说英文故事的技巧

当你身处国外，和一群朋友在酒吧聊天，或是你认识了外国人。谈话中不免提到些有趣的故事或经验，要如何生动又自然地表达你的故事呢？英文老师介绍了许多描述故事的小技巧，让我们来学学吧！

1. 表达对话的方式

I was like…

我心想“…”

I was like,”What are you doing?”

“我心裡想：你在做什么？”

I turned to him and said…

我转向他，说：“…”

He goes to me ,…

他对我说：“…”

2. 搞笑事件

I was cracking up”我笑到肚子痛”

We were cracking with tears

“我们笑到流泪了”

He was rolling up

“他笑到身体都弯曲了。”

We burst out laughing

“我们忍不住大笑了。”

3. 意外事件

要如何形容发生意外当下时，你有多痛，或有多蠢呢？

In agony

“真的超级痛”

One time my grandma and I was skating, however, she was lying on the floor. She was in agony.

“有一次我和我祖母去溜冰，但是她跌倒了，躺在地板上，她觉得超痛的！”

叙述故事时，你也可以用I was in pain(我那时超痛的)，不过用agony比pain更来的生动夸张。

I was sos stupid

“我那时真笨。”

I can’t believe I was such an idiot.

“我真不敢相信我那时这么蠢。”

It killed me / It was killing me

“痛死我了”

4. 难过的故事

如果你正叙述一件让你感受不好的事情，可以用：

We were devastated.

“我们感到非常震惊。”

Devastated(极度震惊，带有难过意味) 其实是过度形容，这个词是比较严重的，不过可以用来表达你的惊讶，让故事变的夸张。

当有人向你说了件不好的事时，你就可这样回应他。

It was awful / so sad.

“这的确糟透了 / 我为你感到难过”

5. 表达你的感受

I was pissed off

“我气坏了”

I was pissed off at those kids who were laughing at my grandma.

“那些小孩嘲笑我的祖母，让我非常生气。”

We were baffled.

“我们感到困惑。”

6. 震惊

狗咬人不稀奇，人咬狗才稀奇。你一定遇过一些让你哑口无言、震惊的事情，这时你可以说：

I couldn’t believe it.

“我不敢置信”

I was in complete and utter shock.

“这吓着我了！”

Utter(极度、非常)，shock(惊吓、惊讶)。所以utter shock就是极度震惊，表示你对这件事真的吓到或是非常震惊。

We were speechless

“我们(惊讶地)说不出话了”

I couldn’t believe what was right before my eyes.

“我不敢相信眼前发生的事情。”
