旋风英语
现在我们来说一个美国的常用语dress。词组就是:dress down。Dress down这个短语有两种完全不同的意思。这就是为什么我们学习词汇或者短语的意义得通过上下文来理解。我们来听一位老师在说自己怎么处置老是迟到的男孩儿John。
例句-1:I gave John a good dressing down for being tardy to class three days in a row.What's more, he'll also have to stay after school and do some extra homework.John一连三天迟到,那位老师把John责备一通,而且还责令John课后留校作额外的功课。
所以这段话里的gave John a good dressing down意思是把John责备一顿。Dressing down这个习惯用语在这儿的意思就是“责备”或“责骂,”而且这里的dressing down显然是个名词短语。但是接下来要学的dress down可是个动词短语了。它用来说穿衣服的方式。
美国的有些公司或办公场所规定,某些日子和某些场合不必穿正式的办公服装。比方说,有的规定星期五和周末,你可以穿着牛仔裤、运动衫和旅游鞋来上班,雇员都觉得这样很轻松自在,尤其在夏天更是如此。下面这句话就是此意:
例句-2:I look forward to Fridays because that's when we can dress down.I just slip into my old jeans and my tee shirt.What a relief not to have a tie around your neck.他说自己盼望过星期五,因为这一天他可以穿上旧牛仔裤和T恤衫,而且脖子上也不必套着领带。

Perfectly impartial
During the Spring and Autumn Period(770-476 BC), a very noble official caled Qi
Huangyang lived in the State of Jin.One day, the king summoned him to court and asked, “Now that the magistrate position of Nanyang county is vacant, who do you think is suitable for the post?”
“Xie Hu is the right man for the job,” Qi replied without hesitation.Surprised, the king asked, “Did you say Xie Hu? I thought he's your enemy.Why did you recommend him to take such an important position?”
Smiling, Qi Huangyang said, “Your Majesty didn't ask me my personal opinions o Xie Hu.You simply asked me who I thought would be competent for the position.Therefore I
recommended Xie Hu.the king followed Qi's advice and made Xie Hu magistrate of Nanyang county.And sure enough, Xie Hu administered the county very well and won respect from local people and his colleagues.Some days later, the king again asked Qi Huangyang for his opinions.This time, the king was trying to find a suitable candidate for a court judge position.Qi Huangyiang recommended Qi Wu for the job.Once again, the king was surprised again by the recommendation because Qi Wu was the son of Qi Huangyang.The king asked: ”Who do you recommend your son? Aren't you afraid people will gossip?“
Qi Huangyang replied, ”Your Majesty, you asked me who was the most capable person for the position of a judge, and I think Qi Wu is.“
Although the king was a bit hesitant about making Qi Wu the judge, he nevertheless gave him the position.As it turned out, Qi Wu was an upright and talented judge, who people GREatly respected.Qi Huangyang's actions were praised by Confucius who said, ”Qi Huangyang was right.He recommended people according to their abilities and talents, not because of personal sentiments,not because of fearing others' gossip.Therefore, people like Qi Huangyang are referred to as people “without selfish motives”.From Confucious' comment came the idiom “Unselfish”.Anyone who handles affairs fairly and impartially can be described as “Unselfish;Perfectly impartial”.大公无私
春秋时,晋国有位品格非常高尚的大臣祁黄羊。有一次,晋王召祁黄羊入宫问他:“南阳县缺个县令,你看,应该派谁去当比较合适呢?」祁黄羊毫不迟疑地回答说:”解狐去,最合适了。“平公惊奇的问他:”你是说解狐? 他不是你的仇人吗?你为什么还要推荐他担任这么重要的职位?“
祁黄羊笑着说:”陛下只问我什么人能够胜任这个职位,并没有问我对解狐的个人看法呀!因此我推荐解狐。“于是,晋王采纳了他的建议,派解狐到南阳县去上任了。当然,解狐到任后,治理有方,他的同僚和当地百姓都尊敬他。
过了一些日子,平公又向祁黄羊征求意见。这回,晋王想找个合适的人选担任朝廷法官。”祁黄羊推荐了祁午。平公又奇怪起来了,因为祁午是祁黄羊的儿子。他问道:“你怎么推荐你的儿子,不怕别人讲闲话吗?”祁黄羊说:“陛下只问我谁最是合适的,我认为祁午是。”尽管晋王还有些犹豫,他还是派了祁午去做法官。事实证明,祁午是个正直,有才能的法官,很受人们的爱戴。孔子听说这两件事,十分称赞祁黄羊。孔子说: “祁黄羊是对的。他推荐人,完全是以才能做标准,不因为个人偏见,便不推荐他;也不因为怕人议论,便不推荐。像黄祁羊这样的人,才够得上说”大公无私“啦!”
