數(shù)字英語對話技巧
一、數(shù)字表達類(Numbers)
1.英語中純數(shù)字的表達方法
小數(shù)和分數(shù):
0.17 zero point one seven / point seventeen / zero point seventeen
1/2 one half
1/3 one /a third
3/4 three fourths
7'2/ 5seven and two fifths
大于100的數(shù)字:
101 one hundred (and ) one
200 two hundred
998 nine hundred ( and ) ninety'eight
在英語中上面括弧中的and一般不能省略;而在美國英語中卻往往省去。請分析下面的對話:
A:How many people are present in the party last night?
B: That‘s nine hundred and ninety-eight, exactly.
A: Woo, you must be joking. How can you get such an accurate number?
B: Ha, ha…… surely I am joking. You silly goose.
大于1000的數(shù)字:
1001 a/one thousand (and) one
2232 two thousand two hundred (and) thirty'two
900,732,266,043
nine hundred billion seven hundred thirty'two million two hundred sixty'six thousand and forty three
英語中一千以上數(shù)字的表達方法是以三位數(shù)為單元,從高到低billion,million,thousand而依次讀出的。因此我們在聽時,可以三位數(shù)三位數(shù)地記錄。試比較下面的對話:
A:Can you tell me exactly the numbers of the whole people in our country?
B:One billion four hundred thirty'two million two hundred sixty'six thousand and forty three.
A:Thank you very much.
2.英語中時間的表達方法
英語中時間的表達方法主要有直接法和借用介詞法等。
(1)直接法。
上午八點eight AM (a.m.)[ei em]
下午九點nine PM (p.m.)[pi:em]
六點六分six six
六點三十二six thirty two
八點正eight o'clock
(2)借用介詞法。
八點四十五a quarter to nine
七點零五分five past seven
七點五十四six to eight
六點半half past six
(3)表示正點的用法。
十一點正at 11 o'clock sharp
at 11 o'clock on the hour
at 11 o'clock on the strike
正午12點at noon
午夜12點at midnight
(注:12點22分可讀作:twelve twenty-two: twenty-two past twelve(英式說法);twenty-two after twelve(美式說法)
1點15可讀作:one fifteen; a quarter past one(英式說法):a quarter after one(美英說法)
8點50分可讀作:eight fifty; ten to nine(英式說法);ten before nine(美式說法)
1點40分可讀作:one forty; twenty to two(英式說法);twenty before two(美式說法)
“提前半小時”可用:half an hour early; thirty minutes early; early by half an hour; half an hour ahead of time; half an hour ahead of schedule等來表示。)
時間表示法和時段的簡單運算是聽力考試的熱點,請看下面的對話:
W: How long does the class usually last?
M: Umm, let me think. It starts from a quarter to nine, and ends at nine thirty. So……
W: That is forty'five minutes. Thank you very much!
Q: When does the class usually start?
3.英語中貨幣的表達方法
英國貨幣:penny(便士)/pence (penny的復(fù)數(shù)),pound (£)
£20.50:twenty pounds fifty pence,也可以簡單地寫作:twenty fifty
美國貨幣:
1美元鈔票a S|1.00 bill
1 dollar=100 cents
(S|1.00=one dollar)
(S|2.00=two dollars)
25美分1 quarter
10美分1 dime
5美元1 nickel
1美分1 penny
S|15.95:fifteen dollars ninety-five cents,或fifteen ninety-five.
(注:表示正常價格: regular price, normal price.
表示價格劃算:a good buy, a better buy, an excellent price, a good price/ bargain.
表示價格較貴:dear, expensive, more expensive, steep.
表示價格便宜:cheap, inexpensive, bargain price, less expensive.
表示減價出售:sale price, on sale, garage sale, Christmas sale, special price.
詞組:discount, half, double, cut off, knock off, twice as much as ,cross off, etc.)
