Invitation to a Teen’s Life LESSON1 Invitation to a Teen’s Life Read On Shadow Day

P. 17 “What a day!” sighed my uncle as he sank into the couch. He looked exhausted from work. At the dinner table, my uncle described how busy and stressful things were in his office. “I’ve got so many projects going on,” he complained. “Sounds like my life!” I responded. “It’s really stressful for me, too.” 감탄문 접속사: ~하면서 look+ 과거분사: 지쳐 보였다 간접의문문: 의문사+주어+동사 어순 현재분사: 진행되고 있는 주어 It 생략된 구문, sound like+명사: ~처럼 들리다

P. 17 “Your life? Stressful?” My uncle roared with laughter. “What could possibly be stressful about your life? You don’t have to go to work and you don’t have to manage people as I do.” “Yes, I do,” I reminded him patiently. “I do go to work every day - it’s called school. Plus, I’ve got to deal with people every day, too. They’re called teachers and classmates.” roar with laughter 크게 웃다 What could ~? 수사의문문 ~할 필요가 없다(= need not, don’t need to) 대동사(=manage people) 대동사(=go to work, manage people) 조동사(강조) 접속부사: 게다가(= In addition) ~을 다루다(= manage)

P. 18 “Well, that’s different,” he said. “You don’t have to deal with any of life’s real pressures. I don’t see how you get stressed from going to school and hanging out with your friends. I’d love to be in your shoes.” 압박 간접의문문 전치사+동명사 병렬 구조(and로 연결) ~의 입장에 처하다

P. 18 I could not believe my ears. From the minute my alarm goes off in the morning, I’m on the run. I rush to take a shower, get dressed, and eat breakfast. All the while, my head is overwhelmed with the busy schedule ahead of me. I always have a deadline to meet for assignments and tests to study for. ~하자마자(=as soon as) 울리다 be on the run 아주 분주한 서둘러서 ~하다 그 동안 죽, 내내 수동태: ~에 압도되다 ~앞에 마감시간 to 부정사: 형용사적 용법 to 부정사: 형용사적 용법

P. 18 Also, contrary to my uncle’s opinion, my life does include managing people. I have to constantly deal with what my classmates and teachers say and do. ~와 반대로 조동사(강조) 동명사 관계대명사

P. 18 Although I would like to unwind from a tiring day when I return home, I know there are more pressing matters at hand. I spend hours solving math problems, writing reports, and studying for tests. I finally fall into bed, then wake up and rush through the same routine the next day. 접속사: 비록~일지라도 긴장을 풀다 접속사: ~할 때 긴급한 눈앞에 닥친 spend+시간 (in) -ing: ~하는 데 시간을 쓰다 병렬 구조(and로 연결) 일상의 일

P. 18 So when our school announced the “Shadow a Teen for a Day” event, you can bet I chose my uncle. When he showed up at school, he didn’t seem to know what the day would be like. He was holding his smartphone in his right hand “just to return a few calls between classes” and a few business papers in his left hand “to read when there’s nothing else to do.” I could tell he had no idea of what my usual day was like, or what his day would be like! 접속사: ~할 때 단언하다 (접속사 that) 접속사: ~할 때 간접의문문 to 부정사: 형용사적 용법 접속사: ~할 때 to 부정사: 형용사적 용법 간접의문문

P. 20 At first, my uncle seemed to enjoy being a student again. He was beaming throughout my history class. He thumbed through the textbook, absorbed by some information that he saw there. But by the end of the second class, math, he became more serious. “I wish I’d paid a little more attention to math when I was in school,” he said, scratching his head. 처음에 enjoy+동명사 휙휙 넘겨보다 (정보를) 받아들이다 목적격 관계대명사 I wish+ 가정법 과거완료 pay attention: 주의를 기울이다 분사구문(= as he scratched his head)

P. 20 In the third class, Spanish, my uncle’s smile started fading and he scribbled a note to me saying, “I have a terrible headache. How do you say that in Spanish?” I tried to hold back a laugh and patted his arm in encouragement. start+동명사 갈겨쓰다 현재분사: ~라고 쓰여 있는 try+to부정사: ~하려고 노력하다 참다 가볍게 치다, 쓰다듬다 격려

P. 20 Finally, it was lunch time and we went to the cafeteria. My uncle suddenly exclaimed, “Why is that girl pointing at me and laughing? Maybe she thinks I’m not as smart as I look.” I pulled him away and said, “Relax, Uncle Bob. She laughs at everybody. She laughed at me once in math class when I had to solve a problem on paper because I couldn’t work it out in my head.” “Oh, I guess that’s her personality,” said my uncle. 마침내 비인칭 주어 현재분사,병렬 구조(and로 연결) 손가락질하다 (접속사 that) as 형용사 원급 as: 만큼 ~한 pull 대명사 away: ~를 잡아 당기다 비웃다 접속사: ~할 때 접속사: ~때문에 work 대명사 out: ~을 해결하다 성격

P. 21 Obviously, my uncle was embarrassed at lunch, but he was probably even more embarrassed when he returned to class afterwards. The teacher asked him to name the current Secretary-General of the United Nations and he couldn’t think of the answer. Horrified, he whispered, “I should have known that! I feel like a fool, especially when everyone is watching me!” 분명히 접속사 비교급 수식 ~할 때 이름을 대다 나중에 ask+사람+to부정사: ~에게~하도록 요청하다 분사구문(= As he was horrified, ~) should have+과거분사: 과거 사실에 대한 후회, 뉘우침

P. 22 At the end of the school day, my uncle admitted that life as a teen is not as easy as he first thought. “This has been one of the longest and most stressful days I’ve had,” he commented and then asked, “Can I go now?” “Sure,” I said to him. “Thanks for coming, Uncle Bob. By the way, don’t forget to do the homework you’ve been assigned.” 전치사: ~로서 목적절을 이끄는 접속사 as+형용사 원급 +as: ~만큼 ~한 one of the+최상급+복수 명사: 가장 ~한 …들 중 하나 (목적격 관계대명사) ~에 대해 감사하다 forget to부정사: ~ 할 것을 잊다 (목적격 관계대명사)

P. 22 My uncle now sees the resemblance between my life and his - the stress of having a lot of work to do in a short amount of time, and having to deal with different types of people throughout the day. Thanks to “Shadow a Teen for a Day,” my uncle understands that life as a student is no walk in the park. 유사성 소유대명사(=his life) 병렬 구조(the stress of에 연결) 덕분에 목적절을 이끄는 접속사 전치사: ` ~로서 쉽지 않은 일
