🎵 为什么分享这首歌

美国民谣经典,这版来自科恩兄弟电影《醉乡民谣》(Inside Llewyn Davis),三个人和声,一把吉他,干净又苍凉。讲一个离家五百英里、身上没钱没衣裳、回不去的人。

学英语的角度:歌词简单重复、朗朗上口,而且藏着两个超实用的「穷」的习语——not a penny to my namenot a shirt on my back,听完就会用。

📝 歌词 Lyrics(节选)

If you miss the train I’m on, you will know that I am gone You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles A hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles, a hundred miles You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles

Lord I’m one, Lord I’m two, Lord I’m three, Lord I’m four Lord I’m five hundred miles from my home

Not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name Lord I can’t go back home this a-way

💬 讨论点(语音群聊用)

  1. Five hundred miles from home. — How far are you from your hometown right now? Miss it?
  2. Not a penny to my name. — Have you ever been that broke, or started over from nothing?
  3. Why do you think a song about leaving home touches people everywhere?

✍️ 我的笔记

最爱两个「穷」的习语:not a penny to my name(名下一分钱没有)和 not a shirt on my back(穷得精光),比 I’m very poor 生动一百倍。还有 hear the whistle blow 这种 hear + 动词原形 的用法,感官动词后面不加 to,下次想说「听他唱歌」直接 heard him sing
