100  介词短语(三) 面试 (interview)                                                               10/11/2014

今晨我女儿开车送我去“马可医院”检察手指痲痹疼痛试验时, 突然有一节圣经出现在脑里:  使徒行传二十章三十五节.  请让我恭敬的录下与各位网友分享.

³⁵ In everything I (Paul) showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said,  “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”

³⁵ 在一切事上，我(保罗)都给你们做了榜样：必须这样地劳苦做工来扶助软弱的人，并且要记住主耶稣自己说过的话：“ 施比受更加蒙福。”

请原谅编辑者迟了十天才发出这帖子. 我是软弱的人, 靠着主耶稣基督钉十字架所赐的新生命, 却是更加蒙福的人.  能做的一切事上, 我都是必须喜乐的带着劳苦的来做, 在编写此博客的初衷是想让国内山区里的软弱的年青朋友有机会得得到一些帮助 (故用简体字发表), 岂不知我脑筋太单纯, 他们那里买得起电脑, 又那有钱进到网站.  亲爱的访友, 若你有心, 请自由的使用这博客的内容印成简单的小册子, 免费的想尽法子送到边远的山区软弱的青年朋友的手上.  主耶稣说：“ 施比受更加蒙福.” (若你需要资助, 请与我联系.)

英语语法的学习, 肯定可以助你学习英语, 但必须要有毅力, 有热忱及下功夫. 絶不可

有一曝十寒的心态. 关于学习 “关连字” 更要如此, 不可有三天打鱼, 两天晒网的敷衍

了事的心理, 必须持之以恒的与它缠斗.  尤其是要对一些常碰到的关连字的运作更

是需要下一番功夫, 天天反复的去读, 去背,  去写和做练习, 直至把它们熟练的做到

得心应手的地步才行.  这就是编辑者为什么在99讲末后提出习题104的作业, 希望爱

好英语的青年朋友们要全力以赴, 对它们了解和使用要达到澈底的清楚.  这些关连

字是  up, on, at, of, to, with, through, by 等, 我会慢慢的以它们习惯性用法来加以介绍.

颜元叔教授提出他学习英语的心得说, “养成每天早上高声朗读的习惯. 因为语言有它的音乐节奏, 把它口头念出来对背书, 拼字和会话都有帮助.  初中, 高中生最重要的是每天早上起来或者晚上回家, 朗读英文半个小时. 读久了一方面背, 二方面练习发音, 三方面把握住了英文特有的旋律.”  编辑者也有过这方面的经验, 那是早在十五岁的少年时, 蒙恩师邓岳宗先生耳提面命的千叮万嘱的说, “早上起来一定要读半小时的英文会话.”  那时我们用商务印书馆所出版的  “ The English Echo” 会话课本.  一直维持到十年后考大学时都未停止, 受益无穷.  能进入台湾大学读书, 得力他老人家的谆谆告诫.  至今悟出它的道理与颜教授不谋而合. 因为, 若是你不会念, 那幺当你说出来时, 别人如何能听得懂？别人跟你交谈时, 发出来的音, 对你根本就没有意义, 因为在你的脑袋里根本没有这样的记忆库.  再举个亲眼见到的实例, 2006年我到南昌探亲, 下榻南昌师范大学的亲戚家, 早上六点半起身, 还没下完楼, 就听到悦耳的高声朗读英语的声音. 不只是初中和高中生要养成早上高声朗读的习惯.  连大学生也要养成早上高声朗读的习惯.  其后果是肯定的, 在学习英语的路上, 它与英语语法的学习是相辅相成.

   English,  you've learned essential English words by heart, you know your work 
        inside out.    What more could they ask for?
秀兰:       大成, 我恳定他们对你有深该的印象.  你学会正确的英语, 又全心的去记忆

一些常用的英语单字, 从里到外的知道你要去做的.  他们对你还有什幺要求呢?

Dachin: And I like people, too. That's important.

大成 :   并且, 我喜爱人们. 这很重要的.
