1. It's a cake course. 这是一门大补丸的课.

我们说一门课很好修, 就用 cake course 这个字, 或是只说 It's a cake, 别人也是会了解的. 还有我听一个从柏克莱大学来的学生说, 他们把很补的课程叫 Micky Mouse, 很有趣吧? 大家参考参考.

 

2. Which department is she in? 她是哪一个系的?

我们都知道主修是用 major 这个字, 简单地问法就是, "What's your major?" 但是你也可以用 which field 或是 which department 来代替. 比如说有人来演讲 , 你想知道他是什么系的教授, 你就可以问 "Which department is she in?" 或是 "Which field is she in?" 还有一种最口语问主修的问法, 就是问人家 "What are you studying?" 就可以了

3. I haven't felt so washed out for ages 我很久没有这么疲劳了。(wash out,疲劳； for ages，很久)
 有关表达疲劳的：1.I'm tired out. 我累坏了。2. What a hard day I have! 真累人！3. The baby wears me out.这婴儿使我筋疲力尽。4.Life is really too much for me.生活对我真是太沉重了。
