英语中年份,日期和时间的表达法

1、年份

关于四位数年份的读法有下列几种情形:

(1) 一般情况下,将表示年份的四个数字按前后分为两组,每一组的数字都按基数词来读。例如:

1865年读作 eighteen sixty-five

1998年读作 nineteen ninety-eight

(2) 如果是整百的年,后面的两个“零”读为 hundred。例如: 1900年读作 nineteen hundred

1800年读作 eighteen hundred

(3) 十位数字上为“零”,该“零”读为字母O的发音。例如: 1809年读作 eighteen O nine

(4) 关于千年的一些读法。

2000年读作 two thousand 或 twenty hundred

2008年读作 two thousand and eight 或 twenty O eight 1008年读作 one thousand and eight 或ten O eight

(5) 三位以内数字的年份,它们有两种读法:一种是按照基数词的方法来读,另一种是一个一个数字来读。例如:

531 BC

读作 five three one BC

或 five hundred and thirty-one BC

2、日期

日期的写法可以采用基数词和序数词两种形式。例如: March 1也可

以写成March 1st;May 29也可以写成May 29th。但是,日期的读法只能用序数词的形式。例如:

October 31(October 31st)读作October(the)thirty-first August 26(August 26th)读作August(the)twenty-sixth

3、时间

时间的读法有以下一些特点:

(1) 可以直接按照表示时间的数字来读。例如:

10:56读作 ten fifty six

8:30读作 eight thirty

(2) 正点后的前半小时,通常说几点“过”(past)几分。例如: 9:25读作 twenty-five past nine

2:16读作 sixteen past two

(3) 正点后的后半小时,通常说几点“差”(to)几分。此时,所说的“几点”指的是“正点”后的下一个“正点”。例如:

10:55读作 five to eleven

8:40读作 twenty to nine

(4) 英语中的15分钟也可以说成“一刻钟”(a quarter)。例如: 4:15读作 a quarter past four

7:45读作 a quarter to eight

45分钟读作 three quarters

高中英语语法复习英语日期和时间表达法

英语日期和时间的表达方法

一、 书写方面

二、 先看下面的两个例子:1. 1986年10月23日→October 23(rd), 1986 2. 2002年1月17日→January 17(th), 2002 从上面的例子可以看出,英语日期的表达与汉语不同。英语表达的顺序为

二、 朗读方面

在朗读时,

另外,像1800 可读成eighteen 00或eighteen hundred;2000 可读成two thousand或year two thousand; 2001年则读成two thousand and one,以此类推,2004年应读成two thousand and four。

January 12th, 1993读成January the twelfth, nineteen ninety-three。 用英语表示日期,其顺序为“月+日+年”,日和年之间需用逗号隔开。如:August 2nd,2003(2003年8月2日)。也可以用“日+月+年”来表示。如:10th May,2003(2003年5月10日)。

英语日期前介词的使用:若指在哪一年或哪一月,则用介词in,若具体到某一天,则需用介词on

美英的表达方式是有差别的

在日期方面,美英的表达方式是有差别的。以日为先,月份为后,此为英国式,美国式则与此相反。如一九九六年三月二日的写法: 2nd March, 1996

(英) March 2, 1996(美)

在美式的写法中,1st, 2nd, 3rd的st, nd, rd是不使用的。由于日期书面表达不同,读法也不一样。如1987年4月20日,英式的写法是20th April, 1987,读成the twentieth of April, nineteen eighty-seven;美式的表达是April 20, 1987,则读成April the twentieth, nineteen eighty-seven。同样,全部用数字表达日期时,英美也有差别。1998年5月6日按照英国式应写成6/5/98,而按照美国式应写成5/6/98;01.08.1998是英国式的1998年8月1日,按照美国的表达方式却是1998年1月8日,美国的1998年8月1日应写成08,01,1998。因此,全部使用数字来表示

日期时,往往发生误解,在商务活动中必须谨慎使用。 Sep.1, 1998 读作September the first nineteen ninety-eight(美),4th July,1887 读作the fourth of July eighteen eighty-seven(英)

在数字口头表达方面,两国也存在着差别。$175(175美元)英语读成a(one) hundred and seventy five dollars,美语读成one hundred seventy five dollars,常省略and;表达连续同样数字的号码时,英语习惯用double或triple,美语一般不这样用,如电话号码320112,英语读成three two zero, double one two,美语则读成three two zero one one two, 999 234英语读成nine double nine (triple nine) two three four,美语则读成nine nine nine two three four,不过美国人也把连续三个相同的号码读成three 加上这个数字的复数形式,如999读成three nines。

January

n. 一月,正月(略写为Jan.)

【记忆法】1月跨越旧年与新年,罗马神话中有两个面孔能同时看前后的门神Janus,因此得名。

Fepuary

n. 二月(略写为Feb.)

March

n. 三月(略写为Mar.)

April

n. 四月(略写为Apr.)

【引申】April Fool’s Day愚人节(每年的四月一日)。

May/mei/

n. 五月

June

n. 六月(略写为Jun.)

【记忆法】由罗马神话中婚姻女神朱诺Juno而得名。

July

n. 七月(略写为Jul.)

【记忆法】由于罗马将军尤里乌斯·凯撒Julius Caesar生于七月,而得名。

August

n. 八月(略写为Aug.)

