【分享】:你知道吗?一年有两个儿童节!
The World Conference for the Well-being of Children in Geneva, Switzerland proclaimed June 1 to be International Children's Day in1925. It is not clear as to why June 1 was chosen as the International Children's Day: one theory has it that the Chinese consul-general in San Francisco (USA) gathered a number of Chinese orphans to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival in 1925, which happened to be on June 1 that year.
The holiday is celebrated on 1 June each year. It is usually marked with speeches on children's rights and wellbeing, children TV programs, parties, various actions involving or dedicated to children, families going out, etc.
Universal Children's Day takes place on November 20 annually. First proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 1954, it was established to encourage all countries to institute a day, firstly to promote mutual exchange and understanding among children and secondly to initiate action to benefit and promote the welfare of the world's children. Universal Children's Day is preceded by International Men's Day on November 19 creating a 48 hour celebration of men and children respectively during which time the positive roles men play in children's lives are recognized.
国际儿童日是每年的11月20日,1954年的联合国大会上,这个节日的提出是为了推动所有国家都设立一个专门的日子来:首先,促进各国儿童之间的交流和沟通;其次,通过采取行动来提升各国儿童的福利。国际儿童日在国际男人日(11月19日)随后的一天,在48小时的儿童节和男人日的庆祝中,男人在儿童生活中的重要意义得到认可。作者: pearrot 时间: 2012-6-9 17:57

【学好美语必须掌握的地道习语】
Give Me a Break
范例:Oh, come on. Give me a break. 噢,算了吧。别开玩笑了。
句型解说:“Give me a break.” 是一句很流行的话。但凡你听到别人说一个消息、的一件事或任何一句话,你挺了不相信,都可以回他一句 “give me a break”, 既清楚表达了不相信他说的话,而且又充分地运用了一句流行的英语(论坛)。“give me a break”“get out of here”都有不相信对方的意思。但“get out of here” 所表达的不相信中,含有兴奋的意味。例如:有人说你漂亮,你回答他说:“别骗我了,要用get out of here,而不用give me a break。因为别人的说你漂亮,你虽然说别开玩笑了,事实上正芳心暗喜呢。
灵活运用:
1.Mary: Do you know who is going with John ?
你知道谁是John的女朋友吗?
Jack: Ann Lee? Give me a break。
李安妮?别开玩笑了。
2.John: Tell you what.
告诉你一个消息。
I'm going to beat Tom at math contest.
我会在数学竞赛中赢汤姆。
Mary: Oh, give me a break.Tom is so good at math
