3.英语趣味小知识
趣味英语小知识 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。
和时间有关的英语趣味小知识（一）时间是金，其值无价 Time is money.（时间就是金钱或一寸光阴一寸金） Time flies.（光阴似箭，日月如梭） Time has wings.（光阴去如飞） Time is a file that wears and makes no noise.（光阴如锉，细磨无声） Time stays not the fool's leisure.（时间不等闲逛的傻瓜） Time and I against any two.（和时间携起手来，一人抵两人） Time is life and when the idle man kills time, he kills himself.（时间就是生命，懒人消耗时间就是消耗自己的生命。或时间就是生命，节省时间，就是延长生命） Time spent in vice or folly is doubly lost.（消磨于恶习或愚行的时间是加倍的损失） （二）时间是风，去而不返 Time undermines us.（光阴暗中催人才。

所以，今天我想讲几件轶事，都是因为没有理解听到看到的东西而闹出的笑话。也许，从他们的经验中，你也可以学到一些东西。
第一个故事发生在秘鲁，一位美国妇女在餐馆里用餐。她问服务员： Excuse me. Where could I wash my hands？ 服务员把她带到洗手间，可不巧，正有一些工人在粉刷洗手间的墙壁。
工人们一看有人要用洗手间，就准备离开。服务员拦住他们，说： That's Ok. Stay. She only wants to wash her hands. 在英语里，wash my hands实际上是上厕所的委婉说法。
那个服务员按照字面意思理解，结果闹了笑话。 还有一次，一个留学生在国外的学校第一天上学，心里又兴奋又紧张。
一个美国人见到一张新面孔，为了表示友好，就问： Hi! What's the good word？ 留学生一听到这个，立刻傻眼了，他想， My God! I don't know the good word. I've studied English for years, but no one told me about the good word！ 他犹豫再三，想，反正我也不知道，就问问他好了。于是他吞吞吐吐地问： Hello. What's the good word？ 老美听了，很随意地说： Oh, not much. 这下，这个留学生就更吃惊了！ 原来，What's the good word？ 在美语里，是一句问候语，意思是“你还好吗？”但问话的人并不指望你把遇到的高兴的事情都一一告诉他，只是打个招呼而已。
但这个留学生以为对方真的在问什么是Good word，所以闹了笑话，不过还好，也算给他歪打正着了。 下面的故事就更有意思了。
一次，一个美国公司的管理人员给公司一个驻外分部发了一份。

5.有趣的英语小知识
来到美国，说到吃，肯定很多人的第一个反应是The Big Apple，不过千万别误会，这可是你吃不了的苹果，它其实是纽约市的“昵称”。
如果你旅游的目的地是The Big Apple，那我们可要说Congratulations（恭喜）了，那可是个美食之都。 关键词一：食 The Big Apple：来到美国，说到吃，肯定很多人的第一个反应是The Big Apple，不过千万别误会，这可是你吃不了的苹果，它其实是纽约市的“昵称”。
如果你旅游的目的地是The Big Apple，那我们可要说Congratulations（恭喜）了，那可是个美食之都。 Hero：首先，你该到饭店去点一份hero。
别担心，服务生不会当你是“吃英雄”的疯子。Hero是纽约人管大个儿意大利潜水艇三明治的叫法。
当然，如果你一下子吃了十个Heroes，可能别人就会说话了：“Look at that strange gal!She's really out in left field！”这里，out in left field 专门用来形容那些古怪或者是莫名其妙的人。 Surf n'Turf：当然，美食并不只是在纽约才有，如果你有兴趣，不妨到“天使之城”洛杉矶逛一圈，Surf n'Turf就是一种在洛杉矶非常普及的美食，其中主食是海鲜及牛排，可能会比较贵，但还有很多叫“dives”的便宜餐厅，你可以以合理的价格买到。
来到美国，说到吃，肯定很多人的第一个反应是The Big Apple，不过千万别误会，这可是你吃不了的苹果，它其实是纽约市的“昵称”。如果你旅游的目的地是The Big Apple，那我们可要说Congratulations（恭喜）了，那可是个美食之都。

