It's the age of advertisement. The ad companies have acute senses to activate the public to like the products the sports players recommend. If a woman has been acknowledged as the best tennis-player in the world, she can acquire a lot of money from advertisements. Of course, she must pay some additional charges as taxes to the Tax Administration. Usually,the woman will adjust herself to the change of her life and soon she will adapt herself to it. As a sports player, her earnings isn't always adequate to meet her needs. In addition to a beautiful house, she also wants to buy luxury cars. It's normal that a famous sports player's cars add up to five. In addition, some rich sports players liked to buy acres of land as their properties, thus they can have their outdoor activities conveniently. Sometimes some acquaintances of the sports players are popular too because their house are adjacent to the players. Their houses adjoin the players', which make them proud and happy. An adjective for this phenomenon is, “snobbish”.

现在是一个广告的时代。广告公司有敏锐的感觉来刺激公众喜欢运动员推荐的产品。如果一个女子被承认为世界上最棒的网球运动员，那么她可以从广告中获得许多金钱。当然，她必须付一些附加费来向税务部门交税。通常，这个女子会调整她自己来面对生活中的变化，并会很快适应这些变化。作为一个运动员，她的运动收入不足够满足她的需要。除了漂亮的房子之外，她还会想要豪华的车子。一个著名的运动员合计有5部车子是不出奇的。另外，一些有钱的运动员喜欢买几英亩土地作为自己的财产，以便更好地做户外运动。有时候一些运动员的熟人也很受欢迎，因为他们的房子是邻近的。他们的房子毗连，使他们感到骄傲和高兴。形容这种现象的一个形容词就是“势力的”。

It was advisable for an old couple to adopt an orphan, as they had no children of their own. Everything had been fixed in advance. Their kindness was an advantageous condition, which gave them an advantage over other applicants for the adoption of a little boy. The boy grew up quickly under affection, but his behavior was not particularly adult. That was a common mistake among adolescents. Soon, the boy gained admission into the Aesthetic College. The college was affiliated with a famous university. The affair affected all who knew the boy. He won the admiration of people. In the college, the professor he met first was an advocate of truth.

After class, he told them about his adventures in aerospace, and he showed them some aerial photographs. He also took advantage of some advanced instruments to make experiments. His new product was so promising, that his students decided to advertise it for him. The boy enjoyed his study very much.

There was a bill along with the college notice, which upset them. The family was not rich at all; they had no radio, let alone a television. But they went all out to afford the higher education for him. After all, they had only one son. Fortunately, the college made allowances for Steve's situation and awarded him an allowance of five thousand dollars. When everything was all right, Steve went to college. In all, there were 30 students in his class. Steve learned a lot at class. He knew brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. Besides this, he knew sometimes hemp was used to alleviate pain. Also, he could read the Latin alphabet correctly. Steve liked all the subjects but history. He had heard enough such as “Britain in alliance with France once defeated a number of smaller countries.”, “Britain was an ally of America in both World Wars. They were allied countries.”, and so on. But allowing for the graduation, he still got A in every subject. The teacher allocated duties to all the students evry Monday, and Steve always finished his part first. So the teacher alleged that Steve was the most promising student in the class.

A chess player must have an analytical mind. Mr. Smiths lived on his annual pension . Apart from that, he had no private income. His wife, Mrs. Smiths was an announcer on TV broadcast. And she once helped us to fix the television antenna. Their daughter, June, was as lovely as an angel. Once she hurt her left ankle when her parents were not at home. My wife sent her to the hospital in a hurry. All of us often sat side-by-side and chatted one with another. Sometimes we would discuss some ancient history. Sometimes we would play games one after another. On their 10th anniversary of marriage, the Smiths received an anonymous letter and then made a decision. That is, they would start on Antarctic expedition. Since they anticipated that they might meet many difficulties, they would leave June with us. June was annoyed at their decision. So her father comforted her, “View it at a difficult angle. You needn't have anxiety about that. I was anything but a h ero. Anyhow we just want to realize our dreams since childhood. ” Finally, June accepted that.

Harry joined the army and became a member of battery. It's wintertime. The trees were bare because of the cold. The war ended nearby a bay. The battery bought a barrel of beer to celebrate their victory. The salesman refused to bargain over the price, but he gave them some coffee beans free. After lunch, the game began with a baseball match on basis of friendship. A batch of soldiers joined this. Beginners would feel it difficult to play. But Harry did it well. In fact, he wanted to play tennis with his new tennis bat. At that night, the strong wind unroofed the barn and a dog barked. So the battery found a captive was gone. The captive had a beard and it was said that he was a beast. No one expected this beforehand. Harry rode on a horse to purse him. The horse ran over the barrier easily. He stopped in front of the basement of a building. He took out a torch but it was useless, for the battery had run down. Harry went down. The bats flew everywhere. Finally he tried his best to catch the captive. He said to him, "On behalf of my battery, I arrest you!"

