，

你可以再说一两次这样的

话会亲很可能冒犯你的朋友，

因为这会让你觉得你

对他的同伴太关注了。

最后应该给予赞美，

而不是期望得到任何

回报他或她亲吻是

当某人为了得到某些东西而对另一个人给予虚假的赞美时，

这

是美国人非常讨厌的品质

[音乐]

学校带来的

耻辱

羞愧现在我感到非常

内疚

我做到了我觉得我不能面对我的朋友和

家人

发誓没有其他时间了对我来说

去图书馆只是一个善意的

谎言，而不仅仅是我

父亲摔断了他的手臂在试图

自己修屋顶时，天哪，他没事，

他会没事的，他手臂上的石膏应该

会在三周后脱落，但我仍然觉得很

可怕，你不应该对自己这么苛刻，

你不知道是什么会

发生我仍然无法摆脱

如果我在那里我可以避免他受伤的感觉我为自己感到羞耻

你应该集中精力

帮助家里现在

你的内疚无法改变过去

抓到了吗没有经理正忙于

另一个客户所以我侥幸逃脱我

道歉但我会惹上麻烦

我父母会生气我仍然认为

如果漫画书不值得

很多书店可能永远不会

错过它你的良心怎么样所以

我感到有点内疚我会

克服它我不认为你会

在你最终弥补之前你的良心会吃掉

妈妈 log

内疚和羞耻感可能是非常强烈的

情绪，它们阻止人们

以社会不可接受的方式行事，

尤其是当人们

承认时，即使他们没有

机会成为抓住美国人有时称

这是他们的良心在良心上踢

是一个人的

头脑中可以

分辨对与错的部分有时人们

并不总是听从他们的良心，

因为其他因素，比如

对他们买不起的东西的极度渴望

可能能够逃脱他们的

罪行而不会被抓住，

但是他们无法逃脱他们的

良心，当他八岁时，

他从当地一家商店偷了一些糖果，

没有人看到他，他

完全逃脱了他的罪行，但是

教给他的价值观他

父母不让他吃糖果，他

感到内疚，以至于他拿走了

不属于他的东西，然后他回来了

一周后把糖果送到商店并

道歉没有人让他这样做

只是他的良心提醒

他他的耻辱

[音乐]

