爆笑英语怪词:人道主义者吃人?http://www.sina.com.cn
2008年09月04日 14:50 新浪教育
If a vegetarian(11) eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian(12) eat? 素食主义者吃蔬菜,人道主义者吃人(human)? How can a slim chance(13) and a fat chance(14) be the same, while a wise man(15) and wise guy(16) are opposites? 胖瘦截然相反,可后面跟着chance就都变成“机会渺茫”了;聪明人(wise man)改一个词,就沦落为自作聪明的人(wise guy)。 How can overlook(17) and oversee(18) be opposites, while quite a lot(19) and quite a few(20) are alike? Look和see是近义词,但oversee监视,overlook意思怎么就是忽视呢;A lot和a few是反义词,但与quite连用,怎么都表示很多的意思呢! When the stars are out(21), they are visible, but when the lights are out(22), they are invisible. 星星出来了,我们能看到它们;灯灭了,我们就什么也看不见了。 When you wind up your watch(23), you start it, but when you wind up an essay(24), you end it? 给表上发条,表就开始走了;wind up一篇文章,哈哈,文章到此结束啦。
