用Yahoo知道英語(yǔ)“等紅燈”怎么說(shuō)？

我們學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)最重要的一個(gè)“學(xué)習(xí)技能”(學(xué)習(xí)力)就是會(huì)用Yahoo“求證”。

比如，有人對(duì)你說(shuō)英語(yǔ)“等紅燈”說(shuō)wait for the red light是錯(cuò)的。

既然他說(shuō)wait for the red light是錯(cuò)的，那么，我們?yōu)槭裁床恢苯佑脀ait for the red light這句英語(yǔ)到Y(jié)ahoo上“求證”一下，為什么只知道“等老師的正確答案”呢？

1) Yahoo wait for the red light，我們就會(huì)在Yahoo上看到大量“正確”的英語(yǔ)：

比如：Why You Wait Too Long at Red Lights, and What to Do About It

If the 'don't walk' signal(信號(hào)) has been there a little while, drive about a half-mile per hour over the speed limit to the next light, then continue at exactly the speed limit. You do not need to speed(加速); in fact, going over the speed limit will make you wait at a red light.

讀到Why You Wait at Red Lights沒(méi)有？

2) 我們現(xiàn)在需要用把學(xué)過(guò)的英語(yǔ)用起來(lái)，用英語(yǔ)學(xué)英語(yǔ)的方法“學(xué)習(xí)”這個(gè)正確的說(shuō)法：

1. Okay.I got you.If we are stopped by the red light,we'll say：I'm waiting AT the red light,not FOR the red light.

2. We can also say：I'm waiting for the red light to change/turn to green light.

最關(guān)鍵的是通過(guò)使用英語(yǔ)I got you/When we say xxx,we mean/can also say xxxx等保持全程都在“說(shuō)英語(yǔ)”而不是把英語(yǔ)“翻譯”成中文來(lái)學(xué)。
