love handles / a spare tire来形容tire-like shape around the midsection（像轮胎一样粗的腰围）。

第一，小三叫mistress 或者the other woman;

第二，破坏别人家庭的人是home wrecker;

第三，耍心计是to scheme !

Being a team leader can be a lot of work, so group-buying websites have sprung up, serving as agents between buyers and sellers and receiving a commission from the sale.

组织大家团购是一件劳心费力的差事，所以众多团购网站迅速涌现出来，成为买家和卖家之间的“代理”，并从交易中获得一定的佣金。

文中的group-buying就是指“团购”，名词形式为group buying，即为一个团队向商家采购，国际通称B2T （Business To Team），是继B2B（Business to Business），B2C（Business to Consumer），C2C（Consumer to Consumer）后的又一种e-commerce（电子商务模式），最核心的优势体现在商品价格更为优惠，也称为group buys。

在group buying活动中，参与者通常能享受到bulk discounts（大幅优惠），获得ultra-discounted tickets（超低价优惠券）。平时在促销活动中，我们也能得到discount coupon（打折券）、rebate coupon（现金券/抵金券），而如果这种优惠券属于cents-off coupons，那就只是“象征性优惠”了。要识别哪家店在打折其实很容易，远远的看见on sale（大甩卖）的牌子就是啦。

Rebate 回扣

self-organized expedition就是“自助游”，也可以用self-funded travel，private tour，independent travel，DIY tour等来表示。现在很多人都有了自己的车，于是“自驾游”（self-driving travel/tour）也成了自助游的一个重要的形式。与自助游相对的就是“跟团旅游”（package tour/group tour/organized tour）。

“自助餐”（buffet dinner）、“自助火锅”（buffet hot pot），“自助餐厅”（cafeteria）、“自助洗衣店”（laundromat），“自助贸易”（DIY trade）

“假后综合症”就是post-holiday syndrome

1. I'm so fed up with your BS. Cut the crap.我受够了你的废话，闭嘴吧。

当你听到对方废话连篇、讲个不停时，你就可以说“Cut the crap”，相当于中文里的“废话少说”。

2. Hey! Wise up!别傻了！

当别人做了什么愚蠢的事时，你可以说“Don't be stupid”或是“Don't be silly”，但这是非常不礼貌的说法。比较客气一点的说法就是“wise up”，相当于中文里的“放聪明点”。

3. Put up or shut up.要么你去做, 不然就给我闭嘴.

4. You eat with that mouth?你是用这张嘴吃饭的吗?

如果别人对你说脏话，你就回敬他这一句。言下之意就是“你的嘴那么脏，你还用这张嘴吃饭”。

5. You are dead meat.你死定了。

6. Don't you dare!/How dare you! 你敢！

7. Don't push me around.不要摆布我。

如果有人指挥你一下做这个，一下做那个，你就可以用这一句“Hey! Don't push me around”。还有一句跟push 有关的成语, 叫push the button，意思就是“指使、操纵”，例如, I know why you are doing this, someone is pushing your button!

8. Are you raised in the barn?你是在乡下长大的吗?

9. You want to step outside?/You want to take this outside?你想到外面解决吗?

要是两个人言语不和吵起来了，可能就有人要说这一句了，指的就是“你想出去打架吗”。类似的说法还有“Do you want to pick a fight”。

10. You and what army?/You and who else?你找了多少人来啊?

要是有人跟你说“Do you want to step outside”，你就可以回他这一句，意思是说“那你找了多少人来打架啊?”还有一句话也很有意思，叫“Whose side are you on”，这就是在快要打架时问别人说“你到底是站在哪一边的”。

2. How about that!那可太好了，太棒了！/真是令人难以置信！

很多人理解这句话的意思就是“what do you think of it?（你觉得怎么样?）”。其实，“how about it”的意思才是“你觉得怎么样”。当你听到一些令人难以置信或难以理解的事时你就可以说“Wow, how about that”，翻译过来就是“竟然会有这种事！”或“真是令人难以置信！”。当然，这句话也可以在肯定对方的建议或事情时使用，表示“那可太好了，太棒了”。

