描述一次经历

💬

本期话题我们来描述一次经历。

假设你正在跟你老外朋友描述一次，你之前向一个陌生人借钱的经历。

你下楼后，看见一个大块头坐在桌子后面，看起来像个保安。

然后你走过去。【这里可以添加一些你当时的想法和感受，比如感到紧张之类的】

然后你走到他面前问他能不能借你一百块，然后他说不行啊，为什么要你钱。然后你道歉后转身就跑了。当时真的好尴尬。

不会组织语言的人说的：

I remember one time I wanted to borrow money from a stranger.

After going downstairs, I saw a tall man sitting behind a desk. He looked like a safety guard. I walked towards him and I was very nervous.

I asked if he could lend me 100 yuan. He said no and asked why. I just said sorry and I quickly went away. It was so embarrassed.

点评： 1、保安不是safety guard. 是 security guard

2、It was so embarrassed. 不对，是It was so embarrassing.或者 I was so embarrassed.

3、关于人物内心想法的描述太单薄了，这样讲故事就不够吸引人，可以参考下面的

And I was just walking and that was the longest walk of my life.

我走过去的那段路是我这辈子走过最长的路。

I could feel the hair on the back of my neck standing up. My palms were sweaty. My heart was pounding.

我能感觉到脖子后面的汗毛都竖起来了。我的手心出汗。我的心怦怦直跳。

I went up to him and I said, "Sir, can I borrow 100 dollars from you?" He looked up. He was like, "No. Why?" And I said, "No? Oh, I'm sorry." And I just turned around and I ran away. I was so embarrassed.

我走到他面前说：“先生，我能向你借 100 美元吗？” 他抬起头。他说：“不行。为什么要借？” 我说：“不行？哦，不好意思。” 然后我转身就跑开了。我太尴尬了。
