Corrections

1. sore vs. sour

4. hobby vs. habit

sore [ sor ] adj.

sour [ sa8r ] adj.

(身體)痠痛的;疼痛的

(味道)酸的

• After he exercised,

• Gina doesn’t like

Kevin felt very sore.

凱文運動後身體痠痛。

lemons because they’re too sour.

吉娜不喜歡檸檬,因為 檸檬太酸了。

原文的 They enjoy their new habit. 文法雖無誤,但因 habit [ `h1b6t ] 是指「(日常生活的)習慣」,如 take a walk after dinner「晚餐後去散步」、go to bed before twelve「十二 點前上床睡覺」等, 而文中「喜歡騎自行車」比較像是一種「嗜 好」,所以應把 habit 改成 hobby [ `h3b6 ] 為佳。

is my favorite hobby.() { Singing Singing is my favorite habit.() 唱歌是我最愛的嗜好。

is a really bad habit.() { Smoking Smoking is a really bad hobby.() 抽菸是很不好的習慣。

2. the owner of the store 泛指商家或公司行號的「所有人;店主」應用 owner 表示, boss 是指負責掌管、監督下屬工作的「老闆;上司」,著重在 「職位的層級關係」,故在此不適用。 • Who is the owner of this coffee shop? 誰是這間咖啡店的老闆? • If you want a day off, you have to ask your boss. 若要請假,就必須請示上司。

3. ride their bicycles 「騎自行車」的固定說法為 ride a/(one’s) bicycle,因此文 中動詞要改成 ride 才正確,另外騎機車 (scooter)、騎摩托車 (motorcycle) 的動詞也用 ride。drive (drive-drove-driven) 適 用於「駕駛」汽車 (car)、公車 (bus)、卡車 (truck) 等交通工具。 • Liz doesn’t know how to ride a scooter. 麗茲不會騎機車。 • Ken always drives very slowly. 肯開車總是開很慢。

5. feel much better 當我們說「覺得不錯」是 feel good,「覺得比較好」是 feel better,但若想加強程度,表示「覺得很不錯」、「覺得好很多」 該怎麼說呢?

feel very good {「覺得很不錯」→ 「覺得好很多」→ feel much better 需注意 very 和 much 都可修飾形容詞,但 very 之後務必接 「形容詞原級」,much 之後務必接「形容詞比較級」。 • Your job sounds very easy. very + adj.

你的工作聽起來很容易。 • Your job sounds much easier than mine. much + adj.-er

你的工作聽起來比我的簡單多了。

Paintball is quite different from sports like baseball or soccer. In paintball, players have guns 1 that shoot balls of paint. If you’re shot, you’re “dead.”2 The first team3 to “kill” everyone on the other team wins. Sometimes, people play outside. They wear green clothing to blend in with* the trees. Other people play inside. The rules change from place to place. Paintballs usually fly at more than 300 kilometers4 per hour. If one hits you, you’ll probably get a bruise.* Paintball is a little scary, but it’s also lots of fun!

那個池塘以前比較大。

D over [ `ov0 ] prep. 超過 • Tim paid over NT$5,000 for that coat. 提姆花五千多元買那件外套。 根據語意,欲表達「近來全球人口『超過』七十億」,因此可 能的答案為 (A) 和 (D),但因此句缺少動詞,故答案選 (A)。

2. 正確答案為:(C)

4. 正確答案為:(C) A size [ sa6z ] 是「尺寸」,用來形容物件的大小,非人口 的多少,所以 the same size of people 的說法並無意 義。

B type [ ta6p ] 是「種類」,the same type of people「相 同的人口種類」,但全篇重點都在討論全球人口數,與人 口的種類無關。

此題的四個選項皆為時間介系詞,但用法不同,說明如下:

A on + 特定的日期、節日、週末 如 on July 21、on Christmas、on the weekend

D total [ `toty ] 是「總額」,the same total of people 「相同的人口總額」,語意上似乎通順,但 total 多用來形

B at + 幾點幾分 如 at seven o’clock、at six fifteen(at night 是固定用法) C by 是指「在……之前」,其後不限定加任何時間名詞 如 by tomorrow morning、by next week、 by ten o’clock D during + 一段時間 如 during my life、during the summer、 during this month 句意為「科學家相信在二一〇〇年『之前』,地球上就會有超 過百億人口」,故正確答案為 (C)。

3. 正確答案為:(B) 「舉例」的說法有:  介系詞 like + N./V-ing • I love to eat sweet things, like pudding and

chocolate cake. 我超愛吃甜食,像是布丁和巧克力蛋糕。  介系詞片語 such as + N. • Doug bought lots of things, such as books and

DVDs.

