fish in the air Meaning: to waste one’s energy 白费力气 Story: 在这个短语中,fish作动 词,意思是“钓鱼”。 空中怎么能够掉到鱼呢? 没错,fish in the air 正是“白费力气”的意 思,与我们所熟知的 “水中捞月”有异曲同工 之妙。 Example: Don’t fish in the air. He is hard to speak to. 别白费力气 了,他根本就说不通。

让我们来认识一下这些国家吧 Around the World
Culture 同样的手势在不同的国家可能有着截然不同的含义。例如:“V”的手势在许多国家都代表“胜利”或者“荣耀”的意思。可是如果做这个动作的时候掌心朝着自己,那么在西方国家就是具有侮辱性的动作了。又如:我们打招呼的时候常会做举起右手并且五指张开这个动作。可是如果一不注意,做成了手臂伸直,五指并拢的动作,那就麻烦了。这个动作在德国是纳粹分子的专属动作,在那里做这个手势,可能会引起政治纠纷。
课外点拨 定冠词the在国家名称前的用法 国家名称前到底要不要加the呢?其实,它分为两种情况。 一般来说,我们常用的国家名大多只是简称,所以不需要加定冠词the。 例如:China, America, Australia 但是,当我们使用国家名字的全称时,就必须在前面加上定冠词the。 例如:the United States 美利坚合众国(美国) the United Kingdom 联合王国(英国) the People’s Republic of China 中华人民共和国(中国)
