英语小知识[全]

关于动物

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。

Santa Claus' reindeer(圣诞老人的驯鹿)

你知道圣诞老人的驯鹿是怎么来的吗？它们是Clement Clarke Moore （1779-1863 美国作家）所写的‘A Visit from St Nicholas’1823作品里出现的Dasher、Dancer、Prancer、Vixen、Comet、Cupid、Donner、Blitzen等8头

the world is my oyster （世界是我的牡蛎）

if the world is my oyster 经常作为“如果我的梦想得以实现的话”的意思使用。该句来源于莎士比亚的The Merry Wives of Windsor (1600)Ⅱⅱ2中，恶棍Pistol对决意不肯借钱的Sir John Falstaff说、“Why then the world's mine oyster, / Which I with sword will open”（这个世界如同我的牡蛎一样，我可以用刀子把它撬开。）人们应用这句话是常把原文的mine该成my这句话也常常出现在Willy Loman的台词中。

horses for courses

不同的马适合不同的跑道

20世纪后期成为广泛使用的习惯用语，由不同的跑道为不同的马设置这一事实而来。

〔例1〕 We like to try to provide a wide range of hobbies for our members to choose from We know there are horses for courses

〔例2〕 This drug worked for your mother but it might not work for youThere are horses for courses in the medical world

中文歌词：

我正凝视窗外

大雨倾盆而下

当你离开时，我心情低汤到谷底

但我不会就此沉沦

我不需要任何肩膀

我要像战士般武装自己

我只想感受些我不懂的事

我只是想奔越大雨

我只是想舞越苦痛

我只想感受那节奏，感受那鼓声

且让我心跳搏动加剧

听任我感性的内心向理性的头脑呛声吧[回响]

心跳搏动加剧占领理智的头脑 [回响]

心大声发言

想感受那节奏，感受那鼓声

且让我心跳搏动加剧

听任我感性的内心向理性的头脑呛声吧

我，我一直太过执著於如何让你回头

我要放自己一个周末

然後再也不打算回去了

我不需要任何肩膀

我要像战士般武装自己

我只想感受些我不懂的事

我只是想奔越大雨

我只是想舞越苦痛

我只想感受那节奏，感受那鼓声

且让我心跳搏动加剧

听任我感性的内心向理性的头脑呛声吧[回响]

心跳搏动加剧占领理智的头脑 [回响]

心大声发言

想感受那节奏，感受那鼓声

且让我心跳搏动加剧

听任我感性的内心向理性的头脑呛声吧

噢，放手吧

吔，这样的感觉真好，如此正确

噢，我仅知道…

我听任我…

心跳搏动、听任我心喊话 [回响:大声点儿]

心跳搏动、听任我心喊话 [回响:大声点儿]

心跳搏动、听任我心喊话 [回响:大声点儿]

大声点儿[回响]

我只是想奔越大雨

我只是想舞越苦痛

我只想感受那节奏，感受那鼓声

且让我心跳搏动加剧

听任我感性的内心向理性的头脑呛声吧[回响]

心跳搏动加剧占领理智的头脑 [回响]

心大声发言

想感受那节奏，感受那鼓声

且让我心跳搏动加剧

听任我感性的内心向理性的头脑呛声吧

英文歌词：

Charice - Louder

Louder (x4)

I'm staring out of my window

And the rain is pouring down

When you left, I was so low

But I'm not gonna drown

I don't need no shoulder

I'm gonna be a soldier

I just wanna feel somethin' I don't understand

I'm just gonna run right through the rain

I'm just gonna dance right through the pain

I just wanna feel that rhythm, feel that drum

Let my heart beat louder

Let my heart speak louder than my head (head, head, head)

Heart beat louder than my head (head, head, head)

Heart speak louder

Wanna feel that rhythm, feel that drum

Let my heart beat louder

Let my heart speak louder than my head

I, I am over overthinking of how to get you back

I'm checking out for the weekend

And I ain't going back

I don't need no shoulder

I'm gonna be a soldier

I just wanna feel somethin' I don't understand

Oh, letting go

Yeah it feels so good, so right

Oh, all I know

Is that I let my heart beat

Heart speak louder than my louder than my

Heart beat heart speak louder than my louder than my

Heart beat heart speak louder than my louder than my louder, louder, louder, louder

Deal with a man as he deals with you

以其人之道还治其人之身

Look before you leap

No pains，no gains

不劳则无获

Time and tide wait for no man

时不待人

Strike while the iron is hot

趁热打铁

It's never too late to mend

亡羊补牢

There is no smoke without fire

无风不起浪

Kill two birds with one stone
