奥运会金牌真的是金子做的吗?当然不是!2012年伦敦奥运会的金牌虽然号称为史上最大最重,但其实绝大部分的成分是银,只是在表面镀了一层金!所以,运动员们,切记不要用力咬金牌哦,说不定金牌就露陷了!
THE gold medals that will be awarded in London this year will be the biggest and heaviest handed out at any summer Olympics. At 400 grams (14 ounces) they will be 17 times heavier than at the 1912 Olympics in Stockholm. On the other hand, the 1912 games were the last one where gold medals were made entirely of gold. Now they consist mainly of silver with a thin coat of gold—6 grams is the minimum requirement. The London medal will have a goldcontent of only about 1.5%, and at current prices will be worth $706. Calculations by The Economist find that this is much more than the "podium value" of any previous gold medal (based on estimates of the composition of medals and bullion prices at the time, adjusted forinflation). This is partly because gold and silver prices are now historically high and partly because this year’s medal is so much heavier, even though the extra weight is silver rather than gold. For the first time, the silver in this year’s "gold" medal is actually worth more than its gold content. Moreover, if the metal content of earlier medals is valued at today’s bullion prices, the London gold is worth only just over half of those handed out in 1912.
2012年伦敦奥运会上所颁发的金牌将会是史上最大也是最重的金牌。每块金牌重400克(14盎司),其重量为1912年斯德哥尔摩奥运会金牌的17倍。不过,1912年奥运会是最后一届采用纯金打造金牌的奥运会。现在的金牌主要成分是银,只在表面镀一层不少于6克重的纯金。本届伦敦奥运会的金牌含金量仅为1.5%,折合现在的金价约为706美元(约合人民币4250元)。根据《经济学人》杂志的计算,伦敦奥运金牌的价值将超过以往任何一届的金牌价值(根据当时的金牌成分和价值估算,并考虑了通货膨胀的因素),因为现在的金银价格都达到了历史最高点,即使多出来的重量是白银而不是更贵的黄金。本届伦敦奥运会金牌中的白银价值首次超过了其中黄金的价值,而且如果把之前金牌含金量的价值按照现在的牌价计算的话,伦敦奥运会金牌的价值仅比1912年奥运会的一半多一点而已。

小编说:知道么?尽管你博览群书但是一些行业术话你还是听不懂。。。比如伦敦的金融界
伦敦金融界行话(jargon)中有一种类似押韵俚语,很有意思。这些行话比起一般的押韵俚语更晦涩难解。例如:
I asked him for a price of a Hawaii but he would only quote me in a lady.
局外人很难理解其真实含义。其中,Hawaii原义为“夏威夷”,但在此处代表的是“fifty million”,而a lady却代表five million。这句话的意思是:“我向他要价5,000万(英镑),而他却只出500万。”
在这里,Hawaii来自一个电视节目“Hawaii Five-O”,Five-O当然代表50 million;lady是Lady Godiva的省略形式。(Lady Godiva是著名的Peeping Tom典故中的女主人公。)Lady Godiva同fiver(five million)押韵。
英镑同美元的兑换比率称为cable,来自于英美间的跨大西洋的电缆(cable),因而英镑同美元的兑换比率在伦敦金融行话中也称为Betty,来自于女演员Betty Grable,因为这个名字同cable押韵。
其它情况还有:
one—a Spaniard (Juan)(Don Juan为西班牙的一位传奇人物)
a pair—Lionel (Blair)(一位舞蹈家)
