推荐第1篇:谚语故事

1、瞎子打灯笼

一个盲人到亲戚家做客,天黑后,他的亲戚好心为他点了个灯笼,说:“天晚了,路黑,你打个灯笼回家吧!”盲人火冒三丈地说:“你明明知道我是瞎子,还给我打个灯笼照路,不是嘲笑我吗?”他的亲戚说:“你犯了局限思考的错误了。你在路上走,许多人也在路上走,你打着灯笼,别人可以看到你,就不会把你撞到了。”盲人一想,对呀!

局限思考是从自己的角度思考, 整体思考是你把自己放到整个环境中去考虑。系统地思考问题,就会发现,你的行为会对别人产生互动。

2、哥伦布的鸡蛋

哥伦布发现美洲后,许多人认为哥伦布只不过是凑巧看到,其他任何人只要有他的运气,都可以做到。于是,在一个盛大的宴会上,一位贵族向他发难道:“哥伦布先生,我们谁都知道,美洲就在那儿,你不过是凑巧先上去了呗!如果是我们去也会发现的。”

面对责难,哥伦布不慌不乱,他灵机一动,拿起了桌上一个鸡蛋,对大家说:“诸位先生女士们,你们谁能够把鸡蛋立在桌子上?请问你们谁能做到呢?” 大家跃跃欲试,却一个个败下阵来。哥伦布微微一笑,拿起鸡蛋,在桌上轻轻一磕,就把鸡蛋立在那儿。哥伦布随后说:“是的,就这么简单。发现美洲确实不难,就像立起这个鸡蛋一样容易。但是,诸位,在我没有立起它之前,你们谁又做到了呢?”

创新从本质上是一种对新思想、新角度、新变化采取的欢迎态度,它也表现为看问题的新角度。很多时候,人们会说,这也算是创新吗?原来我也知道啊!创新就这么简单,关键在于你敢不敢想,肯不肯做。

3、青蛙现象

有人做过一个实验,把青蛙放到一锅热水中,那青蛙遇到剧烈的变化,就会立即跳出来,反应很快。但是把青蛙放到冷水中去,慢慢给水加温,你会发现青蛙刚开始会很舒适地在水里游来游去。锅里的水温度在慢慢地上升,它毫不察觉,仍然感到暖洋洋的自得其乐。一旦温度上升70~80度时,它觉得有威胁,想跳出来,可是已经来不及了。因为它的腿不听使唤,再也跳不起来,最后只得被煮死。这就是温水煮青蛙的故事。

第一,大环境的改变能决定我们的成功与失败。大环境的改变有时是看不到的,我们必须时时注意,多学习,多警醒,并欢迎改变,才不至于太迟。第二,太舒适的环境就是最危险的时刻。很习惯的生活方式,也许就是你最危险的生活方式。不断创新,打破旧有的模式,而且相信任何事都有再改善的地方。第三,要能觉察到趋势的小改变,就必须“停下来”从不同角度来思考,而学习是能发现改变的最佳途径。

4、砌墙工人的命运 三个工人在砌一堵墙。

有人过来问:“你们在干什么?”

第一个人没好气地说:“没看见吗?砌墙。”

第二个人抬头笑了笑,说:“我们在盖一幢高楼。”

第三个人边干边哼着歌曲,他的笑容很灿烂开心:“我们正在建设一个新城市。” 10年后,第一个人在另一个工地上砌墙;第二个人坐在办公室中画图纸,他成了工程师;第三个人呢,是前两个人的老板。

你手头的平凡工作其实正是大事业的开始,能否意识到这一点意味着你能否做成一项大事业。

5、钉子

有一个坏脾气的男孩,他父亲给了他一袋钉子。并且告诉他,每当他发脾气的时候就钉一个钉子在后院的围栏上。第一天,这个男孩钉下了37根钉子。慢慢地,每天钉下的钉子数量减少了,他发现控制自己的脾气要比钉下那些钉子容易。于是,有一天,这个男孩再也不会失去耐性,乱发脾气。他告诉父亲这件事情。父亲又说,现在开始每当他能控制自己脾气的时候,就拔出一根钉子。一天天过去了,最后男孩告诉他的父亲,他终于把所有钉子给拔出来了。

父亲握着他的手,来到后院说:“你做得很好,我的好孩子,但是看看那些围栏上的洞。这些围栏将永远不能恢复到从前的样子。你生气的时候说的话就像这些钉子一样留下疤痕。如果你拿刀子捅别人一刀,不管你说了多少次对不起,那个伤口将永远存在。话语的伤痛就像真实的伤痛一样令人无法承受。”

人与人之间常常因为一些无法释怀的僵持,而造成永远的伤害。如果我们都能从自己做起,开始宽容地看待他人,相信你一定能收到许多意想不到的结果。为别人开启一扇窗,也就是让自己看到更完整的天空。

6、买烟 甲去买烟,烟29元,但他没火柴,跟店员说:.“顺便送一盒火柴吧。”店员没给。

乙去买烟,烟29元,他也没火柴,跟店员说:“便宜一毛吧。”最后,他用这一毛买一盒火柴。

这是最简单的心理边际效应。第一种:店主认为自己在一个商品上赚钱了,另外一个没赚钱。赚钱感觉指数为1。第二种:店主认为两个商品都赚钱了,赚钱指数为2。当然心理倾向第二种了。同样,这种心理还表现在买一送一的花招上,顾客认为有一样东西不用付钱,就赚了,其实都是心理边际效应在作怪。 变换一种方式往往能起到意想不到的效果!通常很多事情换一种做法结果就不同了。人生道路上,改善心智模式和思维方式是很重要的。

7、聪明的男孩

有个小男孩,有一天妈妈带着他到杂货店去买东西,老板看到这个可爱的小孩,就打开一罐糖果,要小男孩自己拿一把糖果。但是这个男孩却没有任何动作。几次的邀请之后,老板亲自抓了一大把糖果放进他的口袋中。回到家中,母亲好奇地问小男孩,为什么没有自己去抓糖果而要老板抓呢?小男孩回答很妙:“因为我的手比较小呀!而老板的手比较大,所以他拿的一定比我拿的多很多!”

这是一个聪明的孩子,他知道自己的有限,而更重要的,他也知道别人比自己强。凡事不只靠自己的力量,学会适时地依靠他人,是一种谦卑,更是一种聪明。

8、听的艺术

美国知名主持人林克莱特有一天访问一名小朋友,问他说:“你长大后想要当做什么呀?”小朋友天真地回答:“嗯……我要当飞机的驾驶员!”林克莱特接着问:“如果有一天,你的飞机飞到太平洋上空所有引擎都熄火了,你会怎么办?”小朋友想了想:“我会先告诉坐在飞机上的人绑好安全带,然后我挂上我的降落伞跳出去。”当在场的观众笑得东倒西歪时,林克莱特继续注视着这孩子,想看他是不是自作聪明的家伙。没想到,接着孩子的两行热泪夺眶而出,这才使得林克莱特发觉这孩子的悲悯之心远非笔墨所能形容。于是林克莱特问他说:为什么你要这么做?”小孩的答案透露了这个孩子真挚的想法:“我要去拿燃料,我还要回来!!!” 这就是“听的艺术”。一是听话不要听一半。二是不要把自己的意思,投射到别人所说的话上头。要学会聆听,用心听,虚心听。

9、两个和尚

有两个和尚分别住在相邻的两座山上的庙里。两山之间有一条溪,两个和尚每天都会在同一时间下山去溪边挑水。不知不觉已经过了五年。突然有一天,左边这座山的和尚没有下山挑水,右边那座山的和尚心想:“他大概睡过头了。”便不以为然。哪知第二天,左边这座山的和尚,还是没有下山挑水,第三天也一样,直到过了一个月,右边那座山的和尚想:“我的朋友可能生病了。”于是他便爬上了左边这座山去探望他的老朋友。当他看到他的老友正在庙前打太极拳时。他十分好奇地问:“你已经一个月没有下山挑水了,难道你可以不喝水吗?”左边这座山的和尚指着一口井说:“这五年来,我每天做完功课后,都会抽空挖这口井。如今,终于让我挖出水,我就不必再下山挑水,我可以有更多时间练我喜欢的太极拳了。”

我们常常会忘记把握下班后的时间,挖一口属于自己的井,培养自己另一方面的实力。这样在未来当我们年纪大了,我们还依然会有水喝,而且还能喝得很悠闲。

10、学会舍弃

有两个人相约到山上去寻找精美的石头,甲背了满满的一筐,乙的筐里只有一个他认为是最精美的石头。甲就笑乙:“你为什么只挑一个啊?”乙说:“漂亮的石头虽然多,但我只选一个最精美的就够了。”甲笑而不语,下山的路上,甲感到负担越来越重,最后不得已不断地从一筐的石头中挑一个最差的扔下,到下山的时候他的筐里结果只剩下一个石头!

人生中会有许多的东西,值得留恋,有的时候你应该学会去放弃。

11、把心径扩大1毫米

有一家牙膏厂,产品优良,包装精美,受到顾客的喜爱,营业额连续10年递增,每年的增长率在10%~20%。可到了第11年,业绩停滞下来,以后两年也如此。公司经理召开高级会议,商讨对策。会议中,公司总裁许诺说:谁能想出解决问题的办法,让公司的业绩增长,重奖10万元。有位年轻经理站起来,递给总裁一张纸条,总裁看完后,马上签了一张10万元的支票给了这位经理。那张纸条上写着:将现在牙膏开口扩大1毫米。消费者每天早晨挤出同样长度的牙膏,开口扩大了l毫米,每个消费者就多用1毫米宽的牙膏,每天的消费量将多出多少呢!公司立即更改包装。第14年,公司的营业额增加了32%。

面对生活中的变化,我们常常习惯过去的思维方法。其实只要你把心径扩大1毫米,你就会看到生活中的变化都有它积极的一面,充满了机遇和挑战。

12、低头看路

那年放暑假,小胖跟父亲去看爷爷奶奶,途中要走三十里的路,还要翻过一道高高的山梁。走了两个多小时,还在梁上,望着遥遥无际的前方小胖怎么也不肯迈步了。父亲威严地命令道:“别尽往前瞅,低头看路,下了山梁就到了。”没办法,小胖只好怏怏地跟着。不过这以后,小胖不再一次次老眺望远远的目的地,而是低头看着脚下的路,不断欣赏着沿路那些形状各异的石块和花草,不知不觉就走到了爷爷奶奶家。

当你向一个大目标挺进时,不妨将这个目标分解成无数个眼前具有可见的小目标。道理很简单:一个关注远方的人,首先一定要学会关注眼前。

13、不可改变的真理

有一年,著名的美国哈佛大学,曾有一名教授给刚入学的新生出了一道测试题:一加一等于几?学生们一阵大笑之后想:这么简单的题,连三岁小孩都会,看来其中必有其他深意。于是有85%的同学竞没有给出答案,5%的同学回答是“三”,至于剩下10%的同学,答案五花八门。

于是,教授公布了最后答案:“二!”在学生们面面相觑之后,教授意味深长地说:“一加一等于二,这是一个不变的真理,不能、也不会因为外界因素的改变而改变。”

事实上,世界上很多事情都有一层虚拟的外表,就看我们怎么对待了。

14、智者的眼睛

电台请一位商界奇才做嘉宾主持,大家非常希望能听他谈谈成功之路。但他只是淡淡一笑,说:“还是出个题考考大家吧。”“某地发现了金矿,人们一窝蜂地拥去,然而一条大河挡住了必经之路。是你,会怎么办?” 有人说“绕道走”,也有人说“游过去”。商界奇才含笑不语,最后他说:“为什么非得去淘金,为什么不可以买一条船开展营运?” 大家愕然。商界奇才说:“那样的情况,就是宰得渡客只剩下一条短裤,他们也会心甘情愿的。因为,前面有金矿啊!”

