G. 有什么英语趣味知识
西方人眼中的数字 生活中的数字(number)无处不在,但有写数字带有固定的象征意义。由于中西方国家文化背景和风俗习惯的不同,它的意义和用法也有很大的差异,听我来介绍一下吧。就像咱们中国人(Chinese)偏爱数字8(eight)和6(six),忌讳4(four)一样,西方人认为3(three)和7(seven)是大吉大利的数字,会给人带来幸福和快乐。西方文化认为世界(the world)是由大地(land),海洋(sea)与天空(sky)三者合成的;大自然由动物(animal),植物(plant)和矿物构成,所以他们就特别喜欢3这个数字。但是西方人认为13 (thirteen)是个不祥的数字。重大活动不安排在13号,请客避免13人入席,电影院里没有第13排和13号座位。这是因为耶稣受难的前夜,和12个门徒共进晚餐,师徒13人中出现了一个叛徒犹大,因此,信奉基督教的民族都认为13是个不祥的数字。 国家的奥秘 拓展孩子对英美文化和历史的了解,本期学科学习给您和孩子提供了这方面的内容,欢迎查看!“英国”的种种表达:英国的全称是大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国(The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland),简称为联合王国,缩写为the U.K. 。英国由两个大岛组成,一个是大不列颠,另一个是爱尔兰岛北部。大不列颠由威尔士(Wales),英格兰(England)和苏格兰(Scotland)三部分组成,其中英格兰面积最大,人口最多,所以人们谈起英国的时候常常称之为England或者Britain。国家名称和大写字母 大家一定都知道我们的祖国的英语名称是China吧!但是提到PRC,可能很多同学就不知道了,其实PRC也是中国的意思!在英语中,为了使用方便,很多国家名称都可以用几个简单的大写字母来代替,如: PRC =the People's Republic of China中国(中华人民共和国) CAN = Canada 加拿大 US = USA = the United States of America 美国(美利坚合众国) UK = the United Kingdom (of Great Britain and Northern Ireland)英国(大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国) 大写字母不仅能代表国家名称的缩略形式,还有许多的用途,例如:厕所WC;世界贸易组织WTO;光盘CD等。大家不妨搜集一下,把这些有意义的大写字母都放在一起,好好领略领略大写字母的魅力吧! 西方的进餐礼仪 欧美国家(country)的餐桌大多是长方形的,男主人(host)坐在桌子的一端,女主人(hostess)坐在另一端,通常安排座位时要尽量避免两位男宾或两位女宾并坐在一起。 就餐时,身体(body)要坐得端正,身体和餐桌间距离以能使用刀(knife)、叉(fork)、匙(spoon)和饮食方便为度,手臂不要放在桌上,也不要张开妨碍别人。餐巾只用于擦嘴(mouth)和手(hands),切不可用来擦拭餐具和擦鼻涕、擦汗。用餐完毕后收起餐巾放在盘子(plate)右方。使用knife, fork和spoon时,不要弄出声音,不用时,也不要用手摆弄刀叉玩。当一道菜吃完,或不想再吃时,就把刀和叉并排放在一起,刀叉的柄朝自己胸部。如未吃完,只是为了谈话暂时停吃,就把刀叉摆成“八”字形,这样服务员就不会把盘子收走。
女主人通常是主持整个宴会(party)的主人,大家注意她的动作。入席时,特别是小型宴会,一般总要等女宾先坐下后,男宾才坐下。男宾最好还要帮邻座的女宾拉椅子。上菜后,一般要等女主人动手吃后,客人们(guests)才吃。宴会结束时,也由她领头离席。西方的进餐礼仪还有很多呢,学习英语时老师也会给孩子讲到相关内容。如果有机会和孩子一起吃西餐,或者其他正餐时,何不提醒孩子注意这些餐桌礼仪呢,让孩子变得更礼貌,更文雅。 在美国打的 你经常打的吗?Do you often take a taxi? 那么你们知道在美国“打的”的规矩吗?俗话说: “When in Rome, do as Romans do.”(入乡随俗), 所以我们也要知道一些人家的风俗。In America, if you sit ahead when you take a taxi,the driver will be very happy. 在美国,如果你坐在车前座上,司机会很高兴,他会一路上与你谈笑风生。But if you sit at the back, the driver will not say a word to you. 但是,如果你坐在后座上,司机则跟你一句话也不说。即便你主动搭讪,人家也爱搭不理的。原来啊,如果你坐在前面,说明你把司机当作了朋友;你若坐在了后面,便表明对方成了纯粹为你服务的司机,你们就是雇佣关系了。现在人们往往还是寻求金钱(money)以外的尊重(respect)与友谊(friendship),这看上去虽然只是个座位的问题,但却体现了人与人之间的尊重。所以啊,如果您有机会在美国打的“take a taxi”,可要记得坐在前面啊!猫猫的万种风情 1. fat cat 肥猫,指“为竞选出钱的富翁;享有特权或谋取特权的人;有钱有势的人,大亨。” 2. cool cat 酷猫,指“时髦人(尤指嗜好冷爵士乐的人);嗜好摇滚乐的人;做出孤傲冷漠的样子的人”。 3. hepcat 迷恋爵士乐的猫,指“爵士(或摇摆舞)音乐迷;爵士(或摇摆舞)乐队乐师。 4. cat 好模仿的猫,指“盲目的模仿者(通常为儿童之间的用语)”。 5. hell cat 好发脾气的猫,指“泼妇,巫婆”。关于hell cat 是巫婆的说法要追溯到中世纪,那是迷信的人认为魔鬼撒旦(Satan,the Devil)常以黑猫的样子出现。巫婆抱着一只黑猫,骑着一把扫帚,在夜空游荡。所以,黑猫象征着“厄运”。“不要让黑猫从你面前走过”Don't let a black cat across your path是西方人众所周知的禁忌。 6. the scaredy-cat/ fraidy-cat 恐惧的猫,指“胆小鬼”。a)Ten animals I slam in a net.
