ABC答客問 「恍神」英文怎麼說？
ABC 答客問
I tried to speak to Bob, but he was in a trance. 我想和鮑伯說話，但他那時候有點恍神。
trance [ tr1ns ] 是名詞「出神；發呆」之意，in a trance 指的就是「處 在恍惚狀態」。
• Tony has been in a trance all day, so I think he is in love. 東尼一整天都心不在焉，所以我想他戀愛了。
「得寸進尺」英文怎麼說？
A: Why shouldn’t I agree to Joe’s idea? 我為什麼不該贊同喬的想法？
B: Because if you give Joe an inch, he’ll take a mile. 因為他會得寸進尺。
Give him an inch and he’ll take a mile. 字面意思是「給他一英寸， 他就會拿走一英里」，意同中文所說的「得寸進尺」。其他類似說法還包 括：take advantage [ 4d`v1nt6d. ] of (sb)「佔（某人）便宜」、walk all over (sb)「爬到（某人）頭上」等。 • A: Why don’t you want to be a teacher? 你為何不想當老師？
B: I’m afraid that the students will walk all over me. 我怕學生會爬到我頭上。
「放馬後炮」英文怎麼說？
A: I know that you made a bad decision. 我就知道你做了一個不好的決定。
B: Don’t be a Monday morning quarterback. 少放馬後炮了。
quarterback [ `kw7rt0%b1k ] 是「（美式足球的）四分衛」，球場上所 有球員都必須聽四分衛的指揮。在美國，美式足球賽於週末舉行，球 賽比完之後，球迷都會在星期一早上討論週末的比賽，他們通常會講： 「如果我是四分衛的話，我就會……」，所以這些 Monday morning quarterbacks 其實都是在「放馬後炮」。
• A: Alex thinks we made the wrong choice yesterday. 艾力克斯覺得我們昨天做了錯誤的決定。
B: He’s just a Monday morning quarterback. 8
他只不過是在放馬後炮。

Corrections 1 do homework 「寫作業；做功課」的英文固定用法是 do homework， 因為 homework「家庭作業」除了指書寫類的作業外， 也可能是觀察或實驗等非書寫類的作業，所以要用 do 當 動詞。write「書寫」所搭配的受詞必須限定在書寫類的 事物，例如 write a poem「寫一首詩」，write a story 「寫一個故事」，write a letter「寫一封信」等等。 • Alice always does her homework when she gets
home. 愛麗絲回到家都會做功課。 • Holly wrote a poem for her boyfriend. 荷莉為她男友寫了一首詩。
2 sometimes vs. some time sometimes 是頻率副詞，表示「有時候」，用來說明事情 發生的頻率，多用於現在簡單式。 • Sometimes I forget to bring my keys. 我有時候會忘記帶鑰匙。
some time 是由形容詞 some 加名詞 time 所構成的複 合名詞，表示「一段、一些時間」。 • We waited some time for Anna. 我們等了安娜一段時間。 根據文意，作者要表達她週末「有時候」會和家人去旅 行及「有時候」就只是待在家裡，因此要使用頻率副詞 sometimes 才正確。

3 at home 英文中並無 in home 的說法，欲表示「在家」要說 at home，home 前面不需加冠詞，且介系詞必用 at，因 此這句話要改成 And sometimes we just stay at home.。如果要表達某人「在屋子裡」，要說 in the house。 • I will be at home all night tonight. 我今天晚上會一直待在家。 • Carl and Mark are waiting in the house. 卡爾和馬克在屋子裡面等候。
4 beat vs. win (beat-beat-beaten)「擊敗」+ 比賽對手 { beat win (win-won-won)「贏得；獲勝」+ 比賽項目、分數 由上可知，文中的受詞 me 為「比賽對手」，因此動詞要 用 beat 才正確。 • Ashley beat Andrew at chess. （受詞為比賽對手）
艾希莉在西洋棋比賽中打敗了安德魯。 • Angela won the tennis game. （受詞為比賽項目）
安琪拉贏了網球比賽。
5 a lot of time 數量形容詞 many 用來修飾可數名詞，如 many birds 「很多小鳥」、many books「很多書」、many flowers 「很多花」等等。文中 time「時間」為不可數名詞，要用 a lot of 或 much 來修飾，又 much 不可使用於肯定句， 所以要說 a lot of time 才正確，因此句子要改成 I have a lot of time to do fun things. 才對。 • Ted spent a lot of money on his new shoes. 不可數名詞
泰德花很多錢買了雙新鞋。 • I can hear many birds singing in the tree. 可數名詞
我聽到樹上有很多鳥在啼叫。 • We aren’t getting much rain this winter. 不可數名詞