干他人不想干的,做他人不曾做的,这就是成功之道。困境在智者眼中,往往意味着一个潜在的机遇。

15、和尚分粥

僧多粥少,每到开饭时,和尚们一拥而上,本来就少得可怜的粥被挤翻了。大家都挨饿。

和尚们推荐了一位长者分粥,可分粥者大权独掌,为能多分点粥,一些和尚开始溜须拍马,加上平时相互关系就有厚薄,分粥者把粥分的多的多,少的少。 饿得受不了的和尚提议轮流分粥。这下可好,轮到自己分时撑个半死,他人分时饿得发昏。

方丈云游回来了,决定由其中一名和尚全权分粥,其他不得有异,但又规定分粥者最后取粥。从此和尚们均等地吃上了热粥。

此故事告诉我们至少三个道理:①凡事必须有制度、机制去规范:②制度必须不断创新,与时俱进;③好的机制不一定复杂,复杂的机制不一定好。

16、成功

贝尔纳是法国著名的作家,在法国影剧史上占有重要的地位。有一次,法国一家报纸进行了一次有奖智力竞赛,其中有这样一个题目:如果法国最大的博物馆卢浮宫失火了,情况紧急,只允许抢救出一幅画,你会抢哪一幅? 结果在该报收到的成千上万回答中,贝尔纳以最佳答案获得该题的奖金。他的回答是:“我抢离出口最近的那幅画。”

成功的最佳目标不是最有价值的那个,而是最有可能实现的那个。

17、水桶的故事

从前人们使用木水桶打井水。一天,一位老兄家用的水桶烂掉几块板,而眼下又找不到合适的木板。他就随便找来几块长度不一的木板,重新匝好水桶。但是当他从水井里打起一桶水后,发现桶里盛的水比以前少,他心里很纳闷这是怎么回事?经过检查,他发现新换上的木板中有一块特别短,桶里的水都从那个地方淌出来,而那些长出的木板并不起作用。

一个系统的效率高低,不是取决于系统中某个体的最高效率,而是取决于它的最短点。所以,我们在系统工作中,要特别注意那些薄弱点(短处)。

18.礼物

一个佛陀在旅途中,碰到一个不喜欢他的人。连续好几天,好长一段路,那人用尽各种方法污蔑他。

最后,佛陀转身问那人:\"若有人送你一份礼物,但你拒绝接受,那么这份礼物属于谁呢?\" 那人回答:\"属于原本送礼的那个人。\" 佛陀笑着说:\"没错。若我不接受你的谩骂,那你就是在骂自己?\" 那人摸摸鼻子走了。

只要心灵健康,别人怎么想都影响不了我们。若我们一味地在乎别人的想法或说法,就会失去自主权。

19.猴子的执着

在亚洲,有一种捉猴子的陷阱,他们把椰子挖空,然后用绳子绑起来,接在树上或固定在地上,椰子上留了一个小洞,洞里放了一些食物,洞口大小恰好只能让猴子空着手伸进去,而无法握着拳头伸出来,于是猴子闻香而来,将它的手伸进去抓食物,理所当然地,紧握的拳头便缩不出洞口,当猎人来时,猴子惊慌失措,更是逃不掉。

没有任何人捉住猴子不放,它是被自己的执着所俘虏,它只需将手放开就能缩回来。

心中的欲念使我们放不下,内心的欲望与执着,使我们一直受缚,我们唯一要做的,只是将我们的双手张开,放下无谓的执着,就能逍遥自在了。

推荐第2篇:谚语故事

孟母三迁

孟子三岁丧父,由其母亲抚养成人。小时候住山东邹县城北二十五里的马鞍山下,村名叫范村,村不远有一片墓地,出殡的人群常从孟子家门口经过,於是孟子就模仿送殡的人,孟母看见了,认为「此非所以居吾子也」,就把家搬到城国北部的庙户营。可是这裏街上相当繁华,东部住一个杀猪屠户,孟子就学屠户的样子,整天嬉戏。孟母感到这裏也不宜培养孩子,便又移居於「学宫之院」,即县城南门外子思书院旁。从此,孟子被琅琅的读书声所吸引,孟母甚喜,就把孟子送进了这所学宫读书,他勤奋读书,终成大儒。

嫦娥的故事

相传,远古时候天上有十日同时出现,晒得庄稼枯死,民不聊生,一个名叫后羿的英雄,力大无穷,他同情受苦的百姓,登上昆仑山顶,运足神力,拉开神弓,一气射下九个多太阳,并严令最后一个太阳按时起落,为民造福。 后羿因此受到百姓的尊敬和爱戴,后羿娶了个美丽善良的妻子,名叫嫦娥。后羿除传艺狩猎外,终日和妻子在一起,人们都羡慕这对郎才女貌的恩爱夫妻。

不少志士慕名前来投师学艺,心术不正的蓬蒙也混了进来。

一天,后羿到昆仑山访友求道,巧遇由此经过的王母娘娘,便向王母求得一包不死药。据说,服下此药,能即刻升天成仙。然而,后羿舍不得撇下妻子,只好暂时把不死药交给嫦娥珍藏。嫦娥将药藏进梳妆台的百宝匣里,不料被小人蓬蒙看见了,他想偷吃不死药自己成仙。

三天后,后羿率众徒外出狩猎,心怀鬼胎的蓬蒙假装生病,留了下来。待后羿率众人走后不久,蓬蒙手持宝剑闯入内宅后院,威逼嫦娥交出不死药。嫦娥知道自己不是蓬蒙的对手,危急之时她当机立断,转身打开百宝匣,拿出不死药一口吞了下去。嫦娥吞下药,身子立时飘离地面、冲出窗口,向天上飞去。由于嫦娥牵挂着丈夫,便飞落到离人间最近的月亮上成了仙。

傍晚,后羿回到家,侍女们哭诉了白天发生的事。后羿既惊又怒,抽剑去杀恶徒,蓬蒙早逃走了,后羿气得捶胸顿足,悲痛欲绝,仰望着夜空呼唤爱妻的名字,这时他惊奇地发现,今天的月亮格外皎洁明亮,而且有个晃动的身影酷似嫦娥。他拼命朝月亮追去,可是他追三步,月亮退三步,他退三步,月亮进三步,无论怎样也追不到跟前。

后羿无可奈何,又思念妻子,只好派人到嫦娥喜爱的后花园里,摆上香案,放上她平时最爱吃的蜜食鲜果,遥祭在月宫里眷恋着自己的嫦娥。百姓们闻知嫦娥奔月成仙的消息后,纷纷在月下摆设香案,向善良的嫦娥祈求吉祥平安。

识字掠无蟛蜞

“识字掠无蟛蜞”是广泛流行于潮汕地区的一句俗语。意思是指循规蹈矩、照书行事者反而干不好事情。

“识”字音读“北”,义为识别。

康熙年间,清政府为了对付郑成功的复明活动,遏止海上武装力量与沿海民众的联合,实行了消极的靖边政策——海禁。当时潮汕沿海居被内迁五十里。整个韩江三角洲的饶平、澄海、潮州人民,皆在迁徙之列。沿海地带,划地筑堤为界,限期迫迁,边民越界出海捕捞者杀。告示出后,识字怕死的不敢越界到海滨谋生;有些不识字的深夜照样越界,捕了鱼虾蟛蜞,卖了钱,勉强度日。这样,识字的反倒吃亏。于是,这句话就这样传开了。

凡事学大丈

俗语:“凡事学大丈”意指做事心中无数,盲目跟从。“大丈”本指大姨父,潮汕习俗大人跟小孩称呼对方以示尊敬,所以襟弟称襟兄也称“大丈”。

“凡事学大丈”这个俗语,源出民间流传的一则“傻女婿故事”。传说以前有一位傻女婿要到岳母家祝寿,妻子怕他出洋相,便告诉他:“大姐夫是个知书识理的人,到了我妈家,你就跟他学着做就行了。”翌日,到了丈母娘(岳母)家,傻女婿便细心注意大女婿的一举一动,认真模仿。在筵席上,大女婿举杯向丈母娘祝寿,他也举杯祝寿;大女婿为丈母娘夹菜,他也夹菜;规规矩矩,很有风度。丈母娘心想小女婿虽没读书,也甚懂理,心里很高兴。席间大女婿掰分一粒蚶吃,并用手帕将蚶壳包下,然后又吃豆粉汤。小女婿一不留心没看清楚,以为大丈吃蚶是连壳吞下,心想这可能是礼貌吃法。于是,也拿了一粒蚶放进嘴里,拼命往喉咙里咽。这谈何容易,他被哽得好苦。大女婿见襟弟这般傻相,忍不住大笑一声,谁料刚吞下的豆粉丝从鼻孔中喷了出来。傻女婿见状,惊惧万分,忙把蚶壳吐出,连连说:“大丈啊大丈,你那„蛤蟆吞涎‟已经把我哽得半死。这一着„牛囝穿鼻‟我确实学不来!”弄得大丈哭笑不得,众人却被逗得哈哈大笑起来。

