英語習語A penny for your thoughts的英語口語練習

1、見到英語A penny for your thoughts，我的第一反應是「用」英語努力去回想，「用」的英語是：What does a penny for your thoughts mean? 或What does it mean when we say A penny for your thoughts?

如果我們學習A penny for your thoughts能有這樣的「反應」，我們首先就是在「用」英語了，而不是說「學習」後等哪天有機會跟別人「用」上英語A penny for your thoughts才叫「用」。殘酷的事實就是，不管你現在把A penny for your thoughts學的再好，你基本沒有機會真正用上這句英語。而如果你連現在都在「用」中文學它「中文什麼意思嘛？」，那麼，你就真正的是英語「學」而「不用」了。

2、把學過的英語用起來，用英語回答What does a penny for your thoughts mean? 或What does it mean when we say A penny for your thoughts?問題：

1. Well,when we say A penny for your thoughts,we are asking somebody and want to know：What are you thinking about?

2. When we are trying to find out what another person is thinking,we can say：A penny for your thoughts.

want to know及trying to find out what another person is thinking都是高中英語，見到A pennt for your thoughts時都應該能努力回想起來。

這就是既把學過的英語用起來，又做到用英語理解英語，又同時練習了英語口語。

下次見到A pennt for your thoughts，你還會「用」中文「說」「中文什麼意思來著」嗎？

Examples：

1.You've been awfully quiet tonight, honey—a penny for your thoughts?(What are you thinking ?)

2. You haven’t said anything all evening,Jane! A penny for your thoughts?(What are you thinking about?)