嘲笑

他总是犯错误的基本模式

她总是穿得那么糟糕

你真是个白痴你是

什么他说的是荒谬的

他的论点是胡说八道

他是一个糟糕的演员

这是我听过的最愚蠢的事情

他是这里最糟糕的工人

这首诗太糟糕了

你的音乐伤害了我的耳朵

那么为什么每个人都在嘲笑我

他们玩得很开心

我不喜欢这种尴尬

，那太糟糕了，因为上周我再也

不会让自己经历那种磨难

了

糟糕没

那么糟糕

甚至都不够好你很好

我可以让一只尖叫的猫听起来不错

你太戏剧化那为什么

每个人都在笑我他们不是都

在笑你他们在笑

是因为他们很开心他们

很开心以我为代价我认为你

错了我不在乎我永远

不会再在公共场合唱歌唯一

重要的是

在卡拉OK时玩得开心我不喜欢

下次的尴尬我只是

观众观看，但参与更有趣

你会错过

那太糟糕了，因为我再也

不会让自己经历那种磨难

了我想你会后悔

今天的课堂有多糟糕的对话我从来没有

想回去发生的事情

太糟糕

了全班都笑我我

受不了他们为什么笑

老师叫我回答一个

问题但我不知道答案所以

他们笑你

不，我不知道答案，但

老师坚持在我试图给出一个

答案所以我猜我最终给出

了错误的

答案全班都笑错了他们的

老师是否让他们停下来是的但是

下课后他们仍然取笑我他们

都说这是一个简单的问题而且只有

智障的人会

弄错什么问题她问我

什么是我们州的首府

你说什么

说首府是巴尔的摩这是一个

很好的猜测因为它是

马里兰州最大的城市班上不这么认为

是一个很好的猜测每个人都认为我很

愚蠢因为我不知道

马里兰州的首府是安纳波利斯他们

说每个人都应该知道

他们自己州的首府现在你知道我希望

我之前知道现在每个人都称我为

傻瓜不要现在担心它我会

忘记你明天回学校的时候

我希望所以

对话

三你今晚的排球

比赛不我已经决定不再打

为什么不我宁愿不说来吧我’ 我

你最好的朋友还好但是o 只是因为

我们是最好的朋友

所以上周继续我做了一些

非常愚蠢的事情每个人都笑了

人们看着另一支球队甚至

我自己的球队都歇斯底里哦那些

事情发生了你不能把它

放在心上我确实没有不要那么敏感，你不在

那里，所以你不知道试着

向我解释清楚

健身房的窗户把它弄坏了你必须承认

这有点好笑不不是我

变红了有幽默感我

不认为我能克服它

克服你的

尴尬的第一步是再来玩我会

考虑的

[音乐]

你们

站

大家都在嘲笑我

大家都在取笑我

大家都在嘲笑我

人们可以是愚蠢的

人可以是麻木不仁的

人可以是粗心的人可以是不体谅

我的三个我可以做一只尖叫的猫

我永远不会再在人们面前唱歌

我永远不会再为人群唱歌

五

你会错过

你不会在生活中获得乐趣

你不会过这样的生活

尽你

所能

我永远不想回去

我不能在那里露面

我不能再次面对那些人

不我不知道答案，但

老师坚持我试图给出

答案，所以我猜

不，我不知道答案，但

老师坚持要我尝试给出

答案，所以我对答案进行了长时间

的尝试，但老师坚持要

我尝试给出答案，所以我胡乱

猜测

不我不知道答案但

老师坚持要我试试为了给出

答案，所以我尝试了

八次，

他们都说这是一个简单的问题

，只有智障的

人才会答错

这是一个简单的问题

，只有愚蠢的人才

会做错

他们都说这是一个简单的问题

，只有白痴

才会做错

明天你回学校的时候他们都会忘记

他们

明天你回学校的时候他们都会去做别的事情明天你回学校的时候

他们都不会记得发生了什么等

你去的时候

他们都会嘲笑

别人的错误

明天回学校

十点

我宁愿不说

我不想讨论

这不值得讨论

[音乐]

妈妈日志

美国人欣赏那些能让

嘲笑从背后溜走的人成语

slide off their back的意思是th 它

不会让某些事情影响或打扰

他们，没有人喜欢被取笑，但是

根据许多美国人的理想刻板印象，对它反应非常糟糕的人（例如暴走或哭泣）往往会在许多

美国人眼中失去尊重笑声的但或受害者

应该假装

不在乎，或者能够在这种情况下找到幽默

并与

其他人

一起大笑，例如四月一号是美国的

愚人节人们通常

在这一天对其他人进行有趣的恶作剧这

被认为很有趣，除非笑话

或恶作剧造成伤害或

出于恶意人们期望

笑话

的目标能够

自嘲那些不能被判断为

幽默感

很差，没有乐趣

[音乐]

你

难忘的经历

总统和海豚游泳的基本模式

难忘去年

我小时候差点淹死

我去了长城

我永远不会忘记那一天我遇见了我的

丈夫

这是我一生中最难忘的一天

你只有大学毕业

Esther 是一个真正令人难忘的人

我怎么能忘记我孩子出生的那一天

我不能忘记你为我做了多少

一件事我永远不会忘记的

是和海豚一起游泳

这是一次难以置信的经历

我确保我拍了很多照片

所以我永远记得我的旅行

我想捕捉每一个

我想成为的细节 le 与大家分享这个

难忘的经历我

关心

[音乐]

