A: 美語訓(xùn)練班上課啦！大家好，我是楊琳！
B: 我是Kat! 楊琳，快說說咱們今天都要學(xué)什么？
A: 好! 今天，咱們要去party上吃個大餐，看看接受媒體采訪要注意些什么，看看怎么說船到橋頭自然直，還要告訴大家怎么用這個流行的BFF！
B: Yanglin, you are totally my BFF!...the kind of real BFF that would get me a new Macbook Pro 3 for my birthday...
A: 大家瞧Kat的夢做得多美呀！好了好了，言歸正傳，我們趕快先來進(jìn)入第一個單元，Learn a Word!
Learn A Word mandatory
今天我們要學(xué)的詞是mandatory. Mandatory is spelled m-a-n-d-a-t-o-r-y, mandatory. Mandatory指“強(qiáng)制性的，必須的”。比如，mandatory retirement age 強(qiáng)制退休年齡。Bulgaria's Minister of Regional Development is calling for the introduction of mandatory insurance for private residencies and all privately-owned buildings. 保加利亞地區(qū)發(fā)展部部長提出，應(yīng)要求該國的私人住宅和全部私有建筑一律購買保險。The New York City Council is considering a new bill that will make it mandatory for all bikers to wear helmets.紐約市市議員正在考憚7b一項新議案，硬性要求紐約市每個騎自行車的人都必須佩戴頭盔。好，今天我們學(xué)習(xí)的詞是mandatory, mandatory, mandatory...
B: Ugh- mandatory things stress me out! I hate mandatory classes in school, I'd rather be more flexible and do what I want when I want!
A: 我也不喜歡上有些必修課，就像什么毛澤東思想鄧小平理論的……太無聊了！不過我倒是覺得，像數(shù)學(xué)啊，物理阿什么的，雖然我都不喜歡，可是畢竟對以后還是有用的嘛！
B: Well, as I always say, all the hard questions are for FUTURE KAT! I just don't think it's worth it to worry about things- if there's a problem, I will just cross that bridge when I come to it ...
A: 你真是個隨性的人呀! 不過你剛才提到了一個很好的詞兒，cross that bridge when one comes to it, 咱們一起來聽聽這個習(xí)慣用語的用法！