3. What a day!多......的一天啊！

这句话在不同的情境下含义不同。比如你在单位折腾了一天，累得要死，回家把自己往床上一扔，然后意味深长的说what a day! 意思就是“这一天把我累的！”。再有，如果你早上摔了一跤，中午吃饭时又丢了钱包。总之，倒霉的事都赶到一天了，你也可以用这句话来表示“What a day! Just my luck!”（今天真倒霉！就这命了！）还有，如果你向女朋友求婚成功，晚上回家前又捡了一个iPhone4，你也可以说“What a day!”（今天真是太走运了！）。这句话还可以改成what a night!/What a weekend!/What a man!等等。

4. What's your story, morning glory?瞧你高兴的，有什么好事啊？

先说一下，morning glory就是“牵牛花”。如果你看一个熟人从远处走来，一脸的笑容，你就可以说这句话，翻译过来就是“这是有什么好事啊，看你高兴的！”说话的感觉是轻松幽默的。

5. If I tell you, I'd have to kill you.就不告诉你。

这句话通常是在一种轻松的环境下，你不愿意回答对方问题而说的话，字面意思很容易懂，翻译成汉语的感觉就是“嘿嘿，我就不告诉你！”

6. I need it like a hole in my head.我根本就不需要这个。

这句话表面上没有否定词，表达得确是实强烈的否定含义。

7. He is a real go-better.他的确是个能成事的人。

这句话里go-better是个关键词，表示越来越好。英语里表达“成功”就是get there，所以口语里说“now we are getting somewhere”表达的意思就是“看来我们的谈话（努力，尝试等等）有了进展。”鼓励别人时也可以说You are going places.（你会成功的。）

8. That's all there's to it.事情大概就是这样。

它表达的就是“事情大概就是这样”。其实类似这样的句子很多，单词都是小学生都认识，可是真正能恰到好处的用出来的人却寥寥无几。比如：I don’t know what came over me.（我不知道自己哪根筋不对。）等等。

9. She doesn't like this a little.

这句话应该翻译成“她可不仅是喜欢而已”。英语中有很多有否定词但含义却截然不同的表达。比如I'm not a little cold.（我很冷）、It is a good father that knows his son.（再好的父亲也未必了解自己的孩子）、No wisdom like silence.（智者寡言）、That's the last thing I want to do.（我最不愿意做那件事）等等。

10. Nice guys finish last.好人不得志啊！

你有没有发现，生活中总是有一群人，人品差不说，长相也属于“龙飞凤舞”型。可是人家的女朋友就是比你的漂亮；还有就是平时花钱大手大脚，可是一买彩票就中大奖，这种“狗屎运”的人比比皆是。而自己呢，努力了，拼搏了，奋斗了，结果总是不如人意。这种情况就可以用这句“nice guys finish last”来形容了，这句话中有点“好人不得志”或“好人难做”的味道。

1. She was going to sell the house but had a change of heart at the last minute.

她本来是要卖房子的，但在最后一刻，她改了主意。

2. The anti-hunting campaigners are just a bunch of bleeding hearts who don't understand the countryside. 那些反狩猎者只不过是一些不懂乡村生活的滥好人。

3. Everyone in the office is especially cheerful on payday, since a heavy purse makes a light heart. 发工资那天办公室里的每个人都很高兴，因为有钱心情才轻松！