4.英語中關(guān)于數(shù)字及其計算的聽力考點
(1)數(shù)字辨別:
有關(guān)數(shù)字辨別的一個關(guān)鍵考點就是類似30/13,40/14,50/15,60/16的聽音,看大家能否聽出其發(fā)音區(qū)別。聽力理解中難以分辨的基數(shù)詞主要有以下幾對:
thirteen與thirty; fourteen與forty; fifteen與fifty; sixteen與sixty; seventeen與seventy;eighteen與eighty; nineteen與ninety,在英文中這幾對數(shù)詞叫做teens and tens(十幾與幾十)。
不管加減還是乘除,這類題中至少會出現(xiàn)兩個數(shù)字,你的任務(wù)就是迅速地判斷這兩者的關(guān)系,然后根據(jù)聽音再確定正確選項。
(2)加減法計算:
在需要簡單的加減法計算的題型中,對話中至少出現(xiàn)兩個數(shù)字,它們之間的關(guān)系往往用“多少”、“遲早”、“快慢”、“前后”的形容詞、副詞或介詞短語等來表達。還要注意一些能夠表示數(shù)的存在或引起數(shù)的變化的動詞,這些動詞也能確定數(shù)字之間的加減關(guān)系,例如:
be, have, start, begin, spend, miss, leave, postpone, prolong, increase, add, borrow, lend, loan, delay, save, go up, go down, rate, at x% off the price等。
大家還應(yīng)該記住下面這些表示加減關(guān)系的詞:
more(多),less(少),late(晚),early(早),fast(快),slow(慢),before(前),after(后),add/addition(加上),plus(加上),subtract/ subtraction(減去),minus(減去)
Dialogue 1:
M: This black bag is 2.00 and that blue one is a dollar more.
W: The red one is twice as much as the blue one.
Q: How much are two red bags?
A.S|4.00B.S|6.00
C.S|8.00D.S|12.00
這道題從選擇項上來看非常簡單,因為數(shù)字不大,所以乍一看選擇項有可能放松警惕,而實際上,這道貌似簡單的題,中間卻暗含著陷阱。因為原文中提到black、blue、red三個顏色的bag,最后提問的是紅色書包的價格,包含了一個加法和乘法運算。如果大家在聽的時候沒記好,又沒有做好筆記,就很容易出錯。因此,在聽力答題中要保持一個清醒的頭腦,穩(wěn)扎穩(wěn)打是成功的重要保證。
Dialogue 2:
W: Three hours ago, I saw Bob at a meeting. Is he home yet?
M: No. He said he would be back at four and it's six already.
Question: What time did the woman see Bob?
A??2∶00 B??3∶00 C??5∶00 D??6∶00
在這個例子中,見到Bob的具體時間必須依據(jù)現(xiàn)在的時間推斷出?,F(xiàn)在時間是6點鐘,而說話人是在三小時之前見到Bob的,因而那時的時間約是3點鐘。正確的選項是B.
Dialogue 3:
M:Which coat did you finally decide to buy?
W: Well, I would like to buy the green one, but it was S|85.00, so I bought the pink one instead, and save S|35.00.
Question: How much did the woman pay for the coat?
A'60 B??75 C??90 D??50
原對話中并未直接給出說話人所購買的衣服的價錢,但可以通過其他信息推算出來?;疑路?5元,而買棕色的可以節(jié)省35元,即棕色的衣服是50元。應(yīng)選D.
Dialogue 4:
W.How many people showed up for the meeting yesterday, thirty?
M:Twenty-five are expected to come, but the number was double that.
Question: What's the actual number of people who attended the meeting?
A'20 B'35 C'35 D'50
此題中的運算關(guān)系由double一詞體現(xiàn)出來,即雙倍的。原來預(yù)計有25人到場,實際上是原先的兩倍,因而正確的選項是D.