【引申】此词源自罗马第一位皇帝奥古斯都Augustus的名字。 September

n. 九月(略写为Sept.)

【记忆法】September源自拉丁文的“7”sept,在早期的罗马历中为7月,后因历法的修正而成为9月。October

n. 十月(略写为Oct.) November

n. 十一月(略写为Nov.)

December

n. 十二月(略写为Dec.)

在某月,用介词in,注意月份前不加冠词。若说在四月一日,则说on April 1st. April Fool’s Day/All Fools’Day 1 April愚人节(4月1日);April Fool(4月1日愚人节)受愚弄的人。

在涉外经济合同中,日期条款的表达与理解同公共英语之间存在差异,须格外谨慎处理。为了准确地、无岐义地表达商务活动的真实的起止日期,在实践中引入若干特殊的表达方式,即在有关日期字眼的前后使用“at sight(of)”,“on and from”,“beginning on„and ending on„both days inclusive”等限定性的结构,就能精确而又毫无岐义地表达商务活动从何时开始,至何时结束的这个重要的日期理念。鉴于我国与世界各国经贸往来日益频繁,商务英语日益显示出其重要性与特殊性。

英语时间读法

7:15 a quarter past seven; seven fifteen

9.30;9:30 half past nine; nine thirty

11:45 a quarter to twelve;eleven forty-five

1.55;1:55 five(minutes)to two;one fifty-five

8.08;8:08 eight minutes past eight; eight o eight

3.59;3:59 one minute to four;three fifty-nine

4.20;4:20 twenty(minutes)past four;four twenty

(注) (1)o’clock 只用于整点时间

数字妈妈有两个孩子:基数词和序数词。基数词是表示数量的词,我们学过的one, two, three等;另一个孩子序数词,则是表示数目顺序的词。 基数词和序数词长得很像。我们可以通过我们熟悉的基数词来记忆序数词。

1. one—first

two—second

three—third由于是前三个词,很任性顽皮,长得奇形怪状的,所以需要我们特殊记。 2. four到nineteen在后面加th就可以了。但其中five, eight, nine, twelve是不听

话的孩子,淘气得很。

瞧:five—fifth

eight—eighth

nine—ninth

twelve—twelfth

3. twenty以上的数,整十的将“y”变“ie”再加“th”,其它的两位或多位数只需将个位数变序数词就可以了。

瞧:twenty→ twentieth

thirty-one→ thirty-first (375)three hundred and seventy-five→ three hundred and seventy-fifth序数词在工作时,常常懒惰地缩写成由阿拉伯数字加序数词最后两个字母的形式。

瞧:1st, 2nd, 3rd, 20th,

对了,序数词还有一个特别好的朋友“the”。在句子中,“the”总是站在序数词的前面。 瞧:Sunday is the first day of the week in America.

下面有一首小儿歌帮你记忆序数词。

基变序,有规律。

first, second, third太顽皮。

奇形怪状特殊记。

4—19加“th”,

8, 9, 5, 12小淘气:

8没t, 9没e,

5和12, f替ve。 整十将y变ie, 再把th加上去。 多位数,更有趣, 个位变序没问题。

“一……就……”的英语表达法

“一„„就„„”的英语表达法

1. no sooner…than

E.g. No sooner had she said it than she realized her mistake.话刚一说出口,她就认识到错了。 I had no sooner closed my eyes than I heard her cry of alarm.我刚闭上眼睛,就听到她惊骇的叫声。

2. “hardly (或scarcely)…when(或before)…”

* 1)作“刚……就……”解,注意hardly和scarcely位于句首时,有主、谓语颠倒现象:

1. Hardly had I reached the station when (或before)the train started.我刚到车站,火车就开了。

2. Scarcely had he opened the door when(或before)a gust of wind blew the candle out.他刚开门,一阵风就把蜡烛吹灭了。

*2)使用本句型结构时必须注意下列三点:

(1)scarcely或hardly所在的主句内,谓语动作发生在when或before从句内的谓语动词之前,因此主句用过去完成时,从句用过去时。

(2)若hardly或scarcely位于句首,则后面主语和助动词词序要颠倒。

(3)不能用than代替句中的when,若非要用than,则必须改用“no sooner…than…”句型。下列几种表示式的句意相同:

a)He had scarcely (或hardly) seen the letter when (或before) he started back home.他一见到信就动身回家了。

b)Scarcely (或hardly) had he seen the letter when(或before)he started back home.(译文同上)

c)He had no sooner seen the letter than he started back home. (译文同上) d)No sooner had he seen the letter than he started back home. (译文同上)

e)He started back home as soon as he saw the letter.(=As soon as he saw the letter, he stated back home.) (译文同上)

注:用as soon as …时,主句和从句的时态通常一致,但从句不用将来时,因它是时间从句。

“一……就……”英语表达法

“一……就……”英语表达法

The moment he reached the country,he started his search. 他一到那个国家,就开始寻找。

On his arrival he was sold to farmer and worked in the fields.