Think About It!
1. 正確答案為：(D)
3. 正確答案為：(A)
在英文中，若第二句的動詞（與其受詞）和第一句的相同， 就會用助動詞來代替先前提過的動詞（與其受詞），以避免 重複。有關第二句助動詞的使用方法，舉例說明如下： • Alison has sons, but her sisters don’t (have
A cost [ k7st ] v. 要價 (cost-cost-cost)（主詞必為「事物」） The plane ticket costs NT$2,000.
sons).
艾莉森有兒子，但她的姐妹沒有（兒子）。
•
has 是一般動詞現在式，所以要用助動詞 don’t/doesn’t 來代替， 又因 her sisters 是複數，所以要用 don’t。
Carlo ate eggs for breakfast, but I didn’t (eat eggs for breakfast). 卡洛早餐吃蛋，但我沒有（早餐吃蛋）。
•
ate 是一般動詞過去式，所以要用助動詞 didn’t 來代替。
Those drinks are free, but the popcorn isn’t (free). 那些飲料是免費的，但爆米花不是（免費的）。
are 是 be 動詞現在式，所以用 be 動詞 isn’t/aren’t 來代替（不需 使用助動詞），又因 the popcorn 是單數，所以要用 isn’t。
綜合上述可知，原句中的 has 是一般動詞現在式，故要使 用助動詞 don’t/doesn’t，又因 Western countries 是複 數，所以正確答案為 (D) don’t。 編註：你是否納悶為什麼第二句都要用否定句呢？那是因為連接 詞 but 是用來連接兩個「語意相反」的句子！
2. 正確答案為：(D) 此題測驗地方副詞的用法。
A somewhere [ `s9m%hw5r ] 在某處 Sandra lives somewhere in this town. 珊卓拉住在這個鎮上的某個地方。
B nowhere [ `no%hw5r ] 哪裡都不 Lisa needed to take care of her cats, so she went nowhere during her vacation. 麗莎必須照顧她的貓，所以她放假時哪裡都沒去。

C everywhere [ `5vr6%hw5r ] 到處 My dream is to travel everywhere in Africa. 我的夢想是在非洲各地旅行。 依照文意，答案為 (D)。
機票要價兩千元。
B pay [ pe ] v. 付錢 (pay-paid-paid)（主詞必須是「人」） I paid 500 dollars to Herman for that CD player. = I paid Herman 500 dollars for that CD player. 我付赫曼五百元買那台 CD 播放器。 C save [ sev ] v. 儲蓄；存（錢）（主詞為「人」） Julia didn’t save any money last month. 茱莉亞上個月沒有存下一毛錢。
D spend [ sp5nd ] v. 花費 (spend-spent-spent)（主詞須 為「人」）
I only want to spend about NT$1,000 for that dress. 我只想花一千元左右買那件洋裝。 原文的主詞 using public bathrooms 為「事物」，故正 確答案為 (A)。
4. 正確答案為：(C) parts of (place) 是固定用法，表示「（某地的）某些部分」， 故正確答案為 (C)。 • Some parts of the school will stay open during the summer vacation. 學校某些地方在暑假時會開放。
5. 正確答案為：(B) 有關 America 的相關字列舉如下： America [ 4`m5r6k4 ] n. 美洲；美國 雖然有些人會用此字來指稱「美國」，但較正確的說法應為 「美洲」；若要指「美國」，則以 USA (United States of
America) 或是 US (United States) 來表示較恰當。 • North America has 23 countries. 北美洲有二十三個國家。 American [ 4`m5r6k4n ] n. 美國人；美洲人（複數為 Americans [ 4`m5r6k4nz ]） adj. 美國（人）的；美洲（人）的 • Most Americans are crazy about baseball. 大部分的美國人都很瘋棒球。 America’s 是 America 的所有格 • Canada is North America’s biggest country. 加拿大是北美洲最大的國家。 根據上述，欲統稱「美國人」要用複數名詞 Americans， 故答案要選 (B)。 47

y Put your plants in the right place. 將植物擺在合適的地方。
Some plants need a lot of sunlight,* and some just need a little. Find out how much sunlight your plant needs.

