外交部“翻译女神”姚梦瑶教科书级别的英文演讲: 英语学习的意义

如何学好英语?
The professor told us if we want to learn English well, we need to talk in English and think in English and listen.
教授告诉我们,如果我们想学好英语,我们需要用英语说话,用英语思维。
I try to think in English critically, every minute, every day for the rest of my undergraduate years.I talk to myself in English all the time. I talk to myself in English in my dreams.
在本科剩下的几年里,我每天每一分钟都在努力用英语进行对话。我总是用英语自言自语;哪怕在梦里,我也在用英语自言自语。
如何像母语者一样讲英语?
Basic skills matter. Pronunciation, intonation and grammar. Your voice emotion, pitch and pace. Those seemingly trivial details shape the first impression.
基本技能。发音、语调和语法。你的声音情感,音高和节奏。那些看似琐碎的细节塑造了第一印象。
Get every single detail right and you will shine. You need to know how to carry yourself on stage, to drive your point home.
把握好每一个细节,你就会熠熠生辉。你需要知道如何在台上表现自己,把你的观点讲清楚。

Adaptable: Every debater has to adapt to the role.
适应性:每个辩手都必须适应自己的角色。
Absorbed: It takes time.For every two minutes of glamor, there are eight hours of hard work.
吸收:这需要时间。台上风光二分钟,台下辛苦八小时。