我把十只动物一网打尽
你注意到这句话有什么特别之处吗?对了,无论从左到右,还是从右到左,字母排列顺序都是一样的,英语把这叫做Palindromes 回文(指顺读和倒读都一样的词语),关于动物的回文还有以下的例子
Otto saw pup ; pup was Otto. (奥托看见了小狗,小狗的名字叫奥托)
Was it a car or a cat I saw ?
Was it a rat I saw ? (我刚才看见的是条老鼠?)
b)the bee's knees
又来形容最好的至高无上的东西。
[例] She is a very poor singer but she thinks she's the bee's knees. (她五音不全却自认为是高高在上的一流歌手。)
该表现起源于20年代的美国,仅仅因为bee's 和 knees押韵,琅琅上口,迅速得到流传,直到现在, 还在日常生活非正式场合的对话中经常使用。很多同学觉得英语的词汇量大,英语单词很难记。记英语单词有没有什么小窍门呢?下面向大家介绍十种记忆英语单词的方法:①分类记忆:把单词进行分类如:颜色、文具、动物、食品、称谓、职 业等进行分类记忆。②整体记忆: 把几个字母看作一个整体来记 如 : “ow” 再加上不同的字母,可组成 how, cow, low, now, town, down, know ” 等 ; “ight” ,再在前面 加上不同的字母,可组成 eight, light, right, fight, night, 等。③形象记忆: 如:“ tree ”把 tr 看成树干和树枝,把 ee 看成树叶。“ eye ” 把两个 e 看成两个眼,中间的 y 是鼻子。“ banana ”把 a 看成一 个个的香蕉。“ bird ” 把 b 和 d 看成两个翅膀等等。④加法记忆: 如: after + noon = afternoon , school +bag=schoolbag⑤比较记忆: 英汉比较 如: T-shirt(T恤) 同音词的比较 如: eye-I, see-sea, right-write⑥读音记忆: 根据字母组合、读音规则进行记忆,会读一个单词,便会拼 写出来。⑦感官记忆: 记单词时,尽可能地用多个感官,耳听、嘴读、手写、眼看 、心记等。⑧卡片记忆: 自制单词卡片,随身带着,有空就拿出来读一读,记一记单词。⑨复习记忆: 记住了的单词,过段时间不看,就忘记了,所以每隔一段时间要进行复习,巩固所学单词。 ⑩睡眠记忆:晚上睡前读两遍要记的单词,然后睡觉,第二天醒来后再读两遍,这样记忆效果不错。英语趣味小知识——英语和汉语对手指的称呼1.thumb :大拇指。与汉语相映成趣的是,英语的all(fingers and ) thumbs也表示"笨手笨脚"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.今天早上我的手怎么这么笨呢,好像连衬衫都扣不上了。(2)He was so excited that his fingers were all thumbs and he dropped the teacup.他激动得手都不好使了,竟把茶杯摔了。2. forefinger :又称index finger,即食指。前缀fore-表示"位置靠前的"(placed at the front),所以从排位上说,forefinger应为"第一指"。从功用上看,此手指伸出时有标示或指向的作用。在一些英语工具书中,我们会见到这样的表示"参见"(index)含义的手型符号。3. middle finger :中指。此指居中,名正言顺,且与汉语说法也一致。4. ring finger:无名指。从世界各地的婚俗习惯来说,结婚戒指(wedding ring)戴在这一手指(通常指左手)之上,表示已婚。5. little finger: 顾名思义为小指。在美国和苏格兰,人们又赋予它一个爱称,管pinkie(pinky),后缀-ie (-y)有"小巧可爱"之意。