他一到就被卖给一个农场主,开始在田里劳动。

以上例句中的On his arrival和The moment均含“一……就……”“刚……就……”之意。下面就该意义的四种表达方式予以归纳。

(1)as soon as 归纳:

①as soon as 引出的时间状语从句既可以放在主句之前,也可放在主句之后,表示它所指的动作发生在另一分句所指的动作之前。

②as soon as 可以与动词的一般现在时,一般过去时或完成时态连用,主句的动词使用相应的动词现在时,过去时或将来时。如:

He started as soon as he received the news. 他一得到消息就出发了。

As soon as he had got into the car, I said“good morning”to him in French and he replied in the same language.

他一上车,我就用法语向他道了声早安,他也用法语作了回答。

(2)hardly/ scarcely/ barely…when/ before…no sooner…than…归纳: ①注意搭配关系;hardly/scarcely/barely和no sooner不可以放在when/before和than之后。

②hardly/ scarcely/ barely和no sooner否定词位于句首时,句中的主语和谓语必须部分倒装。

③hardly/ scarcely/ barely和no sooner引导的是主句,表示它的动作发生在从句之前,故常用过去完成时;而when/before和than引导的从句只能与一般过去时连用。④该句型含“惊奇”之意。如:

No sooner had we set out than a thunderstorm poke. 我们一动身就遇上了大雷雨。 Mrs Winthrop had no sooner left the room than they began to gossip about her. 温思罗太太刚离开房间,他们就议论起她来了。

Scarcely/Hardly/Barely had he begun to speak when I sensed that he was in trouble.

他刚一开口,我就感到他遇到麻烦事了。

(3)the moment/ the instant归纳:

名词短语the moment/ instant/ minute/ second和副词immediately/ directly可以用做连词,相当于as soon as,引导的是时间状语从句;从句既可放在句首,也可放在句中。如:

The moment I saw him, I knew that there was no hope. 一见到他,我就知道没希望了。 The instant you leave this tent, you will get a big surprise. 你一出账篷,便会大吃一惊。

We will leave the minute you’re ready. 你一准备好,我们就走。 She returned immediately she heard the bad news. 她一听到这个坏消息,就返了回来。

I left directly the clock struck twelve. 钟一敲十二点我就离开了。

(4)on + 动名词(或表示动作的名词)归纳:

动名词(或名词)结构表示它所表达的动作刚一发生或完成,句子谓语所表示的动作就接着发生。它相当于as soon as 引导的时间状语从句。如: On his return from Europe, he set to work in earnest. 他一从欧洲回来,便开始认真工作。

He was greeted by the Prime Minister on his arrival at the airport.

他一到机场,便受到总理的欢迎。 On arriving in England, they were taken to the Grystal Palace by train. 他们一到英国便乘火车去水晶宫。 另外:each time, every time如同上面四种类型一样,可直接用作从属连词,引导状语从句。如:

Every time I listen to his advice, I get into trouble. 我每次听了他的劝告,都会遇到麻烦。

I’ll think of my hometown each time I listen to that song. 我每次听这首歌,都会想起家乡。

“本来……”的英语表达法

中学英语园地

“本来……”的英语表达法

我们先来看下面的三个句子:河北孙学芳!

7

;

以上三句都表达“本来……,但结果却并非如此”之意,由此我们可以看出,英语中表达“本来……”的意思主要有以下三种形式:

一、有些表示“意图”的动词,如)’*+,$,.%,+$5*,%?.%1+,5*=+%*(,6%’*,90..,9%等,用在过去完成时中,时常常表示“本来打算、希望做……”,但实际上未能实现。例如:

8!

!!

7&!*+*$%&’$(%,*$&’%2(3*+,,’/-$%2-#%26我们本来打算开始上课,不等你了。

三、用“情态动词8$+9&8过去分词”表示“过去本来……,但事实上却没有……”。其否定形式则表示“过去本来不……,但事实上却……了”。这是一种虚拟的用法,常常带有责备的语气,它常用于下面三种情况:

:6“主语83+.(3%2*4)$+9&4%.&,-$”表示“本来能够做某事,而事实上未能做到”。例如:

;%2-%./)0

!-%./)0

6“主语8,$%2*4$+9&4%.&,-$(?主语8%20$--%$+9&4%.&,-$)”表示“本来应该做某事”;“主语8,$%2*4.@-$+9&4%.&,-$(?主语8%20$-.@--%$+9&4%.&,-$)”表示“本不应该做某事”。例如:

;%2#0%./)0

A%./)’3(0

B$&,-24&.-%.$0((%0

C6“主语8.&&4.@-$+9&4%.&,-$”表示“本来没有必要做某事”之意。例如:

7&’**)’3(0

Parents’ meetings are often held in order to One possible version:

Parents’ meetings are often held in schools in order to have a contact with the school

and teachers and improve the students’ study, but different people have different ideas. A few days ago a parents’ meeting was held in our school and here are our views on parents’ meetings.

Most students think it is of great importance to have the meeting for parents to know more about their children at school. What is more, parents can get some good advice and useful information from teachers. On the contrary, a minority of students hold the view that it is useless because they think their parents may know their poor marks and improper behavior at school.

In my opinion, to understand children better, parents should keep in touch with teachers, so parents’ meetings are quite necessary.

Global Shortage of Fresh Water

Fresh water seems everywhere, in rivers, lakes, wells, as well as the rains, which makes some people think that we should never worry about it.

