這一集，Kevin 從 Reddit 找了幾個好笑的故事分享給各位。 ＊18 禁好笑故事 https://www.facebook.com/groups/297092928323777/ ＊戀童鬍子照片 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/english.great.easy/ --社群媒體-- 臉書粉專 https://www.facebook.com/kevin.english.podcast YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-LfXeUtpvAczV1w1yTq4eQ 故事 #1 --單字-- stapled 釘釘子 step out 走到外面 -Can we step outside for a moment? a sheet of paper flow chart 流程圖 process 流程 vary 有差異 -answers will vary 答案不一致 podium 講台 --字稿-- One day in college, the teacher had stapled answer sheets to the back of every test by mistake. A few minutes after passing the tests around, his phone rang and he stepped out. Everyone had noticed the answer sheet, and we decided that we would all use it and tear it off after. Hopefully he would never notice. So I checked each of the answers and they were all correct except for the last one. We were to draw a flow chart for a process. I checked the answer sheet, "answers will vary.” I drew my flow chart, tore off the answer sheet and walked to the front podium to turn the test in. When I got to the podium I had to know. I needed to see what everyone else had drawn for their flow chart. "answers will vary." Everyone had written that on their tests. I don't remember what the teacher did about it. 故事 #2 --單字-- mustache 嘴唇上方鬍子 wrinkly 皺皺的 tucked in 紮進去 vibe 感覺、fu not all there in the head 腦筋不對勁 manic 瘋狂的 creepy 令人起雞皮疙瘩 going through attendance 點名 mortified 驚恐 pull a prank 捉弄某人 pedophile 戀童僻的人 --字稿-- High school, Jr. Year. First day of class. Teacher walks in, it's an older wrinkly guy with a mustache. A little weird looking. His shirt is only tucked in on one side. His shirt is only tucked in on one side. Every one is just getting the wrong vibe from this guy. Like, he's not all there in the head. He's got a manic look in his eyes. He's creepy. He starts going through attendance, not looking up the whole time. Then he gets to my name. Starts to say it, then stops. Looks up, scans the room, looks directly at me. "Ah, John, I'm glad you're here. How's your family? Is your little sister still playing the piano? Is that model ship still on your dresser? Is your room still blue?” I'm shocked, mortified. I can't find the words to respond, this creeper has just described my family, and the room I sleep in at night. But anyway, the next day I find out the old crazy guy is my uncles best friend, and they and my dad decided to pull a prank on me for my first day. The teacher wasn't so crazy looking the rest of the year, he shaved the pedo mustache (which he grew specifically for the prank, apparently), dressed better, stopped making his eye twitch, I have to admit, it was a good prank, even if I was terrified of being murdered for a day or two. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

So I said to my people, slow the testing down please. ----Mary Trump's tell-all book 字稿---- A judge in New York lifted the temporary restraining order on President Trump's niece Mary Trump, allowing her to speak freely ahead of the upcoming publication of her tell-all book. The Trump family had argued that Mary Trump violated the 2001 terms of patriarch Fred Trump's estate by writing the tell-all, but Judge Hal Greenwald denied their request. Her book, "Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man," will be published on Tuesday. Mary Trump is the daughter of Mr. Trump's elder brother Frederick Trump Jr., who died in 1981 at the age of 42 after struggling with alcoholism. The book gives an intimate, first-hand account of the president's upbringing and rise to one of the most powerful positions in the world.

