triangle Sentence Building (Summary) 문장 만들기 Construção de sentença Construcción de oraciones [ ? ]

Summary

This activity is designed to improve sentence accuracy and complexity. Most students can produce the key content words in a sentence. However, they have difficulty with accuracy because the functional words are difficult or can seem unimportant. This activity will help learners eliminate problems with these functional words by giving them immediate feedback on the mistakes they are making. It will also help students develop their use of more natural, varied and complex sentence structures.

TIP: Say the sentence out loud. Notice the types of mistake you make often. Focus on those types of errors. (singular/plural, subject-verb agreement, article use, prepositions, gerunds and infinitives, noun clauses, adjective clauses, word order, and word forms.)

Resumen

Esta actividad está diseñada para mejorar la precisión y complejidad de las oraciones. La mayoría de los estudiantes pueden producir las palabras clave del contenido en una oración.

También ayudará a los estudiantes a desarrollar su uso de estructuras de oraciones más naturales, variadas y complejas.

CONSEJO: Diga la oración en voz alta. Observe los tipos de errores que comete con frecuencia. Concéntrese en ese tipo de errores.

triangle Listen & Repeat 듣고 따라하기 Ouça e repita Escuchar y repetir [ ? ]

Listen & Repeat


This activity has two purposes.

The first purpose is to improve listening accuracy. Learners can often understand the general meaning of a video but still not hear and understand many of the words that are said. This is because native speakers tend to say the functional words unclearly. (eg. don’t know, going to, want to, can’t, must have) This activity is designed to help learners improve their ability to hear these words.

TIP: Learners should listen, and then try to repeat exactly what they hear. Then they should click “Show” and read the sentence. After reading the sentence, learners should listen again and try to hear each word.

The second purpose is to improve pronunciation.

TIP: Learners should listen to and read the sentences at the same time. Then learners should try to copy the pronunciation and intonation of the speaker exactly.

TIP: Exaggerating the intonation and feeling of the speaker is useful. It may feel awkward or funny, but it will help you sound more natural.

Escuchar y Repetir

Esta actividad tiene dos propósitos separados.

El primer propósito es mejorar la precisión auditiva. Los estudiantes a menudo pueden comprender el significado general de un video, pero aún no escuchan ni comprenden muchas de las palabras que se dicen. En particular, los hablantes nativos tienden a decir las palabras funcionales (p. Ej., No sé, voy a, quiero, no puedo, debe haberlo hecho) de manera poco clara. Esta actividad está diseñada para ayudar a los alumnos a mejorar su capacidad para escuchar estas palabras.

CONSEJO: Los alumnos deben escuchar y luego intentar repetir exactamente lo que se dijo. Luego deben hacer clic en "Show" y leer la oración. Después de leer la oración, los alumnos deben volver a escuchar e intentar escuchar cada palabra.

El segundo propósito es mejorar la pronunciación.

CONSEJO: Los alumnos deben escuchar y leer las oraciones al mismo tiempo. Luego, los alumnos deben intentar copiar la pronunciación y la entonación del hablante.

CONSEJO: Es útil exagerar la entonación y el sentimiento del hablante. Puede parecer incómodo o divertido, pero te ayudará a sonar más natural.

듣고 따라하기

이 액티비티에는 두 가지 목적이 있습니다.

첫 번째 목적은 청취 정확도를 높이는 것입니다. 학생들은 종종 비디오의 일반적인 의미를 이해할 수 있지만 여전히 많은 단어를 듣고 이해하지 못합니다. 특히 원어민은 기능적 단어 (예 : 모르겠다, 갈 것, 갖고 싶어, 가질 수 없어야 한다)를 불분명하게 말하는 경향이 있습니다. 이 액티비티는 학습자가 이러한 단어를 듣는 능력을 향상시킬 수 있도록 고안되었습니다.

팁 : 학습자는 듣고 나서 말한 내용을 정확하게 반복해야 합니다. 그들은“Show”를 클릭하고 문장을 읽어야 합니다. 문장을 읽은 후 학습자는 다시 듣고 각 단어를 들어야 합니다.

두 번째 목적은 발음을 향상시키는 것입니다.

팁 : 학습자는 동시에 문장을 듣고 읽어야 합니다. 그런 다음 학습자는 화자의 발음과 억양을 따라 해 보아야 합니다.

팁 : 화자의 억양과 느낌을 과장하는 것이 유용합니다. 어색하거나 재미있게 느껴질 수 있지만 더 자연스럽게 들리는 데 도움이 됩니다.

Ouvir e repetir


Esta atividade tem dois propósitos.

O primeiro objetivo é melhorar a precisão auditiva. Os alunos geralmente podem entender o significado geral de um vídeo, mas ainda não ouvem e entendem muitas das palavras que são ditas. Isso ocorre porque os falantes nativos tendem a dizer as palavras funcionais de forma pouco clara. (por exemplo, não sei, vou, quero, não posso, devo ter) Esta atividade é projetada para ajudar os alunos a melhorar sua capacidade de ouvir essas palavras.

DICA: os alunos devem ouvir e tentar repetir exatamente o que ouviram. Em seguida, deveriam clicar em “Mostrar” e ler a frase. Depois de ler a frase, os alunos devem ouvir novamente e tentar ouvir cada palavra.