three—carpet (flea)(地毯跳蚤)
four—Desmond (Tutu)(Desmond Tutu为南非的大主教,用Tutu来表示four自然是因为Two twos are four)
five—a steep hill(来自于one-in-five 1 : 5的坡度)
eight—a garden (gate)或John Curry(John Curry是一位花样滑冰运动员,用它显然是因为skate的缘故)
ten—Cockle (and Hen)(公鸡和母鸡)
a score—a motor-bike(人们很难将motor-bike和20联系起来,而其中的原因却是骑手双手握住车把手,给发动机加油门两次手指共用20个。)
a half — a laugh
seven-eighths—seven Henries(Henry为Henry VIII之略)
three quarters—three farmers(farmers为farmers' daughters之略)
在人类交往中,俚语是一个十分难以理解的成分,而押韵俚语,如果不知其来源,理解起来会更加困难,而一旦了解了,它们又变得如此趣味盎然。了解一些押韵俚语对于熟悉英国社会、文化、风俗习惯以及进行实际交际都会有很大的帮助。

威廉·布莱克(William Blake),英国第一位重要的浪漫主义诗人、版画家,英国文学史上最重要的伟大诗人之一,虔诚的徒。主要诗作有诗集《纯真之歌》、《经验之歌》等。早期作品简洁明快,中后期作品趋向玄妙深沉,充满神秘色彩。 他一生中与妻子相依为命,以绘画和雕版的劳酬过着简单平静的创作生活。后来诗人叶芝等人重编了他的诗集,人们才惊讶于他的虔诚与深刻。接着是他的书信和笔记的陆续发表,他的神启式的伟大画作也逐渐被世人所认知,于是诗人与画家布莱克在艺术界的崇高地位从此确立无疑。
I wandered through each chartered street, 我走过每条独占的街道,
Near where the chartered Thames does flow, 徘徊在独占的泰晤士河边,
A mark in every face I meet, 我看见每个过往的行人
Marks of weakness, marks of woe. 有一张衰弱、痛苦的脸。
In every cry of every man, 每个人的每升呼喊,
In every infant's cry of fear, 每个婴孩害怕的号叫,
In every voice, in every ban, 每句话,每条禁令,
The mind-forged manacles I hear: 都响着心灵铸成的镣铐。
How the chimney-sweeper's cry 多少扫烟囱孩子的喊叫
Every blackening church appals, 震惊了一座座熏黑的教堂,
And the hapless soldier's sigh 不幸兵士的长叹
Runs in blood down palace-walls. 化成鲜血流下了宫墙。
But most, through midnight streets I hear 最怕是深夜的街头
How the youthful harlot's curse 又听年轻妓女的诅咒!
Blasts the new-born infant's tear, 它骇注了初生儿的眼泪,
And blights with plagues the marriage-hearse. 又用瘟疫摧残了婚礼丧车。

摘要:福岛县政府也非常热衷举办奥运训练营,并且希望国外的运动员和粉丝们不要担忧辐射水平,放心地品尝当地产的食物。你知道怎么用英语表达吗?
The baseball and softball games were dropped from the Olympic program after 2008, but are tipped to be voted back in by the International Olympic Committee next year, given their popularity in Japan.
"If baseball and softball return to the Olympics, and preliminary games are played outside Tokyo, then we hope to be able to stage games," an official said. "We are still in the process of recovery from the disaster and it would be a dream to have world-class athletes play here."
Fukushima Prefecture is also keen on holding Olympic training camps and wants overseas athletes and fans to eat locally produced food, despite concerns over radiation levels.
