簡(jiǎn)單英語口語對(duì)話精選在學(xué)習(xí)英語過程中需要注意的誤區(qū)： 我們必須學(xué)會(huì)美國人怎樣描述東西。從描述上來講，由于中美的文化不同會(huì)產(chǎn)生很大的差異。我們描述東西無外乎把它放在時(shí)間和空間兩個(gè)坐標(biāo)上去描述。美國人對(duì)空間的描述總是由內(nèi)及外，由里及表。而中國人正好相反。從時(shí)間上來說，中國人是按自然的時(shí)間順序來描述。我們描述一個(gè)東西突然停住時(shí)，往往最后說的那個(gè)地方是最重要的。美國人在時(shí)間的描述上先把最重要的東西說出來，然后再說陪襯的東西。只有發(fā)生悲劇性的事件，美國人才在前面加上鋪墊。這就是中國人和美國人在時(shí)間描述上的巨大差別?！揪x句式】As a matter of fact, .Who won the golf tournament?
