五个和改变有关的习语
Hello, I'm Emma from mmmEnglish!
In this lesson, I'll go over five common idioms that sound very similar, their meaning is also very similar.
大家好,我是Emma,欢迎来到Emma的美味英语!
在本节课程中,我们将会学习五个常用的习语,它们听起来非常相似,意思同样也非常相似。
They're all about change. But the way that we use each of them in English is a little different.
它们都是关于改变的。但是我们在英文中使用它们的方式有一点点不同。
In some of my previous lessons like this one, I explained why idioms are important and what strategies you can use to learn them and remember them.
Idioms can be a little tricky to learn, but they're fun to use and they definitely make English more interesting and more entertaining.
在我之前的一些类似的课程中,我解释过为什么习语这么重要,以及你可以使用什么策略来学习和记忆这些习语。
习语学起来可能有点点复杂,但是使用它们是非常好玩的,而且它们能够让英文更加有趣,更加生动。
This lesson is an advanced lesson, one that will teach you the subtle differences between some very similar idioms.
It will help you to use them correctly and sound more natural like a native English speaker.
本节课程是高级课程,它能够教会你相似的习语之间细微的差别。
它能够帮助你正确地使用它们,而且听起来更加自然,更加像英语母语者。
Now my advice with learning idioms is always to think about a situation in your own life where the meaning of the idiom is relevant so you can associate the idiom with a memory or an experience that you have.
It's gonna help you to remember the idiom but it will also mean you can use the idiom whenever you talk about that memory or that experience in English.
好的,我给大家的学习习语的建议永远是想象在你生活中和这个习语的意思有关的场景,这样的话,你就可以将习语和你的一段记忆或者是一段经历相联系。
这能够帮助你记忆习语,但是这也意味着你只要你用英语谈论那段记忆或者经历的时候,你都可以使用这个习语。
Super cool, right? Okay, so in this lesson, we're focusing on idioms with the word 'change'.
听起来很棒,是吧?好的,所以呢在本节课程中,我们专攻和改变有关的习语。
Now something my dear dad used to tell me is that change is the only constant in life.
It's the one thing that stays the same.
我亲爱的爸爸曾经告诉过我的一件事情是,生活中处处充满改变。
只有改变才是永远不变的。
Everything around us is changing. Our lives change, we change.
我们周围的一切都在改变。我们的生活在改变,我们也在改变。
So these idioms are super relevant and helpful so that you can express yourself.
When we move to a new house or we start a new job, we meet new people, things change.
所以这些习语和我们的生活息息相关,也非常有用,能够帮助你表达你自己。
当我们搬到新家或者是开始一份新工作的时候,当我们遇见新的人,事情都在改变。
As we grow older, we change.
As certain things happen in our lives, we also change.
当我们慢慢长大的时候,我们在改变。
我们生活中发生不同的事情,我们也在改变。
Change isn't always easy but being able to talk about it in English should be.
So let's start with 'to change your mind'.
改变并不总是很简单的,但是能够用英文来谈论改变应该是很简单的。
所以让我们以“改变心意”开始吧。
Now it's a common one, one that you've probably heard before.
It's used when you make a decision or you form an opinion that's different to the one that you first had.
这是个非常常见的习语,你可能以前早就听说过。
当你做决定的时候,或者是形成一个和之前的观点不同的想法的时候,都可以使用这个习语。

When I first met Paul, I thought he was odd but now that I've got to know him a little better, I've changed my mind!

