Unit 5 Languages around the World
Period 1 Listening and Speaking
If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart. 如果你用别人能理解的语言与对方谈话，那么谈话会进入对方的大脑。如果你用对方的语言与之谈话，那么谈话会进入对方的心里。 -- Nelson Mandela (纳尔逊·曼德拉， 前南非总统)
One language sets you in a corridor (通道) for life. Two languages open every door along the way.
——Frank Smith
一种语言为人生开启一条走廊，两种语言则使沿途处处有门。
——弗兰克·史密斯
If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.
如果你用别人能理解的语言与对方谈话，那么谈话会进入对方的大脑。如果你用对方的语言与之谈话，那么谈话会进入对方的心里。
-- 纳尔逊·曼德拉

English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neitherapple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French friesin France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.. We find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and a guinea pigis neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but ... hammersdon't ham (Richard Lederer)
