“小三”在英语里怎么说
Jessica 在北京学汉语，她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。今天是吴琼要问的：“小三”在英文里怎么说？
Jessica: Wuqiong, 给我介绍一部好看的中文电视剧吧！
WQ: 嗯„„最近很流行小三剧，Do you like to watch “little three” shows，Jessica? Jessica: Little three? What's that?
WQ: 小三啊！你不知道吗? 就是外遇、情妇、第三者的意思。小三美语怎么说？不是 little three 吗？
Jessica: Haha!小三 is called a mistress, or “the other woman.”
WQ: 哦，我知道了，妻子以外的那个女人，the other woman就是小三。这些小三真可恶！人家夫妻好好的，她非要来插一脚。
Jessica: Calm down, I'm sure your boyfriend doesn't have one.WQ: 那当然。但我要是有朋友当别人的小三，我一定骂她，叫她不要去破坏别人家庭！这句话美语要怎么说?
Jessica: 你可以告诉她，Don't be a home-wrecker.WQ: Wreck是动词，有破坏的意思，所以 home-wrecker就是破坏家庭的人。一提起小三我就„„
Jessica: Wuqiong, you should really stop watching those TV shows, they're not good for you!
WQ: 可是剧情很吸引人啊！我喜欢看她们勾心斗角。怎么说？
Jessica: In English, we use the verb scheme.To scheme means to make secret and devious plots.WQ: 我明白了，耍心眼，勾心斗角就是 to scheme.哎呀，不早了，我得赶快回去看电视了！Jessica: Hold on, before you leave, tell me what you've learned today!WQ: 第一，小三叫 mistress 或者 the other woman;
第二，破坏别人家庭的人是 home wrecker;
第三，耍心计是 to scheme!
第二篇：英语里各种亲戚的称谓
有位男士妙用表示大学学位的三个英文词讲了一则幽默：人生会经历的三个阶段：没结婚的时候是无忧无虑的bachelor（单身汉）；结婚以后得做主持家事的一家之主（master）；而一旦孩子出生，就变成了无微不至的大夫（doctor 即Ph.D.）。这三个英语词bachelor、master、doctor(Ph.D.)原本的一层含义分别是“学士、硕士、博士”，这里转义一说，倒也能说得通，而且还挺传神。
报纸上有时候常会说起某人是个eligible bachelor，富有、家境好、且又是单身，即所谓的“钻石王老五”是也。“王老五”们找到意中人，准备跨入婚姻的殿堂之前，西方有习俗，在婚礼的前一天，准新郎得邀请一帮铁哥们开个bachelor party，尽情狂闹一番，因为第二天开始就得做中规中矩的尽责丈夫了。调皮、促狭一些的男友们有时会想出些歪点子，捉弄一下准新郎，以泄惋惜、妒忌、羡慕之情。
结婚以后，双方的immediate family（直系亲属）就都变成了对方的in-laws（姻亲）——father-in-law（岳父/公公），mother-in-law（岳母/婆婆），sister-in-law（姑子/姨子/嫂子/弟媳），brother-in-law（内兄、弟/大伯子/小叔子/姐夫/妹夫）等等。
一看中英文的对照，就知道英语对亲属的称谓比起中文要简单得多。中文按年龄、男方还是女方的关系等等为亲属冠之以不同的称呼，而西方人似乎不太在乎这位亲戚是父亲这边的（on the father's side）还是母亲那边的（on the mother's side），一视同仁，给一个称呼。
更有意思的是对distant relatives（远亲）的称呼。cousin一词不分男女，概括了所有“堂兄弟/姐妹；表兄弟/姐妹”。而 “侄子/外甥” 都是nephew；“侄女/外甥女”则都是 niece。不过，尽管英语中的称谓不如中文的分工细致, “Blood is thicker than water”（血浓于水）是东、西方人都认同的。
那么，既然英语的家庭关系词汇不难，我们来看看下面这段话，你是否能据此画出一张 family tree(家谱图)？
Stephanie is the youngest in her family.Her elder brother Mark is married with a son Kevin.Her sister-in-law Rose used to go to the same high school with Stephanie.Her sister Kate married Thomas Hawkins last year and they've just had a baby daughter Millie.Stephanie adores her nephew and niece.Bart and Marie are Stephanie's cousins.They are children of Barbara and Peter.Aunt Barbara is the younger sister of Stephanie's father Gordon.Stephanie's mother Joy had a younger sister Liz who is divorced with a daughter Lily.Both grandparents on Stephanie's father's side have passed away.But her mother's parents Lucas and Nancy are living not far away from their house.转自昆明韦博国际英语