对话 1

你在假期里做了什么我去

新西兰度假哇

我希望我去过那里你应该找个时间去，

因为这是一个可爱的国家

它是什么样的这个国家

由两个岛屿组成它非常郁郁葱葱

因为那里经常下雨

你在那儿做了什么我做了

很多不同的事情

太多以至于无法解释你

最喜欢什么我永远不会忘记的一件事

和海豚一起游泳

听起来很有趣你是

怎么做的首先你必须穿上

潜水衣因为水

很冷然后你进入一个非常大的

游泳池你可以和

海豚一起游泳是不是有点贵但是有点陡峭

但是值得每一分钱

是不是很危险没有海豚

很温柔你知道吗科学家们

相信它们比狗更

聪明你和它们

我们之间什么都没有我什至可以

触摸海豚

起初我只是勇敢地用手抚摸

它们，但后来我变得更勇敢了，在我花了很长时间的

时候抓住了它们的鳍

游泳时你真的抓住了

海豚，是的，所以我们在水中

快速而优雅地移动，

这令人难忘我

什至无法想象那会是什么感觉

你真的必须在那里

我想

你去哪里你的午休时间我

去拿我的电影我可以看看你的

照片确定它们是什么白色

撕裂的庞贝古城哦，你去年夏天什么时候去的，

你喜欢它吗这是

一次难以置信的经历告诉

我庞贝古城是一座古老的城市意大利

维苏威火山爆发时被火山灰掩埋

为什么如此神奇很多城市都

被火山摧毁这座城市

如此神奇，因为

火山灰完美地保存

了镇上的一切，甚至

甚至死去的人它允许

考古学家研究人们的

生活方式然后他们仔细地

发现了这座城市进行研究

这听起来是一个重要的发现这

是因为人们

对火山感到非常惊讶他们

被困在做一些日常的事情作为

在市场上烹饪和销售商品

，考古学家很少能

研究平民的生活，为什么

通常没有任何东西可以从他们身上幸存下来，

因为只有

富人和有权势的人的物品和著作才被

研究以保护这一切听起来很

迷人我确保我拍了

很多照片，这样我就可以永远记住我的

旅行，你采取了多少规则 10 哦

，这很像我说的我想

捕捉每一个最后的细节

log3 你在做什么不为什么要

跑腿

我知道你首先

需要做什么

哦，那么我们需要

确保我们完成了那件事我

必须去商场你要在商场取什么

我需要买

相机你有没有相机

没有我最近丢了你觉得

会很贵是的因为我

想买一台新的数码相机而

不仅仅是普通的 35 毫米相机为什么要

花这么多额外的钱我希望

能够将我的毕业照片发送

给我的全家人为什么不直接

给他们邮寄照片如果我给他们邮寄照片，我

就不得不费心

制作副本，购买邮票

和给信封写地址

和

家人发送电子邮件

比其他方式更容易它听起来更

方便而且我的一些亲人

住在很远的地方而且邮资可能

非常昂贵

我想数码相机是再见

我希望能够分享这个

难忘的 EV经验所有人我

关心

[音乐]

