Shake it shake it baby!

语法:
-
I want you to believe every word I say
➔ 虚拟语气 (愿望/要求)
➔ 虽然没有明确使用 "that" 和动词原形,但结构 "I want you to + 不定式" 表达了一种愿望或请求。它微妙地暗示了一种虚拟语气的成分,因为这个动作是希望实现的,不一定是事实。一个更正式的版本可能是 "I want that you believe...",更直接地使用虚拟语气。B2-C1 级别应该理解间接表达愿望的细微差别。
-
Music is what I've got to give
➔ 带有 'what' 的关系从句
➔ 'What' 引入了一个充当名词的关系从句。在这里,“what I've got” 充当介词 “to” 的宾语。 这是 C1-C2 级别的常见结构。
-
I've got to find some way to make it
➔ "Have got to"(义务/必要性)
➔ "Have got to" 是一种表达义务或必要性的非正式方式,类似于 “have to” 或 “must”。 在 B2 级别,学生应该熟悉这种结构,而 C1-C2 级别会自然地使用它。
-
Lemme hear your funky guitar...
➔ 非正式缩写 "Lemme" (Let me)
➔ "Lemme" 是 "let me" 的非常非正式的缩写。这是口语和歌曲歌词的典型特征。适当理解和使用非正式缩写是 B2 及以上级别所期望的技能。
-
Somebody take it away from me
➔ 带有隐含主语的祈使句
➔ 该句子是祈使语气,发出命令或请求。主语 "you" 是隐含的。 在 B2+,学生应该轻松地使用和理解祈使句。
-
You gotta go and fetch one
➔ "Gotta"(“got to” 的非正式缩写)+ "go and"(习语)
➔ "Gotta" 是另一个非正式缩写。 “Go and” 后跟一个动词 (fetch) 是一种常见的习语,用于表示移动的目的。 这结合了两个非正式元素,需要对 C1-C2 的会话英语有扎实的理解。