风叩橄榄

乘风叩橄榄 “乘风叩橄榄”,是流传于潮汕各地的俗语,也是潮汕历史上曾经发生过的实事。作为俗语,它嘲弄那些乘机捞一把的不良现象或趁火打劫的不法行为。作为史实,它曾发生于盛产橄榄的地方。

“乘风”的“风”,指的是台风。“叩橄榄”则是偷盗的行为。橄榄,是潮汕的土特产。潮汕橄榄品种繁多,驰名海内外的名优橄榄,有潮澄饶交界一带的乌种橄榄、潮阳金玉芦塘的三棱橄榄和揭西凤湖橄榄等。由于橄榄用途广,价值高,历来果农喜欢种植它,“鼠贼仔”也蓄意偷窃它。

澄海隆都南溪村有民谣:“南溪阿妈多,无好仔弟担阿妈去卖。”橄榄与“阿妈”音近似,“阿妈”即橄榄。而担阿妈去卖的仔弟,自然不是好仔弟。“无好仔弟”指的处那些愉“叩橄榄”的“鼠贼仔”。

当地人说,收获橄榄从来都是摘取,不是“叩”。“霜降,橄榄摘落瓮。”这农谚指明两点:一说收获橄榄季节是霜降;二说收获橄榄的方法是摘。摘取橄榄还要有相当的技术。一般是用1条竹藤制成的软性长梯,每梯格约1米,最长的梯有18格,即18米。操作人把梯倚于树冠边,顺梯爬上去后,用脚夹住梯格,手抓树枝,采摘橄榄,放进身后勾篮。摘取时最怕有风,更怕大风,因风吹树枝摇,操作人有危险,同时风吹树摇橄榄掉,掉下来的橄榄易损伤,不能久藏。只有“鼠贼仔”才“乘风叩橄榄”。因为台风到来,果园无人摘橄榄,“鼠贼仔”就乘此机会,用竹竿或石头偷“叩”橄榄。这样,风刮加偷“叩”,橄榄落满地,“鼠贼仔”偷走一部分,还剩下很多,风后园主巡查也弄不清是被风吹落,还是被人偷叩。“鼠贼仔”自以为这是其得意之作。但时日久长,终被发觉。这“乘风叩橄榄”就成了广为流传的俗语。如今,人们对于那些层层加码的乱收费等不正之风,也比如为“乘风叩橄榄”。

科比.布莱恩特是一个证明勤奋是如何起作用的很好的例子。当被他的一个好朋友问到他成功的秘诀的时候,他幽默而又意义深远地回答到:\"你知道洛杉矶凌晨四点的样子吗?我知道。\"很明显,这位曾经被认为不太适合打篮球的、人类历史上最伟大的篮球运动员之一的科比,如果没有勤奋的话,怎么可能在美职篮获得史无前例的成功呢?

今天介绍的是low profile,意思是不引人注目的形象,做事不爱引起他人太多的注意。 俚语词典解释:

low profile: a persona or character that does not draw attention.keep (a) low profile或者maintain (a) low profile: to behave in a way that does not attract attention 例句

I try to be quiet and keep a low profile.It's hard because I just love attention.我尽量安静并保持低调,对我来说很难,因为我喜欢被关注。

The government tries to keep low profile about this iue.政府力图在这个问题上保持低姿态。

You should keep a low profile until the trouble paes.在麻烦过去之前,你做事要保持低调。3 333333城里人瞧不起农村人,农村人看不上城里人,城里人和农村人总是互相瞧不起。乡巴佬、土包子、官迷、大爷......这些个称呼都带有明显的贬义色彩。

美国的城里人和乡下人也会互起贬低对方的称呼。住在像纽约这种大城市的居民往往把乡下人看成是一些土里土气、脑子很简单,而且容易上当受骗的人。他们认为,乡下人只会跟猪和牛打交道,可是不善于和人打交道。这些城里人经常把乡下人称为:hick。Hick这个字和中文里的乡巴佬差不多。

例如:See that well-dreed man acro the room? That's Mr.Green.When he came to New York 20 years ago, he was only a hick fresh out of the cornfields of Kansas.But he turned out to be a lot smarter than he looked; they say he made ten million dollars last year trading in the stock exchange.

你瞧屋子那边那个衣着很讲究的人。那是格林先生。二十年前他来纽约之前,只不过是勘萨斯州种玉米的乡巴佬。他当时虽然看起来不怎么样,但是脑子却非常灵活。他们说,去年他通过买进卖出 股票就赚了一千万美元。

又如:My roommate in my freshman year was a real hick.He came from a town so small it didn't have a stop light, a building with an elevator or a movie theater.

大学一年级时和我住一个房间的那个同学真是个乡巴佬。他的老家是一个非常小的镇,那里连红绿灯都没有,没有一个楼里有电梯的,甚至连电影院都没有。

美国农民的人数现在越来越少了。一百年前,美国有百分之四十二的人生活在农村。可是,随着城镇的发展和农业机械化,美国农民的人数现在已经下降到只占总人口的百分之二点二。在二十世纪,由于交通、收音机和电视的发展,城市和农村的区别已经在很大程度上消除了。可能正是因为这个原因,乡下人用来贬低城里人的名词很有限。他们常用的一个是:city slicker。Slick这个字的意思是很滑溜。所以,一个city slicker 也就是说话很圆滑,衣着很时髦,但是很可能是一个不老实、不可信任的家伙。

例如:Yep, I told Susie not to go out with any of them city slickers with their smooth talk and fancy clothes.If she has to go out, look for a farm boy.He may be a hick, but she can trust him a whole lot more.

是的,我告诉苏琦不要和那些圆嘴滑舌、衣着讲究的城里人出去玩。要是她一定要出去玩,找一个农村来的男孩。他也许是个乡巴佬,但至少是可以信得过的。

又如:Sure, a city slicker looks smart as long as he stays in a place like New York.But you put him down on a farm and he won't do much better than a newborn baby!

是的,一个油滑的城是的,一个油滑的城里人在像纽约这种地方看起来都很精明。但是,你要是把他送到农村去,他肯定什么也不会干,比一个新生婴儿好不了多少。 333平常人,普通人。An average Joe refers to someone who is just like everyone else; a normal person.'Average' means 'in the middle' or 'not extreme', and 'Joe' is a common male name.So 'average Joe' refers to a man who is not extremely different from everyone else.www.daodoc.com Average意思是“平均的,一般水平的”,而Joe又是一个极其常见的名字,所以人们就用average Joe来表示很普通的一个人。例如我们会说,雷?罗马诺是这个时代全美最受欢迎的电视明星之一,可他却似乎不把自己当成什么大人物,仿佛就是与你生活在同一座城市里的“average Joe”。

3 not know Jack about 对某事一无所知。如: I don't know jack about fishing意思就是I don't know anything about fishing(我对钓鱼一无所知)。而I don’t know Jack的意思就是“我什么也不知道”。关于Jack,还有两个常见的句子。Do you know jack shit? 意思就是问别人, “你知不知道什么叫无知? 在美国的口语中, jack shit 算是一句粗话,意思是什么也没有。 4 John Q.Public 普通人。在美语中,John Q.Public也是指“普通人,民众”。类似的词组是:John Q.Citizen.美语里还有很多与John有关的词组,如:big John(新兵),cheap John(乱杀价的商人; 叫卖小贩),honest John(诚实的人; 容易上当的人),square John(诚实可靠的人; 奉公守法的人)。 5 Jeez Louise 表示惊讶。如:One million? Jeez-Louise! You get any of that? ( 一百万?老天!有你的份吗?) Jeez Louise, don't you know that all banks are closed today? It is Saturday.(天啊,你难道不知道今天银行不营业吗?今天可是周六)。 6 For Pete’s sake 感叹词,用以强烈表达情绪,意为“哎呀,天哪”,有些地方也译作“看在上帝面上;千万;务必”等。在这个短语中,Pete是耶酥大弟衣物,其中一子St.Peter的昵称。常在恳求或请求他人时使用。如:For Pete's sake,stop making so much noise.(哎呀,天哪!别弄出那么讨厌的声音啦!) 此外,它还应用于其他种种不同的场合。假设你向别人道了歉,他还没完没了,这时你可以说:I said I was sorry.What else do you want me to do, for Pete's sake?(我已经说对不起了,拜托,你还想叫我怎样啊?) 类似的表达方式还有for Christ sake,for heaven's sake,for mercy’s sake,for pity’s sake,for God’ sake.For Christ's sake和for God's sake有亵渎神明之嫌,一般避免使用。但在重大事件的场合是可以使用的,不受限制。

正因为在严重事件的场合使用。所以for Christ's sake和for God's sake语气最强,其次是for Pete's sake,其余的大致相同。另外,在使用时,男女有别。for Pete's sake和for God’sake多为男性使用。for goodne’sake,for heaven's sake,以及for pity's sake的使用者以女性居多,但男性在表示特别强烈的感情时也可以使用。但for mercy's sake几乎只有女性使用。 7 a doubting Thomas 生性多疑的人。源自《圣经?新约?约翰福音》第20章。该篇讲到耶稣复活后出现在众人面前,十二门徒之一托马斯没有亲眼见到,声称除非看到他手上的钉痕,用手探入他的肋旁,否则不信他已复活。后来人们用“doubting Thomas”指那些不肯轻易相信别人的人。

He’s a real doubting Thomas — he simply wouldn’t believe I’d won the car until he saw it with his own eyes.他是一个真正的怀疑主义者—在没有看到之前他就是不相信我赢得那辆车。 8 a plain Jane 长相不起眼,外貌平凡的女人。这里的plain是“不惹人注目的,朴素的”,而Jane是一般女人名,plain与Jane合辙押韵。如:I wonder why a handsome man like Jeff married such a plain Jane.我很奇怪像杰夫这样出色的男子怎么与一个不怎么起眼的姑娘结婚。 9 Joe Blow 老百姓,普通人。Joe Doakes也可以表示这个意思。美国口语中,Joe College指典型的美国大学生,Joe Miller则指滑稽书,笑话集。www.daodoc.com 10 Sheila 在口语中表示少女,年轻貌美的女子。一般为女子英文名,译为希拉,类似于Shelly, Cecilia.11 No way, Jose “不可能的荷西”,常用于熟人之间拒绝做某事。Jose并不表示叫这个名的人,而是跟way押韵,说起来响亮,好听。这种说法始于20世纪60年代美国乡村。 12 not know a person from Adam 不知(某人)模样如何,与(某人)素不相识。源自《圣经?旧约?士师记》第

