Are you stiff-necked and stubborn when you speak to your spouse?

当你跟配偶说话的时候，你是不是一个硬着颈项，固执己见的人？

I would like to explain it, but he kept on saying without stop in order not to give any opportunity for me to say.

我本想解释一下，可是他不停地说，不给我说话的机会。

Well, I guess I was in no place to make comment on that story, your story, even if I were the storyteller.

今天我是应该要忘记怎样去说话的，所以我就不多说了。

He did not dare to look me straight in the face when he spoke.

他和我说话时不敢正眼看着我。

He could not help overhearing the conversation, so strident was her tone

If one day I could no longer walk or talk, would I be still so strong-willed?

They always told me that if I could think over the words and talk slowly, I would never stutter.

他们总是告诉我，假如我可以多想想自己要说的话，在说话的时候说慢一点，我就永远不会口吃了。

I don't stutter, but I do often have trouble speaking fluently

其实我并不口吃，但是我说话不流利确确实实是常有的事

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.

索夫农 、森那库斯和苏格拉底式的对话采用的模仿没有一个公共的名称；三音步诗、挽歌体或其他类型的诗的模仿也没有——人们把&诗人&这一名词和格律名称结合到一起，称之为挽歌体诗人或者史诗诗人，他们被称为诗人，似乎只是因为遵守格律写作，而非他们作品的模仿本质。

The relationship between communicative competence and grammar teaching should be that of the ends and the means.

交际能力和语法的关系应该是目标与途径的关系。
