Jessica在北京學(xué)漢語(yǔ)，她的中國(guó)朋友要是遇到了不知道用美語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)的詞，就會(huì)來(lái)請(qǐng)教她。今天是逸華要問(wèn)的：頭腦風(fēng)暴。

Jessica: Yihua! your presentation was awesome! I'm really impressed!

YH: 謝謝你 Jessica! 做得好，可不是我一個(gè)人的功勞！ 我們小組成員坐下來(lái)，來(lái)了一次頭腦風(fēng)暴！所以演示才這么成功。

Jessica: 頭腦風(fēng)暴？What's that?

YH: 就是大家坐下來(lái)一起討論，集思廣益呀！

Jessica: Oh! I think I know what you are talking about! You guys had a brainstorming session.

YH: Brain, b-r-a-i-n, 大腦； storm, s-t-o-r-m, 風(fēng)暴。加在一起，brainstorm 就是頭腦風(fēng)暴嘍！

Jessica: Exactly! Brainstorm basically means to put your heads together in order to come up with good ideas.

YH: put someones' heads together, 把頭放在一起！引伸出來(lái)就是集思廣益。就象中文里說(shuō)的，三個(gè)臭皮匠，賽過(guò)一個(gè)諸葛亮。

Jessica: That's right! 對(duì)了，吳瓊的生日快到了，Let's put our heads together and figure out what we can give her for her birthday.

YH: Good idea! 我知道，吳瓊特別標(biāo)新立異，所以啊，這生日禮物也得有創(chuàng)意才行。

Jessica: I know how picky she can be... But we can do it! Let's think outside the box and see what we should get him.

YH: Think outside the box? 到盒子外面去找?

Jessica: It basically means to break out of your normal ideas and be creative.

YH: 這個(gè)說(shuō)法形象！Think outside the box! 跳出條條框框去想，就是有創(chuàng)意。集思廣義，一定能找到有創(chuàng)意的想法。

Jessica: There you go! Now tell me what you've learned today!

YH: 第一：頭腦風(fēng)暴叫做：brainstorm;

第二，集思廣義，可以說(shuō): put ones' heads together;

第三， 創(chuàng)造性思維，叫think outside the box.