2、3章。上帝创造了世界上的第一个男人,取名为亚当(Adam)。因为亚当非女人所生,所以没有肚脐,是最容易辨认的人,“not know somebody from Adam”就表示“完全不认识某人”。 Mrs.Smith is a friend of mine, but I don’t know her husband from Adam.史密斯太太是我的朋友,但我完全不认识她丈夫。 13 Jack of all trades 万事通。一般指杂而不精,也就是我们平时所说的“三脚猫”。Jack of all trades and master of none.门门精通,样样稀松。 14 Uncle Sam 美国。它源自1812-1814年间美英战争时期的一个历史传说。相传在纽约州的特洛伊城(Troy))有位年长的肉类加工商,名叫山缪尔?威尔逊(Samuel Wilson)。他勤劳、诚实、能干,很有威信,人们亲切地叫他山姆大叔(Uncle Sam)。他也是一位爱国者,与父兄曾参加过美国独立战争。在1812年的美英战争中,他的工厂与政府签了一份为军队生产桶装牛肉的合同,美国政府每当收到他交来的经其亲自检验合格的牛肉,就将肉装入特制的木桶,并在桶上盖上US的记号。由于Uncle Sam的首字母是US,而美国(The United States)的缩写也是U.S.,于是人们便把这两个名称合二为一了。当地的人们就把“山姆大叔”当成美国的绰号,并逐渐流传开来。 15 John Hancock 亲笔签名。John Hancock是在The Declaration of Independence(美国独立宣言)上署名的独立战士中,将自己的名字签得又好又大的一个人,他的签名美观大方而且个头也比别的签名大。所以美国人常把John Hancock当作signature(署名,签名)的意思.。如:I need your John Hancock.我需要您的签名。 16 Johnny One Note 五音不全的人。也可以指思想狭隘,看问题片面的人。Note在这里的意思是音符。 444猜疑伤害莫逆之交。

在这里,他运用的是所谓的英语“押韵俚语”(Cockney Rhyming Slang)其中,tit for tat(原义为“针锋相对”)是 hat(帽子) 的押韵俚语,同样,crust of bread(面包片)代替 head(头),daisy roots(雏菊花根)代替 boots(靴子),plates of meat(肉盘)代替 feet(脚),apples and pears(苹果和梨)代替 stairs(楼梯),而 elephant's trunk(大象鼻子)则代替 drunk(喝醉了的)。

押韵俚语(Cockney Rhyming Slang)是英国伦敦下层社会中应用的非正式的口语(Cockney 意思为“伦敦佬”,是对伦敦社会下层人士的蔑称)。这种口语之所以称为押韵俚语,是因为他们用同正式语押韵的词来代替正式语。上面例子中的 tit for hat 就同 hat 押韵,同样,crust of bread 也同 head 押韵。

押韵俚语有一个特点,即代替一个正式词语要用含有两个或两个以上词(element)的词组。其它押韵俚语的例子还有不少。例如:

trouble and strife(原义为“麻烦和冲突”)代替 wife(妻子)

Bruels sprout(原义为“球芽甘蓝”)代替 scouts(童子军)

以上所说的都是完整的押韵俚语,但在实际运用中,伦敦佬们往往用它们的省略形式。值得一提的是,省略的押韵俚语中省略的部分不是其中的第一个词,而是第二个词,即用来押韵的那部分。因此,如果一个人说:My plates are killing me.其实际意义为 My plates of meat are killing me.即 My feet hurt.同样 tit for tat 可以省略成为 tit,crust of bread 可省略成 crust 等等。这样,文章开头的那句话也可以说成:

I put my tit on my crust and my daisy on my plates and fell down the apples because I was elephant's.

以上为典型的英语押韵俚语。其实英语中有许多可以接受的非正式用法是由押韵俚语升级而来的, 而有时甚至说标准英语的人都不知道它们的来源。例如,英语中有 Use your loaf(动动脑筋)实际上就是由Use your loaf of bread 省略而来, 即 Use your head 的押韵俚语。其中 loaf of bread(面包条)是head(脑筋)的押韵俚语。

再如:英国人常说:We must get down to bra tacks.(我们必须讨论实际问题。)其中 bra tacks(黄铜平头钉)是 facts(事实)的押韵俚语,tacks 和facts 押韵。

又如:英语中有一个短语:take a butcher's,它其实是 take a butcher's hook(butcher's hook 原义为“屠夫的钩子”)的省略形式,即take a look(看一眼)的押韵俚语。

同样,英语中还有其它常见的词也出自押韵俚语,而这些词许多人不知其出处,似乎它们可以用于正式场合,而实际上它们却是英语中的“禁忌语”(taboo words)。例如:

Bristols 表示 breasts(“乳房”),来源于 Bristol City,是titty的押韵俚语,titty 是 breast 的禁忌语,复数:Bristols—titties.

cobblers 的意思是 testicles(“睾丸”),来源于cobblers' awls(鞋匠的锥子)是 balls 的押韵俚语,ball是 testicles 的禁忌语。

伦敦金融界行话(jargon)中有一种类似押韵俚语,也很有意思。这些行话比起一般的押韵俚语更晦涩难解。例如:

I asked him for a price of a Hawaii but he would only quote me in a lady.一句,局外人很难理解其真实含义。

其中,Hawaii 原义为“夏威夷”,但在这儿代表的是“fifty million”,而 a lady 却代表 five million.这句话的意思是:“我向他要价5,000万(英镑),而他却只出500万。”

在这儿,Hawaii 来自一个电视节目“Hawaii Five-O”,Five-O当然代表50 million;lady 是 Lady Godiva 的省略形式。(Lady Godiva 是著名的 Peeping Tom典故中的女主人公。)Lady Godiva 同fiver(five million)押韵。

英镑同美元的兑换比率称为 cable,来自于英美间的跨大西洋的电缆(cable), 因而英镑同美元的兑换比率在伦敦金融行话中也称为 Betty,来自于女演员Betty Grable,因为这个名字同 cable 押韵。

其它情况还有:

货币名称:

yen(日元)— Bill'n Ben

dollar(美元)— Oxford Scholar

guilder(荷兰盾)— boat builder

mark(德国马克)— smudge(smudge 的意思是a small mark)

数目:

one —a Spaniard (Juan)(Don Juan为西班牙一传奇人物)

a pair —Lionel (Blair) (一位舞蹈家)

three — carpet (flea)(地毯跳蚤)

four — Desmond (Tutu)(Desmond Tutu 为南非的大主教,用Tutu来表示four自然是因为Two twos are four)

five — a steep hill(来自于one-in-five 1 : 5的坡度)

eight— a garden (gate) 或 John Curry(John Curry是一位花样滑冰运动员,用它显然是因为 skate 的缘故)

ten — Cockle (and Hen)(公鸡和母鸡)

a score — a motor-bike(人们很难将 motor-bike 和20 联系起来,而其中的原因却是骑手双手握住车把手,给发动机加油门两次手指共用 20 个。)

a half — a laugh

seven-eighths— seven Henries(Henry 为 Henry VIII 之略)

three quarters— three farmers(farmers 为 farmers' daughters 之略)

在人类交往中, 俚语是一个十分难以理解的成分, 而押韵俚语,如果不知其来源,理解起来会更加困难,而一旦了解了,它们又变得如此趣味盎然。了解一些押韵俚语对于熟悉英国社会、文化、风俗习惯以及进行实际交际都会有很大的帮助 8888 英文名人名言 英文名人名言

两者都为“年老的”,但有细微的差别。 elderly 指中年与暮年之间的年龄,表示人已过中年,因此,这词常用来代替 old。如:an elderly gentleman.一位年长的绅士。elder指年龄稍长者,适用于家庭的兄弟姐妹之间。如: Tom is the elder of the two.汤姆是两个孩子中较大的一个。

expensive 表示“昂贵的”。如:the drink was cheap , but the food was very expensive .饮料很便宜,但食物很贵。 precious 表示“珍贵的,宝贵的”。如:the children are precious to me .孩子们对我来说很重要。

三词都为“令人厌烦的”,但有区别:boring 概念最广,尤指引起人厌倦、枯燥的谈话文章,也指令人生厌的人。 如:the talk was very long and boring.这篇谈话冗长,毫无趣味。 dull 与 boring 极为相近,也指因呆板或缺乏趣味性而令人感到厌倦。如: a dull book 一本枯燥的书。 tiresome主指单调沉闷而产生疲倦厌烦。如:it\'s tiresome to be funny for a whole evening整晚上都逗笑取乐是很疲劳的。

教育家叶圣陶先生说过,教育就是要培养学生良好的习惯。著名心理学家王极盛教授经过多年的调查研究表明,不良学习习惯对学习成绩具有重大的影响。在被调查的人群中,有72.8%的学生都认为不良学习习惯对学习成绩具有影响。王教授指出,中考、高考状元的最大秘诀,就是热爱学习,并拥有良好的学习习惯。

学习需要方法更需要养成一种良好的学习习惯。

要培养良好的学习习惯,要从以下三方面来努力。

(一)要充分认识什么样的学习习惯是良好的学习习惯,什么样的学习习惯能提高人的学习效能。

(二)向周围优秀的学生学习,也从自己的成功经历中来总结。

(三)持之以恒地应用与实践。

那么,哪些是良好的学习习惯,如何养成良好的学习习惯是我们重点学习的内容。

(一)科学用脑的习惯——毛泽东同志说;“睡眠和休息丧失了时间,但却取得了工作的精力.”只有善于休息,保持清醒的头脑和充沛的精力,才能提高学习效率。

1、重视劳逸结合

2、注意合理营养

3、交替学习

4、摸索出自己的生物钟

5、学会休息

(二)合理利用时间的习惯——只有懂得珍惜零星时间的人,才能真正的珍惜时间。善于挤时间的人,可用的时间才会比别人多,才能取得更优异的学习成绩。

1、有计划地支配时间

2、专时专用,讲求效率

3、今日事今日毕

4、活用零星时间

(三)为更好地学习作准备的习惯——重视预习,选择一本最适合自己的参考书,一定会给自己的学习带来很大的帮助。

1、坚持课前预习

2、读透课本

3、联系已学知识

4、善于质疑

5、选择适合的参考书

(四)课堂学习中的习惯——听课是接受知识最关键的途径,课堂上的45分钟是最宝贵的时刻,要想提高学习效率,必须抓紧这有限的45分钟。课堂上的全力投入、认真听讲可以省去课下的许多麻烦。

