Lesson 9: Be thoughtful 为别人着想
Being thoughtful simply means thinking of others before yourself. What you say or do will have an effect on others. So it is important that you think before you say or do anything. In this way, you can avoid hurting others’ feelings. Moreover, a thoughtless act or remark can spoil a perfect relationship.
Remember these rules, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything, likewise, if you think what you do will hurt others, don’t do it. After all, what goes around comes around.
And you are just chatting but tell us what you are going to do today? Today we are going to talk about an article on page 58, we call this article be thoughtful.
Considerate = thoughtful = understanding 体贴的
-ate作形容词或名词时读[it]，作动词时读[eit]
In a group, whatever you do, you should think of others. = you should be thoughtful.
Children should be considerate of old people. 体谅
Bruce, everybody knows that you are stupid, so I know it’s very bad, so from now I’m not going to mention the word again. How thoughtless, you are thoughtless. 欠考虑的
Being thoughtful simply means thinking of others before yourself.
Learning English is worthwhile. 值得做的 动名词做主语或宾语
simply = just
Peter, don’t be so selfish. Think of others before yourself.
For example, when peter invites me to dinner, first he eats my plate of food, he thinks of others’ food first, so he eats off my food and then he eats his own food.
Mean: stay away from him, he is very mean. 凶暴的
You stay here simply means wasting your time.
I meant to help Bruce, but was turned down. 原想要，有意要 拒绝
When I say I mean to do it, I mean it. 我是说真的
When I said I love you, I meant it.
mean to = intend to = plan to 想要
mean doing 意味着
What you say or do will have an effect on others.
Have an effect on sb (sth) 对…有影响 effect = impact = influence
We now know that people have an impact on the whether. Why do you say so? Well, we now know that because there are so many people in the world, and we burn a lot of fuel, we are changing the atmosphere. So we are changing the whether. And we are causing a lot of pollution also. So to speak. 可以这么说
So it is important that you think before you say or do anything.
necessary = essential = important , advisable 后面的that从句要用should + 动词原型
It is important that he (should) be punctual. 准时，守时
It’s necessary that you (should) study hard.
In this way, you can avoid hurting others’ feelings.
In this way = this way 这样的话
To learn English, first of all, you should get a very good dictionary, and then try to read as much as you can everyday. In this way, you’ll master English.
For Bruce, Chinese is a piece of cake for him. = It’s a cinch.
Is it difficult to eat a piece of cake? No, it’s so easy. It’s a cinch. It’s a cinch means it’s very easy to do. 容易做的, 有把握的事情
Well, swimming is nothing, I can swim because everyday I keep on eating and now very fat, even though I don’t swim, I can float. Swimming is a piece of cake. Peter can float very well.
feeling 感觉 feelings 感情
That man has no feeling.
When she scolded me, she hurt my feelings.
Moreover, a thoughtless act or remark can spoil a perfect relationship. 言行
remark一句话 spoil = undermine = hurt 破坏
He makes a very interesting remark about me. 说了一句有趣的话
Remember these rules, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything,
Keep silent = remain silent silence n.
Good point, peter, many of my students say: keep silence. Silent is an adjective, silence is a noun.
remember sth in mind = bear sth in mind = don’t forget sth = remember sth
bear = keep bear, which means to keep, when use it as a verb.
keep my words in mind = bear my words in mind
Likewise, if you think what you do will hurt others, don’t do it.
by the same token = likewise 同样的, 出于同样原因 token 表示, 向征, 记号
Yesterday was a lousy day, by the same token, today doesn’t look any better.
Today isn’t any better.
lousy = bad 污秽的, 恶心的, 生虱的
What do you think of that story? That’s pretty lousy.
After all, what goes around comes around. 毕竟，善有善报，恶有恶报
What goes around, comes around. This is another way for us to say: whatever you do will come back to you. For example, the Chinese often say: if you plant melon seeds, you will grow melons. 种瓜得瓜
Do not expect too much of this child. After all, he is only five.
Substitution
What you say or do will have an effect on others.
What you ordered is not available.
What the child needs is love.
It is important that you think before you say or do anything.
It’s essential that you abide by these rules. 坚持, 遵守
It is advisable that he (should) see a doctor immediately. 可取的, 明智的