棒球和垒球在2008年之后就退出了奥运会项目,但考虑到这两项运动在日本的流行程度,有望在明年通过奥组委的投票重回奥运大家庭。
一位官员说道,“如果棒球和垒球重回奧林匹克并旦初赛不在东京举办,那么我们就有希望能够举办赛事。因为我们仍然处在灾难的恢复期,能够让世界级的运动员在这里比赛是我们的梦想。”
福岛县政府也非常热衷举办奥运训练营,并且希望国外的运动员和粉丝们不要担忧辐射水平,放心地品尝当地产的食物。
文中的Olympic training camp就是“奥运训练营”的意思,其中camp作名词,意为“营地,野营”,如:summer camp (夏令营),army camp (军营),需要注意的是,“去宿营”表达为go camping而不是go to camp。
第二段中的preliminary是形容词,意为“初级的,预备的”,如:Our team got beaten in the preliminary rounds of the competition.(我们队在这次比赛的预赛中遭淘汰。

伦敦(London),是大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国(简称英国)首都,欧洲最大的城市。与美国纽约并列世界上最大的金融中心。伦敦位于英格兰东南部的平原上,跨泰晤士河。16世纪后,随着大英帝国的快速崛起,伦敦的规模也高速扩大。伦敦是英国的政治、经济、文化、金融中心和世界著名的旅游胜地,有数量众多的名胜景点与博物馆。伦敦是多元化的大都市,居民来自世界各地,一座种族、宗教与文化的大熔炉城市。使用的语言超过300多种。下面来介绍一下伦敦。
Not much is known about the earliest London Bridge although it's location is thought to be near the present one. The second bridge a wooden one existing in Saxon times seems to have given rise to the nursery rhyme 'London Bridge is falling down' which it did in 1014. In 1176 the first stone bridge was constructed. Houses sprung up on both sides of the bridge and stood until it was pulled down in 1831, making way for a more elegant, classic structure. This bridge was replaced in 1967 as it could no longer cope with the amount of traffic. The present London Bridge is more 100 feet wide.
英国伦敦
The London Bridge preceding the current one was bought by the McCulloch Oil Corporation of California, which reconstructed it at Lake Havasu City, in a corner of America's Arizona Desert. Rumour has it that McCulloch's thought they were buying the much more spectacular Tower Bridge.
The Construction of Tower Bridge began in 1885 and it was opened 9yrs later by Edward VII the then Prince of Wales, Amidst pomp and ceremony. It is the only bridge in London that can be raised to allow ships to pass. Since the Thames is no longer used much as a trade and shipping route, the complex lifting mechanism is only used 4 or 5 times a week. The Tower bridge is often mistaken for London Bridge which is dull in comparison.
London, the capital of British is a famous city with a long history and colorful cultures. There are some great wonders in London, such as Buckingham Palace, the British Museum, Big Ben, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, Stonehenge, and so on. They are so wonderful and great.
伦敦是英国的首都,是一个具有悠久的历史和丰富多彩文化的著名的城市。伦敦有许多名胜古迹,如白金汉宫,大英博物馆,大本钟,伦敦桥,伦敦塔,巨石阵等等。他们是如此的奇妙和伟大。
Buckingham Palace is the place where the Queen lives in. There you can always see the guards.
白金汉宫是女王生活的地方。你总是可以看到警卫。
The British Museum is a museum with human history and culture. There is a great deal of objects from all over the world in it.
大英博物馆是一座收藏着人类历史和文化的博物馆。在里面有大量来自世界各地的物品。
Big Ben is one of the most famous clocks in the world. It's the symbol of London. It's 150 years old and it still works well.
大本钟是世界上最著名的钟。它是伦敦的象征。它已经150岁了,却仍然能正常工作。
Tower Bridge is a famous bridge over the River Thames in London. It's close to the tower of London. Every day thousands of people use it to cross the river.
塔桥是横跨伦敦泰晤士河的一座著名的桥。它靠近伦敦塔。每天有成千上万的人用它来过河。
The Tower of London was once a prison for kings, queens and some important people, many of whom were executed here. But now, it's just a historical site. Every day, many people come here and take pictures of it.
伦敦塔曾是国王,皇后,一些重要的人的监狱,他们中的很多人都是在这里处决。但是现在,它只是一个历史古迹。每天有很多人来这里拍照。
Stonehenge dates back to about five thousand years ago. The usage of it still remains a mystery.
巨石阵的历史可以追溯到大约五千年前。它的使用仍然是一个谜。
What interesting sites in London. If I have a chance to go abroad, I'll travel to that city. I am sure I will be joyous there.