1、认真听课

2、善做笔记

3、积极答问

4、勇于提问

5、抓住每堂课的特点

(五)课后的学习习惯——我们听完老师讲课之后,就如同吃了一顿美餐,虽然味道很好,但是却不一定能够消化和吸收掉。只有课后及时的复习总结,才能消化吸收好新知识,牢固掌握课堂学习的内容。

1、课后及时复习总结

2、认真完成作业

3、从书本回到生活

4、及时查漏补缺

5、随时自测

6、整理错题集

(六)学习思维习惯——出色的学习要有独立思考的能力、只有通过思考,才能悟出其中的道理来。这既包括对知识的理解、贯通,也包括对学习方法的改进、完善,也就是想通、想透一个理儿、一种智慧。

1、独立思考

2、思维要创新

3、把知识串起来

4、总结经验与规律

(七) 好的阅读习惯——古今中外许多卓有成就的学者、专家的一个共同特点,就是他们不但善于从社会生活中获得各种知识,而且善于从大量的书籍中获得知识。“多读书,读好书”、“广泛涉猎、开阔思路”、“读书破万卷,下笔如有神”,这些有益的格言警句,就是他们读书治学经验的总结。

1、晨读

2、广泛的阅读

3、勤做读书笔记

4、积累知识

5、制定详细的阅读计划

6、背诵

(八) 良好的应对考试的习惯——学习的目的是为了掌握文化知识,我们只有不断的提高素质,才能取得高考中考的胜利,才能为进入大学深造和步入社会奠定良好的文化基础和能力素质基础。因此在考试之后,要仔细认真地对试卷进行总结,总结失利的教训,促进自己在原有的基础上有更进一步的提高。

1、事半功倍的复习

2、要避免考前“开夜车”

3、从容面对考试

4、仔细审题,认真检查

5、书写要快、齐、准

6、考后要及时总结

(九)有效管理自我的习惯——学习是场持久战,是马拉松赛跑,是从一砖一石开始积累起来的知识的高楼大厦。战争要有整体的战略方案,盖楼要先有蓝图,同理,学习也离不开合理的学习计划。

1、制定适合自己的学习计划

2、适当给自己加压

3、拒绝粗心大意

4、培养学习的兴趣

5、培养专注精神

6、自觉抵制不良诱惑

7、激发好奇心

(十)合理要求自己的习惯——性格体现在行动中,并通过行动来塑造。实践应具有广泛性。学习实践、生产实践都可以磨练人的性格。特别要注意在复杂多变生活中,培养一种乐观向上的精神,培养不怕困难、勇于斗争的品格,从而适应学习和社会的需要。

1、正视失败

2、积极而主动地学习

3、学会用耳朵倾听

4、明确奋斗目标

5、选择适合自己的学习方法

6、扬长避短

7、持之以恒,始终如一

8、塑造良好的性格

(十一)培养良好的同学关系的习惯——英国大文豪萧伯纳曾有过这样一句名言:“假如你有一个苹果,我也有一个苹果,我们彼此交换,那么我们仍然是各有一个苹果,但是,假如你有一种思想,我也有一种思想,而我们彼此交流,那么我们每个人至少各有两种思想。

1、与同学合作

2、正确对待同学间的竞争

3、发现同学的优点

4、与同学交流

5、乐于帮助同学

6、不耻下问

(十 二)培养良好的家庭关系的习惯——家庭是我们的第一课堂,父母是我们的首任老师,因而家庭是我们成长的襁褓和最重要的基地,所谓“成也萧何,败也萧何”。我们都知道,一个民主的家庭氛围,可以让我们在平等、和睦、融洽的环境中成长,有利与培养我们随和、豁达而有乐观的情感和品性。

1、孝敬父母

2、营造欢快的气氛

3、充分地理解父母

4、善于和父母沟通

(十三)培养良好的师生关系的习惯——从幼儿园到小学,到初中到高中,一直到大学,老师引领我们学习科学文化知识,教会我们学习做人的道理,也许老师在每个学生的人生发展中都扮演着重要的角色。

1、把老师当成朋友

2、尊重老师

3、多与老师沟通

4、学会适应老师

(十四)养成良好的生活习惯——身体健康、精力充沛的同学上课时易于专心致志,相反,身体虚弱、病痛缠身的同学,课堂上就很难集中精力。因此,同学们平时应多参加体育活动,使自己有一个强健的体魄。

1、保证充足的睡眠

2、加强体育锻炼

3、营造好的书房环境

4、整理学习物品

5、早饭必不可少

6、超越游戏

(十 五)培养高尚人格的习惯——一个人要想获得成功,就必须拥有积极的心态以及必胜的信心。在每个人的人生旅途中,在每个人积极行动的过程中,一定都会遇到许许多多的问题和困难,只有坚持永不放弃的精神,不断地自我鞭策,自我激励,才能战胜自己,战胜困难,最后达成自己的目标。

1、永不放弃

2、谦虚谨慎

3、冷静乐观

4、强烈的责任心

5、勇于承认错误

(十 六)善于调节心理的习惯——挫折、打击、负担过重等对人产生外在压力,这种外在压力又会转化为情绪上的焦虑、心理上的紧张、精神上的负担等内在压力。当内在压力到达一定程度时,我们要像对待烈日下的轮胎一样,学会释放一些压力,缓解精神的紧张,调节不良情绪,学会给自己减轻负担。

1、树立自信心

2、坦然面对压力

3、克服嫉妒心理

4、克服消极情绪

5、脚踏实地,消除浮躁

6、直面挫折,选择坚强

7、要有必胜的决心

走过心灵的沼泽地

人生犹如一列奔驰的火车,从降临人世的那句嘹亮的鸣笛声起,我们便自主,或不由自主地开始了马不停蹄的向前走。走过白昼黑夜,走过春夏秋冬,走过山川河流,走过沙漠戈壁,走过狂风暴雨,走过冰天雪地,走过伤害痛苦,走过沧海桑田,直至终点,画上我们人生完美无憾的句号。

走过一段曲折的旅程后,我们喜欢回眸潺潺的岁月。如果静下心来好好想想,或许我们会不禁油然感叹,人这一辈子,无论是走过坎坷还是沟壑,无论是走过诱惑还是迷茫,无论是走过忧伤还是痛苦,我们必须首先走过自己心灵的那块沼泽地,只有这样,我们才可能顺利抵达事业的彼岸。

外在的陷阱无所不在,内在的沼泽无时不有。在我们的内心深处,或多或少蛰伏着贪婪、恐惧、自私、迷茫、软弱、嫉妒、悲观、虚荣、自卑和仇恨,它们如同鳄鱼一般潜伏在心灵沼泽,随时会将真诚、善良、美丽和信念一点一点吞噬掉,从而不知不觉丧失斗志,自甘坠落,走向毁灭。

或许我们不难发现,现实生活中有那么一部分人,如贝多芬,如张海迪,如史铁生,如霍金,他们虽然遭遇了生命的沼泽,却因祸得福地走上了成功的道路。在我们扼腕惊叹的时候,在我们望尘莫及的时候,在我们简单地把一切归于机会的时候,我们很难想象他们曾经怎样走过心灵沼泽。

天下根本没有轻而易举的成功机会,这些人之所以能够获得成功,是因为他们具有我们很难看到的,往往被我们轻易忽略的,走过心灵沼泽地的能力。这种能力并非只有他们才具备,当恶运惠顾他们时,出乎意外地刺激了他们的潜能,一种用良好的心态将不利因素转化为成功因子的潜能。

这种潜能的发挥有助于获取成功,但成功的意义不在于追求的结果,而在于追求的过程,一般来讲追求多少就要走过多少。不走过凛冽的寒冬,就没有腊梅的芬芳;不走过熊熊的烈火,就没有凤凰的重生;不走过狭隘的自私,就没有瑰丽的博爱;不走过放纵的贪婪,就没有甜蜜的幸福。

生活不可能一帆风顺,岁月不可能一尘不染,人生不可能一举成功。走过了寂寞,心灵会绽放洁白的花朵;走过了昨天,回忆会滋生温暖的色彩;走过了沙漠,生命会留下串串的脚印;走过了磨难,双手会收获成熟的茧子;走过了心灵沼泽地,我们会变得更清醒更理性更智慧更无所畏惧。

只有走过心灵的沼泽地,我们才会站稳脚跟,我们才会挺直腰板,我们才会抬起头颅,我们才会乐观豁达,我们才会越挫越勇,我们才会坚持不懈,我们才会海阔天空,我们才会英姿勃发,我们才会四季灿烂,我们才会激情燃烧,我们才会书写传奇,我们才会走出坚实稳健且精彩纷呈的人生!

因为简单所以快乐

在当今竞争的高速公路上,你追我赶的现代人,绝大多数都希望自己的生活能够达到\"简单并快乐着\"的最佳状态。但现在看来,这种生活状态只能是一种奢想或内心的祈祷,因为大家都被实实在在的生活压得喘不过气来,甚至迷失自己。追求物质财富的欲望,把人们折磨得精疲力竭。人格商品化带来的虚伪、利欲,导致精神的贫乏、失落。人们迫切希望寻求生活的真谛,为心灵与精神辟出一片净土,寻觅一处赖以生存的宁静港湾。向往过一种简单且快乐的生活:真诚、和谐、悠闲。

提起简单的生活,人们总误解为过一种苦行僧的生活,辞去优厚待遇的工作,抛弃公寓和汽车,清心寡欲。其实不尽然,\"简单\"是平息外部喧嚣,回归内在自我宁静真实的自然状态。\"简单生活\"是一种不求繁复,无拘无束的精神自在;是一种超脱世俗,淡泊致远的生活态度;是一种选择,让生活更贴近自然。无论是普通人,还是亿万富翁,同样可以选择过简单自由的生活,关键是你自己的选择和感觉。简单的生活并不意味着物质的匮乏,它不受任何繁琐碎事和吹毛求疵的羁绊。生活要过得简单而又不乏味,有情趣而不怪异,这就看你自己如何运用生活技巧来处理生活中的琐事了。

那么快乐是什么呢?快乐来源于\"简单生活\",是一种生活态度。具有乐观、豁达、坦然性格的人,无论什么时候,他们都能发掘蕴藏在生活中的无穷乐趣。即使在黑夜,也能觅到天空微弱闪烁的星光。在我们周边常听到抱怨生活不公平、不如意的声音,他们总是跨不过那扇快乐之门,被抑郁、忧伤困扰。其实这只能让烦恼更进一步消耗人们的意志和自信,损害自己的健康,有百害而无一利,对改善自己的境遇毫无帮助。想要追求快乐,需要相当的智悟。很多不快乐的人,他们痛苦的来源是因为\"把自己摆错了位置\",总要按照一个不切实际的计划生活,总要跟自己过不去,总觉得生不逢时,机遇未到,所以整天郁闷不乐。而快乐的人明智地摆正了自己的位置,工作得心应手,生活有滋有味。因为他们懂得生活的艺术,知道适时进退,取舍得当。快乐把握在今天,而不是等待将来。事实上,每天能够做自己喜欢的事情,不在乎外表的虚荣,快乐和幸福才会伴随而来。

简单如小鸟翱翔在一片空灵的蓝天,自由飞翔;快乐如永不枯竭的清泉,一路欢歌。简单和快乐使人的灵魂得以宁静,使人的精力得以恢复,使美德更加芬芳。我们的精神与心情都从简单快乐中得到滋润。我们热爱简单有意义的生活,我们希望快乐永随每个人的身边。从现在起,我们尽可能简单、快乐地生活吧!