容「金錢」的總數。 因此 (C) 為最適當的答案。

5. 正確答案為:(D) A police [ p4`lis ] n. 警方(the police 是固定用法) • The police in that city are quite friendly. 那個城市的警察很友善。

B author [ `7q0 ] n. 作家 • The author of that novel was my classmate. 那本小說的作者以前是我的同學。

C lawyer [ `l7j0 ] n. 律師 • The lawyers explained the law to Justin. 律師們向賈斯汀解釋那條法規。

D government [ `g9v0nm4nt ] n. 政府 • Ron thinks governments should give free education. 榮恩認為政府應該提供免費教育。 通篇的主旨為「全球」人口過剩的危機,因此依常理判斷, 光靠警方、作家和律師的努力是無法解決的,所以答案選 (D) 「各國政府」為佳。

When people think of France, Paris usually comes to mind first. After all, Paris has some of the best food, scenery,1 and museums in the world.

France has quite a few towns and villages3 that you can visit. These little places are quite different from the big cities. One of these places is called Bayeux. Bayeux is a town near the northern coast 4 of France. It combines* history, culture, 5 and a beautiful environment. Bayeux is not the most famous part of France, but if you go there, you’ll fall in love with its small shops, narrow6 streets, and friendly people.

Bayeux is very important for another reason:6 it’s quite close to the D-day* beaches of World War II. A trip to Bayeux will make your holiday in France much more fun.

在團體中的表現「引人注目」,英文要怎麼說?

小老師說

Linda stole the show from the other dancers. 琳達的表現比其他舞者更出色。

藍波

steal the show 字面意思為「偷走了表演」,有些配角的演技太 精湛,觀眾深受吸引,反倒讓主角相形失色,這就是 steal the show 的由來。另一相似的慣用語為 steal the spotlight,帶有 「搶鋒頭」的意味,其中 spotlight [ `sp3t%la6t ] 是名詞「聚光燈」 之意。 • During the school show, Timmy stole the spotlight

from his classmates. 提米在學校公演時搶盡同學的鋒頭。

問題 大聲公

「放馬過來」的英文要怎麼說?

小老師說

I’m not afraid of you. Bring it on. 我才不怕你,放馬過來。

小花

bring it on 在口語有挑釁、下戰書的意味,類似的用法為 Show me what you got.。 • A: I can run faster than you. 我可以跑得比你快。

B: Really? Show me what you got. 真的嗎?讓我看看你有多大能耐。

Riddles of the Bible: Search for Noah Ark

聖經之謎——挪亞方舟

Everyone knows the story of Noah’s Ark.* According to* the Bible, it rained for 40 days and 40 nights. Almost everyone died in a horrible* flood. 1 Noah built a giant boat and put two of every animal on it. Only Noah and his animals survived the disaster.2 That was how he saved the world. But is this a true story? For hundreds of years, people have been trying to answer that question. Scientists and others have many questions about the ark story. Was there actually3 a flood that killed millions

of people? Was it possible to build such a big, strong ark? Could an ancient boat survive a terrible, violent4 flood? If there is really an ark, where is it? Here is one interesting point: many ancient cultures have flood stories. Therefore, some people think that there probably was a terrible flood in ancient times. Even today, people continue to search for Noah’s Ark. Some people believe that the ark is somewhere in the mountains of the Middle East.* There are often rumors5 about the ark’s location, but the ark has never been found. The story of Noah’s Ark will probably be a mystery6 forever.

riddle [ `r6dy ] n. 謎 Noah’s Ark [ `no4z ] [ 3rk ] 挪亞方舟 according to [ 4`k7rd6; ] [ tu ] 根據 horrible [ `h7r4by ] adj. 可怕的 Middle East [ `m6dy ] [ ist ] 中東 小編時間

大家都知道挪亞方舟的故事,根據聖經記載,大雨 連續下了四十晝夜,幾乎所有人都在恐怖的洪水中喪生。 挪亞造了一艘巨大的船,並把每種動物各帶兩隻安置於 船上,只有挪亞和那群動物在災難中存活,那就是挪亞 拯救世界的故事。然而這是真實故事嗎?幾百年來人們 試圖解答這個問題。 科學家和其他人對方舟的故事有諸多疑問:當時是 否真有洪水淹死上百萬人?有可能建造如此巨大、堅固 的方舟嗎?一艘古代的船真能通過可怕、凶猛洪水的考 驗?如果真有方舟,那它現在又在哪裡?不過有個有趣 的論點是這麼說的:許多遠古的文化都有關於洪水的故 事,因此有些人認為在古代或許真有過一場大洪水。 即使到今天,人們仍繼續尋找挪亞方舟的下落,有 人相信方舟就在中東山區某處,不時也有關於方舟所在 位置的謠言出現,但方舟始終未被尋獲,挪亞方舟的故 事或許將永遠是個謎。

1 2 3

雖有地質證據顯示大峽谷的岩石是被水侵蝕而成,但並不 代表地球曾經一度被大洪水淹沒。 聖經記載方舟在大洪水後停泊在亞拉臘山上。 故事訴說因挪亞方舟,動物才得以存活。