Perhaps about a holiday or maybe even your plans for the weekend.
Perhaps you've changed your mind about somebody, you've changed your opinion about them.
可能是关于一次假期,或者是你对周末的计划。
可能你改变了对于某个人的看法,你改变了对他们的想法。
If you can think of something, tell me about it, write a sentence in the comments so I can check it for you.
Maybe you always wanted to study in America but now you've decided you want to study in Australia.
如果你能想到的话,那就和我说说吧,在评论中造个句子,我就可以给你检查啦。
可能你一直想去美国学习,但是现在你决定你想去澳大利亚学习。
Perhaps you've changed your mind. So that was 'change your mind'.
可能你改变了主意。那就是“改变心意”。
What about 'to change your tune' or a 'change of heart'? 'a change of scene'? 'a change of pace'?
Now all of these idioms are similar but the way that we use them is slightly different, something that you need to understand and you need to pay attention to if you want to sound natural when you're speaking English.
那“改变看法”、“改变心意”、“改变环境”和“改变习惯”呢?
所有的这些习语都很相似,但是我们使用它们的方式是有细微不同的,如果你想让自己说的英语更加自然的话,有些方面你需要理解并且关注。
'To change your tune' is usually used when someone's opinion changes or someone's behaviour changes and usually it's from a negative to a positive one.
So imagine that you have a colleague who's been complaining about your boss for months.
当某个人的看法改变了,或者是某个人的行为改变了,一般是使用“改变看法”这个习语,它一般是从负面的方面转变到积极的方面。
想象一下你有一位同事,抱怨你老板好几个月了。
They don't get on well together, they disagree on most things and your colleague can be quite stubborn about it.
But suddenly, your colleague comes into the office and starts saying that your boss is really nice and that he's really great to work with.
他们相处并不融洽,他们在大多数事情上看法都不一致,而且你的同事非常固执。
但是突然之间,你的同事走进办公室,开始说你的老板人超级好,和他一起工作非常愉快。
He even goes and gets him a coffee every morning and you think "You've really changed your tune!"
They've changed their opinion and they've changed the way that they behave around this person.
他甚至每天早晨会去给他冲咖啡,你在想“你真的改变了看法啊!”
他们改变了他们的一些想法,以及对待这个人的方式。
This whole year I've been trying to convince Shah, my fiance, to go on a holiday and he's been saying "No, it's too expensive we can't afford it!"
But last night he came home and he said he wanted to buy tickets to Tokyo and I thought "Hmm he's really changed his tune."
整整一年我都在努力说服我的未婚夫沙阿去度假,但是他一直在说“不行,太贵了,我们负担不起啊!”
但是昨天晚上他回家之后告诉我他想买去东京的机票,我在想“呃,他真的改变了主意呢。”
His opinion about the holiday has completely changed. He's changed his tune.
他关于度假的看法完全改变了。他改变了主意。
Now 'a change of heart' is slightly different. You can see that it's treated like a noun phrase.
下面是“改变心意”,有一点点不同。你可以看到它是作为名字短语使用的。
It's always a change of heart and it's usually singular.
And this idiom is about a change in attitude.
永远都是“改变心意”,一般都是单数形式。
这个习语是关于态度改变的。
A change in the way that you feel about something.
So imagine that you found a dress and it's perfect to wear to your friend's wedding.
是你对于某件事情感觉的改变。想象一下你发现了一条裙子,穿去你朋友的婚礼非常合适。
It's gorgeous, you love it, but you're not sure if it's going to go with the shoes that you've already got at home.
You're not sure if you should buy it.
它超级超级华丽,你超级喜欢它,但是你不确定和家里的鞋搭不搭。
你不确定是否应该买这条裙子。
But the shop assistant says "If you have a change of heart, you can return it tomorrow."
Now be careful that you don't use this idiom in the same way as the previous ones.
但是店员说“如果你改变心意的话,明天可以再来的”。
注意哦,这个习语的使用方式和前一个不太一样。
You can't say "He changed his heart" or "I changed my heart".
It doesn't work, it's not the same, it sounds a bit weird.
你不能说“He changed his heart”,或者是“I changed his heart”。
这不行的哦,这并不是相同的,听起来有点点奇怪。
It's usually used with the verb 'have'. He had a change of heart.
它一般都是和动词“have”一起使用。他改变心意了。
She will probably have a change of heart.
I still remember when I was eighteen years old and I moved out of my family home.

我还记得当我十八岁的时候,从我父母家里搬出来。
I was moving into an apartment with some friends in the city and as I was saying goodbye to my parents, I started feeling really sad that I was leaving so my mum said, "Well if you have a change of heart and you decide to move back home, you'll always be welcome." which made me feel a lot better about leaving.
Now speaking of moving house, we have our next idiom, 'a change of scene' or 'a change of scenery'.
我和父母告别,和我的一些朋友搬进了城市里的另外一个公寓,我开始真正地感觉到有点伤心,因为这次是真的离开了,所以我的妈妈说“如果你改变心意,想要搬回家的话,我们一直向你敞开怀抱”,这句话让我对离开这件事情不那么伤心了。
好的,说到搬家,那让我们聊聊一个新的习语吧,那就是“改变环境”。
And this idiom is used when you move to different surroundings, you know, a different environment.
It could be used to talk about where you live or where you work.
当你搬到不同的地方,就是全新的环境中的时候,就可以使用这个习语。
当谈论你居住的地方和你工作的地方的时候,就可以使用这个习语。

A change of pace is used in a similar way.
It talks about a change from your normal, daily routine, so you can use it to say that you need to try something different for a while.
“改变习惯”的用法也差不多。
它说的是改变你例行的日常,所以你可以使用这个习语来说你需要一下不同的东西。
A change from what you're used to.
If you're not feeling very inspired by English these days or very motivated to practise, perhaps you need a change of pace.