As a matter of fact, global shortage of fresh water is getting more and more serious with the development of industries and the rising population. We are consuming much more water than what our mother earth is able to provide. To think of the pictures of the barren lands in many parts of the world and the poor children in African deserts who are dying for water. What’s worse, much of the limited water has been polluted, making it unfit to drink.

Therefore, we should no longer be indifferent about this. To protect our valuable water resources, we should call on people to cherish every drop of fresh water.

Do remember: we are not saving water; we are saving our own lives.

Dear Li Hua,

Truly, the year of senior three is quite critical.

As far as I know, time is always not enough for us. So first of all, you need to arrange your time well. You’d better make a rather long-term study plan, say, a one-month plan with more efforts to take up your weak subjects. And a short-term plan is equally necessary, if not more important. You have to make sure what you need to do each day, each class and even each minute.

At the same time, it’s quite essential to keep healthy. So take exercise for at least one hour and sleep for no less than seven hours a day. And don’t forget to eat well. More

vegetable and fruit is always right for you.

Hope you will enjoy the last year of senior high.

Yours ever

Brother

It is clear that the public environmental awareness has greatly increased and white pollution has been under control.

However, there exist some problems that cannot be ignored. The survey shows that shoppers are still offered free plastic bags in agricultural products markets and convenience stores, which has caused a wide public concern.

It is hoped that effective measures will be taken to make sure more environmentally friendly shopping bags will be used instead of plastic bags.

At present, short messages are widely involved in various TV programs.People react to them in different ways.

Defenders hold the view that short messages offer the audiences more chances to participate in the live programs.In this way, the mass media benefit a lot from them.On the other hand, they appeal to the need of the young people.

Critics accuse that if the short messages are out of control, we cannot ensure the taste of the programs.What’s more, the expenses may make audiences feel bad.To make matters worse, some adolescents are so addicted to them that too much time and energy are wasted.

As far as I am concerned, the short message is typical of information technology, but

it is a powerful tool that needs to be used with care.

Dear Anderson ,

disease ?

To stay away from the disease, you’d better stay at home as much as possible and not go to places where there are many people. Wash your hands more often to keep them clean. Open the window to have more fresh air in the room. And eat more fruits and vegetables to keep yourself fit and strong.

So far the disease is not so deadly as it seems to be. Do be at ease ! Take care and you’ll be OK.

program, which is called “Respecting Parents Program”, Ten “do’s” have been worked out for the students to follow clearly and easily, including

“Remember your parents’ birthdays and express your good wishes to them, and say hello to your parents when you see them returning home and so on..”

Dear editor,

It can be seen easily from the above chart that American students 72 minutes on physical activities per day, and those in South Korea 42 minutes. However, Chinese students have only 12 minutes for physical activities per day.

The reasons lie in the following. Almost all the time is spent on lessons in Chinese schools and students are made by parents to concentrate on their study even when they get back homes. Thus there is little time left for their physical activities.

In my opinion, both the Education Departments and parents are responsible to give the students more time for physical activity. Anyhow, knowledge can be learned not only from books but also through activities.

Yours sincerely,

But others do not agree . Young children have to learn Chinese pinyin at school . If they study Chinese pinyin and English at the same time , it will be very easy for them to mix them up .

Possible version:

(A)

Nowadays more and more students use dictionaries as study aids. Some think that it is better to use the printed dictionary. They consider that it has more entries which are complete and detailed,while the e-dictionary offers limited information.

However, some others hold the opposite view. They think that an e-dictionary is smart and cool to use as well as time-saving. Meanwhile, it has many other practical functions. But a printed dictionary is not so convenient to carry.

Personally, I prefer the printed dictionary because it has many advantages. First, it provides more entries. Besides, the definitions are followed by more examples,which makes it easier for us to understand. Most important of all, it provides enough contexts for us to develop a good sense of language and to improve our writing. (116 w)

They consider that an e-dictionary is smart and cool to use as well as time-saving. Meanwhile, it has many other practical functions. But a printed dictionary is not so convenient to carry.

However, some others hold the opposite view. They think the printed dictionary has more entries which are complete, detailed with more examples while the e-dictionary provides limited information.

Personally I prefer the e-dictionary. First, it’s very handy and cute. Besides, it’s very practical and helpful. Not only is it a dictionary, it’s also a calculator, a calendar, and a timekeeper as well. It can even teach the learner how to pronounce a word.

“相亲”的几种不同英语表达法

“相亲”的几种不同英语表达法 2010年04月07日09:25沪江英语网我要评论(0)

在中国早期甚至现代,相亲一直都是一种非常盛行的联姻方式。尽管如今的人们再怎么不愿意,结果还是会有不少人挨不住父母的催促,不得不到处去相亲。相亲分几种类型呢?英文又该怎么说呢?

比较常见的一种说法是blind date。我们来看这句话:

A blind date is a date where the people involved have not met each other previously. The match could have been arranged by mutual friends, relatives or by a dating system.

