Day 4 ---P 35-48

Five words:

1. Rowley started blubbering about how he doesn't want rock and roll to ruin his "brains."

blubber: to cry noisily, especially in a way that annoys people.

My sentence:

After realizing her failure in competition, Jane can't help blubbering in front of her parents.

2. I put Rodrick's new headphones on and cranked up the volume really high.

crank up: (informal) to make the sound of something, especially music, louder

We cranked up the volume.

My sentence:

The party starts from 6:00 pm, you must remember to crank up the volume of the speaker.

3. Dad marched me up to my room and shut the door behind him, and then he said-

march:  to force someone to walk somewhere with you, often pushing or pulling them roughly march somebody to/ into etc something

Mr Carter marched us to the principal's office.

My sentence:

The Jewish were marched by German soldiers to walk into Nazi camps.

4. He told me I was grounded from playing video games for two weeks, which is about what I expected.

ground: (informal) to stop a child going out with their friends as a punishment for behaving badly

I got home at 2 am and Dad grounded me on the spot.

My sentence:

Naughty kids are more often grounded by their parents.

5. While you're waiting, you do all these nice things to try to get off easier.

get off: if someone gets off, they are not punished for doing something wrong, or they receive only a small punishment

In the end he got off because there wasn't enough evidence against him.

My sentence:

The lawyer has found out evidence to make him get off.

Sentences:

One:

So I kind of let my guard down.

kind of的用法。在此处相当于kinda. 相对来说比较口语化,意思就是 slightly but not exactly, or in some ways. 也可以用 sort of 来表示。

My sentence:

I‘'m kind of disappointed about your grades in math.

Two:

Rodrick's in some hot water with Mom right now, too.

in hot water,中文有一种表达“水深火热之中”,英文解释是 in trouble because of something that you have done. 

My sentence:

After World War Two, German was in hot water and was nearly in ruins.

Composition:

I was exhausted today.

I wanted to fall asleep in every minute. Maybe I have got up too early  5 o'clock in the morning and did not have a rest in the afternoon. I used to sleep 10 minutes in the afternoon.  10 minutes are enough for me to be energetic again. If not, I will feel exhausted and want to do nothing but sleep.

The whole afternoon was in a mess. I have known  the truth that you have to fight against the changing habit with every muscle. And you'll fail in most times but succeed in persistent  efforts.
