2月晨读听歌学英语-complicated
语言点:
1.chill:这个词是冷、冷静的意思,进一步可以引申为放松、淡定。
想表达放松一点,除了用relax,还可以只用一个chill就可以完美表达。

just chilling一般表示正在放松,逛街时如果跟店员表示,没什么想找的东西只是看看也可以用到这个表达。

chill out出去玩
2.lay back/kick back 放松一点
可以说:You put too much pressure on yourself,just lay back and relax!

3.like you the way you are 就喜欢你这个样子
想表达就喜欢对方现在的样子可以说:I like you just the way you are.

4.one-on-one 一对一的
one on one lesson/meeting/coaching

5.watch your back:protect yourself (or someone else) against danger from an unexpected quarter.(保护好自己)小心一点。
例句:I got punched by someone so I always watch my back when I walk in the street.

6.呆在原地不要动:stay put/stay where you are
例句:Stay put! I'll be right back.

7.take what you get:这个短语的解释比较subtle,类似于我们常说的“有这些还不知足?认清你自己能吃几碗饭吧!”我查到了如下释义:In English we have the idiomatic expression "I take [accept] what I can get [what comes to me]" as opposed to going after something that you want ideally.

8.promise me/guarantee me 答应我,向我保证

9.complex/complicated的区别
complex着重指数量比较多,而complicated多指事物之间的关系复杂。
例句:The problems of poverty are complicated.
The mechanism of jet engines is complex.

10.vote with your feet:这个短语字面解释为用脚投票,意思就是退出投票,引申为退出某事:to show your opinion by leaving an organization or by no longer supporting, using, or buying something.
例句:When the price of skiing doubled, tourists voted with their feet and just stopped going.
11.sb come over/show up/visit unannounced不打招呼就来了,与came prepared形成对比
造句:I hate people that show up to my house unannounced,since my room has always been a mess.

12.strike your pose 摆姿势 造型
sb strike sb as…让谁觉得谁是什么样的人
例句:He struck me as a very serious person.
13.make sb laugh out/crack sb up 让某人笑,crack表示破裂,在这里非常形象。
例句:He never fails to crack me up.

与sb is hilarious/interesting有相近的含义。
14.preppy clothes 私立学校校服
preppy是预备学校学生的意思,preppy style可以理解为学院风。

语音点:
1.let it be和waiting注意美音的flap t
2.complicated重音在com上不是cated
