四十个英语习语典故来源1. a wolf in sheep’s clothing此语源自<<伊索寓言>>,直译为“披着羊皮的狼”,也可表示这些意义“伪装成朋友的敌人;貌善心毒的人,伪君子”等. 该成语涉及这样一则故事:一只狼披着羊皮混到羊群里去了,欺骗了羊羔,并把羊羔吃了.又见<<新约.马太福音>>第七章有如此一说: “你们要防备假先知.他们到你们这里来,外面披着羊皮, 里面却是残暴的狼.”例句:Mrs Martin trusted the lawyer until she realized that he was a wolf in sheep’s clothing.马丁太太原来很信任那个律师,后来才认清他是个披着羊皮的狼。

Mr Black was fooled by the salesman’s manner until he showed that he was really a wolf in sheep’s clothing,by selling Mr Black a car that was falling apart.布莱克先生被推销员愚弄了,后来才发现原来推销员貌善心毒的人。

他卖给布莱克先生的是一辆要垮的小汽车。

2. a dog in the manger此成语源自<<伊索寓言>>,含贬义.该成语涉及这则故事:一只狗躺在马槽里,马或牛来吃食时,它却不让,但狗自己又不能吃.LDC认为该成语指“自己不能享用又不让别人享用的人”. 我们一般选择此译法: “占着茅坑不拉屎(的人)。

例句:I’d like to ask you to consider it again and not to be a dog in the manger .我劝你还是再考虑考虑,不要干那既损人又不利己的事。

3. to carry coals to Newcastle此语与法国谚语“运水入河”相当,可译为“多此一举”.纽卡斯尔(Newcastle)是英国的产煤基地.例句:It would be like carrying coals to Newcastle if another bank opened in this street ; there are three here now .如果再在这条街上开一家银行,那可真是多此一举,因为这条街目前已经有三家银行了。

新版牛津九年级上册U1Wise men in history

U1 Wise men in history要点一,学习Reading并翻译文章Archimedes and the golden crownOne day in ancient Greece, King Hiero asked a crown maker to make him a golden crown. At first, he was very happy with it.古希腊的一天,海尔罗国王请一位制作皇冠的人给他制作一顶金皇冠。

起初,他对皇冠感到非常高兴。

“I t’s a nice crown, isn’t it?” he asked his men. Later, however, he began to dou bt that it was a real golden crown. “Is it made completely of gold?” he wondered. He sent it to Archimedes and asked him to find out the truth.“这是一个很漂亮的皇冠,不是吗?”他问仆人。

然而后来他开始怀疑皇冠是否是一顶真的金皇冠。

“这真是纯金的吗?”他纳闷着。

他把皇冠送到了阿基米德那里,叫他搞清楚真相。

“This problem seems difficult to solve. What should I do?” thought Archimedes.“这个问题似乎很难解决。

我该怎么办?”阿基米德想。

Archimedes was still thinking about this problem as he filled his bath with water. When he got into the bath, some water ran over.当阿基米德往浴池里倒水的时候他仍然思考着这个难题。

当他进入浴池时,一些水溢了出来。

英语典故加习语大全

英语典故加习语大全

1. [典故+习语]--读典故学英语,够有趣--开张大吉篇PIE IN THE SKY中国人常说“天上不会掉馅饼”,美国也有类似的说法--pie in the sky,形容不可能实现的事情。

下次如果有人跟你说“如果我有500万的话......”,你就可以说,“forget it, it's a pie in the sky”。

此短语直译为『天国(上)的馅饼』,源自美国流行作曲家、世界产业工人联盟的组织者Joe Hill 于1911年所作的一首着名歌曲《传教士与奴隶》。

他在歌中写道:You will eat, bye and bye,In the glorious land above the sky!Work and pray, live on hay,You'll get PIE IN THE SKY when you die!这几句歌词是Joe Hill 从美国救世军军歌中引用过来的,意在讽刺这个宗教组织,揭露其欺骗性和虚伪性,唤醒广大被压迫的奴隶。

后来人们就用pie in the sky 比喻『渺茫的希望』和『不能保证实现的允诺』等意思。

好,这次大家就翻译一下上面那两句歌词吧-------------------------------------------------------------------------------不久你将在天上的圣地就餐。

Showing Off One's Proficiency with the Axe Before Lu Ban
the Master Carpenter
Lu Ban was supposed to be a consummate carpenter in ancient times. It is said that he once carved a wooden phoenix that was so lifelike that it actually flew in the sky for three days. Thus it was considered the height of folly to show off one's skill with an axe in front of Lu Ban.
This idiom excoriates those who show off their slight accomplishments in front of experts.
班门弄斧
古代有一个建筑和雕刻技术非常高超的人,名叫鲁班,木匠行里尊称他为祖师。

传说他曾用木头制作了一只五彩斑斓的凤凰,能够在空中飞翔三天不掉下来。

在鲁班门前摆弄斧子,当然显得有些自不量力了。

“班门弄斧”这个成语,用来比喻在行家面前显示本领。

英语典故——精选推荐

英语典故——精选推荐

英语典故1)Mind your P's and Q's: 谨慎你知道Mind your P's and Q's的来历吗?它的意思是be careful, behave yourself,也就是"⼩⼼、谨慎"。

从17世纪晚期开始,Mind your P's and Q's被⼴泛使⽤,关于它的故事有很多。

其中⼀种说法和酒店有关。

当时,在英国的⼀些酒吧⾥有两种盛酒器具:品脱和夸脱。

品脱⼤,夸脱⼩;为了在客⼈们结账的时候不出差错,酒店侍者必须在酒店的⼩⿊板上记下客⼈们⽤的到底是哪种容器,P代表pints,Q代表qauts。

因此,酒店⽼板也不断的提醒他们:注意你们的品脱和夸脱。

另⼀种说法从课堂上来。

⼩学⽣在拼写p和q时总是容易将它们混淆。

P反着写就成了q,⽽q反过来写⼜变成了p。

这两个字母不但顺序相邻,⽽且拼写相似,难怪⽼师要说Mind your P's and Q's。

再来听听下⾯这个故事。

这种说法中P指的是pea cloth,⼀种粗呢布料;Q代表queue,指的是"(朝⾂或⽔⼿们的)辫⼦"。

年轻的贵族们总被提醒不要将假发上的粉末弄到粗呢夹克上;另⼀种解释是:⽔⼿们刚上船时,有⼀个惯例,就是将他们的辫⼦放在焦油⾥蘸⼀蘸,不过要⼩⼼把油弄到粗呢夹克上。

It originated in British pubs as an abbreviation for "mind your pints and quarts." Supposedly this warned the barkeep to serve full measure, mark the customer's tab accurately, etc.It meant "mind your pea (jacket) and queue." Queues (pigtails) were often powdered, and wifeypoo was telling hubby to keep the cruddy kid stuff off his collar. An even dumber variation of this involves "pieds," French for "feet," and says minding your p's and q's means combing your hair and polishing your shoes, or something like that.P and q stands for "prime quality." According to the Oxford English Dictionary, to be P and Q was a regional expression meaning top quality.听完了这些故事,你也明⽩mind your P's and Q's的意思了吧?造个句⼦:She told her son to mind his P's and Q's at the banquet。
