【父親節之回信】
父親節快樂!
放心,大將軍雖然愛心爆棚,但係未做父親住。
大家咁記唔記得上次喺街站寫信比黎智英嘅八歲Avery小朋友?
佢好有心,寫咗封信比大將軍,喺度同大家分享一下佢哋兩個封信❤️ 大將軍仲拜託小編要贈書俾呢位小朋友!

吳文遠叔叔:
你好!吳文遠叔叔。我們曾經見過一面。不知你記不記得?我是上次八歲的Avery。對了,你上次叫我多看書,我其實平時都喜愛看小說,什麼《魔幻偵探所》等等,我都非常喜愛看呢!不知道你喜愛看什麼書?記得回信給我啊!對了,聽說你也讀了很多書呢!請你下次教我英文吧,我在這方面比較弱呢!😆😆😆
今天寫到這裏了,再見,拜拜!
一齊撐住,香港人在支持你!!!
Avery敬上

Avery 小朋友:
你好呀!我超開心收到你的信。我當然記得你。我都很愛看書,我現在每天都有五六個小時看書呢。但我和你剛好相反,我的中文不是很好,所以我看比較多英文書。看到我的手寫中文字就知道,你寫得比我還好看呢。如果你想學好英文不如我寫英文信給你吧。
I love reading novels too. I have finished reading three thick novels already while I’m in the prison. When I was a kid I love reading a very funny novel called “a hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy”. It is an adventure story in space. I have asked my friend to help get a book and give to you as a gift. Hope you will like it. Don’t worry if it is too difficult. Read it slowly. Tell me how much you can read.
Thank you again for your letter. I will see you soon.
努力學習,加油! ! !
大Avery敬上

#電影英文筆記
#C式練英文法
昨天在Netflix上看「Marriage Story(婚姻故事)」這部電影,
誰看過?舉手舉手!
我相信每個人一定都有自己鍾愛的一段,
我自己最愛的是開頭,
兩人各自寫了一段喜歡對方的部分,
(目的是什麼我不能說,因為會小爆雷…)
因為太喜歡這段了,所以看完之後決定用這段當作今天練英文的素材。
看起來好長一段,但相信我,當下在聽打的時候真的一點都不感覺無聊冗長,只覺得怎麼這麼簡單的文字、簡短的話,但卻這麼深刻,真的太扣人心弦了!
我自己練習的步驟:
關掉字幕一句一句聽打出內容 ->對照英文看有沒有錯,順便用自己的話理解 -> 對照中文,加深裡面出現的idioms / slang 的印象 -> 抄寫其中很愛的幾句在英文筆記本裡(因為聽打的階段我是用電腦打字)
常常在聽打的時候,就會很驚訝發現,
天啊!這句話我以為很難講耶,沒想到竟然用這麼簡單的字就可以表達這麼好!
這種「WOW~太神奇了吧!」就成為每次我在練習時的樂趣,呵呵~
例如
She always knows the right thing to do when it comes to difficult family shit.
difficult family shit – 翻譯是翻「嚴重的家庭危機」,但我更喜歡自己的詮釋「跟家庭/家人有關的鳥事」
很多人看到「家庭危機」一定直白想到什麼crisis / issue 甚至 problem之類的,是也可以啦,但family shit就更口語表達這種”shitty things”,滿可愛的耶!
She’s always inexplicably brewing a cup of tea that she doesn’t drink.
Inexplicable / inexplicably – 中文解釋是「無法解釋、令人費解的(地)」,之前一直覺得這個字好像都用在比較文鄒鄒的地方,沒想到在這裡可以當做「她總能神奇地泡好一杯茶,雖然她自己不喝」,有點這種「我真的搞不懂她欸」的感覺。
I get stuck in my ways, and she knows when to push me and when to leave me alone.
Get stuck in my ways – 翻譯雖然是翻「裹足不前」,但平常我們講話真的很少用這個成語呀!所以我自己詮釋是「我自己卡關、猶豫不決很想逃避的時候」
Leave me alone – 字面上解釋是「不要管我讓我一個人獨處或是你走開啦」,但語氣比較平和地講的時候也可以表達「可以讓我靜一靜嗎?/ 給我一點時間冷靜好不好?」
She always says when she doesn’t know something, or hasn’t read a book, or seen a film or a play, whereas I fake it and say something like “I haven’t seen it for a while”.
(她不知道的事情或是還沒看過的書、電影或戲劇,她就會老實說沒看過,不像我會裝懂的說「我很久沒看了」。)
這句我自己講的話一定會分很多句才能表達清楚…自己也做筆記學起來
分享我很喜歡的這段原文吧!
(這段是Charlie 講 Nicole 的部分,若對於 Nicole 講 Charlie 的部分也有興趣的話,
留言跟我說喔!)
What I love about Nicole…
she makes people feel comfortable about even in front of embarrassing things. She really listens when someone is talking. Sometimes she listens too much for too long.
She’s a good citizen.
She always knows the right thing to do when it comes to difficult family shit. I get stuck in my ways, and she knows when to push me and when to leave me alone.
She cuts all our hair.
She’s always inexplicably brewing a cup of tea that she doesn’t drink. And it’s not easy for her to put away a sock, or close a cabinet, or do a dish, but she tries for me.
Nicole grew up in LA around actors, and directors, and movies and TV, and is very close to her mother, Sandra and Cassie, her sister.
Nicole gives great presents.
She is a mother who plays, really plays. She never steps off playing or says it’s too much. And it must be too much some of the time.
She’s competitive.
She’s amazing at opening jars because of her strong arms, which I’ve always found very sexy.
She keeps the fridge over-full. No one is ever hungry in our house.
She can drive a stick.
After that movie, All Over The Girl”, she could’ve stayed in LA and been a movie star, but she gave that up and do theater with me in New York.
She’s brave.
She’s a great dancer, infectious. She makes me wish I could dance.
She always says when she doesn’t know something, or hasn’t read a book, or seen a film or a play, whereas I fake it and say something like “I haven’t seen it for a while”.
My crazy ideas are her favorite things to figure out how to execute.
She’s my favorite actress.
how to read a book中文 在 Jay的跑步筆記 Facebook 的最佳解答
“You wrote a book? Who's going to read it?" When asked by the 3-time U.S. Olympic Team Trials qualifier, Caitlin, I was speechless for a moment.
I met Caitlin (well, she caught me on the trail) back in 2016 when I was running 2:45~2:50 marathons, making me an absolutely perfect training partner for her. She was way faster than I was during that time, and I literally learned the race "Olympic Trials" from her. If you listen to how she described the race, you almost think it's just another Boston Marathon.
"Yeah I ran it in 2012, and I qualified again." Caitlin called herself a sub-elite runner, making me wondering if I can call myself as a sub-sub-sub-elite?
Anyway, in 2019 she ran Boston with 2:40:27, making her 3rd qualifier in 8 years. After Boston I got to take a long rest because she also did the same, until 2020 Olympic Trials is around the corner.
"Hey Jay, you wanna run tomorrow?"
"Hey Jay, what's your workout next week?"
"Jay, you got to train with me!"
It's been 2 big training cycles for me in 2019, and I was way too tired to start anything soon. With the daily greeting from her, I can't do anything but reply "But I might be too slow for you now" - which is totally the truth. I was also sick and sidelined for 2 weeks.
Being able to put some really nice training in the past few weeks, I finally feel like I can take her challenge again, so say yes to her next workout. Little did I know during the time I was resting and recovering, she did not settle and now is almost at her peak state.
Today's 3*3 miles on slightly rolling I made several attempts to break through, but she all caught me with ease. When we finally finished the workout, I was pretty happy about it.
"How do you feel?" I asked.
"Not really trying too hard." She answered.
Now I am heading back to Taiwan for a short vacation. But once I come back, Caitlin will be there waiting, and probably planning for something brutal again.

