But soon the monster takes over.但是很快这个怪兽就会控制我们。 take over意为“接管，取得对……的控制”。 E.g.Can you take over the cooking when I walk the dog?我遛狗时你能把饭做了吗? In the novel, robots take over the world.在这部小说中，机器人控制了世界。 3. We become couch potatoes with sore necks and dry eyes.我们变成了脖子酸痛、眼睛干涩的电视迷。 couch potato是一个固定表达，意为“老泡在电视机前的人”。 E.g.I don't want to be a couch potato on my days off. I want to do something active.我不想在休息日当一个电视迷。我想做一些积极的事情。 4.We miss out on sweet moments with loved ones. We are deaf to the real world. 我们错过了与亲人在一起的甜蜜时刻。我们对现实世界充耳不闻。 miss out意为“错失机会”，后面常跟on表示某个具体的机会。 E.g.He narrowly missed out on the world record.他险些打破世界纪录。 be deaf to sth.意为“不愿听某事，不肯听取某事”，通常用于形容忽视的状态。 E.g.It's not right to be deaf to his advice.不听他的建议是不对的。 ★Step 6　Summary　【课堂小结】 Ask students to use the students’ self-assessment form to check what they have learned in this lesson.
