Hello, everyone. This is Keke Net English. Welcome to Juliet’s Morning English Class. As a saying runs, “An hour in the morning is worth two in the evening.” And another saying goes, “An early bird catches a worm.” So, what’s your harvest for this morning? Do follow me and I am hoping we can spend a wonderful and meaningful time here.
 
We have a way of indicating that someone should be clear about the message or point that is being made. It’s a question. Guess what it is. Let’s listen to the following mini situational dialogue to get the answer.
 
(Scene:It happens between a mother and his son who are discussing where to travel. )
 
Son:I don’t think I’d like to travel overseas.
 
Mother:What’s your point? Don’t you want to go to Europe with me?
 
Have you got the answer? It is “What’s your point?” It is like saying “Tell me your main idea.” Let’s look at the sentence structures which is about this word:
 
1. What is the point of something? (of + N)
 
2. What is the point of doing something? (of + Gerund)
 
Both of them similar to saying in Chinese——你想说什么?or ......有什么意义?More examples, let's take a look at:
 
1.What is the point of this.
 
2. What's the point of talking about it right now?
 
3. What's the point of having a book club if we don’t read the book?
 
Here's another useful sentence including "point". It is “Get to the point”. It means "to cut the chase 1." , similar to saying "Don't beat around the bush." Some examples and let's have a look at:
 
1.Get to the point. I don't want to wast time.
 
2.Stop discussing trivial 2 details and et to the point.
 
3.Please get to the point! What do you come here for?
 
4.Jenny, let's get to the point. Do you want the afternoon off?
