Teacher Joseph's Podcast

Famous Brits: The Life of Gertrude Bell.

1.	我認為，上帝造人有點過高估計了自己的能力。

（I think that God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.）

2.	永遠原諒敵人，沒有什麼能比這個讓他們更惱火。

（Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.）

3.	我什麼都能抗拒，除了誘惑。

（I can resist everything except temptation.）

4.	為了贏回我的青春，我什麼都願意做，除了鍛煉、早起、做個對社會有用的人。

（To win back my youth, there is nothing I wouldn't do - except take exercise, get up early, or be a useful member of the community.）

5.	年輕的時候，我以為錢是人生最重要的，現在我老了，我懂了，確實如此。

（When I was young I thought that money was the most important thing in life; now that I am old I know that it is.）

6.	人生中只有一件事比被人議論更糟糕，那就是：無人議論你。

（There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.）

7.	時裝是一種讓人無法忍受的醜陋，所以我們必須每六個月換一次。

（Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.）

8.	我們都在陰溝裏，但有些人在仰望星空。

（"We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars". ）

Domande personali

BOB: We’d like two tickets for the 3:30
show, please.
TICKET SALES: Here you go. Enjoy the movie!
[Inside the theater]
BOB: Would you mind moving over one,
so my friend and I can sit together?
WOMAN: No, not at all.
BOB: Thanks a lot!



LANGUAGE NOTES
• The 3:30 show Movies are shown at different times throughout the day. This refers to 
the movie that starts at 3:30. Notice the emphasis on 3:30.
• Enjoy the movie! Notice how the intonation rises on movie. This is said in a friendly 
way, and is followed by an exclamation point.
• Would you mind is a polite way to ask “Can you do something for me?” Notice the 
verb ends in “-ing.” Compare this structure to “Would you mind if I” plus a verb that 
ends in “-ed” (Would you mind if I opened the window?).
• Moving over one Here “one” is short for “one seat.”
• No, not at all is a way of saying “No, I don’t mind” or “I will be glad to.” Notice the 
answer to “Would you mind” is in the negative form.

كَانْ يَامَا كَانْ في قدِيمْ الزَّمَانْ
وفِي قَرْيَة بعِيدَة، طرِيقْهَا شدِيدَة، الرُّكْبَان إِلاَ قَصْدُوهَا يَعْيَاوْ، وَإِلَا مَاقَصْدُوهَا يَتَمَنَّاوْ، حِيثْ الاخْبَار لِّي تَوْصَلْ علِيهَا والْخِير لِّي فِيهَا، مَاتْخَلِّي حَدّ في دَارُ.
كَانْ في هَاد الْقَرْيَة واحَدْ الدَّرَّازْ(النَّسَّاج) راجلْ طَيِّبْ، القلبْ بيضْ كِيفْ كْلَمْةُ، وكلَامُ صَافِي مَتْقُونْ كِيفْ خدمْةُ، في الصِّيفْ يَنْسَجْ الْحَيْكْ وَالْمْخَابَلْ(سَتَائر تقليديَّة)، والْبَرْدْ يَنْسج الجْلاَلبْ والدّرَابلْ(رِدَاء ثَقيل)، وَكانْتْ عَنْدُ بنْتُ، وبنْتُ كَانْتْ صُورَة لبُوهَا في اخْلاقهَا ومنَاقبْهَا، الأمْ دَّاهَا(أخَذَهَا) الله وخَلاَّ لِيهَا ابَّاهَا.
بَعْدمَا رْعَاهَا فِي صْغُرهَا هِي اصبْحَتْ ترْعَاهْ.. وَبَنْتُ كَانْتْ عَمْيَة مِنْ زْيَادتْهَا، لَكِنْ عمَى البَصَرْ ما خْدَا منْهَا الْبَصِيرَة.
وبَعْْدمَا كَانْ بُوهَا بصَحّتُو، يدْرَزْ ويَاخُذْ مَا درَز لِلسُّوق، دَابَا(الآن) خَانْتُو الصَّحَّة اصبَح لِّي دَرْزُو، تَاخْذُو بـنْـتُ لِلسُّوقْ.
حمَارتهَا كَانْتْ عَارْفَة الطّرِيق، غِيرْ تَسْمَعْ «أرَّازِيدْ» تْشَدّ طرِيقْهَا، وغِيرْ توْقَفْ تْعَرَفْ بنْتْ الدَّرَّازْ أنَّهَا وَصلَتْ للسُّوقْ
