口语:“马屁精”这么说!
地道表达:
brown-nose:献殷勤,拍马屁
解词释义:
brown-nose的本意是“棕色的”。在西方人看来,鼻子之所以成为棕色的是由于拍马匹造成的。因为该习语引申为“拍马屁,献殷勤”。名词为“拍马屁、献殷勤的人”,也可作动词使用。
支持范例:
Jack is a brown-nose and none of his colleagues likes him in the company.
杰克是个马屁精,公司里没有一个同事喜欢他。
I don't like Peter. He's such a brown-nose.
我不喜欢彼得。他真是个马屁精。
Tom is so good at brown-nosing the boss.
但是他最擅长的`是拍老板的马屁。
地道口语:“防微杜渐”怎么表达?
短语释义:
Nip in thebud消灭于萌芽状态。园艺学家早就证实为了结出饱满的花朵或果实,农夫必须拔除多余的芽苞 以免其吸收过多的养分。而被拔除的芽苞是绝不会长出果实的。所以nip in the bud 有“防患未然,防微杜渐”之意。Nip是“剪断”、“摘取”;bud是“蓓蕾”。 蓓蕾还未成熟就给采下来,哪里还有开花机会呢?Remember: nip in the bud表示:防患于未然;消灭于萌芽状态。 能知错就改的人是不错的,但是,如果能自己发现错误,并立刻改正,这就高了一个境界。
eg:
A: My fourteen-year-old son has just started smoking. What should I do?
我那十四岁的儿子开始抽烟了,我该怎么办呢?
B: Ask him to stop right away. Bad habits should be nipped in thebud.
叫他别再抽了。坏习惯应该防微杜渐,也就是说应该被消灭在萌芽状态。

Conversation Tips
交谈沟通秘籍
* Speak about location: Americans love to talk about location. When speaking to a stranger, ask them where they are from and then make a connection with that place. For example: "Oh, I have a friend who studied in Los Angeles. He says it's a beautiful place to live." Most Americans will then willingly talk about their experiences living or visiting that particular city or area.
谈论地点:美国人喜欢谈论地点。和陌生人说话的时候,可以问问他们从哪里来然后找到自己跟那个地方的联系。比如可以说:“啊,我有个朋友在洛杉矶学习,他说那地方很漂亮。”这时大部分美国人就会很愿意谈起他们居住或者到过那个特殊的地方或地区的经历。
* Talk about work: Americans commonly ask "What do you do?". It's not considered impolite (as in some countries) and is a popular topic of discussion between strangers.
谈论工作:美国人通常会问“What do you do?”在某些国家会被认为这是不礼貌的,但美国不是的,这只是陌生人之间聊天的一个流行话题。
* Talk about sports: Americans love sports! However, they love American sports. When speaking about football, most Americans understand "American Football", not soccer.
谈论运动:美国人超爱运动!不过,他们喜欢美国的运动。如果说到football,大部分美国人会理解成橄榄球而不是足球。
* Be careful when expressing ideas about race, religion or other sensitive topics: The United States is a multi-cultural society. Especially in the last few years, Americans are trying very hard to be sensitive to other cultures and ideas. Talking about sensitive topics like religion or beliefs, is often avoided in order to be sure not to offend someone of a different belief system. This is often referred to as being "politically correct".
说到种族、宗教或者其他敏感话题要小心:美国是一个多文化的社会。特别是近几年,美国人对其他文化和观点非常特别的敏感。像宗教或者信仰之类的敏感话题通常都不会在谈话中提及,以免冒犯别人。这就是经常被提到的“政治正确”。
你住在“fat city”吗?
释义:
fat本义是“油腻的”,引申为“富裕的,茂盛的”,而city是泛指“地方,地域”。fat city原意是“极为舒适的生活环境,富裕”,后引申为“舒适成功的条件”。
Eg.
You can tell that thatguyis in fat city .
看得出那个男孩生活富裕。
You can tell by their car that they are in fat city.
看他们的车你就能知道他们生活富裕。
We used to live a dog's life, but now we are in fat city.
那时我们过着猪狗不如的生活,如今大家都富裕起来了。
She gathered up the gold coins, carried them away and was in fat city for the rest of her life.
她拾起金币带走,从此她一生都过着非常富裕的生活。
“Dutch”在英语中没几个好词?
在“无敌舰队”莎士比亚时代以前,即16世纪以前英荷两国人民一直友好相处,在所有英国文学作品中,荷兰人通常是很受尊敬的。从16世纪末起,随着航海业和商业的迅速发展,英西荷等过的竞争日趋激烈,1588年英国人在英吉利海峡击溃了有130多艘战船组成的西班牙“无敌舰队”,西班牙的还上*从此一蹶不振,英国成了还上霸王。
但是到了17世纪荷兰崛起,英国的霸主地位受到了挑战,到了17世纪末,荷兰跃为世界上最大的殖民帝国之一,成为英国海上贸易最强大的竞争对手,于是在一些英国人中间产生了对荷兰人的强烈敌意。为了对竞争对手施以攻击,他们把轻蔑等情绪注入并表现在词语之中。
Go Dutch(各人付各的帐,平担费用)意思和Dutch treat一样beat the Dutch:了不起,另人吃惊;
do the Dutch:自杀;Dutch auction:先开高价然后降价的荷兰式拍卖;Dutch bargain:饮酒时达成的交易;
Dutch comfort:比下有余的安慰;
Dutch concert:酒醉后的*;
Dutch defense:虚张声势;
Dutch lunch:各自自带食物或各自付费的午间聚餐;
Dutch gold:假黄金,金色铜
