流行美语第269课：上课不能玩手机 -（韦博分享） 流行美语第269课：上课不能玩手机 -（韦博分享） 李华告诉Larry说，经常有学生上课时间用手机。李华今天要学两个常用语，texting和txt tlk. LL: So, Li Hua, your students wont stop using their cell phones in class? That is so rude! It is really impolite to be texting when your professor is giving a lecture. LH: 你说的texting想必就是text messaging发短信的意思吧？ LL: Yes, Li Hua, texting is short for text messaging. And have to say I think it is rude for students to text in class. LH: 我也觉得在课堂上发短信是对老师的不尊重，所以我今天宣布，上课时间手机一律要关机。 LL: Thats a good class policy, Li Hua. I hope your students show you some respect and stop texting in class. LH: 我也希望他们上课不要再发短信了。可是我那些学生好像随时随地都在发短信。 LL: Yeah, a lot of young people do. I read a news report the other day that several states in the U.S. are thinking of banning teens from texting while driving a car. LH: 什么？有些高中生开车的时候都在发短信？太危险了！ LL: I know. I cant believe it myself. I cant imagine holding on to the steering wheel with one hand and texting with the other. LH: 一手握着方向盘，一手发短信，还要注意周围的路况。这简直不可能。 LL: I agree. Texting while driving is a bad idea. Actually, Li Hua, I dont text very often, do you? LH: 我有时会跟中国的朋友发短信联络，因为他们觉得这样可以练习英语。 LL: Texting to practice English is a great idea! But as for me, Id rather call my friends and talk to them than text them. LH: 我觉得这跟年纪有关。我妈就从来不发短信，我虽然有时发，但跟我的学生比，可差远了。 LL: Thats true. Say, how have your students reacted to your new No Texting policy? LH: 他们有点不高兴，但也知道上课发短信是不对的。 LL: So, Li Hua, what will you do if you catch someone texting in class now? LH: 这简单。被抓住上课发短信的，手机一律没收，下课来取。 LL: Whoa! I bet no one will be texting in your class again, Li Hua. ****** LL: So, Li Hua, since you text to your friends in China, have you learned about text talk? LH: 我也是刚知道text talk是怎么回事的。简而言之，text talk是一种特殊的短信语言，为了提高打字速度，对一些词进行简化。 LL: Right! Text talk is a language, and it has its own set of rules. LH: 我的学生都是这方面的专家，我从他们那儿学到了不少text talk的规则. LL: Really, Li Hua? Maybe you can teach me about text talk. As you know, I dont text very often. LH: 首先，打字的时候尽可能把元音字母省略掉。 LL: Like Text Talk is
