I was very sad when my friend Dennis moved to another country. We met four years ago in a music class. When we met each other, we just clicked. After a while I became to like him more. One day he asked me for my phone number. His voice was shaking and I wondered why. I gave him my number and he gave me his. Yet I never called because I was to scared to try.

　　Brian小结1：

　　美国日常生活中的一些非常简单的口语词汇一定要记住，因为不管你单词量有多大，如果很简单的单词在口语中表示什么意思都不知道，那么英语能力就像没有打地基的高楼一样，必将不长久。这里有一个"click"，一般做"滴答，滴答声"讲，但在口语中还有一个高级用法--"嘀咕，小声说"的意思，如：

　　①these two students were asked to shut up because they kept clicking all the time.

　　那两个学生一直在嘀嘀咕咕，被老师喝令闭嘴！

　　Later he had to switched to another class. I was very sad since he was so talented he was advanced to another class. He asked me if he should go. I told him he should when my heart didn't want him to leave. After he switched classes I rarely talked to him. I didn't even say hi anymore.

　　Brian小结2：

　　②switch转学

　　Emily has to switch to another city for her parents got their jobs changed.

　　由于父母变动工作，Emily必须转学到另一个城市。

　　Then later I found out he had moved to Korea. After I found that out. I wished I talked to him more.

　　My wish came true. I signed up for hotmail and decided to search for him. Oddly enough I found his profile. I then e-mailed him.

　　Brian小结3：

　　③sign up.注册

　　I signed up for ICQ and decided to learn English with the foreigners.

　　我在ICQ上注册了，希望通过和外国朋友聊天提高英文。

　　④profile.(网络英文用语)用户资料

　　from her profile in the OICQ I know that she is in the same city with me.

　　从她在OICQ上注册的资料我发现她和我其实是在同一个城市。

　　The next day I was on msn messenger, someone im me. It was him and I was so thrilled. I could feel my heart beating fast. We talked about the past. I told him how a burrito would remind me of the time we ate lunch together. I found out during our conversation, he had liked me. After I found that out, I couldn't help smiling the whole day.

　　We e-mailed each other for few months. Then I found out he wasshavingsa vacation in Hawaii. I was so happy he was coming here to Hawaii. I didn't meet him. I'm only a teen and I had no way of transporting myself there.

　　〖Brian精品句〗:

　　⑴I could hear my heart beating fast.

　　我感觉到自己的心跳在加速！

　　每一次进行翻译任务的时候，不管事前准备地如何充分，我总是感到自己紧张的能听见自己的心跳，包括去年做客新浪嘉宾前，我紧张的到厕所想要呕吐，但是后来我告诉自己，你应该可以自信一点的，然后就忘记了紧张的感觉，甚至后来到走的时候觉得时间居然这么短！

　　⑵burrito墨西哥玉米饼

　　真正的墨西哥玉米饼没有吃过，但是一次在上海一个有名的烤肉店吃过国产的玉米饼，美国朋友问我："this is Mexico Burrito? "，我说："no, this is not Mexico Burrito, this is Chinese Burrito."

　　He left back to his home after a few days. I wish I could met him.. Then later I was given a second chance. My mother told me about going to Korea for vacation in winter. I was surprised when she told me. It was supposed to be a cultural experience for me. I cried when she told me. I was so happy.

　　On the airplane I could only think about Dennis. Gosh I was weird for teen. Well anyway, I stayed at a very nice hotel. It was weird. The hotel end up being close to where dennis lives.

　　I e-mailed him and we planed to meet at the hotel in the lobby(大厅). I told I would sit by a white piano. While I waited for him, I drew the piano in my little sketch book. He then came a few minutes after with his dad and his sister at his side.

　　Brian小结4：

　　⑤Gosh! (口头禅！)

　　口头禅也分人的，不同人有不同的口头禅，一些人嘴里的口头禅在另外人看来可能听都没有听说过，这里的Gosh!也是如此，就像我们平日总是想学好英语一样，两个不同的美国人说的语言也完全不一样的，就好比余秋雨的中文口语和赵本山的中文口语的区别一样，你很难说哪一个更好，哪一个更"标准"？

　　⑥sketch book!写生簿

　　when I passed the garden along the river , I could see lot of students draw the river scenery in their sketch books.

　　当我沿着河穿过公园的时候，我看见很多学生在河边写生。

　　I guess they were both curious to find out who I was. I remember his dad telling Dennis," Welllet's go look and ask" Then I looked straight at Dennis and I saw him looked at me the same exact moment. It's like I knew that was him. His dad and his sister left him alone. I chatted with Dennis and couldn't believe how he changed in four years. He used to be a short guy wearing his glasses and his hair combed in half. Now he was taller, wearing contacts, and very handsome. We had a great time. He acted like a gentlemen and opened the taxi door. Also he payed for everything. I wasn't sure what our meeting would be called. He walked me to his house. I met his parents and then his dad drove me back to the hotel.

　　Dennis walked me back to the lobby. We stood there for while. I said goodbye to him. I didn't even hug him or anything. I still can't believe that. I wanted to so bad but I never have too guts to do it.

　　I left on the dec 31 back home. I'm glad I finally met him again. I've realized that Dennis is a very sweet guy. I will always love him and I hope he lives on well.

　　〖Brian精品句〗:
