   进入7月以来,我国大部分地区出现了高温多雨的天气,有的达到38℃-40℃,北京遭遇近10年来持续时间最长的高温天气。闷热、潮湿的“桑拿天”像一个大蒸房,使人十分难受,很多医院中暑、感冒、腹泻病人急剧增多。


  “桑拿天”是引进的新词,是在“桑拿”的基础上,用隐喻手法再造出来的。桑拿浴的感觉想必大家都知道,所以“桑拿天”就喻指又闷又热,令人浑身汗水外浸的天气,这个比喻十分生动形象吧。“桑拿天”容易造成身体不适,提醒大家要适当采取避暑措施哟。
  那么“桑拿天”用英语怎么说呢?其实非常简单,“桑拿”是sauna,而“桑拿天”就是sauna weather 或者sauna days,用来形容stiflingly hot weather(非常闷热的天气)。
  今天我们讲到了天气,大家知道有个很流行的说法是:中国人见面喜欢问吃饭没,老外见面喜欢谈天气。的确,英语国家的人将谈论天气作为一种打破沉默的方式,人们电话里谈、见了面谈,家人朋友在讨论新鲜事前要谈,同事在开始一天的辛苦工作前要谈,就算是陌生人之间也会谈。所以学会谈论天气的表达,会让你随时随地、跟任何人都能轻松发起谈话哦~下面我们就来学习一下吧!
