病人講的三句話都是十分“paradoxical”(似是而非)
Key words:
1. to sprinple 噴灑 to ~ salt 灑鹽
他說(shuō):我從來(lái)不往冰淇淋上撒鹽的
2. caffeine 咖啡因 de-表示“去除”的前綴。decaffeinated coffee
去除了咖啡因的咖啡; Decaf 脫因咖啡,
e.g.: Watress, I‘d like a decaf. 我要一杯脫因咖啡。 I only like decalf coke. 我只喜歡脫因可樂(lè)。
但是沒(méi)有聽(tīng)說(shuō)過(guò)披薩有這樣的
3. fat脂肪 be 100% fat free 100%無(wú)脂,也沒(méi)有聽(tīng)說(shuō)啤酒含有脂肪的
所以,其幽默在于這位先生所謂的減肥全都是假的!
日常生活中的簡(jiǎn)寫(xiě)詞還有不少,如:
1. Can you pass me the remote(=remote controller 遙控器)?
2. The AC (=air-conditioner,空調(diào))in my room isn't working. Couold you have someone come up and take a look at it?
3. I heard you're a sci-fi(=scietific fiectio,科幻)writer. It that true?
4. I've been to the US, but I've never been to DC (District of Columbia,華盛頓(哥倫比亞特區(qū)).