播出時間：2014 年 03 月 11 日起，每週二晚上 10 點
The Cerrado is a huge savannah* in Brazil. It’s larger than Mexico, and its fields1 seem to go on forever. This place looks empty,2 but it’s full of life. It has 10,000 kinds of plants and 200 kinds of animals. The Cerrado is a difficult place to live, but plants and animals know how to survive there. In the Cerrado, nature works like a complicated3 machine. Every part of the machine is important. For example, the Cerrado has thousands and thousands of4 termite* mounds.* Anteaters* come to the mounds and eat the termites. An anteater must eat 30,000 termites per day. The termites need anteaters as well. When anteaters attack termite mounds, they make holes in the mounds. This is important because the Cerrado often has fires. Smoke5 enters the mounds, but it leaves through the holes. If anteaters didn’t make holes in the termite mounds, smoke would kill all of the termites. The plants and animals in the Cerrado work together to survive. Even the animals that kill each other also depend on each other. They all needed millions of years to develop their survival6 methods. You can learn all about life and death in the Cerrado on Animal Planet’s Mutant Planet. 54

There are thousands and thousands of books in that library. 那座圖書館有成千上萬本書籍。
【中文翻譯】 賽拉多生態區是位於巴西的疏林大草原，面積比墨西哥還大，有著綿延不絕的田野。此地看似空無一物，其實蘊 藏著豐富的生命，這裡擁有一萬種植物和兩百種動物。賽拉多的生存環境險惡，但動植物有其生存之道。 在賽拉多，大自然的運作方式好比一部錯綜複雜的機器，每個部分都很重要。舉例來說，賽拉多有成千上萬個白 蟻丘，食蟻獸會來到蟻丘，捕食白蟻。一隻食蟻獸每天必須吃下三萬隻白蟻；然而白蟻也需要食蟻獸，當食蟻獸攻擊 蟻丘時，會在蟻丘上挖洞，這很重要，因為賽拉多常常發生火災，當煙竄入蟻丘時，會從這些洞飄散出去，假如食蟻 獸沒有在蟻丘上製造洞口，煙霧會殺光所有的白蟻。 賽拉多的動植物互惠共生，即使是互相殘殺的動物們也相互依存。牠們花了好幾百萬年的時間才發展出這樣的生 存法則。 收看動物星球頻道的《地球變種》節目，你可以見識到賽拉多生態區裡所有的生死存亡。

將小魚從嘴裡吐出來的慈鯛。
在慈鯛領域產卵的鯰魚。
數量龐大的慈鯛科淡水魚類。
獵食者 (predator) 與獵物 (prey) 間奇特的生存模式還能在其他地方看到：東非大裂谷 (The Great Rift Valley) 的湖裡 有高達 1900 種慈鯛科 (cichlid) 淡水魚類，牠們與鯰魚 (catfish) 彼此爭奪生存空間，因而演化出特別的口腔孵化 (hatch) 方式。慈鯛在產卵後，會將魚卵 (egg) 含在口中孵化，以避開獵食者，而為了因應這種策略，鯰魚會將自己的卵產在慈鯛 的領域附近，不知情的慈鯛會連同鯰魚的卵一起含在嘴裡孵化，等到慈鯛將滿嘴已孵化完成的小魚吐出來時，卻發現吐出 的不是慈鯛幼魚，因為慈鯛的寶寶早已被寄生的小鯰魚全部吃光了。

