辦公室英語口語千載難逢的機會
這是CN人才網小編整理的辦公室英語口語千載難逢的機會,歡迎瀏覽。
核心句型:
This is a chance once in a blue moon.這是個千載難逢的機會。
blue moon 在現(xiàn)代天文學意義上指:“一個月中的第二次滿月”,由于月運周期是29.5天,而根據(jù)日歷,每個月大多數(shù)都有至少30天,因此,大約每32個月才會出現(xiàn)一次一個月兩次圓月的現(xiàn)象。所以這個習語用以形容這種罕見的天文現(xiàn)象,后來引申為:“極為罕見的事情,千載難逢的機會”。因此,當美國人說"This is a chance once in a blue moon."時,他/她要表達的意思就是:"It is a golden opportunity."、"It is an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."。

Low emission, economical cars are gaining popularity in the world"s third largest auto market as an increasing number of new consumers are price conscious families who are sensitive to fuel costs. The urban elite and government officials are no longer the nation"s primary purchasers of vehicles.
詞匯:
低排量的車為:
low-emission vehicles/cars
高排量的車為:
high-emission vehicles/cars
所謂低排量的車一般也是便宜的車,所以假如我買了一兩小奧拓,可以說我買了一輛Low emission, economical car,而假如是買了奧拓他大哥比如4.0的奧迪A8,那么我們可以說他是high-emission and luxury cars. 高檔車我們有時候也簡稱premium cars。
在這里我們也呼吁一下
All unreasonable limitations on the use of low emission vehicles should be cancelled.
順便提一下汽車的排氣管叫做:
exhaust pipe
排氣管
跟排氣量表述有所不同,要注意哦。