你们的

电台

我希望我去过那里

我一直想去那里

它在我的旅游景点清单上

我真的很想看看

你在那里时

做了什么活动做了什么你做

你花你的时间你是

如何度过时间的

三

我不知道我不知道

这对我来说是新闻

我第一次听说那是

因为

我什至无法想象那会是什么感觉

我什至无法把自己放在你的位置上

我什至无法考虑做你所做的同样的

事情

我什至无法想象自己在做那

五个

你真的必须在那里

你必须亲自体验

你必须这样做第一手

理解

语言无法表达的感觉

六

为什么它如此神奇

为什么它如此独特

为什么它如此非凡

为什么它如此特别

七

这座城市如此神奇因为

火山的灰烬完美地保存

了镇上的

一切这座城市如此神奇，因为

火山灰拯救了一切在

镇上，

这座城市如此神奇，因为火山的灰烬

使镇上的一切都完好无损，

这座城市如此神奇，因为

火山灰阻止

了镇上一切的恶化

八

它使考古学家能够研究

人们如何生活然后

它允许考古学家研究

那个时期的人们是如何生活的

它允许考古学家研究

那个时代的人们是如何生活的

它允许考古学家研究

很久以前的人们是如何生活的

这听起来像是一个重要的发现

历史性发现

这听起来像一个里程碑式的发现

这听起来像一个突破性的

发现

十

我想捕捉每一个细节

我不想忘记任何事情

我想记住每一刻

我想记录一切

十一

哦，那么我们需要确定我们

完成它

哦，那么我们需要确保我们将

它从我们的列表中划掉

哦，那么我们需要确保我们

完成了那个任务 k

哦，那么我们需要确保我们将

其作为重中之重

你必须在商场挑选

什么你必须在商场买

什么你必须在商场找到

什么你必须拿到什么

在商场

不，我最近丢了

不，它最近消失了

不，

找不到了

十五

我希望能够

与我关心的每个人分享这个难忘的经历

我希望能够

与我关心的每个人分享这个里程碑式的时刻

我希望能够

与我关心的每个人分享我生命中的这个里程碑

能够

与我关心的每个人分享这一重大事件

[音乐]

