So these are all very common words we use when we talk about university.
在我們談論大學相關話題的時候經常會用到這些單詞。
If there are any words here that you don't know the meaning of,
如果這里有你不認識的單詞
I highly recommend watching some previous videos I've done on these words that explain them fully.
,我強烈推薦你去看看我之前上傳的一些關于這些單詞的視頻,我在里面詳細地解釋過這些單詞的意思。
So there will be a link for that, so feel free, if you don't know these words, to click on the link.
稍后我會把鏈接放上來,所以如果你不認識這些單詞的話,盡管打開這條鏈接。
So now what I'm going to have you do is we are going to do a practice listening.
那么現在我要讓你做的就是,我們要做一個聽力練習。
You are going to listen to me tell you a story about university.
你將會聽到我講述一個關于大學的故事。
You are going to look at these words, and if you hear me say the word, you're going to put a checkmark right beside the words you hear.
你要看著這些單詞,如果你聽見我提到了某個單詞,就在聽到的單詞旁邊打個勾。
If you are on engVid, there's going to be a link that you can click to download these words so you can print them off and have them in front of you.
如果你是在engVid上看這個視頻的,那你就可以點擊一下這個鏈接來下載這些單詞,以便于你把它們打印出來,拿在手里。
Same with on YouTube, if you're watching this off of YouTube, there will be a link you can click on in the description,
在Youtube上看見的也一樣,如果你是在Youtube上觀看這個視頻的話,你會在詳情處找到一個鏈接,點擊一下
and that will take you to a place where you can download a list of these words.
你就能進入下載頁面,就可以把這些單詞下載下來了。
Otherwise, if you don't want to do that, you can actually just copy them out by hand, just write down these words.
另外,如果你不想這么麻煩的話,也可以直接自己把這些單詞抄下來。
And then when you're ready, you can listen to me, and all you need to do is if you hear the word, you put a checkmark.
等你準備好之后,就可以聽我讀下面的故事了。你要做的事情就是,當你聽到某個單詞的時候,在旁邊打個勾。
If you don't hear the word in what I'm going to say, then no checkmark.
如果你在我講的這個故事里沒有聽到這個單詞,就不要打勾了。
Okay, so let's get started. So, again, put a checkmark if you hear the word.
好了,那我們開始吧。再說一遍,如果聽到了這個單詞就打勾。
I went to the University of Toronto. I remember when I was an undergrad, I found school very difficult, especially in my freshman year.
我是在多倫多大學上的學。我還記得我讀大學的時候,覺得在學校的一切都很困難,尤其是大一那年。
I guess the main problem was it was my first time away from home.
我猜主要原因就是那是我第一次離開家。
School had always come naturally to me before. I wasn't used to cramming and pulling all-nighters. I naturally had been a straight-A student.
以前,學業對我來說總是很自然的一件事。我過去并不習慣死記硬背和開夜車,但我自然而然就成了一個優秀學生。
Now I had to work hard so I wouldn't flunk.
可是現在我必須努力學習才能不掛科。
The problem was I was terrified of my prof and my TAs.
問題是,我當時很怕我的教授和助教們。
