（星火英语）零碎时间学英语.广告时间(配盘)-- 151个英语短语溯源，袖珍型图书让您学习也时尚！

轻松诙谐的幽默、经典的谚语、常用的短语及对话、或清新或温馨的英文歌曲、英汉互译的文章、夸张幽默的漫画，带字幕的MP3，所有这一切，均包含在这套“零碎时间学英语”中，真正让你做到“听”书！
马路边，巴士里，马桶上，厨房里，床上，很多人习惯用看书或看报来打发这些闲散时间，“零碎时间学英语”正是为您想充分利用这段时间而设计的。

如果你是“电视控”，你肯定理解等待广告有多痛苦！如果你周末常去购物，你肯定明白结账时“宛如长龙”的队伍让人多无奈！如果你是朝九晚五的上班族，你肯定深知公车上“度日如年”的煎熬！……这些生活中随处可遇、不可避免的状况，就是我们的“时间空隙”。这些时间太零碎，所以做不了一件完整的大事；我们只有盯着钟表期望它们赶紧过去，其实这些珍贵的时间就在我们或焦急、或无聊、或痛苦的心情中悄然逝去。我们可以算一算一天中可能存在的时间空隙：坐公车：15分钟（一天可能坐3、4次）排队：10分钟等广告：5分钟（一个节目大概插播3、4次）课间休息：10分钟（大约4、5次）睡前时间：10分钟

这样，一天我们丢掉了约140分钟的时间，一年我们浪费了约851小时（将近36天）！这是个惊人的数字，如果我们好好利用这些“时间空隙”，那么一年我们比别人多出至少一个月的时间。当然，这些“时间空隙”只是些零碎的时间，做不了一件大事，但是足以做一些“小事”，比如我们可以用一分钟记忆一个单词，两分钟背诵一个句子，五分钟读完一小篇文章……把身边的零碎时间用在英语学习上，不仅可以轻松打发难熬的时间，更可以实现 “滴水穿石”、“聚沙成塔”的学习计划！如果你希望每天比别人多出一点时间，就来关注一下这套“零碎时间学英语”系列丛书，它绝对能满足想要利用零碎时间进行英语充电的各种人群。而且小巧的设计可以随身携带，并赠送全文MP3朗读音频，随时随地都可以聆听原味英文。华罗庚说过：“时间是用分秒积成的，善于利用零星时间的人，才会做出更大的成绩。”从现在开始珍惜你的零碎时间，让这套丛书陪伴你度过更有意义的每一分钟！
