例如:”I’ve lost my keys again. I**’m always losing** them.”(我又把钥匙弄丢了。我总是丢钥匙!)—— 意思是丢钥匙的频率太高了。
例如:”Paul is never satisfied. He**’s always complaining**.”(Paul从来都不满足。他老是在抱怨。)—— 表示他抱怨得太多了。
例如:”You**’re always looking** at your phone. Don’t you have anything else to do?”(你老是盯着手机看。你没有别的事可做吗?)
总结一下: Unit 3 的关键在于体会动作的“未完成/暂时感”(进行时)与**“普遍/长期感”**(一般时)之间的界限。
练习
练习一:常态 vs. 暂时状态(仔细体会两组句子语境的不同)

练习三:特殊句型 “always doing” (抱怨动作发生得太频繁) 5. A: The car has broken down again. B: That car is useless. It ________ (always / break) down! (这车太没用了。它老是出故障!)
Good communication is an important skill in every workplace. Engineers, doctors, teachers, and managers all need to communicate clearly with other people.
In engineering projects, communication helps reduce mistakes and improve efficiency. Team members must share information, discuss problems, and determine the best solution together. If communication is poor, even a small mistake can affect the whole project.
Good communication is not only about speaking. Listening carefully is equally important. People who listen well usually understand problems faster and make better decisions.
Today, many companies use emails, online meetings, and messaging software to improve communication. However, face-to-face discussions are still one of the most effective ways to solve difficult problems.