因为“相亲”是“从未晤面的男女经第三者安排所作的约会”,这么看来英语(论坛)中的这个“blind”用得真是相当地传神呢。可不能看到这个说法就望文生义地以为是“盲目约会”或“瞎约会”哦。

除此之外,现在网络非常发达,很多相亲的人在约会之前就已经在网上看到过对方的照片,甚至用聊天软件聊天过了。

这样的“相亲”叫做nearsighted date,也就是“近视相亲”。我们来看这句话:

As opposed to a blind date, where you have no idea what the other person looks like, a nearsighted date is one where you’ve seen a photo or chatted via web before meeting in person.

所以说“近视相亲”是相对于“盲约”而言的,后者在见面前根本不知道对方长什么样,而前者则事先看过照片或者在网上视频聊过天。

这听上去似乎比”blind date”要可靠很多,不过有时候照片也不能代表一切,比如这种尴尬的情况:

The picture he emailed me must have been from before he quit the gym. 我昨天晚上去相亲了,他邮件给我的照片肯定是他还在锻炼身体的时候拍的。

英语时间表达法

第三单元复习一:英语时间表达

一、英语时间通常用以下两种方式表达:

1.直接表达法:

1) 整点表达法:用“基数词+o’clock”来表示整点, “o’clock”也可省

略不写。

11:00 eleven o’clock 12:00 twelve o’clock

2) 非整点表达法:用“基数词按钟点 + 分钟”的顺序直接写出时间。 9:10 nine ten 8:40 eight forty

2.间接表达法

1) 用“分钟 + past + 钟点”来表示:(“past”是介词,意思是“过”) 条件:分钟数少于或等于30分。

7:20 twenty past seven 3:12 twelve past three

2) 用“(60分钟-原分钟数) + to + (原钟点数+1)”来表示:(“to”是介词,意思是“差”)

条件:原分钟数大于30分。

2:50 ten to three (三点差十分)

7:42 eighteen to eight (八点差十八分)

3)当分钟数为15时,可用 a quarter (一刻钟)表示。

10:15 a quarter past ten 3:45 a quarter to four

4)当分钟数为30时,可用 half (半)表示。

5:30 half past five 1:30 half past one

注:在直接表达法中,十五分钟不能用a quarter 表示,只能用基数词fifteen

表示,三十分钟不能用half表示,只能用基数词thirty来表示)

2.若想表明所说时间是上午,只需在时间后加上am。

如:It’s six thirty am. (现在是早上六点三十分)

若想表达下午,只需在时间后加上pm。

如:It’s (现在是下午六点三十分)

3.如果表达的时间不是很精确,可以时间前加about(大约)

如:It’s about seven o’clock. (现在大约七点钟)

4.在时间前面应用介词“at”表示“在”

如:I go to school at seven ten. (我在七点十分上学)

5.对时刻提问时,疑问词一般用: what time 。

如:-What time is it now ? 现在几点?

-Its twelve fifteen. 现在十二点十五分。

如:-What’s the time now? 现在几点?

-It’s quarter past twelve. 现在十二点十五分。

领导的英语表达法

The Italians have an old saying,

意大利人有句老话:“Il dolce far niente.”意思是,无所事事很甜蜜、享受。

On weekends and during holidays, many of us enjoy doing nothing. But most of the time we have to work. And, to keep our jobs, we must work hard. Our employer will not like it if we do nothing.

周末和假期的时候,许多人喜欢无所事事。但大部分时间我们必须工作。为了保住工作,我们必须努力工作。雇主也不喜欢我们无所事事。

American workers often call their employers bosses. The word boss comes from the Dutch word, baas, meaning master.

美国人通常称雇主为老板。

Sometimes company bosses are called the pass. They also are sometimes called top pass, or pass hats.

有时候公司老板被称为

Experts disagree about how these strange expressions started. But, they may have come from Britain. Leaders of the nineteenth century British army wore pieces of metal called oak leaves on their hats. The metal, pass, has a color similar to that of gold. So a leader or commander came to be called a member of the pass. Or he might have been called a pass hat. Or, even the top pass.

关于这个奇异的短语的起源,专家们意见不一。这个短语可能源自英国。19世纪英国军队领导人帽子上镶嵌着几片“金属橡树叶”,它由铜制成,颜色和黄金差不多。所以军队领导或者指挥官就被称作the pass成员,或被称为pass hat(高级将领),甚至是top pass(军方高层)。

By the nineteen forties, the expression had spread beyond military leaders. It also included civilian officials.

到了20世纪40年代,这个短语已经扩展到军事领导人以外,包括了文职人员。

A newspaper in the American city of Philadelphia used the term in nineteen forty-nine. It called the most important police officials, top pass.

1949年美国费城一家报纸使用这个术语,将高级警员称为top pass。

Other expressions that mean boss or employer have nothing to do with pass or hats. One of these is big cheese. A cheese is a solid food made from milk.

其它有老板或雇主含义的短语和金属橡树叶或帽子无关。这其中之一就是big cheese。cheese(奶酪)是一种牛奶制成的固体食品。

The expression probably started in America in the late nineteenth century. Some experts believe it comes from a word in the Uersian or urdu languages -- chiz. The meaning is a thing. So the meaning of big cheese may be a big thing.

这个短语可能起源于19世纪晚期的美国。一些专家认为它来自乌尔都语 -- chiz,意思是一种东西。所以big cheese的意思就是大人物。

Other experts say the word cheese in this expression was really an incorrect way of saying chief. The word chief means leader. So the expression may mean big leader.