你的

独白海豚是大多数美国人最喜欢的动物

他们的智慧和

魅力俘获了许多

涌向动物园和水族馆的人的心

有他们像海洋世界这样的地方

佛罗里达州一个受欢迎的景点，

专门研究海洋动物

从人们对海豚的喜爱中发财

他们的高智商很容易

从他们可以学习的所有技巧中看出

科学家甚至相信

海豚具有高度发达

的交流系统人类尚未完全

理解它们被视为

善良温和的动物，因为

有许多关于海豚拯救

在海上迷失的水手的故事，尽管这些

美妙的特征并不是每个人都

欣赏海豚渔民每年都

与海豚直接竞争

鱼特别是金枪鱼

海豚在金枪鱼网中被杀死，

然而这种动物的受欢迎程度

可以被那些坚持购买对

海豚安全的金枪鱼金枪鱼的人们所看到，这种金枪鱼是

在对海豚没有任何伤害的情况下捕获的，

并且越来越多的景点

以它们为特色，尤其是

允许人们与它们一起游泳的景点

甜蜜的回忆

基本模式

你还记得吗

我们农场里曾经闻到花香

我小时候喜欢坐在那棵橡树

下我最美好的回忆来自

大学

照片带回一些美好的回忆

新鲜的草总是让我想起

童年的夏天

我爱夏天的纽约

我无法忘记她头发的味道

让我想起了我的第一只狗

自从我们成为父母以来，还有许多其他的时刻

，我会

记得

同样重要的时刻

快 5

岁了好像

昨天我们把她从医院带回家了

你还记得她出生的那个晚上吗

我怎么能忘记

那天晚上我们如此紧张的人我们有

充分的理由有这么多粘液交通拥堵

，我认为我们不能

准时到达医院

我必须承认，我担心我

可能会在我们赶到的路上把孩子放在车里，

尽管压力很大那很好，

我们可以嘲笑它现在

回想起来我可以看到幽默但

此刻我无法想象曾经觉得

它很有趣但是有一个孩子带回家

让这一切都值得这

对我们的家人来说真的很好当

我们把 Cassie 从医院带回家时欢迎我们回家

我很高兴看到我们的亲人

拿着气球和礼物等着

Cassie 我记得那天每个人都拍了

很多照片，

你妈妈很好地放了

一些一起放在

相册里的照片你存了吗当然存了

需要任何提醒

我们生活中的这样一个里程碑是的

只是人们永远珍视的一些事情

会记得同样多，而且

肯定会有更多的

聚

在一起我坐在下面一棵树在看书，

当一个人走过来问我

图书馆在哪里，那

个人现在是你的丈夫，你猜

对了，他上来向我解释

说他是一个新的转学生，

他不知道自己的路校园周边

接下来发生的事情

我主动向他展示图书馆

在哪里，他带我去吃午饭，以

表示感谢，这是一个如此甜蜜的故事

后来他向我坦白说他

确实知道图书馆在哪里，但他

只是用那个作为向我介绍自己的借口，

他说他

在树下看到了我，只是不得不见我，

所以对他一见钟情，

这就是他所说的，

你永远不要厌倦讲述这个

故事，因为我讲的太棒了

我经常有机会因为

我非常喜欢它

对话三

一些关于他的故事我对他最美好的

回忆之一是我第一次

得到他你是怎么得到他的我 10 岁

一直纠缠着我父母要

狗一年

他们为什么不给你一条狗他们

告诉我我太小不能

照顾小狗是什么让他们改变了他们的

想法可能是因为我变老了，或者

他们无法抗拒我多么想要一只

小狗我不知道有一天他们是怎么把他

给你的我放学回家

我的父母说他们给了我一个惊喜

它在我的房间里等我

你做了什么然后我跑上楼梯

到我的房间打开门

你发现它是一只小狗，

脖子上挂着一个大红色蝴蝶结在

我的床脚下如何可爱他在做什么

实际上什么也没做

他余生都在酣睡他每天晚上都睡

在我床尾的同一个地方

那是美好的童年

记忆

[音乐]

