G. 有什麼英語趣味知識
西方人眼中的數字 生活中的數字(number)無處不在,但有寫數字帶有固定的象徵意義。由於中西方國家文化背景和風俗習慣的不同,它的意義和用法也有很大的差異,聽我來介紹一下吧。就像咱們中國人(Chinese)偏愛數字8(eight)和6(six),忌諱4(four)一樣,西方人認為3(three)和7(seven)是大吉大利的數字,會給人帶來幸福和快樂。西方文化認為世界(the world)是由大地(land),海洋(sea)與天空(sky)三者合成的;大自然由動物(animal),植物(plant)和礦物構成,所以他們就特別喜歡3這個數字。但是西方人認為13 (thirteen)是個不祥的數字。重大活動不安排在13號,請客避免13人入席,電影院里沒有第13排和13號座位。這是因為耶穌受難的前夜,和12個門徒共進晚餐,師徒13人中出現了一個叛徒猶大,因此,信奉基督教的民族都認為13是個不祥的數字。 國家的奧秘 拓展孩子對英美文化和歷史的了解,本期學科學習給您和孩子提供了這方面的內容,歡迎查看!「英國」的種種表達:英國的全稱是大不列顛及北愛爾蘭聯合王國(The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland),簡稱為聯合王國,縮寫為the U.K. 。英國由兩個大島組成,一個是大不列顛,另一個是愛爾蘭島北部。大不列顛由威爾士(Wales),英格蘭(England)和蘇格蘭(Scotland)三部分組成,其中英格蘭面積最大,人口最多,所以人們談起英國的時候常常稱之為England或者Britain。國家名稱和大寫字母 大家一定都知道我們的祖國的英語名稱是China吧!但是提到PRC,可能很多同學就不知道了,其實PRC也是中國的意思!在英語中,為了使用方便,很多國家名稱都可以用幾個簡單的大寫字母來代替,如: PRC =the People's Republic of China中國(中華人民共和國) CAN = Canada 加拿大 US = USA = the United States of America 美國(美利堅合眾國) UK = the United Kingdom (of Great Britain and Northern Ireland)英國(大不列顛及北愛爾蘭聯合王國) 大寫字母不僅能代表國家名稱的縮略形式,還有許多的用途,例如:廁所WC;世界貿易組織WTO;光碟CD等。大家不妨搜集一下,把這些有意義的大寫字母都放在一起,好好領略領略大寫字母的魅力吧! 西方的進餐禮儀 歐美國家(country)的餐桌大多是長方形的,男主人(host)坐在桌子的一端,女主人(hostess)坐在另一端,通常安排座位時要盡量避免兩位男賓或兩位女賓並坐在一起。 就餐時,身體(body)要坐得端正,身體和餐桌間距離以能使用刀(knife)、叉(fork)、匙(spoon)和飲食方便為度,手臂不要放在桌上,也不要張開妨礙別人。餐巾只用於擦嘴(mouth)和手(hands),切不可用來擦拭餐具和擦鼻涕、擦汗。用餐完畢後收起餐巾放在盤子(plate)右方。使用knife, fork和spoon時,不要弄出聲音,不用時,也不要用手擺弄刀叉玩。當一道菜吃完,或不想再吃時,就把刀和叉並排放在一起,刀叉的柄朝自己胸部。如未吃完,只是為了談話暫時停吃,就把刀叉擺成「八」字形,這樣服務員就不會把盤子收走。
女主人通常是主持整個宴會(party)的主人,大家注意她的動作。入席時,特別是小型宴會,一般總要等女賓先坐下後,男賓才坐下。男賓最好還要幫鄰座的女賓拉椅子。上菜後,一般要等女主人動手吃後,客人們(guests)才吃。宴會結束時,也由她領頭離席。西方的進餐禮儀還有很多呢,學習英語時老師也會給孩子講到相關內容。如果有機會和孩子一起吃西餐,或者其他正餐時,何不提醒孩子注意這些餐桌禮儀呢,讓孩子變得更禮貌,更文雅。 在美國打的 你經常打的嗎?Do you often take a taxi? 那麼你們知道在美國「打的」的規矩嗎?俗話說: 「When in Rome, do as Romans do.」(入鄉隨俗), 所以我們也要知道一些人家的風俗。In America, if you sit ahead when you take a taxi,the driver will be very happy. 在美國,如果你坐在車前座上,司機會很高興,他會一路上與你談笑風生。But if you sit at the back, the driver will not say a word to you. 但是,如果你坐在後座上,司機則跟你一句話也不說。即便你主動搭訕,人家也愛搭不理的。原來啊,如果你坐在前面,說明你把司機當作了朋友;你若坐在了後面,便表明對方成了純粹為你服務的司機,你們就是僱傭關系了。現在人們往往還是尋求金錢(money)以外的尊重(respect)與友誼(friendship),這看上去雖然只是個座位的問題,但卻體現了人與人之間的尊重。所以啊,如果您有機會在美國打的「take a taxi」,可要記得坐在前面啊!貓貓的萬種風情 1. fat cat 肥貓,指「為競選出錢的富翁;享有特權或謀取特權的人;有錢有勢的人,大亨。」 2. cool cat 酷貓,指「時髦人(尤指嗜好冷爵士樂的人);嗜好搖滾樂的人;做出孤傲冷漠的樣子的人」。 3. hepcat 迷戀爵士樂的貓,指「爵士(或搖擺舞)音樂迷;爵士(或搖擺舞)樂隊樂師。 4. cat 好模仿的貓,指「盲目的模仿者(通常為兒童之間的用語)」。 5. hell cat 好發脾氣的貓,指「潑婦,巫婆」。關於hell cat 是巫婆的說法要追溯到中世紀,那是迷信的人認為魔鬼撒旦(Satan,the Devil)常以黑貓的樣子出現。巫婆抱著一隻黑貓,騎著一把掃帚,在夜空游盪。所以,黑貓象徵著「厄運」。「不要讓黑貓從你面前走過」Don't let a black cat across your path是西方人眾所周知的禁忌。 6. the scaredy-cat/ fraidy-cat 恐懼的貓,指「膽小鬼」。a)Ten animals I slam in a net.
