把count down(倒计时)说成英语
如果我们只是为了“学”英语单词,知道它的中文意思是什么,我们说中文“倒计时”即可。但这是典型的“学”英语,不是“用”英语。
我们把英语count down学成英语时,就需要我们把学过的英语用起来,于是,我们就可以训练英语口语了:
1.Okay.When we count down,or do a countdown,we count the numbers from 10 to 1,like ten,nine,eight,seven,six,etc.,one,go!
Well,that is a countdown.
说这些高中英语很容易,所以就不要再说中文“倒计时”了。
2.我们用上一个词:backward,相对于forward,表达count down
Okay.When we count numbers backward,like from three to one,that is a countdown or we are counting down.
3. We count down to show the time remaining for an event or an action,or to show how much time we still have for an event or an action.