第三篇：英语里的大便、小便、放屁怎么说
一名中国留学生初到美国，在机场找厕所，问老外：Where is W.C.？」老外听不懂。一名中国太太到医院生产，洋护士问她：「Did you have a bowel movement？」她却听不懂。还有人学了几十年的英语，还不晓得英语里的「大便」、「小便」、「放屁」真正应该怎么说……
至于性毛病，更是老中难于启齿、欲语还羞的尴尬。见到洋医生，窘迫万分，不知如何开口才是，真有「犹抱琵琶半遮面」的感受。
以下为一些「禁忌」（taboo）的美语之整理。毕竟这些都是咱们日常生活的一部分，说不定有一天这些「禁忌」之语还能「派上用场」呢！
厕所
在美国一般都叫rest room或bath room（男女厕均可）或分别叫做 men‘s room 或
ladies‘ room（=powder room），不过在飞机上，则叫 lavatory，在军中又叫 latrine。至于 W.C.（water closet）仍是过去英国人用的，在美国，几乎没有人使用。
小便
最普通的说法是 to urinate（名词是 urination），如果去看病，护士为了化验小便，就会给你一个杯子说：「Will（could）you urinate in this cup？」医生或许也会问：「Do you have trouble urinating？」=Do you have difficulty voiding？（小便有困难吗？）
此外，还有其他的说法：to piss = to take a piss = to take a leak = to void = to empty。例如：
I need to piss = I have to take a leak.How often do you get up at night to void？（晚上起床小便几次？）
此外，john（j 小写时，不是男人名字）是 bath room 或 toilet 的意思（也叫 outhouse），这通常是指在户外工作场地所使用的临时或流动性厕所（有时前面也加 portable 一字）。不过也有老外把家里的厕所叫做john。例如：
There are several（portable）johns in the construction site.（在建筑场地有几个临时厕所。）
He went to the john a few minutes ago.（他在几分钟前上了厕所。）
The manual labours have to use(portable)johns during their working hours.（劳动者在工作时间内需要使用流动性厕所。）
不过，小孩多半用 to pee。例如：
The boy needs to pee.然而，「小便检查」又叫做 urine test，因为这里的 urine 是化验的样品（specimen）。例如：
Do I need a urine test?
注意：to piss off 是片语，又是指对人生气或对事物的不满。不过这是不礼貌的片语，少用为妙。例如：
He pissed me off.= He made me angry.He always pisses off（at）the society.（对社会不满）
如果「小便」有毛病，也可以告诉医生说：
My urine is cloudy and it smells strong.（有浊尿，味道很重）
I have pus（或air）in urine.（尿有泡沫）（pus = cloudy;air = bubble）
I dribble a little urine after I have finished urinating.（小便后还会滴滴答答。）（即失禁毛病）
I am passing less urine than usual.（小便的量比平时少）
大便
一般是用 to make（或 have）a bowel movement 或 to take a shit。如果看病，医生常问：「Do you have regular bowel movement？」（大便正常吗？）（说得斯文些，就是「大肠在转动」）
此外，还有其他的说法： to defecate =to discharge excrement（或 feces）=to take feces（或 faeces）。例如：
The patient needs to take a shit.（=to make a bowel movement）
不过，小孩多半是用 to make a poo poo 或 to make a BM.。例如：
The boy had a stinky BM.（大便奇臭。）
但是「大便检查」倒叫做 stool exam，因为 stool 也是一种化验的样品。
例如：
The doctor has to exam his stool.（医生要检查他的大便。)
放屁
在美语里最常用的是 to expel gas 或 to fart 或 to make（或 pass）gas。例如：
医生有时问：「How often do you expel（或 make 或 pass）gas？」（你放屁的次数很多吗？）
Is the gas expelled by belching？（是否打嗝后就会放屁呢？）（动词是belch）
He said the more he ate, the more he farted.（吃的愈多，放屁也愈多。）
He has passed more gas than usual within the last two days.（过去两天中，他放屁比平常多。）
Be careful not to fart in the public.（注意在公共场所不可放屁。）
至于消化不良，大便不通或拉肚子，也有不同的说法。例如：
I have an upset stomach.（消化不良）= I have heartburn.= I have indigestion.注意：Heartburn 是指胃不舒服，不是「心痛」（heartache）
Something has upset my stomach for two weeks.（胃不舒服有两星期了。）
