Today Hannah is going in to talk to Ambers teacher to find out how her daughter has been doing at school.Amber是个让人头疼的孩子，我估计她老师肯定有一大堆苦水要倒。Teacher: Thanks so much for comin

2、g in to talk to me about Amber. There are some things about Ambers behavior I want to discuss with you.Hannah: Of course. Isnt my Amber just a little angel?Teacher: Your daughter is certainly very. special. However, there are a few issues that Id like to talk to you about.Hannah: What is it? Do you

3、want to put her on the honor roll?Hannah还以为Amber在学校是乖乖的小天使呢！不过，Professor Bowman, 什么叫honor roll?Professor: The honor roll is a list of the best students in class. If your child is on the honor roll, you can also say that he or she is an honor roll student.哦，honor roll就是优等生名单。Teacher: The honor roll?

4、Uh . no. Even though Amber is very bright, she has some serious behavioral problems we need to deal with.Hannah: Behavioral problems? What are you talking about? My little Amber would never misbehave.Teacher: Actually, Amber throws a temper tantrum whenever I tell her to do her work.Hannah: A temper

5、 tantrum? What does she do?Teacher: She throws all her books on the floor and screams. Its really disruptive for all the other students in class.瞧，真相大白了吧。老师说，Amber虽然很聪明，但是不听话，老师让她做功课，她就throw a temper tantrum, 这是什么意思呢？Professor: The word tantrum means an outburst of bad temper. If a child throws a te

6、mper tantrum, he or she is expressing anger through kicking, screaming or other immature ways.我知道了，就是耍赖，发小孩子脾气。Professor: Exactly. Throwing a temper tantrum is the same thing as throwing a fit. For example, I could say, My son always throws a fit when I try to put him to bed.Hannah: Oh my goodness!

7、Well. Ill give you a piece of advice: If Amber throws a fit, just give her whatever she wants. It always works for me.Teacher: Well you see, thats the problem. If you dont set rules for her to follow, she will never learn discipline. That would be a shame because she really has a gift for learning.H

8、annah: You think I need to discipline her more? How should I do that?Teacher: One thing you can do is to give her a time-out. If she misbehaves or is acting up, make her sit in one spot and dont let her leave until she behaves.Professor Bowman, 老师说Amber has a gift for learning是什么意思？Professor: Winnie

9、, if you say that someone has a gift, that means he or she has an extraordinary talent.所以老师意思是，Amber有学习天份，但需要严格管教。她告诉Hannah，如果Amber再act up - 捣蛋、耍脾气，就 give her a time-out-罚她反省。Teacher: I think this is really a textbook case of lack of discipline. If you set boundaries for her behavior, she will quick

10、ly learn what is acceptable and what isnt.Hannah: Alright, I will set boundaries. From now on when she throws food at her babysitter when I go out, she will have to take a time-out.Teacher: Thats exactly right. I think your babysitter will appreciate it, too.Hannah: That reminds me: I have to find a

11、 new babysitter for my sweet little Amber. Can you believe all the other ones have quit?Teacher: Yeah . Im completely shocked .Professor, 老师说Amber是textbook case of lack of discipline, 这是什么意思？.Professor: Here the word textbook is an adjective, meaning typical or a perfect example. For example, John sleeps until noon every day. He is the textbook example of a lazy teenager.哦，就是“典型的例子”。希望Hannah真能接受老师的建议，set boundaries-给Amber立点规矩。这次的美语三级跳就播送到这里。高考资源网版权所有，侵权必究！