“大公无私”这个成语就是由孔子的评论而来的,用来形容那些公正无私处理事物的人。

栏目组:英语沙龙主题:2012高考(college entrance examination of 2012)编辑时间:2012-4-20编辑人员:王首斌播音时间:播音人员:
开头语(Quotes):This is Wednesday, welcome to weekly English zone.I’m Tim.Glad to see you at this time.I’m Tim.It’s time to college entrance examination of 2012.So I will tell you something about some reminds of my college entrance examination.
旋风英语
Get up on the wrong side of the bed,要是直译就是起床的地方不对头。这是个在美国通用的习惯用语,从二十世纪三十年代起一直沿用到今天。
人们的日常生活中时时会出现这样情形:觉没睡够,或者得重感冒了,或是半夜闹肚子,也可能早上醒来就是有件特别让你烦恼的事儿压在心头。这一来你这一整天都会情绪不佳,而且你对周围人的态度也变得急躁了。
这时就可以用get up on the wrong side of the bed来描述这种整天情绪不佳的状况。事实上你并没有真的从错的一边下床。
我们来听个例子。说话的先生平常性情温和,今天却一反往常。我们听听他正在为自己的失常跟同事们打招呼。请特别注意他话里的习惯用语get up on the wrong side of the bed:
例句:I'm sorry I'm in such a bad mood today我一整天都情绪不好。我们的孩子昨晚哭闹了一夜,而我又忘了上闹钟,所以今天早上早饭都来不及吃。只要晚上好好睡一觉,我就会回复正常的!这位先生有自知之明,特意为自己反常的态度向大家道了歉。其实要是你由于某种原因而没睡好觉的时候,不论你是从左边还是从右边下床,你的感觉都不会对头。
所以这里的习惯用语get up on the wrong side of the bed意思是“整天心烦意乱、情绪不佳,” 跟从哪边起床无关。
好了,今天的旋风英语就为大家介绍到这里,习惯用语get up on the wrong side of the bed意思是“整天心烦意乱、情绪不佳!”
高三!一个单纯的词语,一个黑暗的词语!我们都体验过高三!现在高考又快开始了!让我们回味并迎接我们一年一度的高考。
正文
我的高三感慨(regard of senior three)
高三了,多少日子可以让我如此挥霍呢?也许没多久了吧!这种感觉不易寻得,而这种寂静也不易读取,快高三呢!不再那样激动,也不再那样乖巧了,开始学会了发呆,偶尔也试着不做作业,心中不会害怕,反而有了一中淡定;一种强作的从容.高三了,也许迎接我的是铺天盖地的试卷,没完没了的习题吧.但我此时却没有害怕.因为我不想给自己乱了阵脚,更没有放弃.因为我不想给自己留下遗憾,于是试着调整心态.让自己最终选择了面对我那一想就害怕的数学!
In Senior three, how many days I squandered it so? Perhaps not long now!This feeling is not easy to find, and this silence is not easy to read, fast senior three!No longer as excited as well-behaved,learned in a daze, occasionally try to not do their homework heart will not fear, but have a calm;a strong calm.In Senior three, perhaps to meet me the avalanche of papers, endless exercise, but I was not afraid, because I do not want to give yourself in disarray, but did not give up, because I do not want to regret, so try to adjust their mentality to finally chose the face of which I am afraid of math
爱迪生告诉我们:where there is a will , there is a way.于是不再彷徨,不再迷茫。有了渴望,有了梦想,有了向往。携着光芒,放飞梦想,去寻找心中的光芒。
很久以前就知道,梦是需要用心去呵护的。如今,行走在高三,梦想的种子在春雨的滋润下已经萌芽,梦想的翅膀在春风的吹抚下,正准备振翅飞翔。
A long time ago, we know that the dream must need the heart to care.Today, walking in the senior three, the dream seeds already sprouting in the spring rain the moisture, the dream of wings in the spring breeze blowing ask, preparing to spread their wings
行于在高三,不再孤独。因为有希望。它像春夜里的细雨,夏夜里的蝉鸣,秋夜里的蛙叫,冬夜里的飞雪,永远陪伴着我。
行走于高三,不再畏惧。因为有希望。无论它离我有多么的遥远,都将引领我通向前方,前方那个充满了我梦想的地方!
Line in the senior three, is no longer alone.Because there is hope.Like a spring night, the rain, summer night, the cicadas, the autumn where the frog is called the winter night the snow, always accompany me.Walk in the senior three, no longer afraid.Because there is hope.Whether it away from me so far, will lead to I leads to the front, the front that is full of my dream place!
