GMP-2008년 2월 21일 목요일

Fast & simple

 

GMN

Over the past few years, the 53 year-old Ahmed Ibrahim set up more than 70 dates. His matches must have a job, and e-mail address, and they can’t be serial daters

 

/ date / fifty-three / job / address /

/ set up / match / serial (#cereal) / match maker /

 

Paraphrasing

Ahmed Ibrahim is a man who knows people.

In fact, he’s good at putting people together probably.

He finds out personal information about probably passengers in his car, in his taxi. And then he arranges his dates between them.

He sets people up on dates and matches.

However, there’re qualifications. These people must work, must have a job also must have an e-mail so that they can be contacted.

And please no Casanovas, no Playboys, these people can’t be serial daters

 

 

Screen English - Juno   

You are something else (you are not that thing) (you are special)

There’s Vanessa, you’d better go (There’s my wife, you’d better go)

What? Why?

Well, she hates when I sit around and watch movies and I don’t contribute.

I’ll handle this. (I’ll take care of this)

I'm really good at diffusing mom-type rage

No, Juno, no. seriously, you just don’t make it worse

 

You’d better watch out

 

 

POPs –   Hero

(The best female pop vocal)

 

There’s a hero if you look inside your heart  

You don’t have to be afraid of what you are

 

There’s an answer if you reach into your soul

And the sorrow that you know will melt away

 

And then a hero comes along with the strength to carry on

And you cast your fears aside and you know you can survive

 

So when you feel like hope is gone look inside you and be strong

And you’ll finally see the truth that a hero lies in you

 

It’s a long road when you face the world alone

No one reaches out a hand for you to hold

 

You can find love if you search within yourself

And the emptiness you felt will disappear 

 

Lord knows, dreams are hard to follow

But don’t let anyone tear them away

 

Hold on, there will be tomorrow in time, you’ll find the way

 

 

Talk, Play, Learn

It is said that failure is the mother of success, but if it continues you may break down.

 

Who are you talking to?

Who are you calling?

Who are you waiting for?

/ looking for / coming with / thinking about / buying this for / meeting after work / inviting to the party /

 

Who are you coming with? (Come with all of my girlfriends)

If possible I’ll come with my girlfriend.

 

Who are you meeting after work?

It’s none of your business

 

Let’s have some beer

Can you give me some more water?

/ rare / beer / bear / more / pure / sure /

 

Go bananas (#(informal) become mad or furious), go nuts, go bunkers,

You are going bananas, calm down.

When I won a prize at the competition I simply went bananas.

 

Not emotional

 

 

GMP song

I'm happy to be a student again

I'm ready to learn anything.

You can call me a GMPer now on.

I feel like a million bucks

We’d better listen to it together

You should try to enjoy studying English

Come on, it’s going to be worth it

Let us give it a try.
