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传真,要求对方把职员的人数报上来。他是这么说的: I need a head count telling the number of people in your factory, the number of people in your office, broken。

3.英语小知识

让我们学习一些有趣的小知识吧。

以下是一些的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。和时间有关的英语趣味小知识职场英语 2010-02-24 17:52:16 阅读264 评论0 字号:大中小 订阅 (一) 时间是金,其值无价1. Time is money.(时间就是金钱或一寸光阴一寸金)2. Time flies.(光阴似箭,日月如梭)3.

5.小知识的英文怎么写

姚明: Yao Ming (Chinese: 姚明; pinyin: Yáo Míng; born September 12, 1980 in Shanghai, China) is a popular professional Chinese basketball player. He currently plays center for the Houston Rockets in the National Basketball Association. Yao Ming is the 4th tallest player in NBA basketball history at a height of 7 feet, 6 1/2 inches (2.30 m). CBA career Yao debuted in the Chinese Basketball Association as a presumably shorter 17-year old. He put together a solid year for a young player, scoring 10 points and grabbing 9 rebounds a game in 1997-98. Missing much of the following season to injury, he returned in 1999-2000 with 21 points, a league-best 14 rebounds, and over 5 blocks per game. The 2000-01 season proved highly fruitful for Yao, as he became MVP of the league at the age of 20 with a fantastic year, scoring 27 points and grabbing an exceptional 19 rebounds per game. He played well in the Sydney 2000 Summer Olympics, having been a veteran of international competition for several years, but it was his MVP selection that put him in the minds of NBA scouts. However, after the CBA assured him that he would not get released from their league if he entered the draft, Yao chose not to enter the 2001 NBA Draft. This proved to be a good decision, as he played even better in 2001-2002, scoring 32 points and grabbing 19 rebounds per game with a 72% field goal percentage, second in the league in both points and rebounds per game. He won a sportsmanship award and, more importantly, led his team, the Shanghai Sharks, to a CBA title. He was even more dominant in the playoffs and had a game in which he made all 21 shots he attempted. Yao automatically became eligible for the NBA Draft in 2002, with international players being eligible if they were 22 at the start of the NBA season. Widely considered a top prospect, he allegedly wowed scouts with a terrific exhibition at a draft camp. It caught the interest of the team with the #1 overall draft pick, the Houston Rockets. The Rockets needed a center after the departure of long-time star Hakeem Olajuwon a year before, and decided Yao would be able to fill their void. In the 2002 NBA Draft, Yao became the first international player without U.S. college experience to be selected first overall. During the 2002 offseason, Yao played with the Chinese national team at the FIBA World Championships in Indianapolis. He made the all-tournament team in Indianapolis, alongside fellow NBA rookie-to-be Manu Ginobili and established NBA stars Dirk Nowitzki and Peja Stojakovic. This helped reinforce his reputation and led many to predict that Yao would become the next dominant NBA center.。

公历起源于古罗马历法。罗马的英语原来只有10 个月,古罗马皇帝决定增加两个月放在年尾,后来朱里斯*撒大帝把这两个月移到年初,成为1月.2月,原来的1月.2月便成了3月.4月,依次类推。

这就是今天世界沿用的公历。 January——1月 在罗马传说中,有一位名叫雅努斯的守护神,生有先后两副脸,一副回顾过去,一副要眺望未来。

人们认为选择他的名字作为除旧迎新的第一个月月名,很有意义。英语January,便是由这位守护神的拉丁文名字January演变而来的。

February——2月 每年2 月初,罗马人民都要杀牲饮酒,欢庆菲勃卢姆节。这一天,人们常用一种牛、草制成的名叫Februa的鞭子,抽打不育的妇女,以求怀孕生子。

这一天,人们还要忏悔自己过去一年的罪过,洗刷自己的灵魂,求得神明的饶恕,使自己成为一个贞洁的人。英语2月February,便是由拉丁文Februar-ius(即菲勃卢姆节)演变而来。

March-----3月 3月,原是罗马旧历法的1 月,新年的开始。凯撒大帝改革历法后,原来的1月变成3月,但罗马人仍然把3 月看做是一年的开始。

另外,按照传统习惯,3月是每年出征远战的季节。为了纪念战神玛尔斯,人们便把这位战神的拉丁名字作为3月的月名。

英语3月March,便是由这位战神的名字演变而来的。 April——4月 罗马的4月,正是大地回春.鲜花初绽的美好季节。

英文4月April便由拉丁文April(即开花的日子)演变而来。 May——5月 罗马神话中的女神玛雅,专门司管春天和生命。

为了纪念这位女神,罗马人便用她的名字——拉丁文Maius命名5月,英文5月May便由这位女神的名字演变而来。 June——6月 罗马神话中的裘诺,是众神之王,又是司管生育和保护妇女的神。

古罗马对她十分崇 敬,便把6月奉献给她,以她的名字——拉丁文Junius来命名6 月。英语6月June便由这位女神的名字演变而来。

也有学者认为,Junius可能是个代拉丁家族中一个显赫贵族的姓氏。 July——7月 罗马统治者朱里斯*凯撒大帝被刺死后,著名的罗马将军马克*按东尼建议将凯撒大帝诞生的7月,用凯撒的名字——拉丁文Julius(即朱里斯)命名之。

这一建议得到了元老院的通过。英语7月July由此演变而来。

August——8月 朱里斯*凯撒死后,由他的甥孙屋大维续任罗马皇帝。为了和凯撒齐名,他也想用自己的名字来命名一个月份。

他的生日在9月,但他选定8月。因为他登基后,罗马元老院在8 月授予他Augustus(奥古斯都)的尊号。

于是,他决定用这个尊号来命名8月。原来8月比7月少一天,为了和凯撒平起平坐,他又决定从2月中抽出一天加在8月上。

从此,2月便少了一天。英语8月August便由这位皇帝的拉丁语尊号演变而来。

September——9月 老历法的7月,正是凯撒大帝改革历法后的9月,拉丁文Septem是"7"月的意思。虽然历法改革了,但人们仍袭用旧名称来称呼9月。

英语9月September,便由此演变而来。 October——10月 英语10月,来自拉丁文Octo,即"8"的意思。

它和上面讲的9月一样,历法改了,称呼仍然沿用未变。 November——11月 罗马皇帝奥古斯都和凯撒都有了自己名字命名的月份,罗马市民和元老院要求当时的罗马皇帝梯比里乌斯用其名命名11月。

但梯比里乌斯没有同意,他明智地对大家说,如果罗马每个皇帝都用自己的名字来命名月份,那么出现了第13个皇帝怎么办?于是,11月仍然保留着旧称Novem,即拉丁文"9"的意思。英语11月November便由此演变而来。

December——12月 罗马皇帝琉西乌斯要把一年中最后一个月用他情妇的Amagonius的名字来命名,但遭但元老院的反对。于是,12月仍然沿用旧名Decem,即拉丁文"10"的意思。

英语12月December,便由此演变而来。