回忆了自己的高三生活,才想起最重要的是心态,那现在我就说一下怎样来调整心态吧!高三三不要(Do not do it in senior three)
不要怕。不要把高三视为畏途,患得患失,不要总是担心自己不能顺利地走下去,或是担心自己明年的高考考不好怎么办。怕字当头,百事难做,容易做成的事也要做不成了。横下一条心往前闯,抖起你心底 “壮士一去兮不复还”的勇气。
Do not be afraid.Do not put the senior three as a dangerous road, do not always worried that he could not go smoothly, or worry about next year's
college entrance exam, how to do bad.Afraid of putting the word Pepsi difficult, things do not become easily made.Summon up the resolve forward, courage your heart a warrior to Come Nevermore “courage.不要烦。高三作业量大,压力繁重,休息时间少,这时候容易产生烦躁。跟朋友或亲近的师长倾诉,做做运动,暂时放下难题,换一个学科,做一点家务,听一小段舒缓的乐曲……这些方法都可以试一下。“烦躁”“烦恼”的频频来袭,其实正是我们心灵不够强大的表现,提醒自己:超越和成熟就在此刻此事,跳开一些看待眼前的小小烦恼,“必须跨过这道坎”,不是吗?试回忆,你还能清楚的记起上半年甚至上个月上周的“偌大”烦恼吗?时间能洗涤一切,而心灵强大的人能拨快时钟,更干净利索的把烦恼消化掉。
Do not bother.Senior three has heavy pressure, the less rest time, this time is prone to irritability.Teachers to talk with a friend or close, taking exercise, to put aside the problem, for a subject, do a little housework, listen to the soothing music of a short...these methods you can try.”Irritability“ and ”trouble“ is frequently struck, in fact, what our mind is not strong enough performance to remind ourselves: beyond and mature on the matter at the moment, jump some little trouble to look at the immediate, ”must cross this bridge , is not it? Test memories, you can clearly remember the first half or last month, last week's “huge” trouble? Time can wash all powerful mind can dial a faster clock and more cleanly digest the troubles.不要悔。有的同学高一高二荒废时间过多,基础没有打牢。高三复习时常会感到漏洞百出,因此懊悔不迭。套用鲁迅先生的话来说——真的猛士,敢于直面充满缺陷的人生。记住,天桥底下跑江湖的踩钉板吞刀剑可能还有几回博一两个硬币,但天底下可没有人花钱买你的自我折磨,更没有人为你的自我折磨喝彩助威。
Do not regret.Some students and one sophomore waste too much time, did not lay a solid basis.The third year review often feel full of loopholes, so regret not cope.Apply the words of Mr.Lu Xun-true warriors, and the courage to face life is full of defects.Remember, under the flyover to wander about the step nail plate to swallow a sword may be several times to one or two coins, but under the sun can not spend money on your self-torture, the more you torture yourself cheering.结束语(ending)
高考即将到来,我们会回忆起单纯的岁月!我们亦更加鼓励即将高考的同学们在最后的时间里用尽全身的力气去考上自己梦想的大学!即将高考的同学们congratulations!
第五篇:英语沙龙 玩转英语
英语沙龙 玩转英语
9月23日,由泰达学院学生会学术部主办的本学期首次英语沙龙活动在三区一阶成功举办。泰达学院应用物理学院的两位外籍教师夫妇与四十多位参加沙龙的同学用英文交流得不亦乐乎。在这里,大家畅谈最美丽的地方,最喜爱的运动,最向往的未来,参与最有趣的单词接龙游戏,一起玩转英语。
晚上六点整,在轻快的英文歌曲中,英语沙龙活动正式拉开序幕。第一位同学与这对老外夫妇交流了各自喜爱的sports,他们显然是运动迷,一提起这个话题滔滔不绝,football、ping-pong、walking等等一连串的介绍令英语听力较为生疏的同学应接不暇,也正好给他们提供了一个提升听力的绝佳机会。接着一些同学有关hometown的问题又一次打开了他们的话匣子,这对来自奥地利首都维也纳的夫妇,幸福地谈论起了那里的mountain、music和climate等,还与天津进行了一番比较。不过无论是家乡还是天津,他们都爱。这对夫妇随后在沙龙活动现场找到了许多中国各地的旅游向导,有最爱北京的小伙,有迷恋厦门的姑娘,他们口中的最美丽的地方令这对夫妇神往不已,表示将来一定要请他们做向导旅游全中国。
与热情洋溢的老外的英文交流只是本次沙龙活动的第一次高潮,之后的topics自由交流阶段,使现场的气氛更加热烈。同学们依次介绍了他们的plans for future。观看了电影Ice Age的片段后,大家争相发言讨论他们的favorite character,并说出了各自的理由。而最激动人心的环节莫过于单词接龙游戏了。第一个人任意说一个英文单词,接下来的每一个人都要在5秒内说出一个以前一个人说的单词的最后一个字母为首字母的新单词,成功的让后面的人接不上来者,得奖品一份,送完即止。有了奖品的诱惑,每个人都绞尽脑汁,思维活跃。有些反应慢了一拍的人给他们前面一位同学赢取了可爱的奖品。不过奖品是次要的,重要的是每个人收获了欢乐,学会了一些以前不知道的英语单词。
尽管有些同学的英语口语中还带着点方言的口音,可这丝毫不影响大家畅所欲言。每个人都在这个克服害羞,努力发言,并仔细聆听的过程中收获了很多,也许是几个原本陌生的单词,也许是一句口语中常用的句子,也许只是speak English的一份勇气。总之,英语沙龙,就是要让每一个人都玩转英语。