動漫指的是日本動漫，它有色彩豐富 的圖像、瘋狂熱血的角色和精彩有趣的故 事情節。
史吉普：今天拿下最多分數的球員將會是我，史吉普 • 亞當 斯！我有一個秘密武器，我買了一雙新的運動鞋！
兩位非常知名的動漫畫家為手塚治虫 和宮崎駿。手塚治虫開創了著名的「大眼 睛」人物畫風；宮崎駿則製作了好幾部名 聞遐邇的動畫電影，像是《神隱少女》和 《霍爾的移動城堡》。
史吉普：丹尼爾，這雙不是我新的運動鞋。長椅旁的那雙運 動鞋才是我的秘密武器。
手塚治虫和宮崎駿都擁有博物館，手 塚治虫的博物館看起來就像是動漫世界； 而宮崎駿的博物館則是一間美術館，不過卻充滿了動漫風格。 宮崎駿說他希望他的博物館能幫助人們重溫年少時光。
丹尼爾：你腳上那雙運動鞋是舊的，看起來不怎麼樣。
琳達：你是指那雙有紅色星星的粉紅運動鞋嗎？還真適 合你。 史吉普：琳達，不好笑！那邊那雙運動鞋才是我的。 胖子皮特：哇！你在哪裡買的？ 史吉普：我上星期看了一篇關於這雙鞋的文章，我家後面的 商店有在販售，店員還說這雙鞋可以讓我變成超級 運動員。

史吉普：我剛剛只是在暖身，我現在就要射門得分了。哈！ 我得分了！我得分了！ 迪萊拉：史吉普，你只是運氣好罷了。 史吉普：迪萊拉，無所謂，我知道妳是在嫉妒。我是史吉 普 • 亞當斯，一位超級運動員！ 聽力測驗解答 : 1. B 2. A 3. C 4. B 5. C 6.C 7. B

Cloze Test 克漏字測驗 Toilet Culture 廁所文化大不同
31
Mon
亞洲有蹲式廁所，可是西方國家沒有，許多西方人覺得使 用蹲式廁所很不自在。 那就是廁所文化的一個例子。廁所文化因地而異，在巴黎， 使用公共廁所得花錢；在香港，離開旅館前都要先上個廁所， 因為在香港很難找到公廁。 再提供你一個要訣，在歐洲部分地區，人們會用 “Where’s the toilet?” 來問「廁所在哪裡？」如果你在美國這麼說，大家 會覺得很奇怪。美國人絕不會這麼說，他們會用 “Where’s the bathroom?” 來詢問。（編按：在美國，toilet 指的是「馬桶」）
A Good Book 一本好書 Starters 《起點人》 p. 48 在《起點人》這本書裡，世界正從一場可怕的戰爭中重建， 在那場戰爭裡，一種怪異的武器消滅了所有二十到六十歲之間 的人。只有年輕人和老年人存活下來。 所有年輕人都失去雙親，掙扎著求生，危機無所不在。然 而有一項新科技問世，這項科技可以將人的意識植入另一個 人的身體裡。有些年輕人為了賺錢，便將自己的身體租給老 年人，老年人付錢給年輕人，借用他們的身體。借用身體的 老人叫做「終點人」，而出租身體的年輕人叫「起點人」。 凱莉現年十六歲，為了生病弟弟的醫藥費，她成為起點人。 一開始一切都很順利，但後來凱莉發現了她的終點人的可怕秘 密。

p. 49 《起點人》提出一些很有意思的問題。在這個新世界，年 輕人和老年人會攜手合作還是會彼此鬥爭？老人擁有智慧、知 識和財富，但年輕人比他們健康和強壯。如果雙方打起來，誰 會贏？ 《起點人》還讓你思考其他事情。人們會從過去的經驗學 到教訓，還是會重蹈覆轍？他們會避免另一場戰爭，還是會 再次開打？在《起點人》這本書裡，很多人都無法從錯誤中 學習，因此罪犯、貪婪的企業和自私自利的人仍舊存在。 也許最重要的問題在於：誰才是幸運之人？或許幸運兒其 實是那些死於戰爭的人。 測驗解答 : 1. company 2. knowledge

p. 51 螢火蟲在還是蟲卵時就會發光，這麼做是為了驅離危險的 動物，亮光讓其他動物知道蟲卵具有毒性。動物們看見光就 會離開。成蟲也會發光，但此舉另有目的，牠們那麼做是為 了求偶。 螢火蟲在許多文化中佔有一席之地。在日本，人們曾經認 為螢火蟲是戰死士兵的靈魂；馬雅人則相信螢火蟲是來傳遞 神的旨意；在其他許多國家也有很多有關螢火蟲的古老傳說。 賞螢讓我們有機會親近大自然，螢火蟲季節一年只有一 次，這樣的經驗很美好，讓你有機會在忙碌的生活中休息 一下。 測驗解答 : 1. message 2. reason 3. poison 4. ancient
