笨小孩口语广播:时不我待,脚步请加快!

    “发音模仿秀”语音模仿,秀出一口漂亮英语!  1) Time to knock off!
  NOTE:注意to的弱读,knock off的连读。

  2) We'd better get a move on!
  NOTE:注意get a的连读,还有move on的连读。

 “世博VOA”洗耳恭听,两个句子小菜一碟!

  ANDY: Time to knock off!
  GARY: Oh, yeah. We can go home now. You know we have been so busy for the whole day. I can't imagine why our boss keeps us working all the time!
  ANDY: shh, be careful, the walls have ears! Even you want to complain about your work, you can't shout aloud here. Someone will hear it!
  GARY: I don't care much about it! We have the rights to speak, to discuss and to complain.
  ANDY: Ok, I know you are the bravest one in our company, but we'd better get a move on, or else we would be late for the bus.

  在上面一个对话里面,Andy提出来已经到了knock off的时间,我们可以回家休息了。既然是回家休息,那么knock off很明显是停止做某事,所以Time to knock off就表示该下班了!接下来他们谈到了公司的老板,Gary不明白为什么老板会一直让他们忙个不停!而且显示出抱怨的语气,这个时候Andy提醒他不要说了,还是抓紧时间赶我们的公共汽车吧!We'd better get a move on.我们最好抓紧时间!

  1) Time to knock off! 该下班了!
  2) We'd better get a move on! 我们最好抓紧时间!

 “请你猜猜看”挑战自我,情景抢答也刺激!

  Here are three situations:

  S1. Today, a movie called Hero will be showed in the Bohai Cinema. It will begin at 7 p.m. Now is about half past six. Do you want to go with me? If so, please……

  S2. Suppose there is a lazybone in your company. That is to say, he has never come to work before 8 a.m. and he would stop working right at 6 p.m. So what would he say when it is about 6 p.m?

  S3. Wow, it is about 8 o'clock. Let's be quick, otherwise we would be late for the class and the teacher surely will be angry again. Here, what is the other way to say "Let's be quick"?
