31 我们赞扬儿童时最常用的话有：Isn’t he cute He is so cute. He is adorable. Beautiful baby! 逗一两岁的小孩时，人们常说：Peek-a-boo, I see you.给小孩说再见：See you later, alligator!
32 Yes, 这是现在的小学生都会的单词。但是大学英语专业的人有时也搞错，例如，对于对方的否定句表示赞同时，很多时候，很多人仍旧会回答yes，而不会说no。英语中表示同意的词很多，如果实在无法立马反应过来，不妨用其他的词。Absolutely, OK, you are right, exactly, certainly, yep, aye, just so, sure, right, correct, you said it. I agree with you, 常用的还有sweat, you bet。或者你可以说：I hear you.你说的我明白。说no的词也有好几个：nope, I don’t think so,等等。
33 有个人说：A 82 year-old man married a 28 year-old woman. That is the most bizarre thing that has ever happened recently. （一个82岁的老头娶了28岁的姑娘，这是近来最为离奇的事。）另一个人蛮有同情心，他可能会说：Well, age shouldn’t be something that comes in the way of a person’s marriage. As long as they love each other, age is not an issue.（嗯，年龄在婚姻中应该不是障碍，重要的是他们爱着对方，年龄不是问题。）bizarre是一个美国人喜欢用的词，意思是“稀奇古怪，不正常的”；That is a bizarre story.(这个故事太荒唐。) The nine-head-bird is really bizarre.（九头鸟是不可能有的事。）这是一句中国俗话，上、下联是什么呢？ comes in the way of 的意思是“成为绊脚石”。
34 有个朋友要我每到一地就给她写几个字，这英语的表达法可以用“drop me a line”： Don’t forget to drop me a line when you visit a new place. 我则可以回答：“Trust me. I won’t. I’ll keep you posted.”（没问题，我不会忘记的，我会随时让你知道我的近况。）post当动词用，则是“邮寄，转递”，keep someone posted意思是keep in touch with someone, or touch base with someone often。只是很可惜，现在的中国邮局大部分都不办理邮政业务，而是成为银行了，所以信也没法寄。Drop by的意思是，顺便访问（没有计划的那种访问。）Please drop by sometime for a drink. - I dropped by my best friend’s house to see if he was home. 不要朋友写信，就叫朋友打电话好了：Give me a buzz. or Give me a ring. 都可以。
35 上一篇中提到了一个词soul mate，是那种心灵感应的朋友，也可以用heart,例如说，sweat heart，但这指恋人或关系特别密切的人。a heart to heart chat很诚恳的沟通。I tried to have a heart to heart chat with him on this issue, but it didn’t work. 我费了一番力气想与他坦诚沟通，但没有什么用。
36 他喝醉了。英文有好些说法，很口语化的是：He is loaded. 就是drunk的意思。"When I talked to the president, he was loaded." Kissinger said about Nixon. 基辛格谈到尼克松时说：“我跟总统谈话时，他已经喝得烂醉。”under the influence of alcohol也是喝醉了的意思，但这是个法律词汇，意思是犯法了，尤其是在开车时，如果查出了司机是under the influence of alcohol则可能要坐牢。而drunk, loaded虽是醉酒，但不违法。很书面语的词汇是“intoxicated, intoxication”。写到这里，我想起了昆明巫家坝机场的一副广告：令人陶醉的地方--云南（大意），旁边的英语是：Intoxication: Yunnan. 这是典型的中式英语，外国人看了不知所云，听上去好像是云南人都是酒鬼一样。正确的英文应该是：The most attractive place: Yunnan;也可以说：Breathtaking scenery:Yunnan.
37 He is a little bit punchy. 如果一个人晚上睡眠不足，早晨起来睡眼惺忪的样子，我们可以说他punchy.所以可以接着说：He needs a cup of coffee to wake up. 一个人看上去云里雾里的样子都是punchy，与喝醉酒貌差不多。
38 与load还有一个相关的口语词：freeloading, 揩油，滥用别人的慷慨。My roommate won’t pay anything for the grocery. I end up feeding him three meals. I am really fed up with his freeloading.(他这样揩我的油我实在是受不了。)揩油的人就叫“freeloader”，就是那种喜欢免费的午餐的人（those who enjoy free lunch）。
39 市场上有很多关于学英语诀窍的书，但实际上，学英语就是一个背单词、与遗忘作斗争的过程。记忆力好的人总是少数。I cannot think of these English words off hand. One of the effective ways is to brush up on grammar rules a little bit everyday. There is simply no short cut. Off hand，我无法一下子就能想起这些英文单词。 Brush up on 常常复习，short cut，捷径。学英语最好是每天学一点，坚持不懈，集腋成裘：“Precept upon precept, here a little and there a little, idea by idea,”（一次学个概念，这里学一点，那里学一点，一次接触一个思想）。或者我们可以说 A little at a time, we can eat up an elephant eventually.（一次吃一口，我们最终可以把头大象给吞了。） It is a big job, but we can get it done. 这个工作巨大，但我们可以把它做好。所以不要相信那些100天就可以把英语学好的广告。如果有学生或一位网友100天可以学好英语的话，那我不就要失业了？
40 堵塞。看到“堵塞”二字，人们一般会想起“jam”，如果是交通堵塞，用jam是没错的。但是如果是下水道给堵塞了，最好要用clog。It is too bad, my sink is clogged up again.“堵塞”还有一个英文词“clot”: The street was clotted with traffic. 街上交通阻塞。血栓堵塞：blood clot。“堵塞”正式的名词是Congestion, 如果吃东西给咽了，则是choking （food clogging in the throat.）
41 Hang 是个常用的单词，几本意思是“挂，吊”。口语中加上in 或者on后，其意思是坚持。Hang in there, OK? 再在那里坚持一会。Everybody hanging on. 每个人都再坚持一下。Stay on. 也是“再坚持一会”
All relationships go through rough times. You just have to hang in there. 每种关系都会经历难关，所以你坚持下去就好了。
Just hang on in there. The physical training is tough but it’s worth it. 你一定要坚持下去，体育训练难度较大，但这代价是值得付的。
Hang around 的意思是闲逛。你进商店，老板会问：What can I do for you? 你则可以回答：I am just hanging around.我只是随便看看。
Most husbands hate hanging around with their wives in the mall. It’s so boring! 大部分的先生都不喜欢跟老婆去逛商场，太无聊了。

51.Back To Basics 从头来，回到起点，回到基础的东西。

又可以说：Back To Square One 这是一个美式足球的术语，球又从新开始。