5. Yes, I'm a chicken-hearted softie. I never try anything too risky.

对，我是很胆小，我从来不做什么太冒险的事情。

6. Don't be so shy about talking to Edith. Faint heart never won fair lady.

别不敢和伊迪丝说话，懦夫难得美人心。

7. My wallet was emptier than a banker's heart. 我的钱包空空如也。

8. I had my heart in my mouth when I heard the national anthem. 听到国歌我很激动。

9. His heart was in his boots as he waited for news of the accident.

在等待那场事故的消息的时候，他很紧张。

10. Don't let your heart rule your head. If you lend him that money you'll never see it again.

别感情用事，你借给他钱就有去无回了。

11. I hope to win her heart and make her my bride. 我希望能赢得她的芳心，娶她做新娘。

12. What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over. 眼不见心不烦。

13. John always has his heart on his sleeve so that everyone knows how he feels.

约翰总把心情写在脸上，每个人都知道他是怎么想的。

14. The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.

要想拴住男人的心，就要先拴住他的胃。

15. John wanted a week's vacation so he could go to the lake and fish to his heart's content.

约翰想请一周的假，这样他就可以去湖边尽情地钓鱼了。

16. I'd only met him once, and here he was, pouring out his heart to me.

我只跟他见过一次面，但他已经在向我倾吐心事了。

17. When I first saw you, my heart stood still. 我第一次见你时，我的心都停止跳动了。

18. I just don't have the heart to tell him the bad news.

我实在不忍心告诉他那个坏消息。

19. He returned with a heavy heart. 他心情沉重地回来了。

20. Tom looks very rough, but his heart is in the right place.

In Guiyang, there are quite a few such professional bargainers. Some of them even set up bargaining networks and groups. They provide a wide range of services, including buying cars, furniture, property and wedding services.

在贵阳有不少这样的职业议价员，有些人甚至组建了议价网站和议价组织。他们提供的服务覆盖范围很广，包括购买汽车、家具、房产和婚庆服务等。

上文报道中的professional bargainer就是“职业议价员”，他们有些人还成立了议价组织，采用的是on-site group buying bargain（网上团购议价）的模式，将消费者组织起来和供货商集体协商，以获得favored price（优惠价格）。

有的人认为聘请职业议价员能够让自己得到bulk discounts（大幅优惠），不过也有人不认为这是个好主意，他们认为职业议价员有可能串通商家，进行under-the-table deals（暗中交易）。

1.4王光亚在普林斯顿大学的演讲开场白女士们、先生们：晚上好。很荣幸应邀到普林斯顿大学参加你们的研讨会。对我本人、我的同事及许多中国人来讲，普林斯顿大学的名字早已是耳熟能详。她的历史比这个国家还长，从这个校园里走出了美国第28任总统伍德罗·威尔逊、伟大科学家爱因斯坦、著名诗人T.S.艾略特等众多杰出人物。正如前总统克林顿先生在1996年普大建校250周年时所说：“在美国历史上的每一个紧要关头，普林斯顿大学及其师生都发挥了关键作用。” 令人高兴的是，在座诸位对中国事务都抱有研究兴趣。虽然我们两国地理上相距万里，但在日常生活中却非常相近。好莱坞影片、麦当劳快餐成了许多中国人生活中的内容。而中国加工的服装、日用品也天天伴随着美国人民。我希望通过今天的交流，能增进在座诸位对中国和中国外交政策的了解，为未来彼此的友谊与合作锦上添花。 Ladies and Gentlemen, Good evening. It is an honor for me to be invited to your seminar tonight. For me, for my colleagues and many other Chinese, Princeton has long been a familiar name. With a history longer than the country, it has produced many outstanding people, Woodrow Wilson, the 28th US President, Albert Einstein, the great scientist, and T. S. Eliot, the famous poet, to name but a few. As the former President Bill Clinton said in 1996 in celebration of the 250 anniversary of Princeton: "At every pivotal moment in American history, Princeton, its leadership, its students have played a crucial role." I am more pleased to learn that all of you have a keen interest in China. Though our two countries are geographically far apart, we have lots in common. While many Chinese enjoy Hollywood movies and McDonald's fast food, many Americans find that their clothes and daily necessities are made in China. I hope that today's seminar will help you gain a better understanding of China and its foreign policy, thus further deepening our friendship and cooperation.