我是個果迷，之前讀賈伯斯傳 Steve Jobs 有了很多感觸、想法。這次的節目，我挑了兩段我覺得有趣的篇章分享給各位。 ---- 對 Podcast 好奇，想快速上手？ 想用低成本建立品牌，又不想露臉？ ＊現在推出：Kevin「Podcast 全攻略」線上課程！ 讓我教你如何從零開始做好 Podcast。 原價 1280，30 天募資特價 999！ 課程連結：https://hahow.in/cr/podcasting *Speaking 兩題 (1) Who did Steve Jobs relate to the most at Adobe Systems? (2) What did Steve Jobs do after leaving Apple? ----單字 (1)---- *infuriation (n.) 憤怒 *infuriate (v.) 憤怒 -John was infuriated by the article. *stem from something 處自某處 --Their disagreement stemmed from a misunderstanding. *fundamental 基礎、原則上 *conflict 爭執、意見不合 --There was a lot of conflict between him and his father. *control freaks 控制狂 *integrate 整合、結合 ----字稿 (1)----- Jobs’ infuriation stemmed partly from a fundamental conflict between Android’s open-source approach and his own belief in a closed, carefully controlled ecosystem. “We do these things not because we are control freaks,” he said. Addressing users’ concerns, he said: “They are busy doing whatever it is they do best, and they want us to do what we do best. Their lives are crowded; they have other things to do than think about how to integrate their computers and devices.” “Look at the results — Android’s a mess …. We do it not to make money. We do it because we want to make great products, not crap like Android.” ----單字 (2)---- *tirade 長篇抱怨、責罵 *has its roots in something 根源於 *collaborate 合作 *to put something on the map 使某事物廣為人知 *suits 代指官僚、生意人、企業文化 ----字稿 (2)---- Jobs’ well-known tirade against Adobe Systems Flash multimedia software may have had its roots in the 1980s. Apple had invested in Adobe in 1985 and they collaborated to popularize desktop publishing. But in 1999, Jobs — after returning to Apple — had asked Adobe to make its video-editing software available for the new iMac but the company refused, focusing instead on Microsoft Windows. Soon after, founder John Warnock retired. “I helped put Adobe on the map,” Jobs said. “The soul of Adobe disappeared when Warnock left. He was the inventor, the person I related to. It’s been a bunch of suits since then, and the company has turned out crap.” -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

Although classes haven't started, I had already moved into my dorm. One day, I made myself a peanut butter sandwich. I put my sandwich on the table, and ten minutes later, it was gone. My roommate ate it. About a week later, I decided to make myself another peanut butter sandwich. I opened my cupboard and saw that my roommates left an empty jar in my cupboard. I flipped out because who eats a whole jar of peanut butter, without introducing themselves? These girls would scarf down all my food, and complain if they thought anyone was touching their food. So I started buying really fattening food such as doughnuts, pies, cakes. I was trying to teach them self-restraint, but these girls would go through these boxes within two days. So I kept buying doughnuts and desserts. And then one day they started complaining about how they couldn't fit their jeans. Success. I also put laxatives in my peanut butter. ----單字---- dorm 宿舍 cupboard 櫃子 flipped out 暴怒 scarf down 狼吞虎嚥 fattening 增肥 restraint 節制 laxatives 瀉藥 #2 ----文稿---- My roommate freshman year got completely hammered, came back to the room around 1 in the morning, and accused me of stealing the pudding in her fridge that she *had ate* an hour before she went out. She waited until I fell asleep and then stabbed me in the arm with one of those clicky pencils…I had to go to the hospital to get it cleaned/stitched. She got kicked out. ----單字---- freshman year 大一 hammered 嚴重酒醉 accused 指控 *had ate* 其實是錯的，應該是 had eaten。你有抓到嗎？XD stabbed 捅 #3 ----文稿---- I got absolutely hammered and pissed all over my roommates desk the night before the end of the year. I woke up to him hanging up his money to dry out. Years later he ended up as my boss and ended up giving me a significant promotion. I guess he doesn't hold grudges. ----單字---- pissed 尿尿 ended up 變成 significant 大、有份量的 promotion 升遷 hold a grudge 記仇 #4 ----文稿---- It was move out day and my roommate was working on a paper last minute. I was packing my stuff. His parents walked in and were absolutely pissed that he wasn't packed yet. They immediately started scolding him while I was still in the room, but thankfully I had a final to go to and figured I'd dodge the storm. I said my goodbyes, assuming they'd be gone by the time I got back from my two hour final and went on my way. As it happens, my final only took twenty minutes so I got back much sooner than they'd have expected. I opened the door, saw my roommate bent over his bed with his bare ass showing just as his mom wound up for a spank. I quickly closed the door and went over to a friend's dorm until I felt safe enough to return. I never brought it up to him after that. ----單字---- paper 這裡是指報告 scolding 責罵 dodge the storm 避風頭 assuming 假設、預設 bare 沒穿衣服的、光溜溜 wound up 準備做某個動作 spank 打巴掌 bring something up 提及某事 -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

I would like to hear your stories about terrible college roommates, if not for entertainment, at least for comparison. I'll start off. I go to a school where the students are a bit weirder than the rest of the country, and my roommate is considered weird, so that should give you an idea. As best I can describe, he was like a child, in a child's body, but with the age of someone in college. Don't get me wrong, the kid is brilliant… but he was terrible at life. I'll start the description in the way that I got to know him. He scratched, a LOT, noisily and mainly his face. He talked to himself, and not the “confirming things I need to do” kind of talk to himself, the Gollum to Sméagol talk to himself. He developed a horrendous snoring problem the week of finals. He was incredibly intolerant, as well as sexist. So if you have some good stories, share them! -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