Surf n'Turf：当然，美食并不只是在纽约才有，如果你有兴趣，不妨到“天使之城”洛杉矶逛一圈，Surf n'Turf就是一种在洛杉矶非常普及的美食，其中主食是海鲜及牛排，可能会比较贵，但还有很多叫“dives”的便宜餐厅，你可以以合理的价格买到这种美食。 Taco Stand:Taco Stand是另一种在洛杉矶及附近的加州城市都很常见的美食，tacos来自于拉丁美洲，但在美国加州也非常的流行。
“stand”是一种街边小摊，你可以在那儿买到一些速食。一般这要比McDonalds（麦当劳）或是Burger King（汉堡王）那样的速食连锁店要便宜，但是食物要可口的多哦！ Franks：在美国的街头，你经常会碰到一些Street vendors（街头小贩）高嚷着“Franks”，这时候你可千万别以为他们在寻找名叫Frank的人，Franks在这里是“热狗”的意思。
这些小贩就正在Selling Hot dogs（卖热狗）。 关键词二：玩 “Bro”、“Dude”、“Brother”、“Amigo”：在美国，所有这些词都是用来称呼男性朋友的常用词。
和人打招呼，你可以说“What's up,bro?” Do me a solid：出门在外，问路是少不了的功课。如果你在问路的时候还是用“Would you please do me a favor……”开头，未免显得老土。
你应该说：“Hey can you do me a solid？”，可别小看这样个小小的调整，只是改了一个词，你就显得非常“老江湖”了！ “The 10”、“The 5”、“The 101”：美国有大批的高速公路，如果你有朋友在那里，他可能会开车带你到处逛逛。如果这时你们向当地人问路的话，他们会以以上方式告诉你高速公路的方向。
比如“To get to the Hollywood sign,you need to get on the Ten and……”（要去好莱坞方向的话，你得先上10号高速公路，然后……） $10 cover：如果你还想体会下美国的夜生活，你可能会在酒吧门口看到这样一行字“$10 cover”，这时候，你可千万别浪费时间猜它的意思，赶快掏出10美元吧，否则你可无法进去。 Hail a cab：体验过美国的夜生活，从酒吧出来时候已经很晚了。
这时候可能你的朋友会建议你：“Hey,you should hail a cab.”这时你可千万别心疼钱了，人家是让你赶快叫部出租车回旅店呢。养好精神，第二天才能继续快乐“西游”哦。
小贴士 1.作为游客，无论你的英语多么地道，总可能有一些奸商想打你的主意。这里再教你一招：如果你认为有人在捉弄或是欺骗你的话，你就可以这么说：“Don't jerk my chain！”意思是别想欺骗我！学会了这句话，你的“西游”之路上麻烦就会少很多了。
2.吃了这么多的美食，玩了这么多地方，让人感觉这样逍遥的旅行有些不真实了，这时你可以来一句“I'm keeping it real”，在任何城市中，你说这句话可都是对这个城市一个极高的评价。
6.求英语有趣的小文章（要有翻译）
1.Learning:A Lifelong Career【学习：一生的事业】 As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of uncertainty. Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career. 学习之于心灵，就像食物之于身体一样。
摄取了适量的营养食物，我们的身体得以生长而肌肉得以发达。同样地，我们应该日复一日不断地学习以保持我们敏锐的心智能力，并扩充我们的智力容量。
不断的学习提供我们用不尽的燃料，来驱使我们磨利我们的推理、分析和判断的能力。持续的学习是在信息时代中跟时代并驾齐驱的最稳当的方法，也是在变动的世代中成功的可靠保证。
一旦学习停止，单调贫乏的生活就开始了。视学校为汲取知识的唯一场所是种常见的谬误。
相反地，学习应该是一种无终止的历程，从生到死。由于世界一直快速地在变动，只要学习停顿数日就将使人落后。
更糟的是，蛰伏在我们潜意识深处的兽性本能就会复活，削弱我们追求高贵理想的意志，弱化我们扫除成功障碍的决心，而且扼杀我们净化我们人格的欲望。缺少学习将不可避免地导致心灵的停滞，甚至更糟地，使其僵化。
因此，为了保持心理年轻，我们必须将学习当作一生的事业。 2.heavy shoolwork【课业繁重】 In my opinion, the schoolwork now being assigned to high school students is too heavy. While it is true that students need to study, they need other things as well if they are to grow into healthy and well-rounded adults. High should be allowed more time for play. Plying is not wasting time, as some think. It gives them physical exercise, and also exercise their imagination. Which tends to be stifled by too much study. Finally, the pressure put on high school students by excessive schoolwork can cause serious stress, which is unhealthy physically and mentally. I do not advocate the elimination of schoolwork. I do think, however, that a reduction of the current heavy load would be beneficial to students and to the society as a whole. 我认为目前高中生的课业实在太重了，虽然说学生的确应当念书，但是要想长大成为健全的人，他门还需要一些其它的东西，所以应该给高中生较多从事娱乐的时间。
娱乐并不如某些人所想的，是在浪费时间，它可以让学生锻炼身体，发挥被繁重课业扼杀的想象力。此外，繁重的课业加诸在高中生身上的压力可能引起严重的情绪紧张，这对身心都有害。
我并非主张废除学校课业，但是我认为减轻目前繁重的课业对于学生和整个社会都是有益的。 3.Time【时间】 Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change. Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I've done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time. 时光一去不复返，这是我上学期清楚学到的教训。
我浪费很多时间四处游荡，以致于我的成绩开始退步。最后我终于了解到我必须有所作为；该是痛改前非的时候了。
现在我有一个明智运用时间的新方法。我已将闹钟早拨半小时，这将使我这一天的作息提前开始。
我也决定将我所做的一切及做这些事的时间记录下来。回顾我所做的事情会启发我如何重新安排我的时间。
4.Work and Play【工作与娱乐】 Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact, they complement each other. As the saying goes, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." A life burdened with work leads you nowhere, for you would get 。

