这周备课读了一篇关于足球的文章,在网上找同话题的补充材料,又浏览了几篇女足世界杯话题的,一起看看其中一篇开头这段的指代。
Get your green and gold on – the Matildas are ready to kick off at the FIFA Women’s World Cup tonight in Sydney.
Green and gold 是澳大利亚的national colours,也是澳大利亚运动员参加国际赛事的运动服颜色。Get your green and gold on是穿上国家队战袍的意思。
Matildas 是对澳女足队员的称呼,男足队员是Socceroos。几篇系列报道,都用Matildas来指代女足队。后面再提到,用了the national team。
指代词不仅仅是 he, she, they, you, we 等等,用不同的词或词组指代同一人/事/物,行文变化丰富一些。
新闻报道中,常常会用首都指代某个国家或国家政府。
Think Routine 介绍一下Step In, Step Out, Step Back,帮助我们理解不同的观点。
Step In: What do you think this person might feel, believe, know, or experience?
Step Out: What would you like or need to learn to understand this person’s perspective better?
Step Back: What do you notice about your own perspective and what it takes to take somebody else’s?
阅读中,在这几周介绍的Thinking Routine 里面挑一个尝试。
Happy reading!
