We've learnt four ways of telling somebody to keep a secret which are " Not a word. " ; " I am not one to kiss and tell. " ; " Keep it to yourself. " and " Keep your mouth shut. " And today I would like to share a new expression with you which means " Only you and I know. " which is way to say some information is very private. What's it? Let's listen to a simple situational dialogue and find it.
A : Just between us . My marriage isn't going well .
B : Are you fighting a lot with your husband?

【答疑解惑】
It is " Just between us ." We also can say "It's between you and me. " "It's between us. " "It's stays between us." "It stays here. " just 可以放在 between 和stay的前面，以表示強(qiáng)調(diào)。Just between us字面上的意思是：就在你和我之間。在口語中說及秘密時，意思就是：這是你我之間的秘密（談話），不要告訴別人。

【即學(xué)即用】
Let's put it into practice. Please translate the following sentences into English.
1 只有你和我知道這事。
2 好了，我有主意了，但是這是我們之間的秘密，行嗎？
3 在這里說的話不要告訴別人。
Think them hard and the answers will be given later.
1 This is between you and me.
2 Alright , I got an idea. But it stays between us. Agreed ?
3 What's said here stays here.
The above sentences are from hit American films . Here are some tips we should pay attention to.
1 Alright 就是 all right .但是在電影中經(jīng)常寫為:Alright.在《老友記》里面 come on 就寫為: c'mon.
2 Get an idea 意思是：想到一個注意。
3 Agreed 是個省略句。完整的句子是：Do you agree? 在影視腳本語言中，如果直接用實義動詞來提問，相當(dāng)于一般疑問句， 那么就用這個實義動詞的過去式。We've learnt "Do you understand?" 在影視中就是：Understood?

【聽透美語】
Please listen to me to read the dialogue to see the differences between my pronunciation and the pronunciation in the recording. 請聽我的發(fā)音與錄音的發(fā)音有什么區(qū)別。
A: Just between us. My marriage isn't going well.
B: Are you fighting a lot with your husband?
I will give explanations to you one by one.
1 just between us ['dʒʌsbtwi:nəs]
【點(diǎn)撥】just 以爆破輔音[t]結(jié)尾， between 又以爆破輔音 [d] 開頭，因此前一個爆破輔音[t] 這時就要保持沉默了。Between 以輔音[n] 結(jié)尾, us 以元音 [ ə] 開頭，可以進(jìn)行連讀。 The stress falls on the first syllable .
2 isn't going [[i'zn'gəuiŋ]
【點(diǎn)撥】isn't 以爆破輔音[t]結(jié)尾，而going 又以 爆破輔音[g] 開頭，因此前面的[t]不發(fā)音。The stresses fall on the second and the third syllable.
3 with you [wiðju:]
【點(diǎn)撥】with 以輔音[ð]結(jié)尾，you的發(fā)音半元音[ju:], 可以進(jìn)行連讀。
4 fighting ['faɪdin]
【點(diǎn)撥】美語中[tɪŋ]發(fā)音為[din].
句子中的連讀濁音等一要看規(guī)則，而要就住特例。
Let's look at the stresses in the following sentences. They depends on a conversational dialogue in which how the speaker's mood is and your language sense .
1 'Just between us .
2 My 'marriage i'sn't 'going 'well .
3 Are you 'fighting a 'lot with 'your 'husband?
一個句子的重音判斷一要看整個對話的情景，說話者的語氣，還有一個很重要的是我們的語感。

【小題大作】
My marriage isn't going well .
【翻譯】我的婚姻不如意。
【關(guān)鍵詞】In this sentence "go" which is a key word refers to progress. It's used to talk about how well or badly something makes progress or succeeds. 意思是：（事情）進(jìn)展，進(jìn)行。We'er very familiar with the two sentences orally which are : Did everything go smoothly? 一切都順利嗎？How's it going? It goes well. 近況如何？很好。
【文法】這句中用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時表示經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)的情況。Well 是副詞，修飾 go，做狀語，表程度。

Are you fighting a lot with your husband?
【翻譯】你經(jīng)常和你丈夫吵架嗎？
【關(guān)鍵詞】In this sentence "fight" means "to have an argument ". Here is a set phrase which is " fight with somebody about something", about 可以改為over, 意思是：因某事和某人吵架，爭辯。For example: It's a trivial matter and not worth fighting about. 這是樁小事，不值得爭吵。
【文法】此句中用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時表示經(jīng)常發(fā)生的事情。A lot 是副詞短語修飾fight , 表頻率。With your husband 是介詞短語，修飾fight, 表對象。
