笨小孩口语广播【40】今天你听得懂吗

【精彩全文】：

相信你在学习当中一定碰到过难题，或者说老师讲完课我们还是稀里糊涂！At this time, if you were a student, you would be able to raise a question: Hello, sir! Can you repeat? I didn't catch you! 当然，我们可以提出来！不过作为一个老师，他的职责就是把道理给学生讲清楚。好了，就拿今天为例，Andy一定让你轻松掌握两个实用句子，音乐之后，马上回来！

1) Do I make sense? 听得懂吗？

Suppose you are a teacher, you have to make sure that the students have a clear understanding of what you have taught. So usually at the end of the explanation, you would raise a question, like: Do I make sense? 作为老师问学生这句话，是想知道到底学生是否听懂了所讲的内容。如果他们听懂了，可能就会回答：I got it. So here the phrase "to make sense" means "to make someone understand".
我想这里大家可以简单总结一下我们知道的表示“听得懂”的短语：We have:
Do you understand?
Are you clear?
Do I make sense?
Can you catch it?
Have you got my idea?
这些句子一定要经常挂在嘴边，使用的时候要脱口而出，to blurt out!

2) It is above my head. 我不懂！

Of course, while I was talking about the first sentence, I gave you an example. That is: Do I make sense? When the students really can understand me, they can answer: Yeah, I got it. But if they cannot understand, they probably would say: Wow, it is above my head! 对了，It is above my head. 这句话的意思很明显，above one's head,在某人的大脑之上，当然是说超出某人的理解能力。
Here is an example: When I was a freshman in college, I began to study advanced mathematics. Calculation is above my head. Finally it is quite natural that I fail in mathematics again and again. But fortunately enough, I can learn English well.

另外，给大家补充一个短语，above oneself, 这个短语如果从字面意思看，应该是超出某人自己，可以想象，如果某人说话的时候超出了他自己，那么肯定是过于自大的那一种类型。So, please don't be above yourself! 不要过于自大，When you are beginning to know the theory of modesty, you will gradually make a bunch of friends.

今天学了两句话，Can you understand? or Do I make sense? If you think they are above your head, please replay it and if you say yes, please wait for the next program: NO.41! Goodbye!
