英語(yǔ)早間課堂:話說(shuō)地道美語(yǔ) Lesson 15(5)

Lesson Fifteen ( the Third Lecture)我的朋友，“話說(shuō)地道美語(yǔ)”等待您很久了，我是Juliet，或許您也等待“話說(shuō)地道美語(yǔ)”很久了，因?yàn)槲覀兇蠹叶级冗^(guò)了一個(gè)長(zhǎng)假?，F(xiàn)在的桂林，丹楓迎秋，金桂飄香，金風(fēng)玉露，秋高氣爽，秋陽(yáng)杲杲，霜天紅葉，稻谷飄鄉(xiāng)——好一派亮麗的秋景!

I didn't get up on the wrong side of the bed every day. I was in the senventh heaven all the time, spending a seven-day holiday. And did you not get out of bed on the wrong side each day? I am hoping that you didn't wake up on the wrong side of the bed. Well , whatever your answer is "Yes." or "No", it passed. A new day comes and we must go back to work or study.

【課堂熱身】

大家還記得在第15課中講述的“to express someone is unhappy (the whole day)”的非常有趣的而且還充滿著迷信色彩的說(shuō)法嗎?Actually, I've talked of them at the start of today's programme. So, what are they? They are: get up on the wrong side of the bed; get out of bed on the wrong side; wake up on the wrong side of the bed. In addition, we have two short sentences to say it. They are "You get out of bed the wrong way." or "You get out of bed with the left leg foremost." 以上個(gè)習(xí)語(yǔ)和2個(gè)短句都是可以描述一個(gè)人(整天或者是一天中的一段時(shí)間或者是某時(shí)候)心境糟糕，心緒煩亂，心煩意亂，情緒不佳等等不好的心理狀況。