看过福尔摩斯小说、电视的童鞋对“苏格兰场”这个名字一定不会陌生,大侦探福尔摩斯的警察朋友就是为苏格兰场效力的。所以,苏格兰场就是英国首都伦敦的警察厅!那么,为什么伦敦的警察厅要叫“苏格兰场”呢?这与苏格兰有什么关系?下面小编来为你揭开谜团。
Scotland Yard is a metonym for the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police Service of the British capital, London. The Metropolitan Police Service is responsible for law enforcement within Greater London, excluding the square mile of the City of London, which is covered by the City of London Police. It derives from the location of the original Metropolitan Police headquarters at 4 Whitehall Place, which had a rear entrance on a street called Great Scotland Yard. The Scotland Yard entrance became the public entrance to the police station. Over time, the street and the Metropolitan Police becamesynonymous. The Metropolitan Police moved away from Scotland Yard in 1890, and the name "New Scotland Yard" was adopted for the new headquarters.
苏格兰场是对英国首都伦敦警察厅总部的代称。苏格兰场负责维持包括整个大伦敦地区的公共治安及交通秩序,但伦敦市除外,该区的警务由伦敦市警察管辖。“苏格兰场”的得名,源于警察厅的旧址白厅广场4号。据说,当时警察厅在此处设有一扇后门,正对着一处名为“大苏格兰场”的地方(小编注:Great Scotland Yard,该处可能是苏格兰和英格兰合并组成联合王国之前,苏格兰国王访问英格兰时使用的宫殿或苏格兰王国驻英格兰大使使用的宫殿)。此后,这扇门就成了警察厅的公共入口。久而久之,“苏格兰场”就成了伦敦警察厅的代名词。1890年,警察厅搬离苏格兰场地区,现在所说的“新苏格兰场”也就是对警察厅新总部的别称。
Scotland Yard has become internationally famous as a symbol of policing, and detectives from Scotland Yard feature in many works of crime fiction. They were frequent allies, and sometimes antagonists, of Sherlock Holmes in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous stories. It is also referred to in Around the World in Eighty Days. In the James Bond novels and short stories, Assistant Commissioner Sir Ronald Vallance is a recurring fictional character who works for Scotland Yard.
作为警察的代名词,苏格兰场出现在许多侦探探案类小说中,由此而蜚声国际。在柯南-道尔的小说中,苏格兰场的警察们与大侦探福尔摩斯的关系也是亦敌亦友。苏格兰场在小说《环游世界80天》中也有出现。在邦德系列小说中,助理局长罗尼-瓦蓝斯多次出场,他也是为苏格兰场效力的。
苏格兰场本身既不是位于苏格兰,也更不负责苏格兰的警备。苏格兰场这个名字源自1829年,当时首都苏格兰场总部警务处位处旧苏格兰王室宫殿(1603年,伊丽莎白一世逝世,指定继承人正是苏格兰在位国王詹姆斯六世。英格兰王国与苏格兰王国从此形成共主联邦,虽然仍然是两个独立国家,但是元首和最高权力的掌控却是同一个人。)的遗迹,因而得名。1890年曾迁至维多利亚堤区(Victoria Embankment,离今天英国国防部不远),1967年迁至现址。这两个新地址也被称为“新苏格兰场”。最老的苏格兰场后来被英国陆军占用,成为陆军的征募所和皇家军警的总部。今天原来的建筑已经所剩无几。一座古建筑是今天的一个警察站。1890年的新苏格兰场原址的一部分也依然是警察站。

John is toying with his cell phone after class.
H: Have you downloaded something new into your cell phone?
H:你在你的手机上下载新的东西了吗?
J: No, I'm reading news on line. I’ve been following the news about London Olympic Games.
J:没有,我在在线阅读新闻。我一直在关注有关伦敦奧运会的新闻。
H: Anything new? Has the Olympic mascot or theme song been decided?
H:有什么新的消息吗?奥运会的吉祥物或主题曲定了设有?
J: It’s still too early. Did you watch Beijing Olympics?
J:现在还太早。你看北京奧运会了没有?
H: Certainly. I went to watch gymnastics competition, also increased.
H:当然看了。我去看了体操比赛。我的奧运知识也增加了。
J: Do you know who’s the first modem Olympic champion?
J:你知道谁是现代奧运会的第一个冠军吗?
H: I know the father of modern Olympic Games. It's Pierre de Coubertin. His remarkable contribution led to the first Modern Olympic Games in Athens in 1896.