春日细语

春天来了,万物复苏,昨日下午天气阴霾,按照过往的经验应该是下着绵绵春雨;古言说,“春雨贵如油”这两天全国各地都是干旱急报。人们渴望着一场春雨绵绵,润湿那天气干涸的大地,给那春播下着及时雨,刚刚离开的冬天雪没来,今年春季第一场雨却悄然而至。正如人生里有些不期而遇的美好,总在你淡忘时,在你不存在希翼时也许会悄然而至。

早上下到楼梯间门口时,才蓦然发觉,昨夜里下了一场雨。地上湿渌渌的,天空中依然洒着细细的雨点,有些凉凉的湿气扑面而来,凉爽的天空夹杂着春的气息。今年春天的第一场和风细雨就这样悄然而至。也许是在我昨夜不曾察觉的睡梦里。

一年之际在于春;万元复始。人们出户外透透气,享受大自然给人们带来的春意盎然,我沿着平常早出的路线,向江边的防洪墙上走来,清凉空气扑面而至。由于寒冬停止了晨练,近有一月之余了。相隔长时间没有来到这里,对日新月异变化生疏了些,顺着广宽的利民路向西所见去年下半年刚刚才拆迁完的江埂旁;那些破烂不堪陈旧房屋已经荡然无存,按规划滨江大道二段的初见成效,一条毛石路基呈现在面前。我漫不经心地上了防洪墙,沿着江埂的栽种大小不一的柳树行行,根根柳条上挂着晶莹剔透的水珠,柔嫩的枝条渐渐绽出新芽儿,细小的两个瓣儿,黄中透绿,在料峭的寒风中让人感到丝丝暖意。还有枝条垂挂在路中间,撩来撩去。那招摇过市,引起路人的注意,向人们报春来了。

细柳仿佛轻声细语地对人们说;我开始冬眠经过休整苏醒了,显露出青春活力,嫩芽也悄悄开始发青了。青枝挂头,枝条上冒着小小的细细绒绒苞蕾,那柳梢儿越抽越长,越长越绿,软软的,绵绵的,婀娜多姿,意气风发,荡漾在微风中,仿佛刚刚出浴的少女的长发,把春天的原野装扮得格外靓丽。“杨柳青青着地垂,杨花漫漫搅天飞”,柳树在春风中飘飘洒洒。柳枝绒苞顺风荡漾,轻轻抚着脸宠上我人们逗着乐。提醒人们早春二月的到来。尽情地享受着那和煦的春风,带来了清新扑面的絮语。

柳树它有着无比的适应性,许许多多的须根深深地扎在泥土里,伸向四面八方,紧紧地拥抱大地。它没有松树的伟岸挺拔,也不像杨树那样正直不屈。主干通常在二三米处就长出分枝,当纷纷扬扬的柳絮在春风里轻盈舞动着和大地轻轻接吻,经过一番“云雨”后,便孕育出细嫩的芽芽,几年之后长成小树。光滑柔软的枝条状若丝绦,纷披下垂。柳叶是单叶互生,叶片狭长但宽窄相宜,形如少女细长的眉毛,正如“芙蓉如面柳如眉”。更有那“无心插柳柳成荫”许许多多的须根深深地扎在泥土里,伸向四面八方。细柳枝条绒绒,似如青春美貌女子善歌善舞摆弄的裙子,撒落于广袤原野的怀抱里。

见物思情不禁想起了我老家门前池塘边的柳树,池塘四面就有三面是柳树环抱,一头仰卧在池塘的水面上,庞杂毛根深深扎在池塘旁土地上,也有一些则赤条条毛根露出马脚伸长在池塘沿边的水面旁。每当在这个时节,从树杆上,透出的青枝细柳,万条垂下绿丝绦,条条挂在池塘水面上。微风吹拂,左右摇摆,垂下枝头的柳絮,逗乐着漂浮在水上的大小小鸭子,鸭子在那柳树下游荡,还不时地轻声絮语和柳条聊天斗斗乐,鸭子总是伸长着颈子,天生好吃地张开了那扁扁长嘴,馋涎欲滴的舌头向柳条添来添去。想一口吃下柳絮开着的黄绿色的花,漂浮水面的鸭子始终得不到口中。互相争夺战的鸭子叽叽喳喳吵闹不息。得也有的是睡熟一般。单只鸭子沉思不语,显得沉思,两只鸭子躲开一旁呱呱不息,互聊情感。大部分还是在细柳的陪伴下悠悠自得尽心地玩耍。

我爱春天!

第15篇:英语谚语

英语谚语大全

英语谚语大多 起源于 民间口语,也有一部分源于 文化典籍或 宗教文献。它们源远流长,在历史长河里兼收并蓄,得到不断的丰富和发展。经过千锤百炼,终成为简洁生动、意味深长、富有哲理的英语的精华。本文主要从 民间口语、文化典籍和 宗教文献3 个方面对英语谚语的 起源进行了探讨,旨在揭示谚语所反映的社会的发展进程、人民群众的思想观念、价值取向及其超越时空的价值和意义。恩格斯在《自然辩证法:劳动在从猿到人转变过程中的作用》中指出:“语言是从劳动当中并和劳动一起产生出来的⋯⋯”[1 ]语言是一种社会存在物,是随着人类的实践而形成发展起来的交流系统,是人类社会实践的共同创造物。作为日常口语的一部分,谚语的 起源十分悠久。其源头是人类先民的生产劳动,他们的实践、感知和经验,经过漫长的历史进程,不断积累、概括和提炼,并随着社会的发展和人们活动范围的扩大,传播开来。始于 民间口语的英语谚语,在传流的过程中,伴随文字的出现,逐渐进入到书面文献中。 文化典籍中的“雅谚”有些可追溯到民间流传的“俗谚”,有些已不可考,但萌生于 民间口语或是由某些大众化说法提炼而来应是不争的事实。本文主要从 民间口语、文化典籍、宗教文献3 个方面对英语谚语的 起源进行探讨,旨在揭示谚语所反映的人类生产、生活历程和超越时空的价值和意义。

