Policewoman Shot Knifer at Shum Shui Po Station

Summary:
In a stop-and-search operation at Shum Shui Po MTR Station, a female police officer and her partner intercepted a 55-year-old man, who brandished a knife and showed signs of aggressiveness in spite of her warning and gun drawn.

Language Enhancement:
Jeopardy (n.)(處於危險之中)
這字意思與 danger 相同,但要注意其讀音和用法。該 o 不發音,讀起來是 jep-par-dy,而且它絕大部分時候與介詞 in 一同出現:Sb./sth. + be + in jeopardy,意思是某人或物(例如職位)處於危險之中,會遭受傷害或損失。順帶一提,Jeopardy! 是美國一個著名遊戲節目的名稱,但意思當然與日常生活中使用的 in jeopardy 不同。
e.g. Deforestation has put the lives of many wildlife animals in jeopardy. They might all be extinct soon if we don’t change our ways of living.
e.g. While the general public seems to be enthusiastic about the rapid development of AI, some people are worried that countless jobs could be in jeopardy.

【武肺憂慮導致股市崩跌,CNN、BBC、紐時、NPR 這樣形容。。。】
1️⃣ Global stocks plummet over coronavirus concerns. (動詞用 plummet) -The New York Times
2️⃣ Italian stocks plunged Monday as the euro zone's third-largest economy grapples with the largest coronavirus outbreak outside of Asia. (動詞用 plunge) -CNBC
3️⃣ Dow (道瓊指數) plunges 1,000 points. - CNN
4️⃣ Japan stocks drop amid coronavirus pandemic worries. (drop 動詞用法) -Financial Times
5️⃣ The FTSE 100 suffered its sharpest drop in four years. (drop名詞用法) -BBC
6️⃣ Stocks fall as coronavirus fears hit global markets. -The Guardian
7️⃣ US stocks fell sharply Monday as investors worried about a growing number of coronavirus infections outside China. -NPR (副詞用 sharply)
8️⃣ Global stock markets dropped steeply on Monday. Foreign Policy (副詞用 steeply)
9️⃣ Fears over the coronavirus triggered a sharp fall in Chinese shares. -BBC
🔟 形容股市崩跌也可以說 stock market crash
• 第1句的 global "stocks"、第4句的 pandemic "worries"、第6句的 coronavirus "fears"、第9句的 Fears....都是台灣學生很容易忘記的「文法」要點複數s。
• xxx "hit" global "markets"、drop steeply / sharply、"suffer" its sharpest “drop” 都算是很高頻的「搭配詞」。
若文法和搭配詞底子不好,寫作怎麼練恐怕都很難有顯著的進步。
如果你特別「懶得背英文定義」、如果妳英文「背了就是想使用」、如果你也喜歡用「用法」、或是「思維的轉換」來學英文,歡迎聽聽我的改變ㄧ生英文文法、搭配詞公開課。只要在下方留言「我想要索取改變一生英語文法、搭配詞公開課」,我就會內信給你 / 妳觀看方式喔:)

worried用法 在 旅游达人Rx Yap Facebook 的最佳貼文
一个人独自旅行,没有导游或其他同行者的协助,旅行中的沟通该怎么事先准备呢?除了出发前先做好功课,记下路线规划,很多突发状况却还是需要当场向人求助,Skyscanner汇整了十个最实用的英语会话情境,帮助你对付旅行大小事!
【飞行途中】
搭乘到没有空服员会说中文的班机,除了基本的点餐需求,总不免偶尔遇到身体不适,或者想更换座位的状况,你可以尝试以下的方式与空服员或其他乘客沟通。
I am feeling a little bit dizzy. Could you give me some airsickness medicine or airsickness bag?
我觉得有点头晕,你可以给我一些晕机药或呕吐袋吗?
May I have a glass of white wine, please?
可以给我一杯白酒吗?
Would you mind trading seats with me?
你介意跟我交换位子吗?(当然,使用比较直白的changing seats with…也完全正确哦!)
【机场转机】
当你发现你的转机时间很短,在许多国际机场又分不同航厦,很有可能一家航空有不止一个柜台,前往还需要搭乘接驳公车,加上等车时间,将会超乎你预期的久!建议直接询问就近柜台地勤人员正确位置,以免错过你的班机。
I am worried about my connecting flight. How can I get to the connecting flight counter of Cathay Airline?
我很担心是否赶上转机的班机,你可以告诉我国泰航空的转机柜台该怎么走吗?
My next flight is heading to Melbourne via Quantas Airline. Am I waiting at the correct counter?
我下一个班机将搭乘澳洲航空前往墨尔本,请问我排这个柜台是正确的吗?
【海关】
海关在各个国家的严苛程度不一,大多数的状况不会被刁难,在国人少到访的国家,海关就有可能会针对你此趟入境的目的、时间长短、居住地方多做询问,这时不必紧张,只要把握以下几种回应,简单自在的回答,海关通常都是笑脸欢迎你来到他们的国家旅游!
Could you tell me the purpose of your visit?
你这次入境我国的目的是什么呢?
This time is mainly for vacation.
这趟旅行主要是来度假的。(你也可以简单回答For vacation,或者洽公For business trip)
How long will you stay?
你这次入境会待多久时间?
I will be staying here for 5 days. My flight will depart on 10th of July.
我将会在这边待五天,我会搭七月十号的班机离开。
【申报税检查】
有时会遇到被抽查行李内容物的状况,这时如果海关对携带的东西有疑问,你可以依真实状况解释回答。
What are these bottles of liquid for?
这些罐装液体是做什么用的?
These are skincare products for my personal use.
这些是我私人使用的东西。
These are different color of paints for drawing. I am an art instructor.
这些是绘画用的颜料,我是一位绘画老师。
These cans are organic maple syrup. They’re souvenirs (gifts) for my friends and family.
这些瓶瓶罐罐是有机枫糖浆,我买来当纪念品(礼物)送家人朋友的。
【行李遗失】
如果不幸在人生地不熟的机场找不着行李,这时赶紧前往失物招领柜台(Lost And Found)询问,越快回报遗失你才能越快拿回你的行李!除了详细报上你的行李外形特征帮助工作人员作业,也记得询问行李找回所需的时间,如果远远超过这趟旅行的时间,可以请他们找到后直接寄回你的家中,不用觉得不好意思,也别忘了再确认赔偿的标准和金额!
Could you tell me where is the lost and found counter?
你可以告诉我失物招领柜台在哪里吗?
You can fill out fill out a lost luggage form at luggage claim office first. Go straight till the end. The office is on your left side.
你可以先去行李领取处填写行李遗失单,直走到底在你的左手边。

不好意思,我的行李好像遗失了!这是我的行李条。
Please hold on for few minutes. You were taking China Airline flight CI XXX from Beijingto Sydney with one check-in luggage. Is that correct?
请稍等一下,您是搭乘国航CI XXX班次从北京飞往悉尼,掉了一只行李,对吗?
Could you describe your lost luggage?
您可以叙述一下你的行李外型吗?

How soon will you find my luggage?
请问多久可以找到我的行李呢?

If the luggage cannot be found or damaged, what is your reimbursement policy?
