第一篇:貓的英語
1.貓cat一詞來自古英語catt,威爾士語叫做cath,西班牙語是gato,法語叫chat,德語則是kat,他們都源于拉丁語catus、cattus或者catta,表示家貓domestic cat,相應野貓wildcat的拉丁語就是feles。英文里常常把cat叫做pussycat,就跟我們把貓叫做貓咪一樣吧?日語的貓讀作ねこ neko。
2.一只貓叫做cat,一群貓要叫什么?有個專用詞叫做clowder,比方clowders of cats,還能用cludder或者clutter。男貓叫做tom哦,原來《貓和老鼠》里頭那只不是隨便叫的;可要是被閹割過的公貓就要叫做gib了。母貓叫做molly或者queen,女王誒!小貓咪大家都知道叫做kitten,在英國叫catling。
3.古埃及人對于貓有著特別的敬畏,因為女神Bastet巴蒂斯特往往以貓的姿態出現;而北歐愛與美的女神弗蕾亞Freyja所乘的戰車是兩只貓拉動的。很多古老的宗教認為貓擁有高貴的靈魂exalted souls;而很多文化認為貓多命multiple lives。日本的招財貓招き貓まねきねこManeki Neko是財富的象征。
4.和貓有關的習語好些個都涉及發怒。
壞脾氣的人,能用a bag of cats表示,想來一袋子貓可不是很抓狂嘛?舉例:My boss was a bag of cats yesterday.老板昨天發飆了誒。
同時hellcat特指發怒的女人,而have kittens也表示易怒,因為中世紀孕婦要是脾氣暴,會被認為是中了巫術懷上貓崽撓肚子。
5.貓狗詞組必定大戰。
fight like cats and dogs就表示吵得昏天黑地。
同樣live a cat and dog life就是三天一小吵五天一大吵;
cat-and-dog就是愛吵架的。
raining cats and dogs下貓下狗表示下大雨,因為狗是風神奧丁的侍從,貓是大雨的象征。
6.貓貓身體上的各個部分也能表達有趣的含義:
cat-eyed貓眼表示晚上也看得見;
cat's foot或者cat's paw貓爪表示被人利用成為傀儡;
cat o'nine tails是一種分好多頭兒的鞭子;
catlap貓貓舔則是很淡的茶或者牛奶;
catnap表示小睡一會兒;
cat's meow、cat's pajamas和cat's whiskers都是出類拔萃的意思!
7.說到貓,當然也少不了老鼠??
A cat in gloves catches no mice.戴手套的貓老鼠抓不到-意思是為達到目的可不能太斯文客氣;
Keep no more cats that catch mice.能抓老鼠的貓才養著-就是說別跟吃干飯的人來往;
When the cat's away, the mice will play.山中無老虎猴子稱大王。
8.各種各樣的貓代表著各種各樣的人:
alley cat胡同里的貓就是流浪貓,wildcat其實是野生的貓啦。
cool cat是時尚前衛的人,多指男性;
hep cat本來表示爵士樂迷,現在也有酷炫的意思;
copycat就是山寨假冒;
fat cat是權貴之人;
tomcat雄貓也有花花公子的意思;
glamour puss是光彩照人的女子。
9.貓貓的各種行為也成了諺語的一部分
fight like Kilkenny cats就是我們中文里頭的兩敗俱傷,Kilkenny是愛爾蘭的小鎮,無聊的士兵會斗貓,直到雙方自相殘殺,太殘酷了,會有報應的!
enough to make a cat laugh表示某事好笑得讓貓都笑了;
like a cat on hot bricks熱磚上的貓咪,有點像熱鍋上的螞蟻,表示很緊張神經質??
10.地獄貓和好奇貓
As much chance as a wax cat in hell,意思是根本就沒有機會;
這句話還可以說成“not have a cat in hell's chance” :
eg.They haven't a cat in hell's chance of getting over the mountain in weather like this。
在這種天氣里,他們根本沒機會翻越這座山。
Curiosity killed the cat,好奇殺死貓,是一句再熟悉不過的諺語。它原意是要提醒人們謹慎小心。
11.很多和貓相關的諺語都和名著有關
Grinning like a cheshire cat,“笑得像只柴郡貓” 意思就是說傻笑,這句話在《愛麗絲夢游仙境》中得到了絕妙的體現——想想那只柴郡貓,不是一直在笑嗎?