Youngsters’job preferences and prospects are mismatched 年轻人的工作偏好与就业前景不相匹配 Teenage picks 青少年的选择 The world of work is changing.Are people ready for the new job outlook? A survey of15-year-olds across41countries by the OECD,a club of mostly rich countries,found that teenagers may have unrealistic expectations about the kind of work that will be available. 职业的世界正在发生变化。人们做好准备接受新的就业观了吗？世界经合组织（一个以发达国家为主的组织）对41个国家的15岁青少年进行了一项调查，结果发现青少年对于未来可能从事的工作抱有不切实际的期望。 Four of the five most popular choices were traditional professional roles: doctors,teachers,business managers and lawyers. Teenagers clustered around the most popular jobs,with the top ten being chosen by47%of boys and53%of girls.Those shares were significantly higher than when the survey was conducted back in2000. 在五个最受欢迎的职业选择中有四个是传统的职业角色：医生、教师、企业经理和律师。青少年对于最受欢迎工作的选择呈现了聚集性，有47％的男孩和53％的女孩选择了排在前十位的职业。这一比例显著高于2000年调查时的水平。 The rationale for this selection was partly down to wishful thinking on the part of those surveyed(designers,actors and musical performers were three of the top15jobs).Youth must be allowed a bit of hope. 受访者做出这一选择往往是出于自己的一厢情愿（最受欢迎的15个职业中有3个分别是设计师、演员和歌手）。我们必须给年轻人一点希望。

Cloth of gold 一块价值堪比黄金的布 Why the economic value of a face mask is$56.14 为什么说一个口罩的经济价值是56.14美元 After a brutal first six months of the year,governments across the world are hoping for an economic bounce-back.Rich-world GDP fell by about 10%in the first half of2020. 在经历今年上半年的残酷考验后，世界各国政府都期待经济能够触底反弹。2020年上半年，发达国家的GDP下降了约10%。 Yet much has changed since—including that more people are now wearing masks.Economists,obsessed with translating everything into GDP,wonder if more widespread face-covering could help the recovery.然而，自从越来越多的人戴上口罩后，情况发生了显著变化。经济学家痴迷于用GDP来解释一切事物，如今他们想知道，随着更多的人戴上了口罩，经济能否走向复苏。The thinking goes that masks can,in part,substitute for lockdowns. People wearing them need not be discouraged as much from using public transport.More shops and offices might be able to reopen,albeit while practising social distancing. 这种想法基于这样一个逻辑，戴口罩在一定程度上可以代替封锁措施。当人们戴上口罩后，就不必再对公共交通工具进行限制了。更多的商店和办公室也将重新开放，尽管是在保持社交距离的前提下。 Calculations from Goldman Sachs,a bank,suggest that a15 percentage-point rise in the share of the population that wears masks

Tencent Video battles iQiyi in China’s streaming wars腾讯视频与爱奇艺之中国流媒体大战 But the two big Chinese streaming platform may onc day settle into a cosy duopoly 但两大平台在未来某天或将实现双头垄断 L aunched in2010,iQiyi has grown used to the foreign press calling it“the Netflix of China”.Not the worst nickname,given the videostreaming pioneer’s success.But Gong Yu,iQiyi’s founder and boss,insists that his firm is more accurately described as“Netflix plus”.A bold claim for a loss-making business worth one-fifteenth as much as America’s(cash-generating)entertainment powerhouse with a market value of$214bn.Still,Mr Gong has a point. 创立于2010年的爱奇艺常常被外国媒体称为“中国版网飞”。鉴于这家流媒体先驱的成功，这一称号也算名副其实。但爱奇艺创始人兼老板龚宇坚称，准确来说，爱奇艺是“加强版网飞”。对于这家仍在亏损的公司来说，这种说法有些张狂，作为美国娱乐业巨头的网飞现已实现盈利，市值高达2140亿美元，而爱奇艺市值仅为其十五分之一。不过，龚宇所言仍有些许道理。 Like Netflix,iQiyi offers customers a deep catalogue of licensed and original content.Unlike Netflix,which relies almost entirely on subscription fees,iQiyi has multiple revenue streams.“Membership fees”,which start from19.8yuan ($2.87)a month,accounted for just over half of iQiyi’s7.4bn yuan in revenues in the second quarter. 爱奇艺和网飞一样，也为客户提供海量版权及原创影视作品。但不同于几乎完全依赖会员费的网飞，爱奇艺拥有多项收入来源。在爱奇艺第二季度74亿元的营收中，每月19.8元（约合2.87美元）起的“会员费”占比刚刚过半。 The rest came mainly from an online store(which sells“entertainment-related merchandise”),a nascent mobile-gaming arm,an e-book business and advertisements;iQiyi operates a“freemium”model which allows stingier users to stream some content free of charge provided they agree to watch ads.