另一些专家称,这个短语中的cheese实际是chief的错误表达。chief意思是领导。所以这个短语意思可能是“大领导”。

An employer usually does not object to being called boss. But most workers would not call their employers big cheeses, top pass or pass hats to their faces.

雇主通常并不反对被称为

These words are not really insulting. But neither do they show great respect.

这些词并非无礼,但也没有尊敬的意思。

Employers also have expressions to describe their workers. One of them that describes a good worker is that he or she works like a Trojan.

雇主也有形容员工的短语。其中形容好员工的一个短语就是他或她

This expression probably comes from the ancient writings of the Greek poet Homer. He wrote about the Trojans who lived in the city of Troy. He said Trojans worked very hard to protect their city.

这个短语可能来自希腊诗人荷马的史诗。他写到了居住在特洛伊城的特洛伊人。他说,特洛伊人努力保护自己的城市。

Now, the expression often is used to describe an employee who works hard for a company. A loyal, hard-working employee is said to work like a Trojan.

现在这个短语经常被用于形容努力工作的公司员工。忠诚、勤劳的员工被称为

所以如果公司老板说你

杂谈

地面之上的部分,序数词+floor就可以了,但是英美习惯不同,British convention有Ground floor,再上一层是first floor,American convention通常不使用Ground floor,且再上一层是second floor。

所以规则就是:

American English floor number minus 1 = British English name  British English floor number plus 1 = American English name 

至于地下的部分(Subterranean levels),表达方法差别也很大,简单的方法:

地下一层 lower ground (BE) / basement (AE)

地下二层 sub-lower ground(BE)/ lower basement (AE)

当然了,某些电梯表示楼层的按钮上的数字可能会比较复杂,如下面的图(from wikipedia)B当然是Basement,LG则是Lower ground,G是Ground,UG是Upper Ground,还有一个L2是什么呢?我有点晕,更不清楚地上一层是哪层了。很多香港商场里的电梯就是这样怪怪的,有经验的朋友给点advice吧。

地铁英语表达法

作为一种现代化交通工具,地铁在中国发展很快,现今中国几个大城市都设有庞大的地铁系统。 地铁在英国称为underground 或tube。后者在口语中更为常用。美国则把地铁称为subway。

国外地铁的计价方式不尽相同。有的地方只有一种一种票价(only one fare),只要付车费,随你走到哪里。而有的则要根据路程远近计价(proportional fare)。

常用地铁表达语:

Lets go to Tiananmen on a subway. 咱们乘地铁去天安门吧。

You can get almost anywhere rather quickly on a subway. 你可以坐地铁迅速到达任何地方。

Look, therere two empty seats over there. 看,那边有两个空位子。

At which platform is our train? 我们坐的那趟车停在哪个站台?

Can we go direct or do we have to change? 我们能直达还是必须转车?

Could you tell me how to go to the platform? 你能告诉我去站台怎么走吗?

Does the train stop at Wangfujing? 请问列车在王府井站停吗?

How frequent is this subway service? 这班地铁多长时间来一次?

Which line do I take for the Art Gallery? 去美术馆乘哪条地铁?

Is this the right subway to go to Jianguomen? 这是去建国门的地铁吗?

Do I have to pay an additional fare to change trains? 换乘地铁还要付费吗?

Where do we pay the fare? 我们在哪儿付车费?

Is it the right station to change? 是在这一站换乘吗?

Where do I change to the Second Line? 请问我在哪儿换乘地铁二号线?

A train will be in directly. 列车马上进站。

Here comes the train. 车来了。

The first train pulls in there at 5:00 a.m.

首班列车早上5点进站。 Be careful! Subway doors open and close automatically.

当心!地铁车门是自动开关的。

实用地铁对话:

A: Good! Theres the information desk. 太好了,那里有个问讯处。

How do we get the 70th Street, please? 请问我们怎样能到第70街?

B: The Northern Line is what you want. 你可以坐北线地铁。

A: How much is it? 票价多少?

B: Its two yuan. 两元。

A: Which way do we go for the Northern Line? 我们怎样去北线地铁?

B: Just go through the No.8 ticket-barrier over there. A train will be in directly.

从8号检票口往前走,列车马上就进站。

A: I appreciate it. 非常感谢。

英语数字表达法

英语数字表达法

一、数字表达类(Numbers)

研究生入学考试听力试题中第一部分为填充表格,其中很大一部分是根据所听内容填写诸如数字、时间和地点等具体信息。而数字、时间等信息正是中国考生最不容易听清楚的。下面我们将数字、时间等英语语言信息的日常表达方法介绍给大家:

1.英语中纯数字的表达方法

小数和分数:

0.17 zero point one seven / point seventeen / zero point seventeen

1/2 one half

1/3 one /a third

3/4 three fourths

72/ 5seven and two fifths

大于100的数字:

101 one hundred (and ) one

200 two hundred

998 nine hundred ( and ) ninety eight

在英语中上面括弧中的and一般不能省略;而在美国英语中却往往省去。请分析下面的对话: A:How many people are present in the party last night?

B: Thats nine hundred and ninety-eight, exactly.

A: Woo, you must be joking. How can you get such an accurate number?

B: Ha, ha„„ surely I am joking. You silly goose.

