1
I had a pretty uncomfortable conversation with my roommate yesterday.
2
I honestly thought it might turn into an argument.
3
Oh no. What happened?
4
Did you two have another problem with the apartment?
5
Not exactly.
6
My roommate invited a friend to stay over.
7
At first, I didn't mind, because I thought it was just for one night.
8
Let me guess.
9
One night turned into two?
10
Two, then three.
11
And nobody even asked me if I was okay with it.
12
Wait.
13
Three nights?
14
So you basically had a third roommate.
15
Where was this person sleeping?
16
On the couch, in our living room.
17
And every time I came home from work, they were there watching TV or using the kitchen.
18
That sounds annoying.
19
Couldn't you just relax in your bedroom?
20
I could, but that's not the point.
21
I pay rent to share an apartment with one person, not two.
22
I felt like I had no privacy.
23
Did your roommate at least tell you how long the guest was planning to stay?
24
Nope.
25
And yesterday I came home, saw their clothes and bags all over the living room, and thought, okay, I really need to say something.
26
I would have said something on the second night.
27
So how did you bring it up?
28
I waited until we were alone and said, hey, can we talk about something?
29
My roommate said, sure, what's up?
30
That opening always makes people nervous.
31
What did you say next?
32
I said, it's about your guest.
33
I thought they were only staying for one night, but they've been here for three nights now.
34
And what was your roommate's reaction?
35
My roommate said, yeah, they're staying a few extra days.
36
They're a close friend of mine.
37
Is that a problem?
38
Oh, that sounds a little defensive.
39
Did you tell your roommate how you felt?
40
Yeah.
41
I said, I don't mind having guests over sometimes, but this is getting uncomfortable.
42
I wish you'd asked me first.
43
And let me guess, your roommate didn't think it was a big deal.
44
Exactly!
45
My roommate said, it's just a few nights.
46
What's the big deal? are you saying I can't have friends over?
47
Oh, I hate when people turn a simple request into something completely different.
48
What did you say?
49
I said, that's not what I'm saying.
50
Of course you can have guests, but we share this apartment and I didn't agree to having someone stay here for several nights.
51
That's fair.
52
You're not trying to control anything.
53
You just want to feel comfortable at home.
54
Exactly.
55
I added, I'm not trying to be difficult.
56
I just want some privacy.
57
Can we agree to talk about overnight guests in advance.
58
Okay, that's a reasonable request.
59
Did your roommate finally understand?
60
After a moment, yeah.
61
My roommate said, okay, I guess I should have asked you first.
62
My friend is leaving tomorrow anyway.
63
Well, that's a relief.
64
But did you agree on what happens next time?
65
We did.
66
I said, can you give me a heads up next time, especially if someone wants to stay more than one night.
67
My roommate agreed and apologized.
68
Good so things didn't get too awkward afterward?
69
A little, but I'm glad I spoke up.
70
I don't mind visitors.
71
I just don't want to come home wondering how many people are living in my apartment.
72
Fair enough.
73
You agreed to split the rent with one roommate, not open a free hotel for all their friends.
74
One cup of English.
75
Real English for real life.

什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