当然是替代品之一我怎么能忘记

当然是在我的记忆

中燃烧当然这是一次难忘的

经历当然无法抹去我想

我们在紧要关头

就做到了我们几乎没有做到我们没有留出任何时间

这是一个近距离的电话

独白

拍照是一种记住事件的方式

人们地点和事物很

常见拍摄

这么多照片的问题之一是人们

在非常老的照片中，往往

会

忘记照片中的确切

细节想

知道一张照片的一种方法是在每张照片的背面写下

照片的描述日期和

地点另一种

方法是将照片放在

有组织的相册或

剪贴簿中美国人很常见的一种相册

喜欢保留是一本婴儿书

婴儿书或相册记录

了一个人的早期发展它

通常由父母祖父母或

与孩子关系非常密切的其他人保存

它通常记录我可悲的第一次，

例如第一个微笑第一步第一个

字和第一个生日

它可以包括图片和特殊

纪念品，例如婴儿

医院 ID 手镯

聚会，已经很久了你

认为你会记得每个人吗不，但

有一个人我很肯定我

会认出 e 谁是那个

帕特里夏为什么是她因为她是我最好的

朋友也是我高中生活的重要组成部分

我们一起做了所有

事情你们一起做了哪些事情

我们做了啦啦队曲棍球合唱

和许多其他事情听起来像

你亲密的我们就像姐妹一样

为什么你们不做朋友

我们之间的距离

太难了她在加利福尼亚上大学

而我在纽约

上大学这很可惜但是她是

我永远不会忘记的人我希望她

将参加聚会，因为我

真的很期待见到她

我应该在

做什么杰克

整理我的签名收藏我

不知道你喜欢

收集签名

我从小就这样做了你收集

了许多不同类型

的人的签名几乎所有有名的人

给我一些例子

我有电影明星

电视名人体育明星

和政治家的签名你

最喜欢哪一个 avorite 是

杰基·罗宾逊 (Jackie Robinson) 亲笔签名的棒球，他就是杰基·罗宾逊 (

Jackie Robinson) 我不敢相信你

不知道杰基·罗宾逊 (Jackie Robinson) 是

谁打职业

棒球，但现在有很多黑人

棒球运动员为什么

以前不能打，因为人们非常

偏见，职业棒球

运动员必须是白人杰基罗宾逊

是第一个挑战这种

歧视的人，他一定

非常勇敢很多人讨厌

他，他甚至收到了死亡威胁，这

太神奇了，现在人们一定真的很佩服

他，是的，这就是为什么我如此坚定

地要他的亲笔签名，你把

它

放在上锁的箱子里，以确保它是安全的，

这张亲笔签名值得一买很多，因为

他是棒球

和非裔美国人历史上

如此令人

难忘的人物这是值得的，因为

他是我的英雄之一

对话

三，你能帮我一个忙吗？请走吧

，你明天给我寄一封信吗？

我想，但我不能为什么不，因为

明天是小马丁路德金的

生日等等邮局

将关闭哦，我忘记了，我很

乐意在第二天为您邮寄

，没关系，

我可以做到，然后

马丁路德金。我也一直是我的英雄

但我想这个国家几乎每个人都

知道他是一个多么重要的

人物是的成为

民权运动的领导者需要很大的勇气

需要一种特殊

的人才能站起来因为他们

相信每个人都享有平等权利，

这对他来说意义重大，

即使

人们威胁他和他的

家人，他也非常坚强地站出来反对偏见，你知道吗，有些可恶的

人甚至威胁要杀了他的

孩子退后我

听说我认为他最大的

贡献是倡导和平

抗议和示威他

认为爱和尊重会

克服仇恨和偏见他也是

一位出色的演说家每个人都说

他的声音多么强大，真的可以

打动人们他死的时候太可怕了

我不敢相信有人

会如此充满仇恨以至于枪杀他

，那是美国历史上的决定性时刻，

因为我们失去了一位伟大的

领袖太早了我认为这个

国家不应该忘记他的

贡献他的勇气不会被

忘记这就是为什么我们将他的生日作为国庆节来庆祝

马丁路德金时失去了一位伟大的领导人。

除了担任部长之外，他还是美国历史上非常重要的人物他是

民权运动的主要领导人民权

运动

是 1950 年代和 1960 年代非裔美国人为争取

平等权利而发起的有组织的行动，直到那时

合法化的歧视迫使他们

去与白人分开的学校，

甚至让他们坐在火车

和公共汽车的后座上

黑人使用与白人相同的公共厕所和

饮水机甚至是非法的

民权运动试图改变

这一切并根据法律给予黑人平等待遇

国王主张以非暴力方式

抗议不公正现象，

例如游行和静坐等和平示威

破坏任何东西或攻击

任何人，他们只是和平地

保持沉默抗议国王被视为

如此强大的领导者，以至于那些公关

那些想要阻止民权运动的偏见的人以他为

目标，

独白

美国人有 m

在重大场合庆祝好消息的任何方式，例如

去上大学或重要的生日重要的

生日通常会召开派对

包括 16 日 18 日

21 日 40 日和 100 日 16 日很

重要，因为通常是

青少年可以去找他们的司机

执照 18 岁生日是值得注意的，因为

一个人在大多数方面都正式成为合法成年人，

并且可以

在某人年满 21 岁时在政治选举中投票，他们可以

合法地购买和饮酒 40

岁生日意味着进入

中年，对许多人来说，这被认为

是开始变老 100

岁生日是显而易见的，因为

达到那个年龄对于其他类型

的活动来说是一项壮举，例如晋升或

在任务中表现出色的奖励

可能需要晚餐或小礼物

这些活动是通常与

个人或工作相关，通常不

被认可主要里程碑

许多美国人都会说

他们最伟大的之一恐惧是公开演讲

他们担心自己会出丑

这种恐惧会导致他们

要么完全避免公开演讲，要么在被迫进行公开演讲

时忍受极度焦虑

有些人甚至会做

不愉快的梦，

梦到他们可能会以许多不同的方式让

自己难堪发表演讲时，一个

普通的演讲完全忘记了

自己想说什么

发表公共演讲时让自己感到尴尬的

是，

如果您忘记了一个单词，请准备一些笔记以供参考

熟能生巧，你越熟悉

演讲，你就越能自如地说出

和记住单词

保持冷静对于缓慢

而清晰地说话至关重要一个人越紧张

，他或她通常说话的速度就越快