數(shù)字英語對話
數(shù)字英語對話的正確表達
在漢英筆譯和英語寫作中,經(jīng)常會遇到數(shù)字;哪些場合用單詞表示,哪些場合用阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字表示,往往使人難以確定,現(xiàn)行語法書中也極少涉及此類問題。
實際上,以英語為母語的國家,在書寫數(shù)字時已形成幾條約定俗成的規(guī)則,現(xiàn)總結(jié)如下供讀者參考。
一. 英美等國的出版社在排版時遵循一條原則,即1至10用單詞表示,10以上的數(shù)目用阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字(也有的以100為界限),這條原則值得我們行文時借鑒。
Eg. That table measures ten feet by five.
那個工作臺長10英尺,寬5英尺。
Eg. The traditional pattern of classroom experience at the college level brings the professor and a group of 20 to 30 students together for a 45-to-50-minute class session two or three times a week.
由一個教授和十名學(xué)生每周會晤兩三次,每次授課時間45到50分鐘,是大學(xué)程度課堂教學(xué)的傳統(tǒng)方式。
二. 人數(shù)用阿技伯?dāng)?shù)字表示顯得更簡潔明了,但不定數(shù)量、近似值用單詞表示較恰當(dāng)。
Eg. There are 203817 voters on the electoral rolls.
選舉名單上有203817個投票人。
Eg. Nearly thirty thousand voters took part in this election.
近3萬個投票人參加了這次選舉。
三. 遇到日期、百分比、帶單位的特殊數(shù)字,通常用阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字。
Eg. Maximum swivel of table is l20.
工作臺的最大回轉(zhuǎn)角度是120度。
Eg. 3rd March l991或3 March l991;
a discount of 5 percent(5%的折扣);
Eg. purchased 7 yards of carpet(買7碼地毯);
Eg. ordered 2 pounds of minced steak(訂購2磅剁碎的肉)。
如果涉及的數(shù)目和單位是不定數(shù),可用單詞表示。
Eg. about five miles per hour(每小時大約5英里)
Eg. at least ten yards away(至少有10碼遠)
Eg. hesitated for a moment or two(猶豫了片刻)
Eg. I have warned you a hundred times(我已經(jīng)警告你多少遍了)。
四. 在科技文章中,數(shù)字頻繁出現(xiàn),用阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字比用單詞陳述更有利。
Eg. The new engine has a capacity of 4.3 litres and a power out-put of 153 kilowatts at 4400 revolutions per minute.
這臺新發(fā)動機的容積為4.3升,轉(zhuǎn)速為每分鐘4400轉(zhuǎn)時輸出功率是153千瓦。
Eg. We know that the weight of a cubic foot of air at 0oC and 76cm,pressure is 0.08l pound, or 12 cubic feet of air weigh a pound.
我們知道,1立方英尺的空氣在0攝氏度和760毫米汞柱壓力下,重量是0.81磅,也就是說12立方英尺空氣的重量是1磅。
五. 句首不用阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字,句末要盡量避免用阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字。
Eg. 4th July is an important date in American history.
應(yīng)該寫成The fourth of July...
Eg. 19 couples took part in the ballroom dancing competition.
19對選手參加了交際舞比賽。
應(yīng)改寫成:Nineteen couples took...
Eg. 60%profit was a reported.
據(jù)報道有60%的利潤。
應(yīng)改寫成:Sixty per cent profit…
Eg. 1345 kilograms force was applied at the center point of the bar.
試驗時在桿的中點加1345公斤力。
可改成When tested, a force of l345 kg was applied...
六. 遇到分數(shù),可用帶連字符號的單詞表示。
Eg. At 1east two-thirds of the class have had colds.
這個班至少有三分之二的學(xué)生患重感冒。
Eg. Nitrogen forms about four-fifths of the atmosphere.
氮約占大氣的五分之四。

對話原文:
Teacher:Today we’ll study numbers. What’s this number?
今天我們來學(xué)習(xí)數(shù)字。這個數(shù)字是多少?
Student:It’s one hundred and forty。
是140。
Teacher:Yes. Is it an even number or an odd number?
對。那它是偶數(shù)還是奇數(shù)?
