I'm so sick of running as fast as I can,
Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man.
And I'm so sick of them coming at me again.
'Cause if I was a man, then I'd be the man.
語音講解：
今日發(fā)音練習重點：
言之有物：
1. 伴隨狀語：
I'm so sick of running as fast as I can,
Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man.
wondering 是現(xiàn)在分詞，在這里表示伴隨主句的動作同時發(fā)生，即“一邊對…… 感到厭倦，一邊在思考……”。
*虛擬語氣：
當從句表示與現(xiàn)在事實相反的假設時，be 動詞一般要用 were，而不用 was。
if I was a man 在標準書面英語被認為是語法錯誤。
正確表達為：If I were a man...
2. 詞鏈兒：
be sick of sth
be sick of doing sth
be sick of sb doing sth
be sick (and tired) of (doing)...
I'm sick of the way you've treated me.

I'm sick and tired of your excuses.
你的借口我都聽厭了。

5. 詞匯：man