H:我知道现代奧运会之父是谁。他是皮埃尔*德?顾拜旦。他的突出贡献促成了第一 届现代奧林匹克运动会于1896年在雅典举办。
J : You didn’t answer my question.
J:你还没回答我的问题。
H: I don’t know, to tell you the truth.
H:说实话,我不知道谁是现代奥运会的第一个冠军。
J: It’s James Connolly. He was a Harvard student.
J:是詹姆斯?康诺利,他是哈佛学生。
H: Oh, he graduated from Harvard.
H:哦,他毕业于哈佛呀。
J: No, he didn’t graduate from Harvard. He didn’t finish college.
J:不,他设有从哈佛毕业,他设有完成学业。
H: How come? What happened?
H:为什么?发生什么事了?
J: It's unclear what really happened. The story is like this: Connolly decided to participated in the first modem Olympics Games. But the Gaines in 1896, unlike today when they are held during summer break, were scheduled for April 6 to 15, so Connolly had to ask for a leave of absence to the College, and was denied. The only choice would be to resign and make a reapplication to the College.
J:不清楚到底是怎么回事。据说是这样的:康诺利决定 参加第一届现代奧运会,但是和现在的夏季奧运会不 同,1896年的奧运会安排在4月6号~15号(4月 正是新学期刚开始,需要好好上课的时间)。因此康 诺利必须向学院提出修学申请,但被拒绝了。他唯一 的选择是要退学并重新申请入学。
H: Why? Isn’t it a good thing for a student to participate in such big Games?
H:为什么?学生参加这种大型的运动会不是件好事吗?
J: It’s not unreasonable for the College to make such a decision. At that time, the traffic was not so convenient as it is today. It would take about half a month to travel from the U.S. to Athens. To keep in good form, Connolly had to set out earlier. Counting in the time spent in Athens and traveling back, it would take nearly a whole semester. The College couldn’t accept it.
J:哈佛大学做这样的决定不是没有道理的。当时的交 通不像今天这么便利,从美国到雅典要花费大约半个月的时间。为了保持好一点的竞技状态,康诺利还要提前出发。一去一回,加上 中间的比赛时间,这个学期就算是基本报废了。学院肯定不同意。
H: What’s Connolly’s response?
H:康诺利呢,他什么反应?
J: Connolly replied : “ I am not resigning and I’m not making application to re-enter. Vm getting through with Harvard right now. Good day!”
J:康诺利回答说:"我不是在退学,也不会再申请入学。我的哈佛生涯到此为止。 拜拜! ’’
H: He’s really pissed off. But I have a doubt about it. Even if Connolly would be absent for a semester, couldn’t the College give him another chance? Harvard values athletics, doesn’t it?
H:他确实被惹怒了。但是我有一点怀疑,即使康诺利休学一个学期,学院就不能再 给他一次机会吗?哈佛很重视体育运动的,不是吗?
J: Perhaps not at that time. The then President Eliot was barely tolerant of intercollegiate competition, and certainly had no desire to propagate an image of Harvard athleticism overseas.
J:或许当时不是吧。当时的校长艾略特不能容忍大学间的竞争,所以当然他也不想 在国外树立哈佛崇尚运动的形象了。
H: Unbelievable. Why did he hate sports so much?
H:难以置信。他为什么那么讨厌运动呢?
J: Eliot had nothing against track and field sports in particular. In fact, he was a strong advocate of physical fitness. He just didn’t like those types of competition.
J:艾略特也不是讨厌田径运动。事实上,他非常提倡身体健康。他只是不喜欢这种 类型的比赛而已。
H: Poor Connolly had no other choice but to resign in order to join in the Gaines. But had he not do so, the sports circle would have lost an excellent athlete.
H:为了参加奧运会,可怜的康诺利没有其他选择只有退学。但是要不是他这样做, 体育界就失去了 一名优秀的运动员。
J: On the other hand, because he did so, Harvard lost an excellent athlete, who tarne out to be the first modem Olympic champion.