大于1000的数字:

1001 a/one thousand (and) one

2232 two thousand two hundred (and) thirty-two

900,732,266,043

nine hundred billion seven hundred thirty-two million two hundred sixty-six thousand and forty three 英语中一千以上数字的表达方法是以三位数为单元,从高到低billion,million,thousand而依次读出的。因此我们在听时,可以三位数三位数地记录。试比较下面的对话:

A:Can you tell me exactly the numbers of the whole people in our country?

B:One billion four hundred thirty-two million two hundred sixty-six thousand and forty three.

A:Thank you very much.

2.英语中时间的表达方法

英语中时间的表达方法主要有直接法和借用介词法等。

(1)直接法。

上午八点eight AM (a.m.)[ei em]

下午九点nine PM (p.m.)[pi:em]

六点六分six six

六点三十二six thirty two

八点正eight oclock

(2)借用介词法。

八点四十五a quarter to nine

七点零五分five past seven

七点五十四six to eight

六点半half past six

(3)表示正点的用法。

十一点正at 11 oclock sharp

at 11 oclock on the hour

at 11 oclock on the strike

正午12点at noon

午夜12点at midnight

(注:12点22分可读作:twelve twenty-two: twenty-two past twelve(英式说法);twenty-two after twelve(美式说法)

1点15可读作:one fifteen; a quarter past one(英式说法):a quarter after one(美英说法) 8点50分可读作:eight fifty; ten to nine(英式说法);ten before nine(美式说法)

1点40分可读作:one forty; twenty to two(英式说法);twenty before two(美式说法)

“提前半小时”可用:half an hour early; thirty minutes early; early by half an hour; half an hour ahead of time; half an hour ahead of schedule等来表示。)

时间表示法和时段的简单运算是听力考试的热点,请看下面的对话:

W: How long does the class usually last?

M: Umm, let me think. It starts from a quarter to nine, and ends at nine thirty. So„„

W: That is forty-five minutes. Thank you very much!

Q: When does the class usually start?

3.英语中货币的表达方法

英国货币:penny(便士)/pence (penny的复数),pound (£)

£20.50:twenty pounds fifty pence,也可以简单地写作:twenty fifty

美国货币:

1美元钞票a S|1.00 bill

1 dollar=100 cents

(S|1.00=one dollar)

(S|2.00=two dollars)

25美分1 quarter

10美分1 dime

5美元1 nickel

1美分1 penny

S|15.95:fifteen dollars ninety-five cents,或fifteen ninety-five.

(注:表示正常价格: regular price, normal price.

表示价格划算:a good buy, a better buy, an excellent price, a good price/ bargain.

表示价格较贵:dear, expensive, more expensive, steep.

表示价格便宜:cheap, inexpensive, bargain price, less expensive.

表示减价出售:sale price, on sale, garage sale, Christmas sale, special price.

词组:discount, half, double, cut off, knock off, twice as much as ,cross off, etc.)

4.英语中关于数字及其计算的听力考点

(1)数字辨别:

有关数字辨别的一个关键考点就是类似30/13,40/14,50/15,60/16的听音,看大家能否听出其发音区别。听力理解中难以分辨的基数词主要有以下几对:

thirteen与thirty; fourteen与forty; fifteen与fifty; sixteen与sixty; seventeen与seventy;eighteen与eighty; nineteen与ninety,在英文中这几对数词叫做teens and tens(十几与几十)。

不管加减还是乘除,这类题中至少会出现两个数字,你的任务就是迅速地判断这两者的关系,然后根据听音再确定正确选项。

(2)加减法计算:

在需要简单的加减法计算的题型中,对话中至少出现两个数字,它们之间的关系往往用“多少”、“迟早”、“快慢”、“前后”的形容词、副词或介词短语等来表达。还要注意一些能够表示数的存在或引起数的变化的动词,这些动词也能确定数字之间的加减关系,例如:

be, have, start, begin, spend, miss, leave, postpone, prolong, increase, add, borrow, lend, loan, delay, save, go up, go down, rate, at x% off the price等。

大家还应该记住下面这些表示加减关系的词:

more(多),less(少),late(晚),early(早),fast(快),slow(慢),before(前),after(后),add/addition(加上),plus(加上),subtract/ subtraction(减去),minus(减去)

Dialogue 1:

M: This black bag is 2.00 and that blue one is a dollar more.

W: The red one is twice as much as the blue one.

Q: How much are two red bags?

A.S|4.00B.S|6.00

C.S|8.00D.S|12.00

这道题从选择项上来看非常简单,因为数字不大,所以乍一看选择项有可能放松警惕,而实际上,这道貌似简单的题,中间却暗含着陷阱。因为原文中提到black、blue、red三个颜色的bag,最后提问的是红色书包的价格,包含了一个加法和乘法运算。如果大家在听的时候没记好,又没有做好笔记,就很容易出错。因此,在听力答题中要保持一个清醒的头脑,稳扎稳打是成功的重要保证。

Dialogue 2:

W: Three hours ago, I saw Bob at a meeting. Is he home yet?

M: No. He said he would be back at four and its six already.

Question: What time did the woman see Bob?