挪亞方舟的故事 挪亞方舟的故事記載於《創世紀》第六章到第九章, 挪亞在世時世界上充滿罪惡 (sin) 和不法的行為,上帝耶 和華很後悔 (regret) 創造人類,決定用洪水把人類消滅, 但他發現挪亞是好人,於是耶和華指示挪亞建造方舟,帶 著家人和其他動物躲進方舟避難,之後便開始下起大雨, 陸地上的生物都被大洪水淹死,只有挪亞一家人和方舟上 的動物存活下來。 挪 亞 想 知 道 洪 水 是 否 退 去, 於 是 他 放 出 一 隻 鴿 子 (dove),不過鴿子沒找到可棲身之處就折返,到了第二次 他派鴿子出去,鴿子嘴裡叼著橄欖枝回來,挪亞第三次放 鴿子,牠就再也沒有飛回來了,於是挪亞知道該是離開方 舟的時候。 離開方舟後,挪亞把祭品獻給上帝,於是耶和華在天 空造出一道彩虹 (rainbow),以此保證再也不會用洪水毀 滅世界。之後橄欖枝成為「和平」的代名詞,鴿子則被稱 為「和平的使者」,今日聯合國的國徽是一對橄欖枝拖著 地球的圖案,正象徵著世界和平 (world peace)。 圖片及資料來源:國家地理頻道、Wikipedia

Bayeux: Another Side of France 法國小鎮之旅:貝葉 p. 48 說起法國,通常人們最先想到巴黎,畢竟巴黎有世界首屈 一指的美食、景色和博物館,幾乎去法國的人都會到首都一遊。 然而遠離大都會、體驗小鎮生活也不錯,法國境內有許多 城鎮和村莊等著你去探訪,這些小地方和大城市有天壤之別, 其中貝葉就是一例。 貝葉是靠近法國北部沿岸的小鎮,結合了歷史、文化和優 美的環境於一身。貝葉雖非法國最具盛名的地方,但若你到那 裡,一定會愛上小巧玲瓏的店家、狹小的街道和友善的居民。

p. 51 這裡有個 Stomp 表演的實例:所有的演出者手拿掃把,先 拖著掃把在地面滑動,然後用掃把敲打地面,聽起來就像是集 體打鼓一般。接下來,他們可能會用垃圾桶蓋來表演。

Stomp 為什麼這麼做呢?表演者希望觀眾能在全新的地方 感受到音樂和藝術,人生有時有點無趣,如果以不同的角度看 世界,你可能就會開始用新的角度來思考事情,然後就會開始 獲得更多樂趣,進而想像新的事物。 藝術不只有在博物館才看得到,音樂也不是只有在音樂廳 才聽得到,這些事物常在你我身邊,我們只需花點心思去尋找。

p. 49 無疑地,貝葉最有名的代表就是貝葉掛毯,這是用布做成 的一幅畫,聽起來很無趣嗎?貝葉掛毯已有將近千年的歷史, 且長達約七十公尺!掛毯上的圖案訴說著一場古老的戰役。 貝葉大教堂也很美麗,這座偌大的教堂位於山丘上,所以 在鎮上任何角落都看得見它,該教堂也有千年的歷史。還有另 一個原因讓貝葉成為重要的觀光勝地:它相當靠近二次世界大 戰諾曼地戰役盟軍登陸的海灘。 一趟貝葉之旅會替你的法國假期更添趣味,倘若你去貝葉, 會看到法國的不同面向,最後可能還會覺得這裡比巴黎還棒 呢!

Sleepboxes: A New Kind of Hotel 來箱型睡艙住一晚 p. 52 機場不是個舒適的地方,如果想睡覺,就必須坐在椅子上 或躺在長椅上睡。現在,有個機場找到解決此問題的方法:稱 作「箱型睡艙」的小房間。 在莫斯科國際機場,你可以租借箱型睡艙,裡頭有床、電 視和放行李的地方。箱型睡艙具備隔音功能,所以即使你身處 人潮擁擠的區域也能輕易入睡;當其他人路過或在睡艙附近講 話,你也不會聽到。 雖然目前只有莫斯科有箱型睡艙,不過發明者想把睡艙販 售到世界各地的機場。他們也認為睡艙適用於火車站、 辦公 室,甚至是市區的人行道上。

p. 50 看到掃把,可能會想到打掃;看到籃球,或許會想到運動。 對大部分的人來說,這些都是再普通不過的東西,不過,有些人 卻利用這些日常物品來做點不一樣的事情,那就是創作音樂。

Stomp 是一種音樂表演,表演者彈奏音樂,但不是用吉他 或鋼琴,而是用水管、椅子和瓶瓶罐罐之類的東西,有時甚至 還用蘋果呢!

Stomp 於一九九一年在英國開始表演,如今在歐洲、美國 和許多其他地方都有演出。Stomp 是全球最成功的音樂表演之 一,但牟利不是唯一目的。
