I like teaching English and you like learning English, don‘t you?

我喜欢教英语，你喜欢学英语，不是吗？

But those phrases don‘t really give any information about how teaching or learning English makes us feel.

但这些短语并不能真正说明教或学英语给我们的感觉。

Your likes and dislikes are much more complicated than simply liking or disliking something.

你的好恶比简单的喜欢或不喜欢某样东西要复杂得多。

It‘s far more interesting when we can explain more about what that thing makes us feel.

当我们能更多地解释那东西带给我们的感受时，这就更有趣了。

How do you feel about sharks?

你觉得鲨鱼怎么样？

Oh, sharks are terrifying.

噢，鲨鱼很吓人。

Sharks are such interesting creatures.

鲨鱼是一种很有趣的生物。

I am fascinated by them.

我很迷恋它们。

I‘m amazed by sharks and other sea creatures.

我对鲨鱼和其他海洋生物感到赞叹。

Isn‘t that so much more interesting than simply saying whether or not you like something?

这不比简单地说你是否喜欢某物有趣吗？

Do you like sharks?

你喜欢鲨鱼吗？

Yeah.

喜欢。

Yes.

喜欢。

No.

不喜欢。

Now, back to the lesson.

现在，我们回到这节课。

In English, many adjectives are formed by adding ing or ed to a verb.

在英语中，许多形容词是通过在动词后加 ing 或 ed 而形成的。

For example, the verb "to annoy".

例如，动词 annoy。

We can use an ing suffix to show what or who is being annoying.

我们可以加上 ing 后缀表示某物或某人很烦人。

"My sister is annoying." She‘s not, really.

“我姐姐很烦人。”没有啦。

Or if you want to explain who is experiencing the emotion, you could use an ed suffix and say "I am annoyed".

或者如果你想解释某人在经历这种感情，你可以用 ed 后缀，例如：我觉得很烦。

Notice how we don‘t put the emphasis on the ed at all.

注意我们不会重读 ed。

You don‘t pronounce that e, you just pronounce the d on the end: annoyed, annoyed, annoyed.

这里的 e 是不发音的，我们只发末尾的 d 音：annoyed，annoyed，annoyed。

So, you use ing if you‘re talking about the cause and ed if you‘re talking about the effect.

如果你说的是原因，那就加 ing；如果你说的是影响，那就加 ed。

So, you could say, "The trip to the beach was relaxing. my friends and I felt relaxed." The trip to the beach is the cause which had an effect on myself and my friends.

你可以说：沙滩之旅让人很放松，我的朋友和我都很放松。沙滩之旅是原因，它对我和我的朋友造成了影响。

"The trip to the beach was relaxing, my friends and I felt relaxed." So, if you want to include the subject and the object in a sentence to explain everything in one go, you could say, "I was exhausted by the drive." So, you say the subject, the verb, the adjective with an ed suffix and the word "by" and finally, the object.

“沙滩之旅让人很放松，我的朋友和我都很放松。”如果你想在一句话中包含主语和宾语来解释所有的事情，你可以说，“我被开车弄得筋疲力尽了。”所以，顺序是主语加动词加带 ed 后缀的形容词加 by，最后加宾语。

"I was exhausted by the drive." "The drive was exhausting, I felt exhausted." Here‘s another example.

“我被开车弄得筋疲力尽了。”“开车很累，我觉得很累。”下面是另一个例子。

"I was entertained by the performance." "The performance was entertaining and I felt entertained." "I was puzzled by your email." To "be puzzled" is to very confused.

“我被这场演出逗乐了。”“这场演出很欢乐，我被逗乐了。”“我被你的邮件弄糊涂了。”Be puzzled 就是很迷惑。

"Your email was puzzling. I was puzzled." Now, it‘s your turn.

“你的邮件令人费解。我很困惑。”现在，轮到你了。

In the comments, I‘d like you to tell me about three things.

我想你在评论中告诉我三件事。

One, tell me about something that has annoyed you recently.

第一，告诉我最近让你烦心的事。

Two, tell me about something that has interested you recently.

第二，告诉我一些你最近感兴趣的事。

Three, tell me about something that has shocked you recently.

第三，告诉我一些最近让你震惊的事。

And then, once you‘ve done that, why not come over to this lesson.

完了之后，为什么不看这一课呢？

I‘ll see you there.

我会在那里跟你相见。