A??2∶00 B??3∶00 C??5∶00 D??6∶00

在这个例子中,见到Bob的具体时间必须依据现在的时间推断出。现在时间是6点钟,而说话人是在三小时之前见到Bob的,因而那时的时间约是3点钟。正确的选项是B.

Dialogue 3:

M:Which coat did you finally decide to buy?

W: Well, I would like to buy the green one, but it was S|85.00, so I bought the pink one instead, and save S|35.00.

Question: How much did the woman pay for the coat?

A60 B??75 C??90 D??50

原对话中并未直接给出说话人所购买的衣服的价钱,但可以通过其他信息推算出来。灰色衣服是85元,而买棕色的可以节省35元,即棕色的衣服是50元。应选D.

Dialogue 4:

W. How many people showed up for the meeting yesterday, thirty?

M:Twenty-five are expected to come, but the number was double that.

Question: Whats the actual number of people who attended the meeting?

A20 B35 C35 D50

此题中的运算关系由double一词体现出来,即双倍的。原来预计有25人到场,实际上是原先的两倍,因而正确的选项是D.

英语数字的正确表达

在汉英笔译和英语写作中,经常会遇到数字;哪些场合用单词表示,哪些场合用阿拉伯数字表示,往往使人难以确定,现行语法书中也极少涉及此类问题。

实际上,以英语为母语的国家,在书写数字时已形成几条约定俗成的规则,现总结如下供读者参考。

一、英美等国的出版社在排版时遵循一条原则,即1至10用单词表示,10以上的数目用阿拉伯数字(也有的以100为界限),这条原则值得我们行文时借鉴。

E.g. That table measures ten feet by five. 那个工作台长10英尺,宽5英尺。

E.g. The traditional pattern of classroom experience at the college level pings the professor and a group of 20 to 30 students together for a 45-to-50-minute class session two or three times a week. 由一个教授和十名学生每周会晤两三次,每次授课时间45到50分钟,是大学程度课堂教学的传统方式。

二. 人数用阿拉伯数字表示显得更简洁明了,但不定数量、近似值用单词表示较为恰当。 E.g. There are 203817 voters on the electoral rolls. 选举名单上有203817个投票人。

E.g. Nearly thirty thousand voters took part in this election. 近3万个投票人参加了这次选举。

三. 遇到日期、百分比、带单位的特殊数字,通常用阿拉伯数字。

E.g. Maximum swivel of table is l20. 工作台的最大回转角度是120度。

E.g. 3rd March l991或3 March l991;

a discount of 5 percent(5%的折扣);

E.g. purchased 7 yards of carpet(买7码地毯);

E.g. ordered 2 pounds of minced steak(订购2磅剁碎的肉)。

如果涉及的数目和单位是不定数,可用单词表示。

E.g. about five miles per hour(每小时大约5英里)

E.g. at least ten yards away(至少有10码远)

E.g. hesitated for a moment or two(犹豫了片刻)

E.g. I have warned you a hundred times(我已经警告你多少遍了)。

四. 在科技文章中,数字频繁出现,用阿拉伯数字比用单词陈述更有利。

E.g. The new engine has a capacity of 4.3 liters and a power out-put of 153 kilowatts at 4400 revolutions per minute. 这台新发动机的容积为4.3升,转速为每分钟4400转时输出功率是153千瓦。

E.g. We know that the weight of a cubic foot of air at 0oC and 76cm,pressure is 0.08l pound, or 12 cubic feet of air weigh a pound. 我们知道,1立方英尺的空气在0摄氏度和760毫米汞柱压力下,重量是0.81磅,也就是说12立方英尺空气的重量是1磅。

五. 句首不用阿拉伯数字,句末要尽量避免用阿拉伯数字。

E.g. 4th July is an important date in American history.

应该写成The fourth of July...

E.g. 19 couples took part in the ballroom dancing competition. 19对选手参加了交际舞比赛。 应改写成:Nineteen couples took...

E.g. 60%profit was a reported. 据报道有60%的利润。

应改写成:Sixty per cent profit„

E.g. 1345 kilograms force was applied at the center point of the bar. 试验时在杆的中点加1345公斤力。 可改成When tested, a force of l345 kg was applied...

六. 遇到分数,可用带连字符号的单词表示。

E.g. At 1east two-thirds of the class have had colds. 这个班至少有三分之二的学生患重感冒。 E.g. Nitrogen forms about four-fifths of the atmosphere. 氮约占大气的五分之四。

数字表达法(英语)

数 词

数词主要分为基数词和序数词两类。

一、 数词的分类

1. 基数词

表示数目的词称为基数词。其形式如下:

A.从1——10

one,two,three,four,five,six,seven,eight,nine,ten.

B.从 11——19

eleven,twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen,eighteen, nineteen. 这里除 eleven, twelve, thirteen, fifteen, eighteen为特殊形式外,fourteen,sixteen,seventeen,nineteen

都是由其个位数形式后添加后缀-teen构成。

C.从 21——99

整数几十中除twenty,thirty, forty,fifty,eighty为特殊形式外,sixty,seventy,ninety都是其个位数形式后添加后缀-ty构成。

表示几十几时,在几十和个位基数词形式之间添加连字符“-”

21 twenty-one

76 seventy-six

D.百位数

个数基数词形式加“hundred”,表示几百,在几十几与百位间加上and.