一、民间口语谚语是在群众中流传的固定语句,用简单通俗的话反映出深刻的道理。英语谚语绝大多数来自民间,是人民群众生活经验的总结,人力资源咨询凝结着人民大众的智慧。英语谚语中有大量关于农业生产、气象、渔牧、狩猎的谚语,如气象谚语、节令谚语、农事要诀等,通常称为“农谚”。 Evening red and morning grey are the signs of a fineday.(晚霞红,晨雾蒙,天会晴。) A red sky at night is the shepherds’delight .(向晚天发红,羊倌喜盈盈。) Rain from the east ; wet two days at the least .(风雨东方起,至少两天雨。) 这几个谚语反映的都是气象常识,如热冷的交替,晚霞、晨雾主晴等,都是从事农业生产的先民长期的经验积累形成的对天气的认识。 Ill weeds grow fast .(杂草长得快。) Out of old field comes new corn.(老田出新谷。) A year of snow , a year of plenty.(瑞雪兆丰年。) After a rainy winter follows fruitful spring.(今冬雨水足,来春果满枝。) 这几条谚语反映了人民群众对田地、庄稼特点的认识,还表达了他们对五谷丰登的祈盼。先民们生产工具落后,生活条件恶劣,随时面临着毒蛇猛兽的侵袭和疾病带来的死亡,加之当时交通不便,隔山隔水,交流少,活动范围窄,所以“家”的观念在人们心中非常强。面对严酷的大自然,他们唯有在“家”里才能得到慰藉,找到安全感。下面的几条谚语正是“家”或乡土观念的反映。 East or west , home is best .(东好西好,家里最好。) There is no place like home.(没有什么地方能像家里一样。) Better at home than a mile away from it .(在家万般好,出门时时难。) Every one seeks his own house.(家是自己的好先民们除从事繁重的农业生产劳动外,还会打猎或捕鱼以弥补生活的匮乏,这方面的经验在英语谚语中也有所反映。 Hunger drives the wolf out of the woods.(饥饿引狼出森林。) Great fish are caught in great waters.(要抓大鱼,就下大海。) The fish will soon be caught that nibbles at the everybait .(爱咬钩的鱼逃不掉。) A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.(一鸟在手胜过二鸟在林。) An old fox is not easily snared.(老狐狸难上圈套。) Two dogs will kill a lion.(两狗可杀一狮。) If you run after two hares , you will catch neither.(一人追二兔,难免两手空。) 人类早期的生产劳动,由于生产工具原始,完全靠体力,靠长时间的辛苦劳作,翻土、播种、收割都有时间、季节限制,耽误不得,正所谓“农时不可误”;又由于渐渐意识到生命无常,生命短暂,因而感叹时光短促、劝人珍惜时间的英语谚语不少。 All time is no time when it is gone.(光阴一去不复返。) Time is money.(时间就是金钱。) Time flies.(时光如梭。) 早期的人类势单力薄,无论是农耕或狩猎,都以群体出动、集体协作为主,有些英谚正是反映集思广益、共同协作这方面生活的。 So many heads so many wits.(三个臭皮匠,抵个诸葛亮。) Many hands make light work.(人手多,好办事。) Two eyes see more than one.(两只眼睛比一只眼睛看得清。) Drop by drop the oceans are filled ; stone by stonethe walls are built .(涓滴之水汇成海;一石一石筑成墙。) 英语属于印欧语系,印欧语系的原创型文化滥觞于古希腊文化。古希腊所处的地理位置正居于尼罗河、两河、小亚细亚和南欧之“要冲”,生活在希腊半岛和爱琴海诸岛的先民从海中取食,靠海吃海,久而久之,便形成了海洋型文化特点。后来的英伦三岛又为大海环抱,受之于古希腊的海洋文化因子得以传承、光大。英语谚语中有大量涉及海上航行、经风受雨、捕鱼捉蟹的内容,这正是英语民族,以及整个西语民族地理位置和海洋型文化的反映。 In a calm sea , every man is a pilot .(在平静的海上,人人都是领航员。) The good seaman is known in bad weather.(坏天气才能识出好水手。) A great ship asks deep water.(大船行深水。) In the deepest water is the best fishing.(最深的水里好捕鱼。) Hoist sail when the wind is fair.(趁着风好扬起帆。) He that would sail without danger , must never comeon the main sea.(谁在航行时不冒险,就永远不要来到大海上。) The great fish eat up the small .(大鱼吃小鱼。) The sea refuses no river.(江海不拒细流。) 这些谚语是濒海居民或水手的经验之谈,有些已超出了航海的经验范围,而具有更为深广的含义,如The sea refuses no river.就有“聚沙成塔,集腋成裘”的内涵。源于 民间口语的谚语,除反应人民群众生产劳动中的经验外,还表现了他们在社会斗争中的经验和道德、伦理、是非等观念。If you would not be cheated , ask the price at threeshops.(货比三家不吃亏。) There is a black sheep in every flock.(害群之马到处有。) Pride goes before a fall .(骄兵必败。) 这几条谚语都是人们实际生活斗争经验教训的总结。自然界的所有生物都有求生存的本能,作为有高级智慧的人更是如此。几千年来,丰衣足食、健康长寿一直是人们的追求与渴望。有关饮食、锻炼、健康、长寿方面的英语谚语非常丰富。 Eat at leisure , drink with meas ure.(饭菜尽情吃,饮酒须节制。) Gluttony kills more than the sword.(暴食杀人胜刀剑。) He that eats least eats more.(饮食有节可长寿。) Many dishes , many diseases.(猛吃猛喝,疾病必多。) 这几则谚语强调饮食节制的重要性。 Rest breeds rust .(人不活动,百病丛生。) Difficulties strengthen the mind , as labor does thebody.(劳动强身体,艰难励意志。) Dry feet , warm head , bring safe to bed.(脚干头暖,睡觉平安。) After lunch , rest ; after supper , walk.(午饭后要休息,晚饭后要散步。) 这几条谚语告诫人们要多运动, 锻炼,要学会自我保健,以强身健体。 Good health is above wealth.(健康金不换。) Happine lies , first of all , in health.(幸福首先在于健康。) Health is jewel .(健康是钻石。) In sickne health is known.(患病方知健康好。) 这几条谚语告诫人们要珍惜健康,方能过上高质量的生活,才能享受幸福快乐。有些英语谚语,强调人的精神、心理、环境对身体的重要性。 Laugh and grow fat .(笑口常开,心宽体胖。) Care killed the cat .(忧能伤人。) A light heart lives long.(心胸坦荡寿命长。) Cheerfulne is health ; its opposite , melancholy isdisease.(欢乐益健康,忧郁致病痛。) 欢笑、坦荡的心胸都有利于健康,相反,忧虑、抑郁则对身心有害。当人类的原始积累达到一定程度,随着物质的丰富,人口的增多,交流的频繁,进行物质交换,互通有无,已成为必然,不可或缺。最早的交换应是以物易物,后来慢慢发展到使用钱币。由于金钱的重要价值、作用及其稀缺特点,人们对金钱有着强烈的占有欲望,并产生了独特的感受和认识。在英语谚语中,关于金钱的很多,正是人们深刻的金钱观的反映。Money makes the mare go.(有钱能使鬼推磨。) Money governs the world.(金钱统治世界。) Money is the key that opens all doors.(钱是打开所有门的钥匙。) 这些谚语反映的是拜金主义的金钱观。 Gold will not buy everything.(金钱并非万能。) Money is the root of all evil .(金钱乃万恶之源。) Riches do not always bring happine.(金钱不总能带来幸福。) The love of money and the love of learning rarelymeet .(爱财不好学,好学不爱财。) 这几条谚语反映了对待金钱的不同的价值观,揭示了人们对客观事物的不同认识和理解。源自 民间口语的“俗谚”,以世态人情为材料,以经验知识为依据,是人民大众生活和生产的缩影,也是他们经验的积累和总结,揭示了他们对客观世界的认识和感悟,也表露了他们的心理诉求和祈望。

二、文化典籍流传于 民间口语中的谚语,伴随着文字的产生,开始出现在各种文学作品和 文化典籍中。英语谚语有一部分来自书面文献,主要出自希腊罗马神话、寓言故事、莎士比亚戏剧以及一些名家作品中。这些源自 文化典籍的“雅谚”,有些是在 民间口语说法的基础上提炼打磨而成,而有些则属独创,有着鲜明的文化色彩、语体特色和教育警策作用。莎士比亚不愧是语言大师,其戏剧成了产生谚语的沃土,这从一个侧面反映了莎士比亚的作品由于真实地反映了社会现实而为人民所喜爱,也反映了其在文学殿堂上的地位。莎士比亚生活的十六七世纪,正是资本主义兴起的时代,莎剧中的有些谚语正反映了新兴资产阶级的世界观,如物质至上,金钱至上等。The world is an oyster.(世界是一只牡蛎。)这条谚语首见于莎士比亚的喜剧《温莎的风流娘儿们》(The Merry Wives of Windsor) ,意思是说,如果你有很多钱,你可以想要什么就有什么,整个世界都由你摆布。 Lend your money and lose your friend.(借出你的钱,失掉你的朋友。) 这条谚语出自《哈姆雷特》(Hamlet) 1 幕3 场。出现在莎士比亚戏剧中的谚语,有一部分并非莎翁的独创,而是先前就已存在。这类谚语,莎翁或直接引用,或加以改造,以符合剧中的人物个性。Even a worm will turn.(甚至连一只虫子也会翻翻身。) 这则谚语原收录在英国诗人、剧作家约翰•海伍德的《谚语集》里,莎士比亚在《亨利六世》(Henry Ⅵ) 中予以引用: The smallest worm will turn being drodden on.(最小的虫子,被踩一脚,也要扭动一下。) All cats love fish but fear to wet their paws.(所有的猫都爱鱼,但又怕湿了猫爪。) 这是一句英国古谚,莎士比亚在《麦克白》(Macbeth) 1 幕7 场中直接引用。 You set an old man’s head on young shoulders.(你不要指望年轻的肩膀上长老年的头。) 莎剧中的这条谚语是由下面一条谚语改变而来:You must not expect old heads on young shoulders.Silver will have a sliver sound.(银子发出的是银子的声音。) 这则谚语源出于莎剧《罗密欧与朱丽叶》(Romeo and Juliet ) 4 幕5 场中的一句话: Silver hath a sweet sound.(银子发出甜蜜的声音。) 古希腊罗马神话是西方文学的源头之一。与古希腊罗马神话有关或涉及古希腊罗马神话中诸种和英雄的英语谚语有相当数量。 There were brave men before Agemenmnon.(阿加门农之前也有勇士。) 阿加门农(Agmenmnon) 是希腊神话中的迈锡尼王,他在特洛伊战争中担任希腊联军最高统帅,以勇猛善战著。Not even Hercules could contend against two.(即便赫尔克利斯,也是一不敌二。) 赫尔克利斯(Hercules) 是罗马神话中的英雄,是主神宙斯之子,力大无穷。个别英语谚语,其源头可追溯到古希腊诗人荷马、古罗马诗人奥维德或亚里士多德等古希腊罗马诗人、作家或哲学家的作品。如下面3 则:Choose the leer of two evils.(两害相权取其轻。) 荷马史诗中写有: The most preferable of evils ⋯(更可取的坏事⋯⋯) The gra is often greener on the other side of thefence.(篱笆那边的草总是更绿。) 奥维德曾写过这样的诗句:The harvest is alwaysmore fruitful in another man’s fields.(别人地里的庄稼总比自家的多产。) Don’t kill the goose that laid the golden eggs.(不要杀死下金蛋的鹅。) 这条谚语可上溯到古希腊寓言作家伊索的一个著名寓言故事《生金蛋的鹅》( The Goose with theGolden Eggs) 。有一个农民的鹅突然生出金蛋来,但农夫非常贪心,想一下子得到很多金子。伊索写道:Thinking to get at once all the gold the goose could give ,he kill ed it and opened it only to find —nothing.这条英语谚语的含义与汉语成语“杀鸡取卵”十分接近。 One may go wrong in many different ways , but rightin one.(歧路万千条,正路只一条。)这条谚语源于古希腊哲学家、科学家亚里士多德的著作。英语谚语来自其他英语诗歌、戏剧、小说、散文等的为数不少。 People who live in gla houses shouldn’t throwstones.(住玻璃房子的人不该扔石头。) 这则谚语可上溯到英国诗人乔叟的《特洛伊罗斯与克瑞西达》(Troilus and Criseyde) 。Make hay while the sun shines.(趁着晴天晒干草。) 这句谚语来自英国诗人亚历山大•巴克莱的讽刺作品《愚人船》(The Ship of Fools) 。Variety is the spice of life.(变化多姿是生活的调味品。)这则谚语可追溯到英国诗人威廉•柯珀的长诗《任务》(The Task) 。The child is father of the man.(三岁看到老。)英国诗人威廉•华兹华斯在《我的雀跃》(MyHeart Leaps Up) 一诗中曾使用过这句谚语。这首诗的首句是:My heart leaps up when I behold/ A rainbowin the sky.(每见到彩虹横贯长空,我心涌动不已。)诗中谈到这是诗人从小就有的感受。每个人都由童年而及成年,而成年人性格中美好的一切都来自纯洁的童心。 Never say die.(永远不要说“死定了”。)出自英国小说家的《匹克威克外传》( PickwickPapers) ,表达了一种永不言败的豪情。He that hath wife and children hath given hostage tofortune.(有妻室子女之人已将自己押给了命运。)出自英国哲学家培根的散文《论婚姻与独身》。另有个别英语谚语,源起于某个历史事件,有一定的文化历史背景。如:Nero fiddled while Rome burned.(罗马失火,尼禄弹琴作乐。) 这条谚语就与一段罗马历史有关。尼禄是罗马皇帝,恺撒家族的最后一个统治者,自公元59 年后施暴政。在公元64 年,尼禄命人火烧罗马城,以便能看看“特洛伊城陷入火海会是什么样子”,并以大火为背景,朗诵自己的诗篇,还拿着竖琴为自己伴奏。这个谚语比喻一个人在危难中不负责任、不恤民情的行为。源自 文化典籍的“雅谚”,很好地反映了西方社会普遍的社会心理和价值取向,如崇尚独立与个性,崇尚理性,推崇平等观念以及私有财产神圣不可侵犯等。 文化典籍类谚语在用词上较“俗谚”更为正式,带有很浓的书卷气,这也正符合文人著作的语言、文体特点。

