Your Top 3 Fears When Speaking English (Job Interview, Speaking With A Teacher, IELTS Examiner).

In this episode we will talk about 【Words with“手” 】, you will learn how to say 【proficient，player，rival】 ect. 
--------------------------------------------------
It is recommended that you study in the following ways:
Step 1: Gist listening. Listen to get the main idea. (more times if necessary)
Step 2: Check the script and learn new words. 
Step 3: Listen and imitate as much as you can then retell the story.
Step 4: Write down what you hear if you want to practise writing.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。今天想带大家一起学学一些跟“手”有关的词。
大家都知道手是我们身体的一部分，有很多词都有“手”这个字，例如我们每天都在用的手机。你现在很可能就是把手机拿在手里，听着这集播客吧。我们有左手和右手，如果你习惯用右手，那你就是右撇子，相反，习惯用左手的人就是左撇子。我们有五根手指，分别是大拇指，食指，中指，无名指和小拇指。
还有很多带有“手”的词，其实不是真的手，而是指“人”，在某个方面很熟练或者专业的人。例如，歌手就是唱歌唱得很好，把唱歌当做工作的人。我们可以说“他是一名歌手。”选手，选择的“选”，就是被选择去参加比赛的人。我们可以说“有几百名选手参加了这次的比赛。”对手，对面的“对”，和你竞争的人就是你的对手。我们可以说“这次比赛他轻松打败了对手。”助手，帮助的助，就是帮助你做一些工作的人。我们可以说“有了助手以后，李经理没有以前那么忙了。”高手，高低的高，就是在某个方面很厉害的人。我们可以说“他是一名象棋高手，经常赢比赛。”
你还知道哪些和“手”有关的词？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