I can get his cloak off more quickly than you can.” “We will see about that,” said the sun. “I will let you try first.” So the wind tried to make the man take off his cloak. He blew and blew, but the man only pulled his cloak more closely around himself. “I give up,” said the wind at last. “I cannot get his cloak off.” Then the sun tried. He shone as hard as he could. The man soon became hot and took off his cloak. （有一天风跟太阳说： “看看那个沿着路上走的人.我可以比你快让他把披风脱下来.） （“我们等着看吧，”太阳说， “我让你先试.） （因此风尝试让那个人把披风脱下来.他用力地吹，可是那个人把披风拉得更紧.） （“我放弃了，”风最后说， “我无法让他把披风脱下来.”然后由太阳试试看.他尽可能地晒他.不久，那个人很热就把披风脱下来了.） 第一篇：THE NEWSPAPER 报 纸 Nowadays the newspaper possesses considerable value Everybody should read it.

9.英语中有趣的短语或小知识
关于小知识的：
在生活中我们经常看到英文字母，但是意思却各不相同。现在给大家举几个例子：
处方笺上的“R”：在医院的处方上印有一个大写字母“R”，意思是“取下列药品”。图书统一书号上的“R”：有的图书统一书号后面印有一个“R”和两组数字，这里的“R”表示该书是少年儿童读物。商标上的“R”：我们经常看到在商品包装的一角上印有一个“R”标记，它表示这些商品的商标是经过注册的。注册商标符号是世界通用的。电影上的“R”：是Restricted的第一字母。在美国指限级电影，未满17岁者必须有成年的监护者带领才能入场。荧光屏上的“R”：当我们收看电视节目时，有时电视屏幕会出现一个标记，并且还会一闪一闪的，它是英文Repeat的第一个字母，表示“慢镜头重放”。
另外，几何和工程图中的“R”表示半径；热学中的“R”表示普通气体常数；电学中“R”表示电阻；试卷中的“R”表示正确。