我把十隻動物一網打盡
你注意到這句話有什麼特別之處嗎?對了,無論從左到右,還是從右到左,字母排列順序都是一樣的,英語把這叫做Palindromes 迴文(指順讀和倒讀都一樣的詞語),關於動物的迴文還有以下的例子
Otto saw pup ; pup was Otto. (奧托看見了小狗,小狗的名字叫奧托)
Was it a car or a cat I saw ?
Was it a rat I saw ? (我剛才看見的是條老鼠?)
b)the bee's knees
又來形容最好的至高無上的東西。
[例] She is a very poor singer but she thinks she's the bee's knees. (她五音不全卻自認為是高高在上的一流歌手。)
該表現起源於20年代的美國,僅僅因為bee's 和 knees押韻,琅琅上口,迅速得到流傳,直到現在, 還在日常生活非正式場合的對話中經常使用。很多同學覺得英語的詞彙量大,英語單詞很難記。記英語單詞有沒有什麼小竅門呢?下面向大家介紹十種記憶英語單詞的方法:①分類記憶:把單詞進行分類如:顏色、文具、動物、食品、稱謂、職 業等進行分類記憶。②整體記憶: 把幾個字母看作一個整體來記 如 : 「ow」 再加上不同的字母,可組成 how, cow, low, now, town, down, know 」 等 ; 「ight」 ,再在前面 加上不同的字母,可組成 eight, light, right, fight, night, 等。③形象記憶: 如:「 tree 」把 tr 看成樹乾和樹枝,把 ee 看成樹葉。「 eye 」 把兩個 e 看成兩個眼,中間的 y 是鼻子。「 banana 」把 a 看成一 個個的香蕉。「 bird 」 把 b 和 d 看成兩個翅膀等等。④加法記憶: 如: after + noon = afternoon , school +bag=schoolbag⑤比較記憶: 英漢比較 如: T-shirt(T恤) 同音詞的比較 如: eye-I, see-sea, right-write⑥讀音記憶: 根據字母組合、讀音規則進行記憶,會讀一個單詞,便會拼 寫出來。⑦感官記憶: 記單詞時,盡可能地用多個感官,耳聽、嘴讀、手寫、眼看 、心記等。⑧卡片記憶: 自製單詞卡片,隨身帶著,有空就拿出來讀一讀,記一記單詞。⑨復習記憶: 記住了的單詞,過段時間不看,就忘記了,所以每隔一段時間要進行復習,鞏固所學單詞。 ⑩睡眠記憶:晚上睡前讀兩遍要記的單詞,然後睡覺,第二天醒來後再讀兩遍,這樣記憶效果不錯。英語趣味小知識——英語和漢語對手指的稱呼1.thumb :大拇指。與漢語相映成趣的是,英語的all(fingers and ) thumbs也表示"笨手笨腳"的意思,例如:(1)I'm all fingers and thumbs this morning. I don't seem to be able to button up my shirt.今天早上我的手怎麼這么笨呢,好像連襯衫都扣不上了。(2)He was so excited that his fingers were all thumbs and he dropped the teacup.他激動得手都不好使了,竟把茶杯摔了。2. forefinger :又稱index finger,即食指。前綴fore-表示"位置靠前的"(placed at the front),所以從排位上說,forefinger應為"第一指"。從功用上看,此手指伸出時有標示或指向的作用。在一些英語工具書中,我們會見到這樣的表示"參見"(index)含義的手型符號。3. middle finger :中指。此指居中,名正言順,且與漢語說法也一致。4. ring finger:無名指。從世界各地的婚俗習慣來說,結婚戒指(wedding ring)戴在這一手指(通常指左手)之上,表示已婚。5. little finger: 顧名思義為小指。在美國和蘇格蘭,人們又賦予它一個愛稱,管pinkie(pinky),後綴-ie (-y)有"小巧可愛"之意。
