Lesson 167 The New Semester

Lesson 167
Dear children, students, parents and friends, hello. welcome to Stay tuned for Learning English with Andy.
新的学期开始了，你在新学期有什么打算呢？第一天放学后，爸爸也这样问Tom。这句话用英语来说就是：The new term has begun. What are your plans for the new term? Term就是学期，new term就是新学期。我们也可以说：new semester。Semester也是学期的意思。Tom在以前各学期的学习中在班上同学中学习成绩只是在中游，这学期他打算把自己的总成绩提升至前十名。于是Tom对爸爸说：This semester, I want to let my own grades rushed into top ten of my class.想必大家对top ten很熟悉，我们经常在广播里电视中听到看到这个词，top ten就是前十名的意思。Rush into就是冲入，例如：The couple saw him rush into the fire!这对夫妇看见他冲入火中。那么，亲爱的小朋友，你在新学期有什么打算呢？ What are your plans for the new term?好了，今天我们就学到这里吧。So much for today，I’m Andy. Thanks for your listening. see you tomorrow。