J:另一方面,他的做法使得哈佛失去了_名优秀的运动员,而且是现代奧运会的第 一个冠军。
H: Did Harvard regret its decision later on?
H:后来哈佛大学对当初的决定后悔过设有?
J: Yes. In 1949,Connolly was offered an honorary doctorate by Harvard University, but he turned down. He never returned to Harvard.
J:后悔了。1949年,哈佛大学授予康诺利荣誉博士学位,但他拒绝了。康诺利再 也没有回过哈佛大学。
H: Perhaps he thought he was deeply hurt by Harvard University.
H:或许他感觉自己被哈佛大学深深伤害了。

In preparation for the biggest sporting event tohave hit London in many years, the city is gettinginventive。
多年来,为了准备伦敦要举办的最大的体育赛事,这座城市正变得越来越富有创造力。
Bin men and road sweepers are being turned intotour guides, trained to provide customer service andto offer pocket-sized maps to visitors who have noidea where they are。
垃圾清理工和马路清洁工正变身导游,为进行客户服务和给迷路的游客提供袖珍地图而接受训练。
"Our street sweepers and bin men are some of the friendliest faces in town. So much so,that as well as keeping the city clean, they often become the unofficial tour guides for London,"said councilor Ed Argar, cabinet member for city management and transport。
“我们的马路清洁工和垃圾清理工是城里最友好的人群之一。他们简直太友好了,除了保持城市的整洁之外,他们还经常变为伦敦的非正式导游,” 负责城市管理和交通的内阁成员Ed Argar议员说。
And one entrepreneurial cabbie is hoping to offset a loss in earnings due to Olympic-oriented traffic restrictions, by converting his taxi into a hotel。
一位自主创业的出租车司机,希望通过将他的出租车改装成旅馆,来弥补一下因奥运会造成的交通管制而导致的收入方面的损失。
David Weekes, a full-time cab driver has transformed his iconic black cab into a hotel forone, available to rent for £50 (US$78.50) a night。
David Weekes是一名全职出租车司机,他已经将自己那辆标志性的黑色出租车改装成了一件单人旅馆,每晚50英镑(折合78.5美元)就可以租到。
The taxi comes with a "memory foam" mattress, pillow, duvet, a bedside lamp and aPaddington Bear teddy。
这辆出租车配有“记忆海绵”床垫、枕头、羽绒被、床头灯和帕丁顿泰迪熊。
It also offers a solar-powered fridge, a radio, an iPad and camping chairs and a portabletable on request。
根据顾客的要求,它还可以提供太阳能电冰箱、收音机、苹果平板电脑、轻便折叠椅和便携桌子。
But Weekes does have two rules: no smoking and no pets。
但是Weekes定了两条规矩:不准吸烟和携带宠物。
Weekes hopes to make "a few hundred pounds" from his initiative, and says it offersvisitors a true local perspective on London。
Weekes希望能够从他的这个计划中赚个“几百英镑”,还说它能够给游客们提供一个真实的当地视角来看伦敦。
"I'm offering the authentic London experience -- I know this city like the back of my handso I can give you knowledge that you may not get from staying in a normal hotel room. It’sdefinitely different -- not many people can claim to have slept overnight in a black cab," hesaid。
“我正为人们提供真正的伦敦体验——我很熟悉这座城市,如同熟悉我自己的手背一样,因此我能给你一些或许你住在普通宾馆不会了解的知识。这确实与众不同:没有多少人有曾在黑色出租车里过夜的经历,”他说。
Guests will be left alone in the evenings and will have to tidy up in the morning so Weekescan go to work。
旅客们晚上会独自呆在车里,早上起来后则需要稍稍整理一下,以便Weekes可以开始工作。
The cab can be left anywhere the guest wishes, as long as it is a legally permissible area.Outside Weekes' house is also a possible option, where the bathroom would be easilyaccessible。
这辆出租车可以根据客人的意愿停在任何地方,只要是合法停车区域即可。停在Weekes的家门外也是一种选择,这样去洗手间就很方便了。