商务英语口语参考答案 I.From Chinese into English 1、我坚信您的来访将促进我们双方的了解和友谊。 I’m sure your visit will help promote the friendship and understanding between us. 2、这样大的订单，我们通常是在收到有关信用证后两个月内交货。 For such a large order, we usually make delivery within two months after receipt of the relative L/C. 3、你们的报盘比你们在其它国家的竞争对手所报的一些价格要高 Your offers are higher than some of the quotations from your competitors in other countries. 4、不过，按照惯例，除非你方要求，否则我们是不投保这些险种的。 But as a rule, we don’t cover them unless you want to. 5、由于你方的价格偏高，目前我们很难推销你方的数码摄相机。 As your price is on the high side, it’s difficult for us to push the sale of your digital cameras nowadays. 6、如有劣质货物交达，本公司就永远不会再下定单了。 If the goods of inferior/bad/poor quality are delivered, we will not place our order with you again. 7、如一方未能履约，另一方有权终止合同。 If one side fails to honour the contract, the other side are entitled to cancel it. 8、由于你方不同意降低价格，我们只好到他处订货。 As you don’t agree to reduce your price, we will have to purchase the goods elsewhere. 9、要是那样的话，您能否接受远期信用证，允许我们延迟付款，比如，见票后60天付款？If that’s the case, could you accept a time L/C and allow us to delay payment, say, 60 days after sight? 10、如果是我们的错，我们会乐意地赔偿贵方的损失的。 If we were at fault, we should be very glad to compensate for your losses. 11、我是不是有足够的时间办理入境和通关手续呢？ Will I have enough time to go through the immigration and the customs? 12、假如你方给3% 的佣金，我们将向你试订一批货。 We shall book a trial order with you, provided you will give us a 3% commission. 13、请告诉我您需要的数量，这样我们才好安排生产和装运。 Please let us know the quantity you required so that we can arrange the production and shipment date. 14、顺便问一下，如果我想要货物在圣诞节前交的话，我什么时候必须开立信用证？ By the way, when must I open the L/C if I want the goods to be delivered before Christmas season? 15、鉴于我们过去几年的友好合作关系，我们各让一步吧，我把价格降低3%。 In view of our good cooperation over the past years, let’s meet each other half way; I’ll make a reduction by 3%. 16、交货的延误是由于你们信用证的延误。你们的信用证昨天才到达。 The delay in shipment is due to your delay in opening the letter of credit.

China in Laos Busted flush How a Sino-Lao special economic zone hit the skids May 26th 2011 | BOTEN, LAOS | from the print edition ?Tweet ? Soon all this will be jungle again AT HOME and abroad, China is a byword for fast-track development, where yesterday’s paddy field is tomorrow’s factory, highway or hotel. Less noticed is that such development can just as quickly go into reverse. Golden City, in Boten, just over the border from China in tiny Laos, is a case in point. When a Hong Kong-registered company signed a 30-year, renewable lease with the Lao government in 2003 to set up a 1,640-hectare special economic zone built with mainland money and expertise, Golden City was touted as a

2020-2021年英语八年级英语上册阅读理解及答案

2020-2021年英语八年级英语上册阅读理解及答案一、八年级英语上册阅读理解专项练习（含答案解析） 1．阅读理解 Do you have true friends? Do you want to know better between you and your friends? There are three different kinds of friends: "pest friends", "guest friends", and "best friends". The first kind of friend is simply acquaintances （熟人）, and all you usually know about them is their names. You may meet this kind of friend at school, at work, or on the bus, but you don't miss them when they're not around. When this kind of friend does something bad, you don't tell them. That is why they are called "pest friends". The second kind of friend could also be called "social partners". They are closer than acquaintances, but not as close as true friends. You know their names, a little of what they like or dislike, and a little of their family histories; you usually have a few things in common, but you don't talk about anything deep（深）, such as your wishes or fears（害怕）, and they don't open up to you how they really feel. The last kind of friend, the "best friend", is the one you know the deepest. You're like family, and know everything about each other. You have no problem staying at each other's houses, and you share your deepest feelings and thoughts. They will correct you when you're wrong, and though they may not be perfect（完美的）, they at least will always care about you, and never do anything on purpose（故意地）to hurt you. We all have our pest, guest, and best friends. We should value（重视）all friendships and remember, all best friends start out as just acquaintances. （1）If you and David are neighbors and classmates, and do things together, but don't share their feelings, you are " ".