O segundo objetivo é melhorar a pronúncia.

DICA: os alunos devem ouvir e ler as frases ao mesmo tempo. Em seguida, os alunos devem tentar copiar exatamente a pronúncia e a entonação do falante.

DICA: É útil exagerar na entonação e no sentimento do falante. Pode parecer estranho ou engraçado, mas ajudará você a soar mais natural.

triangle Script 대본 Roteiro Texto


Mitchell: Oh, good. You're up. It is such a beautiful day. Let's go have brunch somewhere outside where I can wear my new sunglasses, huh? Ew, gross! What happened to you?

Cameron: I don't feel good. I'm hot. Now I'm cold.

Mitchell: Oh, no.

Cameron: And we have that concert tonight.

Mitchell: I know, but, honey, that's the furthest thing from my mind, okay?


Mitchell: Why me?! We had amazing seats for Lady Gaga, and he gets sick. I'd been looking forward to that concert for months. It's the one gay cliché I allow myself.


Mitchell: Do you want me to move the waste basket closer to you?

Cameron: Oh, no. It's fine where it is. Thank you for taking care of me.

Mitchell: Well, what else would I be doing?

Mitchell: Um, seeing Lady Gaga, that's what.

Mitchell: So, uh, Cam, you know, I hate to bring this up, but what are we going to do about that concert?

Cameron: What do you mean?

Mitchell: Well, you know, we were both looking forward to going. You were looking forward to going. I was really looking forward to going. And I just... I-I hate to see those tickets go to waste.

Cameron: I know, I know.

Mitchell: But what are our options? We could both go to the concert. That's not going to happen. Uh, well, we could sell the tickets online. Oh. But there's that Craigslist Killer. Oh, what to do? What to do? What to do? What to do? What to do? Other options, other options.

Cameron: Mitchell, are you hinting that you want to go to that concert without me?

Mitchell: No! No! Not in a million years! But that's very sweet of you to offer.

Cameron: I didn't offer.

Mitchell: Oh, really? 'Cause that just seems like something that you would say. "You go, I'll be fine. You spent all the money on the tickets, and I'm just going to lie in bed anyways." That's classic Cam.

Cameron: I'm just so weak.

Mitchell: Okay, good. You know what? It's settled. We're just going to put this whole "you insisting I go to the concert without you" thing behind us.


Mitchell: Can we get back to me?

Claire: What?

Mitchell: Does it make me a horrible person. I kind of want to go without him?

Claire: Well, how sick is he?

Mitchell: I don't know. He's sick. You know, they're not going to make a lifetime movie about him.

Claire: Well, what's he like when you're sick?

Mitchell: Cam, I think I can walk to the kitchen.

Mitchell: He's okay.

Claire: You should go. You know what I learned today? You can't wait around for somebody to give you something you want. Sometimes you just have to take it.

Mitchell: Oh, I'm going to feel so guilty, though.

Claire: You'll resent him if you stay. Okay, how about this. You stay home and take care of him... soup, foot rubs, you blow his nose.

Mitchell: Ew.

Claire: He's so lucky to have you. And then tonight, right before the concert, you say, "Cam, I love you, but I really want to go." He'll say fine. You drop Lily off at our house, and it's great.

Voice: Drivers, start your engines.

Claire: I'm putting you on speaker.

Mitchell: What are you doing?

Claire: Making my kids love me!

Voice: Drivers, ready. Three, two, one!


Mitchell: I spent all day nursing Cam.

Cameron: Ohh. Hey, could you do the right one now?

Mitchell: You mean the one we started with? Sure.Mitchell: I made soup. I made tea. Finally, it was the moment of truth.

Mitchell: Cam, you know, I was thinking that...


Cameron: Going somewhere?

Mitchell: Cam! You're up.

Cameron: Didn't count on that, did you? Are you dropping Lily off at your sister's, or is she taking my ticket?

Mitchell: Okay, first of all, how are you standing? You drank enough of that cough syrup to put down a grizzly.

Cameron: I'll tell you what's grisly. That is your behavior. Well, it's just a good thing I'm finding out now, instead of when I'm old and sick and really need you.

Mitchell: Okay, Cam, no, you're right. You're right. I have no defense. I am terrible. And the thing is, I knew I was terrible, and I was going anyway. I think maybe I tried to justify it by saying we're two different people. And you're more of a caregiver, and I have other strengths. And that's what makes us such a good couple, you know? But, no, no. It's a cop-out. And I've been very selfish, and I need to do better, and I will. I swear on Lily's diaper bag.


Cameron: Oh. Well... I must have dozed off.

Mitchell: Yeah, you were out for quite a while.

Cameron: What have you been up to?

Mitchell: I've just been sitting here, watching you.

Cameron: Well, I'm going to go to bed.

Mitchell: Okay.

Cameron: Thanks for staying home with me.

Mitchell: Well, you know, in sickness and in health, right?

Cameron: You're still blinking, sweetie.

Mitchell: Oh, no. Oh, gosh. Well, this is... this is funny. I'm going to tell you the funny thing about why this is...