He has（persistent）constipation.（或 irregularity）（他经常便秘。)或
He has been unusually constipated.（便秘很反常。）或
He is having problem with irregularity.（或 constipation);或 He has no bowel movement for the past few days.He has bouts of diarrhea.=He is having trouble with diarrhea.（他拉了一阵肚子。）
He can see trace of blood and pus or mucus in his stool（或 bowel movement）（大便时可看到血丝和粘膜。）
补充：He got pissed on head 他很生气。（想想别人在你头上撒尿是啥感觉？哈哈）
Pee or poo ? 拉屎还是尿尿？这个也是个习惯用语：）
尿，较科学的称谓是urine(尿液)，通俗点的就叫piss。不要小看这个piss，里面学问还蛮大的。在我上中学时，第一次学到原来女孩尿尿不叫 piss，而是wee。据我们的英文老师说，piss是男生专用的，因为我们有小弟弟，女生没有，所以就是wee。读起来，听发音还真像那么回事。
piss是比较粗鲁的词语，一般大人们是不用的，除了骂人的时候有时会来一句piss off(滚开)。如果想说我要去尿尿，男人通常会说，I'll go take a leak。当然，这种话只能在男人堆里说的，在女人面前，就要说得文雅一点，I am going to the toilet。厕所是比较文明的称谓，老土一点的就叫茅坑。英语里也有相对的词，loo，有时也会听到人们用这个代替toilet。到了餐厅里就妙了，连 toilet这个词说出来都好像会倒胃口似的，一定要弄得高雅点。我去下洗手间，I am going to the rest room。到了更高境界，连你要去哪里都不用说了，只要一句Please excuse me，大家就心知肚明了。除非你的境界够高，能够熟用excuse me，我是不赞同用什么rest room的。Toilet就是toilet，有什么不好意思的。如果人人都以平常心对待，哪有必要故作高雅?
piss不一定都翻译成尿的。我第一次听到澳洲人说drink piss时，吓我一大跳。心想怎么这儿还兴这个? 后来搞懂了，原来是去喝酒的意思，go get pissed。
pee 不及物动词 vi.1.【粗】撒尿 名词 n.1.【粗】小便,尿
urinate 不及物动词 vi.1.撒尿,小便,排尿 1.排尿 2.泌尿 3.解尿 urine 名词 n.1.尿[U] 1.尿 2.尿液 3.下泉 pass water 小便, 撒尿 排尿
附言：
1.pee 带【粗】，是指比较粗俗的说法，通常用于日常口语或者调皮语境下，在哄小孩尿尿的时候，也常用pee pee； 2.urinate 是动词； 3.urine是名词；
4.pass water是比较少见的词组用法。
请根据需要选用。
上厕所英语口语流行怎么说? Source: Onion 2009-07-22 我要投稿 恒星英语学习论坛 Favorite
汉语“去方便一下”是一句婉转语，即“去洗手间”。如今在一些正式场合，很少有人会说“去厕所”。在过去，“厕所”本来也是婉辞，原意是“侧面的房子”。（“茅房”过去也是婉辞，因为居住的正房多用瓦盖，而厕所则比较简陋，通常用茅草盖。）英语里表示“厕所”的婉辞更多。在多年前的英语课堂上，我们认识了washroom和WC（water closet的缩略语，原指“盥洗室”）。这两个词如今在美国已很少被使用，现在美国人一般说restroom或bathroom，英国人则多说lavatory（在美语中，只有火车或飞机上的厕所才被叫做lavatory）。此外，英国人常用toilet指厕所或马桶，而美国人则只用其指马桶。
一些文化人还给“如厕”起了许多有趣的名称，比如:comfort station, cloakroom, retiring room, public convenience, house of amusement, chamber of commerce, old soldiers' home。
在英国，人们有时将“厕所”称为loo，据说由于英国许多门牌号为100号的房屋多为厕所，loo与数字100形似，故而得名。
在一些非正式场合，表示“想去方便一下”的说法则更多：
男士：I'd like / I want / I am going...to go somewhere, to go into retreat, to go to the bank, to go to the john, to go to my private office, to go to Egypt, to go to tap a kidney, to cash a check, to pluck a rose, to shake hands with an old friend, to ease oneself, to shoot a lion, to release one's nature, to water the lawn, to shake dew off the lily.女士：I'd like / I want / I am going...to fix one's face, to powder one's nose, to freshen up, to get some fresh air, to go and see one's aunt.在聚会时，英美朋友如需要去方便一下，他们有时并不明说，而是说May I be excused？或May I adjourn? 这时，你千万不要问他/她要去哪里。当然，小朋友们通常会直截了当地说：I wanna pee pee/piss/make water/go to the pot.如果你在外国朋友家做客，想去方便又不知道厕所在哪，不妨婉转地问主人：What is the geography/layout of the house?
