趣味英语小测试
一单项选择题
1. 大家都知道,如果路边的小屋上写有W.C.的字样,那大概就是一个可以方便的地方。请问W.C.的完整英语形式是怎样的?
A. Washing Room
B. Washing Case
C. Water Closet
D. Water Caster
1. 答案选C。即W.C. 是由Water Closet的首字母缩略而来的。它主要用于英国英语,指有抽水设备的厕所,但在美国,人们几乎不用它。英语中表示“厕所”的其他表达还有:toilets, Ladies’ Room, Men’s Room, public convenience, restroom, washroom等等
2. 许多同学都有自己的电子邮箱,如168@, pgbook@, hifriend998@等。请问其中的@表示什么意思,该怎么读?
A. @ 的意思是“电脑”,读作“a 外一个圈”。
B. @ 的意思是“邮箱”,读作“圈内一个 a”。
C. @ 的意思是“为”,读音与介词for相同。
D. @ 的意思是“在”,读音与介词 at 相同。
2. 答案选D。@ 在此相当于英语中的介词at,意为“在”,故读作“[At]”,如 pgbook@ 的意思就是“位于在 网站上的一个名叫 pgbook 的邮箱”。
3. 英国人和中国人都喜欢喝茶,但英国人通常将中国人说的“红茶”,说成 ______ tea。
A. red B. white
C. black D. green
3. 答案选C。汉语说“绿茶”,说成英语是 green tea,但汉语说“红茶”,英语习惯上用 black tea表示,而不能按字面意思说成 red tea。
4. 2008年北京奥运会的英文口号是 _______.
A. One world, One dream
B. New Beijing, Great Olympics
C. Great China welcome you
D. Faster, Higher, Stronger
4. 答案选A。2008年北京奥运会的英文口号是One world, one dream。选项B( New Beijing, Great Olympics)是北京申办奥运会的口号,其意为“新北京,新奥运”;而选项C (Faster, Higher, Stronger)则是奥林匹克格言
5. 人有绰号,城市有绰号,有趣的是,有的国家也有绰号,如美国的绰号是______,英国的绰号是______。
A. Aunt Sam, Uncle John
B. New Continent, Great Britain
C. Washington, Elizabeth
D. Uncle Sam, John Bull
答案选D。Uncle Sam 译成汉语是“山姆大叔”,是人们对“美国”“美国人”或“美国政府”的一种诙谐称呼。据说在1812年的英美战争时,美国的军事供应品的箱子上都印着 U.S.的字样(United States 第一个字母的缩写),而当时在美国特罗城(Troy)有一位专门检查政府军用品订货的官员,名叫塞缪尔·威尔逊(Samuel Wilson),他的朋友平日都叫他为“山姆大叔”(Uncle Sam),由于Uncle Sam这两个词的第一个字母缩写也是 U.S.,所以特罗城的人便开玩笑说,这些军用品箱子都是山姆大叔的。后来这个笑话传开了,“山姆大叔”便成了“美国”、“美国人”或“美国政府”的绰号。
John Bull 在汉语中通常译为“约翰牛”,是英国人或英国的绰号。其中也有一个典故:英国18世纪有位讽刺杂文作家叫约翰·阿布什诺特(John Arbuthnot,1667—1735),他于1725年出版了一本叫《约翰·布尔的历史》(The History of John Bull)的书。作者在书中创造了一个矮胖愚笨的绅士形象(即 John Bull),用以讽刺当时辉格党(“自由党”的前身)在长期的西班牙王位继承战争(War of the Spanish Succession)中所扮演的角色。由于书中John Bull这一形象塑造得相当成功,简直就是当时当权者的影子,所以,它就成英国或英国人的绰号
6. 有一种草叫“勿忘我”,许多文人常用它来描述相思与痴情。据说,人们只要将它带在身上,恋人就会将自己铭记于心、永志不忘。这种草的英语名字叫 _______。
A. Don’t forget me
B. forget-me-not
C. no-forgetting grass
D. not-forget-me
答案选B。即“勿忘我草”的英语是forget-me-not,你若不信,随便找本词典查查看。其实,该单词来自一个爱情故事。据说,有一对恋人在海边散步,姑娘被岸边峭壁上的一丛美丽的鲜花吸引住了,小伙子便奋不顾身地去摘花,结果被卷入狂涛巨浪之中。在与海浪的博斗中,他大声向姑娘喊道:“不要忘记我。”为了纪念心爱的恋人,姑娘就把那种花命名为“勿忘我”。现在,人们便用forget-me-not 来象征爱情的“忠贞不渝”。
7. 许多学英语的人为了提高英语听说能力都选择听“美国之音”。“美国之音”的英语形式是_______。
A. American Sound
B. the Sound of America
C. the Voice of America D. Free Voice
“美国之音”的英语形式是the Voice of America,也可简称为VOA。VOA 节目分标准英语广播(Standard English)和特别英语广播(Special English),前者语速快,句子长,词汇量大,适合中级以上英语水平的人;后者语音清晰,语速较慢,句子结构较简单,所用词汇量有限,适合初级英语水平的人。顺便说一句,与“美国之音”一样有名的还有英国的BBC(British Broadcasting Corporation 英国广播公司)。