《愛麗絲夢游仙境》中還用到了許多這樣的英文諺語,詳情請看愛麗絲漫游仙境 角色玄機大揭秘!>>
Dog my cats,一句輕微的咒罵,跟“damn it!”意思差不多,中文大可譯為“喵了個咪”。歐亨利在《一只黃狗的記憶》中提到過。
12.不提到“貓”這個詞,同樣可以和貓有關
Rub someone's fur the wrong way,“反摸貓毛”,意思是激怒某人;
Make the fur fly,“讓毛飛起來”,意思是開始一場爭斗;
I smell a rat,“聞到了老鼠的味道”,意思是覺察到什么秘密。
第二篇:八年級英語作文(貓)
In my opinion, cats can become good pets.First, cats look cute.They are gentle and good at communicating with people.We enjoy playing with them.It’s pleasant to hold them in our arms.Second, cats are clean and quiet.We don't need to worry that they may make our houses dirty and make lots of noise.Besides, they can bring us lots of happiness.Third, cats are easy to take care of.You can feed them on some cheap food.For these reasons, I think that people like to keep cats as their pets.

老貓
一位老婦有只貓,這只貓很老,它跑不快了,也咬不了東西,因為它年紀太大了。一天,老貓發現一只老鼠,它跳過去抓這只老鼠,然而,它咬不住這只老鼠。因此,老鼠從它的嘴邊溜掉了,因為老貓咬不了它。
于是,老婦很生氣,因為老貓沒有把老鼠咬死。她開始打這只貓,貓說:“不要打你的老仆人,我已經為你服務了很多年,而且還愿意為你效勞,但是,我實在太老了,對年紀大的不要這么無情,要記住老年人在年青時所做過的有益的事情。” a man was going to the house of some rich person.as he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road.he said, i do not want to eat those apples;for the rich man will give me much food;he will give me very nice food to eat.then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust.he began to go home.he had eaten no food that day.he began to want food.he came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the dust and eat them.do not throw good things away;you may be glad to have them at some other time.【譯文】
一個人正朝著一個富人的房子走去,當他沿著路走時,在路的一邊他發現一箱好蘋果,他說:“我不打算吃那些蘋果,因為富人會給我更多的食物,他會給我很好吃的東西。”然后他拿起蘋果,一把扔到土里去。
他繼續走,來到河邊,河漲水了,因此,他到不了河對岸,他等了一會兒,然后他說:“今天我去不了富人家了,因為我不能渡過河。”
他開始回家,那天他沒有吃東西。他就開始去找吃的,他找到蘋果,很高興地把它們從塵土中翻出來吃了。
不要把好東西扔掉,換個時候你會覺得它們大有用處。the city mouse and the country mouse the country mouse went to the house of the city mouse.it was a very good house.nice food was set ready for them to eat.but just as they began to eat they heard a great noise.the city mouse cried, run!run!the cat is after some time they came out.when they came out, the country mouse said, i do not like living in the city.i like living in my hole in the field.for it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid.【譯文】
城里老鼠和鄉下老鼠
從前,有兩只老鼠,它們是好朋友。一只老鼠居住在鄉村,另一只住在城里。很多年以后,鄉下老鼠碰到城里老鼠,它說:“你一定要來我鄉下的家看看。”于是,城里老鼠就去了。鄉下老鼠領著它到了一塊田地上它自己的家里。它把所有最精美食物都找出來給城里老鼠。城里老鼠說:“這東西不好吃,你的家也不好,你為什么住在田野的地洞里呢?你應該搬到城里去住,你能住上用石頭造的漂亮房子,還會吃上美味佳肴,你應該到我城里的家看看。”
鄉下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮,好吃的東西也為他們擺好了。可是正當他們要開始吃的時候,聽見很大的一陣響聲,城里的老鼠叫喊起來:“快跑!快跑!貓來了!”他們飛快地跑開躲藏起來。
過了一會兒,他們出來了。當他們出來時,鄉下老鼠說:“我不喜歡住在城里,我喜歡住在田野我的洞里。因為這樣雖然貧窮但是快樂自在,比起雖然富有卻要過著提心吊膽的生活來說,要好些。篇三:英語演講自我介紹和story 1 the city mouse and the country mouse after some time they came out.when they came out, the country mouse said, i do not like living in the city.i like living in my hole in the field.for it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid.譯文:城里老鼠和鄉下老鼠