小J还记得当年学英语的时候，老师叫我们一些washroom，WC。或者是一些委婉的说法：什么pick some flowers，什么answer the call of nature之类的啦。
小J无意中产生了搜集这些委婉语的想法，现在给大家展示一下劳动成果吧，O(∩_∩)O~
正常语：restroom，bathroom。老美喜欢用。
lavatory，英国人用的多，在美式英语中，这个词只是指火车飞机上的厕所。
幽默说法：comfort room、cloakroom（衣帽间）、the smallest room（有点道理。）public convenience（这个比较文绉绉）、house of amusement、chamber of commerce（这个囧），marble palace（不评价）、old soldier's home、the fourth（据说十九世纪的剑桥大学生早上起来，第一是祈祷，第二是用餐，第三是吸烟，第四就是这个啦），loo（因为英国很多大楼的100号都是厕所 的说）
动词短语：to go to the bank（好吧，我承认这个很出乎意料）、to shake hands with an old friend、to shoot a lion(有点那啥)、to see a man about a dog(这是哪儿跟哪儿啊，囧)、to shake dew off the lily(文艺范儿)、to water the lawn(原始啊)、to look at those foul verses in Poets' corner（“诗人角”是Westminster Abby中埋葬诗人的墓地，这里主要是指厕所中各种乱涂的打油诗）。
翻译小测：外国客人问你：what is the geography of the house，他真正想干什么呢，嘘~~~知道请回表情。
第四篇：全英说课
Teaching plan for Unit 16 book 1
Good afternoon, everyone, It’s my great pleasure to be here sharing my lesson with you.The content of my lesson is Senior English for China Book1B Unit 16 Scientists at work.I’ll be ready to begin this lesson from five parts.Analysis of the teaching material, the teaching methods, the studying methods, the teaching procedure, and Blackboard design.First, let me talk about the teaching material.Part 1 Teaching Material:
This unit is about science and scientists.By studying of this unit, we’ll enable the students to know the serious attitude towards science and develop the interest in science.At the same time, Let the students learn how to give instructions.this lesson plays an important part in the English teaching in this unit.This is an important lesson in Book One.From this lesson, it starts asking the Ss to grasp contents of each passage.Therefore, this lesson is in the important position of the teaching material.If the Ss can learn it well, it will be helpful to make the Ss learn the rest of this unit.As we all know , reading belongs to the input during the process of the language learning.The input has great effect on output, such as speaking and writing.According to the new standard curriculum and the syllabus(新课程标 准和教学大纲), after studying the teaching material and analyzing the rule of children’s growing of mind, I think the learning aims are the followings:
1.Knowledge objects:
a)The Ss can hear, read, and use the main sentence patterns
b)The Ss can understand the content of the lesson.c)The Ss can use the patterns to express their thoughts in the proper situation.2.Ability objects:
(1)To develop the Ss’ abilities of listening, speaking, reading and writing.(2)To train the Ss’ ability of working in pairs.(3)To Improve the student’s reading ability, especially their skimming and scanning ability.3.moral objects:
a)By completing the task, the Ss increase their interest and set up self-confidence in science;
b)Teach the Ss what is “science”, put the moral education in the language study.now, let’s come to the Important points and the Difficult points.Well, how to achieve the teaching objects better, how to stress the important points and break through the difficult points? As is known to us all, The modern teaching demands the teacher should improve the students’ ability.A good teaching method requires that the teacher should have the leading effects.According to the analysis of the teaching material and the students’ learning background,I will use the following methods.Part 2 Teaching Methods:
In my opinion, the main instructional aims of learning English in the Middle School is to develop the students’ abilities of listening, speaking, reading, writing and their good sense of the English language.So in this lesson I’ll mainly use “Communicative” Approach(交际教学法), “Whole language teaching”(整体语言教学法)and “Task-based” language teaching(任务教学法).That is to say, I’ll let the Ss to get a better understanding of the key structure of the dialogue.According to the modern social communication teaching theories(现代社会交际教学理论), I adopt the TSA method(情景教学)and TBLT method(语言任务教学)in my teaching, namely Total Situational Action and Task-based Language Teaching.The former is a “scene — activity” teaching method.It establishes a real scene and the interaction between the teacher and the Ss.The latter offers the Ss an opportun ity to complete the tasks in which Ss use language to achieve a specific outcome.The activity reflects real life and learners focus on meaning, they are free to use any language they want.At the same time, I’ll make use of the modern electricity teaching equipments and all kinds of teaching means, it can develop the Ss creativity in learning English.Part 3 Studying Methods:
