VOA慢速英语2011.05.06


       
       



Cats are the most popular pets among Americans. So it is not surprising that there are many expressions about cats. Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries. If someone looks very proud or satisfied with himself, we say he looks like the cat that ate the canary.
● 中文形容一个人因为达到某种心愿而有点臭美、心满意足的样子,可以用“偷腥的猫”这个表达。英语也有类似的说法,即“like the cat that ate the canary”。这个短语形象描绘了猫打开鸟笼子,掏出里面的金丝雀吃了之后满足的样子。这个短语调侃意味较浓,较常运用于口语之中。
_______________________________________________________________________For example, a child might offer something sweet to her little brother and then take it away when he reaches for it.
● 例如:I know what you are up to. Don’t play cat and mouse with me!(我知道你会这么做的,别再捉弄我了!)
A cat will often catch a small animal and present it to its owner. The saying that looks like something the cat dragged in describes something in bad condition.
● 猫通常会叼些破烂或抓些小动物回来,因此that looks like something the cat dragged in 是指处于糟糕状况的事物。当有人说你“look like something the cat dragged in”,即是指你外表凌乱,肮脏不堪。如:You can’t possibly go to school like that—you look like something the cat dragged in!(你不能这个样子去上学——你看你全身邋里邋遢的。)
