我去教会上的第一堂免费英语课

Jcassar

上课时间是每周四上午的10点半到12点，我已经去上过一堂课了，感觉还不错，特来详细分享下。
有分的同学欢迎加分哈。

那天加我学生共5人，教职员就有3人！一个和善的老太太老师，一个帅哥助手，还有另一老太太帮忙带着两个来上课学生的俩孩子玩儿。
他们也真是太好太周到了！感动啊~~~

我的英语在学生里面算是最好的了，当然我来澳洲的时间肯定也比他们长得多哈。
老师问我主要想学听说读写哪方面？她会根据同学们不同的程度来教，尽量让我们都能学到东西。
我说全方位都行啊，要说最主要呢我还是想扩大单词量。

具体说下那天我们的学习内容。
首先是语法，关于反义疑问句的,很简单的，我做的题都是全对。
句子类型有两种，先是否定，后是肯定的。
用am is are do does填空，如：
1. This isn't your pen, ____ it?
2. You don't want this book, ____ you?
3. She doesn't smoke, ____ she?

先是肯定，后是否定的。如：
1. They walk to work, ____ they?
2. Anna is from Sweden, ____she?
3. It's lovely day, ____ it?

接下来继续语法学习，仍是很简单。
用who which填空。如：
1. My computer ____ is quite old, is still working well.
2. I spoke to the person ____ is in charge of the Bank. He is called the Manager.
3. I saw the cat ____ belongs to our neighbor.

接下来是关于完成时里经常出现的时间段和时间点的问题。
用for since填空。如：
1.____ a week
2.____Easter
3.____3:30pm
4.____ ages (meaning: a long time)
5. _____ 1990

然后老师发下来一张纸条，上边有这些单词：deprived, deputy, derail, derelict, dermatitis, descend,describe,deserted, deserves, design, desire, desk,despair。
让我们做填空题，如：
1. I hope I won't be ____ of the opportunity to work.
2. The ____ principal is the teacher who is responsible for discipline.
3. Abandoned buildings look rather neglected and _____.

我不认识的有deprived, derail, derelict, dermatitis, deserted。你呢？
dermatitis这个单词很有用啊，以前学幼儿教育时老师常说这个词，这次查字典终于知道了：皮炎。

再接下来呢，老师说：下周，也就是4月25的周四大家别来上课，因为是公众假期，ANZAC DAY。
来澳洲几年了，我知道ANZAC DAY会放假，知道是纪念战死军人的，知道还有种脆脆的ANZAC饼干，知道街上会有挂满勋章的军人游行。。。。但一直不知道这个ANZAC DAY的具体来历，当然也是因为没去深究过哈。
那天，我们以做填空题的形式知道了ANZAC DAY的来历。

老师发的这篇短文填空题我错了1题，回家后我一个字一个字地敲下来发给我外甥女乔乔也来做，她错了3个。

我把题也copy到这里来吧，大家谁有兴趣的也可以来试试哈，看能全对不？

ANZAC Day(April 25) is when Australia and New Zealand (1)___ members of their World War I soldiers. ANZAC means Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. These (2)____ soldiers fought half way across the world in Turkey, where they landed in Gallipoli on April 25, 1915.

It was the first major(3)____ by Australian and New Zealand forces during the Great War. ANZAC Day is one of the most important holidays in the two countries. Schools and government offices (4)____. The day is also celebrated in some of the Pacific islands, (5)____ Tonga and Samoa. Church services are held in almost every town in Australia and New Zealand. There are also ANZAC Day parades in state capitals, which are televised (6)____.

April 25 is perhaps the (7)____ important day in the military histories of Australia and New Zealand. Their soldiers formed the (8)____ part of a plan to capture the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey and then Istanbul.

Winston Churchill created the plan to help British soldiers (9)____ the German Army. His idea was that victory in Gallipoli would open up the Black Sea to the British Navy. Churchill said the attack would provide a knockout (10)____ to Turkish troops. He was wrong. The (11)____ fighting lasted eight months. At the end of 1915, ANZAC forces were evacuated. Over 8,000 Australian and 2,700 New Zealand soldiers died. Their soldiers were welcomed home as (12)____and the first ANZAC Day was named in 1916。

     (a)          (b)             (c)         (d)
1.honour honouring honours honoured
2.bravery braving brave braved
3.fought fighting fighters fights
4.closure closed closing close

5.inclusive include including included
6.lively live living life
7.mast most must mist
8.main mainly mains mainland

9.win victory lose defeat
10.blow puff gust wind
11.salty sour sweet bitter
12.hero heroics heroes heroism

继续那天的课，接着就是给我们每人发一本圣经，让我们依次读一句里边的文字。
来源于圣经里的John 15 verse 13。
我不懂就问旁边的老师助手帅哥，verse啥意思？他耐心解释就是段落的意思。
老师选的这段圣经内容是跟ANZAC Day贴切相关的，保卫国家的战士牺牲自己对人民的爱，上帝对子民的爱。
里边的一句经典句子“Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

最后老师发给我们一页歌词，歌曲名称“no greater love"。
她说这首歌是当年墨尔本发生巨大山火时颂赞消防队员们的。

那天上课时间过得好快，很快就到12点了。
之前我还以为中途会有个morning tea的休息时间呢，还带了包日式茶点小饼准备去分享。
没时间吃放学时就给了老师们，感谢他们！

很想知道圣经英文版的文学水平如何？或者文字水平如何？

blackswan

没分，口头感谢

马二小

楼主，不好意思岔开正题， 俺可能今天下午在W村牙医诊所可能看到你家老外了。

我正在埋单呢。突然一人闪进来，然后诊所的receptionist 很熟地跟他打交道：Jxxx，你稍等一下。俺就顺便瞄了一眼，觉得这人怎么这么眼熟啊。

然后俺想起来，好像你贴过的照片里的人。哈哈

如果我猜对的话，楼主你千万别跟你家老外说哈，别让他觉得我们中国人这么八卦creepy 哈哈哈。

另外，我也想去教堂练英语。有偏重口语的么？

melbourneyoung

不错呢