Our students are almost from the countryside.They are lack of geography knowledge and the cultural background of those foreign countries.As senior students,they have a certain ability to read.And the beautiful places are most attractive and easily arouse students learning emotion.As for the learning methods, they are poor in cooperative learning skills.Some students are not active in the class ,and some students don’t like English.therefore, I ’ll have Ss study in a relaxing atmosphere.Ss understand the new knowledge in certain degree through the mental process of seeing, hearing, saying, observing, thinking etc.And make preparation for completing the new study task.After feeling and understanding the language points, let Ss get the knowledge actively by probe study and cooperative study.In a word, we’ll
1.Teach the Ss how to be successful language learners.2.Let the Ss pass “Observation—Imitation—Practice ”（观察—模仿—实践三步教学法）to study language.3.Teach the Ss how to master dialogues and how to communicate with others.Part 4 Teaching Procedure:
Step 1 Lead-in.As we all know ,Benjamin Franklin is a famous politician and writer．But today, we will read a passage about him as a scientist.His serious attitude to science.Let’s see how Franklin made his famous electricity experiment by flying a kite．
1).Group competition
In the 18th and 19th century, scientists all over the world made many important discoveries and inventions in different fields of physics, chemistry, medicine, biology and so on.Divide the whole class into four groups to name some of them.2).Group work
A match competition.Match Column B with Column A correctly.give more examples to make Ss get information.Purpose of my design:To get to know something about the story of famous scientists.To have a better understanding about the importance of experiments in science.It is really difficult for the scientists to achieve their goal , and only after tens of thousands of attempts, experiments, thinking and failure can they be successful in their research.Today, we are going to learn one example of them: Franklin’s famous kite experiment.Step 2 Reading
1).Individual work
Skimming: Read the material fast to find out the right picture about Franklin’s experiment.2).Individual work
Scanning: Listen to the tape part by part to find out the topic for each one.Para1-3 the description of the experiment
Para4 the equipment of the experiment
Para5-6 the steps of the experiment
Purpose of my design:Enable students to understand the given material better using different reading skills.To present Sample A by CAI（电脑辅助教学）is much easier for the Ss to learn and grasp the meanings.CAI can provide a real situation with its sound and picture and it makes the relationships between the Ss better.In this course, Ss can understand the main contents of this dialogue and get the key points by following the example.Step 3 Practice
1).Class work
With all the equipment ready(a handkerchief made of silk, two pieces of light wood, strings, a sharp piece of metal, a key, a silk ribbon), one student acts as the host to conduct two students how to make a kite as the one made by Franklin.2).Individual work
After that, all the students try to tell how to make such a kite in their own words with the help of the pictures on the screen.Step4 Further understanding
1).Pair work
Read through the passage to fill in the blanks in the form in pairs.2).Class work
Listen to some sentences to judge whether they are true or false.Purpose of my design: “Task-based” teaching method is used here to develop the Ss’ ability of communication and also their ability of co-operation will be well trained.Tell the Ss we should be polite and take good care of our things.We should love our life.I think proper competition can arouse the Ss’ interest in English learning.If the Ss can finish this task well, they will benefit a lot in their spoken English.By this step, it achieved the teaching aim of understanding and talking the dialogue of this lesson.Step 5 Post-reading
1).Pair work
