我的ChatGPT英文老師

  訂閱ChatGPT已經超過一年以上,老實說每個月20美金的訂閱費信用卡帳單來時,心中總有那麼一點心疼,它比起每個月的手機上網吃到飽月費還貴。但是,這是純粹以價格的角度思考,若是能善用它,好好發揮它的功能,它的價值絕對超過20美金。

      除了每天問各種生活及工作上的問題外,我把它當成全方位的英文老師,不用去跑補習班,隨傳隨到,真的很划算。

      現在,除了它可以用來幫忙翻譯之外,也可以用來當我的英文口說及寫作老師。以下是我每天坐公車上班時,一句一句寫出我的簡單句子,它一句一句指導後,寫出一篇完整的日記。

On Friday morning, I woke up earlier than usual because I had a meeting with my manager at 9 a.m. We discussed the key tasks for each team. Every team leader needs to report to the vice president on their team’s key tasks and issues. My team is responsible for the call center and HR systems. During the meeting, the vice president may give some instructions to certain team leaders, and those instructions need to be followed next week. If I don’t get any instructions from the vice president, it’s a happy Friday for me. But I still have some project checkpoints that I need to track. Before I finish work on Friday, I need to think about what food to buy for my family for Friday night. I usually buy food at the market near my office. The market sells fresh vegetables, cooked food, and snacks. It’s near the bus stop, so I can easily take a bus home.

寫完後,你也可以請它改成創意版本或是正式版本。例如:

Last Friday I woke up earlier than usual. The sky outside my window was still a little dark, and the streets were quieter than on a normal workday. I made a quick breakfast, checked a few emails on my phone, and reminded myself that I had a 9 a.m. meeting with my manager. “It’s Friday,” I told myself. “Just survive today, and then it’s the weekend.”

When I got to the office, people were already moving around with coffee cups in their hands. At nine o’clock sharp, we started the meeting. My manager and I went over each team’s main tasks for the week. Every team leader has to report to the vice president about what their team is working on and any important issues, so we needed to make sure everything was clear. My team takes care of the call center and HR systems, so there are always tickets, incidents, and new requests waiting for us.


Later, we joined a larger meeting with the vice president and the other team leaders. The VP was in a serious mood that day. We reviewed project timelines, system stability, and a few AI-related ideas for improving our internal tools. During the meeting, the vice president gave some extra instructions to certain team leaders, and everyone quickly wrote them down. I was secretly hoping I wouldn’t get any new tasks. For me, a “happy Friday” means no new surprise assignments from the VP.

Unfortunately, Friday is also my checkpoint day. Even if I don’t receive new instructions, I still have a few project checkpoints that I need to track—open issues, upcoming deadlines, and follow-ups with vendors. My to-do list on the screen looked like a long, never-ending scroll. Every time I checked one item off, another one appeared in my inbox.

In the late afternoon, while my colleagues were joking about weekend plans, my mind slowly shifted to a different kind of question: “What should I buy for dinner tonight?” Before I finish work on Friday, I always need to think about what food to buy for my family for Friday night. It’s our small tradition to have something a bit nicer at the end of the week. I usually send a few messages in our family group chat and ask, “What do you feel like eating tonight?” The replies come back one by one: “Something light,” “I want fried chicken,” “Anything is fine.” Not very helpful, but at least it feels warm.

On my way home, I stop by the market near my office. I usually buy food there. The market sells fresh vegetables, cooked food, and all kinds of snacks. The smell of grilled meat, soup, and fried dumplings mixes in the air, and it finally feels like the workday is over. The market is right next to the bus stop, so after I grab what I need, I can easily take a bus home with my shopping bags and a tired but satisfied smile.

By the time I get home, the sky is dark and everyone is ready for dinner. We lay the food out on the table and talk a little bit about our day. It wasn’t exactly a relaxing Friday—there were meetings, checkpoints, and responsibilities—but sharing a simple meal with my family makes it feel worth it. After dinner, I finally do what I’ve been dreaming about since the afternoon: I sit down on the sofa, pick up my phone for a bit, and happily become a couch potato.

 以上版本是從簡單版本變化而來,沒有太複雜單字,但可以幫助自己用英文簡單表達。

其實,我只是用了以下這句簡單的提示詞(Prompt) :
