Sometimes professors say things, sometimes they mean exactly what they say, sometimes you want to ask them to repeat what they just said. It’s important to know exactly what your professor says and what it means because it can cost you precious points in the class if you mishear or misunderstand. Here’s some quick and easy translations for the next time you’re in class.
有时教授说话只是随便一提，有时候教授说话又是认真严肃的，有时你真想让他们再重复一遍他们刚才说了什么。知道教授到底在说什么又在表达什么含义这很重要，因为一旦你没听清或者没理解，可能会导致你失去这门课宝贵的学分。在此，我们将例举一些轻快简单的教授语言破译，希望在你上课的时候可以帮到你。
“The class doesn’t start for another 10 minutes, please converse among yourselves.”
“我将在10分钟后继续讲课，请大家自由讨论。”
The professor is feeling awkward at how quiet the class is, he really doesn’t want to picture you all in your underwear.
教授对课堂气氛如此沉寂表示尴尬，他可不想想象你们都是仅仅穿着内裤坐在那里的。
“It’s not due for a few weeks, but don’t do it last-minute.”
“这个项目会持续几周时间，但是不要等到最后一分钟前才开始行动。”
Oh my God, it’s going to be a crazy tough project! Do it right now! Start now! Go, go! Run home, Charlie, run home!
天啊，这将是个“举步维艰”的项目！现在就开始动手做！现在开始！快点，做！快跑！开始！快跑！
“Can you talk to me after class?”
“你能课下来找我谈吗？”
Usually, this doesn’t mean anything, you’re in college after all. Generally it just means the professor doesn’t have time to hear you whine at that moment and would rather wait until the rest of the class has gone to spare you the embarrassment. Oh, also! Though, it’s unlikely, it can also mean YOU’RE IN DEEP TROUBLE!
通常，这并不意味什么，毕竟你是大学生了。大多数情况下指示教授当下课上没有足够时间听你发牢骚，但更愿意等到课后其他同学都走后解除你的焦虑。哦，还有，虽然未必会这样，但是也很可能教授这么说意味着你有大麻烦了！
“This will be on the test.”
“这将在考试中出现。”
When your professor says this, your ears should perk up, your pen should fly to your hand like Thor’s Mjolnir hammer and you should be writing whatever it is on the board, down. Your instructor is telling you an answer! Don’t let it slip!
当你的教授如是说，你的耳朵就该竖起来，你的笔应该紧握在你手里就如同雷神手中的穆尼亚锤，你应该记下板书上的所有内容，不论是什么。你的导师在告诉你赤裸裸的答案！别让答案溜走！
“You’ll be fine, it’s really not that hard.”
“你没问题的。这没那么难。”
They’re just saying it’ll be easy so you don’t get stressed out but you know in your heart and soul that it will be the opposite!
他们只是说这很容易所以你不会感到过分的压力，但是在你内心深处，你应该了解事实往往是相反的！
“Is everybody okay with this? Do you understand? Is everybody with me so far?”
“所有人对这个都没问题了吧？听懂了吗？到目前为止，所有人都跟上了吗？”
Everything the professor said before this was most likely a very complex concept. They want questions. If you don’t ask a question now, they’ll keep going and you’ll continue to be confused!
教授之前说的所有内容很可能是一个很复杂的概念。教授此时希望你问些问题。如果你现在不问问题，他们就会继续讲课，然后你会越听越迷惘！
