和猴子有关的英语成语

和猴子有关的10个英语成语1.Cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey这个一个特别好玩的英文成语，看起来是在说猴子，不过其实和猴子也没啥关系。

你第一眼看到“balls”的时候，是不是会以为这句成语有点“脏”？啥叫“冷到把猴子的…球‟给冻出来”呢？这句成语的历史有点久远，可追溯到18世纪，当时正是大英帝国的战舰和商船雄霸海洋的时代。

几百年前，无论军舰还是商船都会配备火炮，那时候火炮的炮弹都是一个个铁球。

如何在颠簸的船上固定住圆圆的炮弹呢？这是船员要解决的一个问题。

摆放炮弹最好的办法是把炮弹一层层累起来，最后累成一个金字塔形状。

问题来了，如何固定最下层的炮弹呢？水手的解决方法是在把最下层的炮弹（通常是16枚）放到一个槽里，最下一层的炮弹被固定住，上面的炮弹也就稳固了。

开始，那个槽子是用生铁打造。

不过，由于海上太潮湿，铁槽没过多久就和最下层的炮弹锈在一起。

为了解决生锈问题，船员用黄铜做槽子，黄铜和铁永远不会锈在一起，问题看似最后被完美解决。

那个放炮弹的黄铜槽子被船员称为“brass monkey”。

（不要问我为啥这么叫，我也不知道。

）不过，水手很快就发现了一个新问题：黄铜热胀冷缩率比铁要大得多，当天气极冷，铜槽变小，炮弹就被挤了出来。

这就是“the balls off a brass monkey”的出处。

在寒冷的中国东北，我们形容天冷，我们会说“冷得我大鼻涕长淌”。

在英美，形容天气寒冷，不少人会说“cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey”。

2. Monkey house动物园里关猴子的地方叫“monkey house” 。

后来，精神病院（psychiatric hospitals）或监狱也被称为“monkey house”。

声明下，把精神病院叫做“monkey house”是极不礼貌的，知道就可以了，尽量不要说出来。