「嘿!為什麼你出了一本書啊,誰在看?」面對下個月即將要第三度參加奧運選拔賽*,橫跨 12 年的業餘菁英女子選手凱特琳的質問,我一時語塞。
*美國的奧運選拔賽標準採取的是 2016 年的舊制,也就是女子 2:45, 男子 2:19 以內可以報名。對於她來說,參加的實質意義大於真正勝出(畢竟職業組的實力強上一個級別),不過也是難得可以跟全美的菁英較勁的機會。
我跟她相識早在 2016 年,就是那個我跑在 2:45-2:50 之間,看起來很適合陪她練的時期,當然,那時候她的實力是遠遠高出我一截的。我也是從她口中才得知,有「奧運選拔賽」這種事,而她敘述的態度,就跟一般人跑波士頓馬拉松一樣正常。
「喔對呀,我跑過。嗯,今年我也合格了。」她把自己稱為「#業餘次菁英」,這樣的人在美國拉拉雜雜也是有幾十、一百個。嗚,我突然間覺得把自己稱為次菁英有點過頭了,有沒有機會改成 #次次次菁英 呢?
總而言之,在 2019 年她在波士頓馬拉松跑出 2:40:27, 連續三屆橫跨 8 年達標。在那之後我得以好好休息了很長一段時間,直到⋯⋯2020 奧運選拔賽就在眼前了。
「Jay,你明天練什麼?」
「Jay,你下禮拜練什麼?」
「Jay,陪我練!」
去年經歷了兩個大週期,我真是累到爆,只想好好躺著。面對她連珠炮式的追問,我只好說「誒⋯⋯我怕我跟不上你」(事實上也是真的),不幸中的大幸是這段過程中我還真的病了一場,所以順理成章躺了兩週。
過了幾週的訓練、恢復,我覺得現在準備好可以開始訓練了,於是答應了她今天的 workout.⋯⋯卻忘了我在休息的時候,她可沒閒著。她 PEAK 了!
今天的 3*4800m 跑在起伏步道上,我幾次試圖加速都被她臉不紅氣不喘的抓回來。但是最後完成了整組 workout, 我實在太滿意了!
「你感覺怎麼樣?」我問。
「呃,沒太用力,輕鬆?」她說。
下個月底她即將前往亞特蘭大參加選拔賽,而我只慶幸我可以先回台灣喘個一週,雖然到時候迎接我的,一定是更強的她⋯⋯。