Franklin was doing the experiment with his little son, and he was a bit curious about what his father was doing.On the other hand, many people were watching Franklin doing the experiment.Divide the class into two groups to make a dialogue in pairs, one is between Franklin and his son ,the other Franklin and a person watching the experiment.2).Group work
let Ss read the passage carefully and answer the question: Discuss the following questions in groups:
Students make a conclusion of the process of Franklin’s experiment and retell the tips of doing the experiment。let Ss find out the keys of the exercises after their reading.Purpose of my design: Most Ss can take their parts in the activities, especially for the Ss who have trouble in English study.In the group activities, they can speak a little English.Without doubt, this will encourage them to speak English.In fact, it is a kind of demand of human being.Suhuomulinsiji（苏霍穆林斯基）says,“In one’s mind, there is always a kind of deeply rooted demand, that is the hope to feel oneself a finder and explorer.In Ss’ spirits, such demand is specially strong.”This step also leads to the emotion objective of this lesson, that is to have moral education in this step.Step4 Homework.Summarize the whole lesson, and arrange the homework.1.Do the exercises in the workbook.Check the mastering of knowledge of this lesson.2.Ask Ss to interview their friends asking the price and size of their clothing and make records of the information.Purpose of my design: I think homework is so important that the Ss should speak English as much as they can in class or after class.It is necessary for the Ss to do some exercises after class to master the knowledge they learned.This content is an extension of the previous lesson, to meet the needs of increasing communicating demand of some Ss.Part 5 Blackboard Design.Anyway, the teaching of this lesson aims to develop not only the Ss' language technical abilities, but also the various intelligence by gathering teaching methods.Purpose of my design:
1、Make the students be free to talk about social behaviors
2、Understand the reading passage and can talk more about teamwork.3、Improve the students’ reading and writing skills.As teachers, to make our English classrooms shine with vitality, we are laid with heavy burden, and we still have long way to go.Deal with the language points.Ask the students to pick out the useful expression from the text, give them more examples, and do some exercises to practice the language points.Above is the lecture notes of my lesson.Thank you very much!
第五篇：高中英语作文素材 我在英语里发现了我的热情 I found my passion in English
我在英语里发现了我的热情(I found my passion in English)I did not like English.However, one experience at my age of five completely changed my attitude toward English.My well-to-do parents are good at spoken and written English.My dad is a financial expert, and my mom is a professor of modern art.We are living in China.When I was around five years old,my parents often traveled to London, UK.They always said to me, “I love you, Vicky...” One day I was playing around in a park in China.I saw a beautiful foreign girl crying.It seemed to me that she was looking for someone.When she saw me, she ran towards me.She looked very cute wearing her pinky t-shirt, short skirt and red leather shoes.She looked upset and worried.She started talking to me in English.Gee!I knew very little about English at that time.I knew almost nothing but “I love you.” So I said to the girl, “I love you.” To my surprise, she gradually stopped crying and looked at me.“My name is Isabel.What is your name?” She asked with a smile.“Vicky,” I replied.She started calling my name and said, “Vicky, help me...” I guessed that she would have lost in the park, and I wanted to help her find her parents.Therefore, I took Isabel's hand and found a Chinese policeman within the park.Very quickly, Isabel's parents found their lost daughter.They were so grateful that they kept kissing on my cheeks.I felt very happy about helping Isabel find her parents.Isabel gave me kisses with big hugs and said, “Vicky, where do you live? I want to...” GOD!
I really wanted to tell her where I lived, but I did not know how to say it in English.I clearly realized that it was late to feel sorry.I was so upset that I was not able to express myself in English at that moment.At the end, Isabel gave me her beautiful doll as a gift and left with her parents.From then on, I found my passion in learning English and studied the foreign language very hard in China.