Student:Well, a number that can be divided by two is an even number, so it’s an even number。
嗯,一個若能被2整除的就是偶數(shù),所以它是偶數(shù)。
Teacher:OK. Let’s look at the next one。
好的。贊美來看下一個數(shù)。
Student:This figure is zero point five. It’s a decimal number。
這個數(shù)是0.5,是一個小數(shù)。

Student:Yes. The number is one half。
知道,是1/2。
Teacher:Now pick two numbers between one and ten, including decimal numbers and fractions, then add, subtract, multiply or divide them as you like. If there are decimals in your answer, round them up to the nearest whole number。
現(xiàn)在從1到10之間挑選兩個數(shù),包括小數(shù)和分數(shù),然后隨意進行加、減、乘、除運算。如果的出來的答案是小數(shù),就四舍五入到最接近的整數(shù)。
Student:Nine minus six is three. Four multiplied by two equals eight. Zero point three six plus one point seven five equals…
9減6等于3.4乘以2等于8 。0.36加1.75等于...
Teacher:Two point one one. Rounding it off to the nearest whole number gives you two. It’s easier to add it all up if you use whole numbers。
2.11。四舍五入到最接近的整數(shù)是2。如果你用整數(shù)相加要容易些。
Student:I get it. Thank you。
我知道了,謝謝老師。

數(shù)字英語對話教學(xué)的方法
(一) 情景法
語言的交流離不開情景,情景是幼兒進行英語對話和交流的重要條件,因此,教師在幼兒園英語對話教學(xué)活動中,應(yīng)善于創(chuàng)設(shè)與對話內(nèi)容相對應(yīng)的、特定的場景,在接近真實的生活情景中呈現(xiàn)和操練對話,幫助幼兒理解和運用對話內(nèi)容。如以“in the department store(在百貨商店)”為主題的對話中,教師可在教室創(chuàng)設(shè)類似百貨商店的情景,放置貨品架,設(shè)置收銀臺,提供相應(yīng)的售貨員服飾和貨品等,教授對話“— can i help you ? — id like the red hat. how much is it? — its 10 yuan.”在接近真實的百貨商店的情景中,幼兒能夠更自然地扮演售貨員和顧客的角色,身臨其境地進行對話的理解和交流。
(二) 角色扮演法
人們之間發(fā)生的對話一定是與生活中的某個角色與身份相聯(lián)系的,因此,幼兒園英語對話教學(xué)最常用的方法是角色扮演法。教師可提供相應(yīng)的服裝道具,讓幼兒扮演對話所對應(yīng)的人物角色,并結(jié)合所創(chuàng)設(shè)的場景,讓幼兒在角色扮演的過程中進行彼此的交流和表達。如在以” my home”為主題的環(huán)境中,幼兒可裝扮自己成為母親和孩子的角色,來表演所學(xué)的對話:“— whats for breakfast? — milk and sandwich.”
(三) 交際法
學(xué)習(xí)對話最好的方式便是進行交際。在幼兒園對話教學(xué)活動中,教師可利用已創(chuàng)設(shè)好的場景,讓幼兒置身于情景中,通過一問一答的形式來操練對話,進行相互間的交流和溝通。交際法的運用,既進行了英語對話的復(fù)習(xí)鞏固,又突出了語言的交際功能。如在創(chuàng)設(shè)“taxi(出租車)”場景的基礎(chǔ)上,教師鼓勵幼兒扮演司機和乘客,進行角色間的對話:“— where are you going? — im going to the park.”又如在交通工具的英語主題教學(xué)中, 幼兒都喜歡帶玩具車 來幼兒園,教師可創(chuàng)設(shè)停車場的情景,將幼兒各自喜歡的玩具車放在停車場上,讓幼兒兩兩結(jié)伴互相談?wù)勛约旱能嚭蛣e人的車,促進 幼兒用英語進行交流的能力:“— what colour is your car?— my car is blue. what do you like? — i like the green bike.”
通過以上的內(nèi)容,我們已經(jīng)了解了數(shù)字英語對話的內(nèi)容了,在進行數(shù)字英語對話教學(xué)的時候,可以參考上面的方法去做,具體的可以咨詢聽力課堂。