三、宗教文献西方英语国家主要信仰基督教。基督教在其悠久的发展过程中已经超出了狭隘的宗教意义,形成了一种对西方人的生活方式、价值观念和伦理原则产生巨大影响的文化现象。基督教教典《圣经》,是西方文化的另一个源头,对英语的影响堪比莎士比亚的著作,对英语谚语的丰富和发展起了很大作用。英语中有许多谚语就是源自圣经故事或是反映宗教思想的,这也是宗教思想深入人心,影响并操纵着人们精神世界的体现。基督教的共同人性和博爱思想也都反映在英语谚语中。《圣经•旧约全书》中有一章《箴言篇》(The bookof proverbs) ,记录的是智者格言,十分丰富,都是规劝警示性的,在流传过程中成为精美的谚语。 A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband.(贞洁的妇女是她丈夫的冠冕。) A good name is better than riches.(美名胜过财富。) 英语谚语还来自《圣经》中的其他篇章,如《约伯记》、《传道书》等。All rivers run into the sea.(条条河流归大海。) (《传道书》) The love of money is the root of all evil .(贪财是万恶之源。) (《提摩太前书》) The price of wisdom is above rubies.(智慧的价值高于珠宝。) (《约伯记》) Love begets love.(爱产生爱。) 有些源自《圣经》的谚语,还保留着一些词的古代形式,如thou , thy , doeth , doest 等。 When thou doest alms , let not thy left hand knowwhat the right hand doeth.当你施舍的时候,不要让左手知道右手所做的。(《马太福音》)《圣经》最早是用希伯来语写的,后来译成多种语言。英语《圣经》有多个版本,相同的语义内涵有时会有不同的译文变体。比如: Stolen waters aresweet .(偷来的水是甜的。) 就有几种变体[2 ] :Stolen sweets are always sweeter.(偷来的糖总是格外甜。) Stolen pleasures are sweet .(偷欢是甜蜜的。) Stolen fruit is sweeter.(偷来的水果分外甜。) 某些英语谚语源出《圣经》,但用词已不同于原文,语言形式上有所改变,或利用《圣经》语句的创意,产生出新的谚语。 As you row , so shall you reap.(种瓜得瓜,种豆得豆。) 这条谚语源自《圣经•加拉太书》中的Whatsoevera man soweth , that shall he also reap.原句中的大词、古词whatsoever 和soweth 已不再出现。《圣经•以西德书》中有一句是这样说的: Thuaith the Lord God :An evil , an only evil , behold , iscome.主耶和华如此说:有一灾祸,独有一灾祸,看哪,它临近了。有几条英语谚语就是由这个句子演化而来。 Misfortunes never come single.(祸不单行。) One misfortune rides upon another’s back.(一个灾祸骑在另一灾祸的背上。) Hardships never come alone.(苦难从不单独来。)英语中有些谚语,与圣经故事有关。圣经中的一些含有浓厚宗教色彩的词常出现在英谚中,如cro(十字架) ,forbidden fruit ( 禁果) , God ( 上帝) ,Devil (魔鬼) 等。 Forbidden fruit is sweet .(禁果是甜的。) Every man must carry his cro.(每个人必须背他自己的十字架。) Evil and good are God’s right hand and left .(善与恶是上帝的左右手。) The Devil take the hindmost .(落后者遭殃。) The cro on the breast , and the devil in the heart .(十字胸前挂,恶念心中藏。) Hell is wherever heaven is not .(不是天堂的地方,即是地狱。) 一种民族语言所吸收的来自 宗教文献的词语与他们所信仰的宗教有关,众多英语谚语源自《圣经》,就很好地说明了这一点。除了 民间口语、文化典籍和 宗教文献这3 个主要来源外,英语谚语还有些源自外来语。由于地理位置和历史的缘故,英语在其发展过程中不断受到外来语的影响和冲击,使得英语中吸收了大量来自外国文化的词语,英语谚语也不例外。有相当一部分英语谚语来自拉丁语、法语、德语、西班牙语、汉语等。这部分谚语有些还保留着外文的原形,有些则已译成英语。如cherchez la femme (找出祸水) 是一句法文谚语,但却以法文原文形式保留在英文中,译成英语为find the woman ,表示不论发生什么麻烦,其背后总有女

人牵涉其中。其他如: Familiar paths and old friends are the best .(熟路易走,老友易处。) (来自德语) Those who know don’t speak ; those who speak don’t know.(知者不言,言者不知。) (源自老子的《道德经》) Give a helping hand to a man in trouble.(对危难者应授之以手。) (来自拉丁语) 这些外来的谚语已为英语国家人民所接受,成为其文化宝库中不可分割的一部分。弗兰西斯•培根曾经说过:“一个国家的智慧、风趣和精神均体现在它的谚语之中。”在几千年的形成流变过程中,英语谚语从不同源头汇聚而来,并得到不断的丰富和充实,终成为璀璨的颗颗宝石。这些谚语以其令人们熟知的形象和比喻体现了人们世代积累的经验和形成的价值观,它们作为社会共享的口头文学的袖珍版本,被成百上千次地引用,成为说服他人的论据,并用以指导日常生活。各个民族的文化有其各自的特点和赖以产生的历史背景,所以各自的谚语都带有其自身的文化烙印,反映了不同的思想观念和价值取向。因此,学习英语谚语并了解其产生的源头,有助于正确理解其内在含义,并且有利于了解英语民族,以致整个西语民族的思想方式、风俗习惯和感情品德,这为了解和 研究西方文化打开了一扇窗口,对促进跨文化交际和中西文化的沟通和借鉴都是大有裨益的。

第16篇:英语谚语

这是从网上搜集的一些关于狗的一些谚语和一些其他常见谚语,很有意思:)

Rain Cats and Dogs

Rain Cats and Dogs(倾盆大雨)这一短语的出处也不得而知。有记载的用法首次出现在朱纳森·斯威夫特所著的《礼貌会话》一书中,该书大约写于1708年,三十年后才出版。斯威夫特的著作是讽刺一些陈词滥调的,因此,上述短语在斯威夫特写书相当长一段时间就已经在用了。

罗森指出,该短语有更早的一种变体,“Rain Dogs and Pole cats”,(“下狗和鸡貂”),来自理查德·伯罗米的《1652年城市妙语》。关于这一起源的意见包括:

·古体法语Catdoupe意为瀑布或大瀑布。

·雷电大作与猫狗打架的声音相似。

·北方神话中,猫对天气会产生影响,此外,暴风雨之神欧丁(Odin)是由狗和狼侍俸的。

伯罗米所引用的上面这些说法是不可能的,因为古代英语的变体中“Pole cat”与“Cat”是相对立的,说它是从Cat doupe 传下来也不可能。同样,由于Polecats(鸡貂)也并不是Cats(猫),而是类似黄鼠狼或臭鼬之类的动物。至于猫科动物具体神秘特征的涵义,同样也是不可能的。

还有另一种说法是在古老的伦敦,一场倾盆大雨后常常是汪洋一汽,淹死许多迷路的狗和猫,因此,雨停,水退后,满街死狗死猫,似乎天上落下了众多的狗和猫似的。这种说法听起了像是花言巧语,但早期这一词组用到Polecats,又使上述说法不太可能。

因此,关于这一短语的奥秘仍然没有什么满意的解释。

一说源自古代斯堪的那维亚神话:雨中巫婆骑着猫通过,而雨神乘的是一条狗。还有一个说法:古代街道排水设施太差,一下大雨,许多猫和狗都被淹死,雨水流走后,街上满是猫和狗的尸体。第三个说法是该成语来自希腊文的catadupe,意为“瀑布”,下瓢泼大雨时犹如瀑布,后来慢慢演变成了rain cats and dogs dog

1.What the f**k is going on?(到底他妈的怎么回事?)

通常此话出于黑人之口,且口气最宜为疑惑,不解,愤怒等等。

若是白人则多数时候会说-What the hell is going on?

意义相同而适用于更多场合。 说此话之人身份通常为上级,且相处较久。 2.You son of pregnant dog! (你个狗娘养的!)

3.All rise! (全体起立!)

国产英语老师最误人子弟的就是口语太差,爱说想当然口语。 从小学到高中英语课代表一直喊的是-Stand up! 当然没什么不可以,但为什么不说标准的话呢?就象我们朗读中文时说普通话一样!

这句话一旦学会,包你用的乐不思蜀。 用途太广泛啦!

此句往往从某个孤胆英雄的嘴中冒出,发音要轻,然口气要重! 此英雄往往正面临生死抉择,例如是先剪蓝线还是先剪红线等。 说时要有壮士一去不复返的气势! 此句适合用在被MM拒绝时,向MM的背影说出! 万万不可忘记要配合以右手中指的朝天一刺!

6.It’s none of your busine!(关你屁事!)

此句已接近经典! 当你在网上浏览不健康网站遭到网吧老板的劝阻时, 它往往能建下奇功!

7.Come on!

此句因拥有太多含义,所以注释欠奉。 但它确实非常neceary! 所有的鬼佬一天不说个十七八遍就会浑身发痒。 它的经典之处你就好好体会吧!

8. Ditto! (俺也是!)

本不是常用语,不过看过“幽灵”一片的人都染上了男主角的坏习惯。 从来不说I love you!

总是“俺也是,俺也是!”的把MM们气得口吐白沫! 实际上你也可以说“Me too!”或“Me also!”,不过总是不够文艺腔! 差了那么一点点味道和情调. 9.How can I forget such a beautiful girl/sexy boy?

此句在重逢某个你早已心仪的MM或GG是不妨拿来用用! 当对方还沉浸在陶醉中时,你可以利用这段时间好好想想对方的名字!

10.I had no choice!(俺也是被逼无奈啊!)

最常用此话的要数那些被男主角逼到悬崖边上的家伙们! 俺真的不是有意出卖你老人家的!饶俺一命吧!