Not as close as lips and teeth China should not fear India’s growing friendship with Vietnam Oct 22nd 2011 | from the print edition WHEN China’s sovereignty is at issue Global Times, a Beijing newspaper, does not mince words. In September it growled that a contract between Vietnam and an Indian state-owned oil-and-gas company, ONGC, to explore in Chinese-claimed waters in the South China Sea would “push China to the limit”. Yet this month India and Vietnam have reached an agreement on “energy co-operation”. Global Times is incensed that this was signed just a day after Vietnam, during a visit to Beijing by the head of its communist party, Nguyen Phu Trong, had agreed with China on “ground rules” for solving maritime squabbles. Now, thundered the paper, “China may consider taking actions to show its stance and prevent more reckless attempts in confronting China.” The more sober China Energy News, a publication of the Communist Party’s People’s Daily, has weighed in, warning India that its “energy strategy is slipping into an extremely dangerous whirlpool.” Behind such fulminations lie two C hinese fears. One is that India’s involvement complicates its efforts to have its way in the tangled territorial disputes in the South China Sea. The

2018考研英语：阅读经济学人文章(一)

2018考研英语：阅读经济学人文章（一） German politics 德国政治 Gone boy on the right 消失的极右领袖 How an anti-foreigner, anti-establishment group ischanging German politics 一个反移民、反伊斯兰化组织如何改变德国政治 Bachmann: only joking, honest 巴赫曼：真的只是玩笑罢了 THE march on January 19th in Dresden by Pegida, or “Patriotic Europeans against theIslamisation of the Occident”, would have been its 13th. But it was cancelled because the policehad “concrete”information of plans to assassinate its organiser, Lutz Bachmann. On January21st Mr Bachmann was exposed in German tabloids for posing as Hitler on his Facebook page.He called it a joke, but later resigned his position. Pegida plans to resume its marches nextweek. 1月19日，在德累斯顿爆发了一场由Pegida(或者称作“爱国欧洲人反对西方的伊斯兰化”)发起的游行。本来这次游行应该在13号举行，但是由于警方获知了刺杀该运动领袖卢茨巴赫曼行动的“详细”信息而被取消。1月21日，巴赫曼因为在“脸书”(Facebook)上传其模仿希特勒的照片而被德国小报争相报道。他声称这只是一个玩笑，但是随后他宣布辞职。Pegida计划下周恢复游行。 Among its followers, despite Mr Bachmann's antics, neo-Nazis are a small minority. The typicalmarcher is a middle-aged, middle-class Saxon man who, says Hans V orl?nder at the TechnicalUniversity of Dresden, is alienated from politics and the liberal media, and yearns for ahomogenous fatherland. The marches may have “passed the peak”, adds Dieter Rucht at theBerlin Social Science Centre. Yet there will be political fallout. Nine-tenths of Pegida supportersback the Alternative for Germany (AfD), founded only in 2013 and represented in three easternstate parliaments. 在该运动众多的追随者中，除了巴赫曼这种滑稽行为的人，新纳粹仍是少数。据来自德尔德累斯顿技术大学的汉斯?福尔兰德尔讲，其中有一位的游行示威者是较为典型，他是一个来自于萨克森州的中年中产阶级男性，他对政治和自由媒体漠不关心，却呼唤一个同文同种的父国。柏林社会科学研究中心的Dieter Rucht说到，这支游行队伍可能已经“越过底线”。也许会带来某些政治后果。Pegida运动中有十分之九的支持者拥护德国新选项党(AfD)，该党于2013年刚刚成立，享有东部三个州的议会席位。