The government decided to build a bridge between a bleak island and downtown. Several companies bid for the

contract. And one of them won. The workers stood on board, accepting the blessing from the priest. He bid them good luck. It?s springtime. Flowers were blooming (blossoming) all over the island. The engineer who took charge of the team was Dan. He wasn?t int erested in biology so he chose technology. After they arrived, Dan took out a blank sheet of paper to calculate the expense. It would cost them more than one billion dollars to complete the project. The first work was to move a big rock. The tools were too blunt, so they decided to blast it. A bold worker boasted that he could do it well. But he made an awful blunder. The trees around the rock caught fire suddenly. The workers were unable to control the blaze. It?s a bloody accident that caused five people to be injured, including Dan. Dan bound the cloth around his head to stop bleeding. Then he took some bitter pills. After that, he drank some blend of whisky and wine together with some biscuits. The worker blushed when he saw Dan in the boiler room. But D an didn?t scold him. Instead, they needed a bolt to fit the valve. According to a biography about Dan, we know finally they completed the project successfully.

Since last year, the agriculture in this village had boomed. The boughs of trees were loaded with fruit. The workers worked hard and got bonuses. John was one of them. His neighbor, Mrs. Morris, had a son who walked with the help of a brace. Even though, the boy liked to bounce up and down. The friendship formed a friendly bond between the two families. They?d like to discuss something like public bond sometimes. One day, when John was working, Mrs. Morris called him from a telephone booth. She was crying, “My son fell into the river! Please save him!” It sounded like a bomb exploding in John?s heart. He rushed to the bank. He was bound to find the boy. The river formed the boundary between the two countries. To

pass across the border, one must go through customs. “Brace yourself for the danger! ” some boring people tried to boycott his action. But John took off his boots and dived into the river. He showed great bravery in saving th drowning child and he succeeded. He held the boy to his bosom and went back. His dog came bounding to meet him. Mrs. Morris bowed as she appreciated him so m uch. She took out a brass box, in which there was a bottle of brandy made in France. It?s one of the most popular brands. It had a regular breadth of its bottom. Then Mrs. Morris bored a hole in the bottle cork to pull it out. After the meal, the mother sa id to the son, “Put the date in brackets on the paper. Do remember today, my boy.”

It was a nice night. Stars were billiant in the clear night sky. A breeze blew over the garden. We just had chicken breast for supper. I was telling my families about my travel when Bill broke in with a story of his. He was sorry to arrive late because his car broke down. So he had to ride on a horse. Though his horse was of the best breed he had ever bred., the hundreds of miles' run left Bill out of breath. He pulled the brim of his hat down over his eyes then began. "A man loved a girl very much. On May 1,she would be his bride. But he was put into prison and her family broke off relations with him. He was locked at a room where the window was bricked up. On the last day of April, the man bribed a policeman to let him go free. Next, he and the other criminals broke into the armory and carried off 20 rifles. So a combat broke out unavoidably. The police tried to break up the crowd but failed. The criminals had little difficulty in breaking through the pass. They broke away from the prison successfully!... " In brief, the story was exciting. It made all of us catch our breath.

The new buds appeared in the spring. But the storm brought down a number of trees last night. Scientists said that many factors brought about changes in the weather, but they could not bring forward the exact reasons. Constant stress had made our nerves brittle. And the poor aunt fell into a coma. Difficulties could bring out a person?s qualities. Her daughter, Jenny, was a brisk girl. She brought her to life by artificial respiration. Our brows went up in surprise. And Jenny?s composedness brought forth a positive effect. We calmed down and then we cleaned the room with a broom, a mop and a bucket. Suddenly, I noticed there was a bronze sword on the wall. Jenny said she had been to Britain and it was a gift from a British friend. She took out a travel brochure and continued, “Last year I budgeted for all my expenses in the year and I decided to travel. Then I met Mr. Brown. Nazis were brutal during the World War II and he was the only survivor of his family. He cross a brook and avoided the chase. He saw bubbles rise from under the water.. He would never forget that. Later, Mr. Brown got married and brought up two children. Because we communicated well, he gave his favorite sword to me.”

春天新芽绽放。但昨夜暴风雨打倒了许多树。科学家说有许多因素造成天气的变化，但他们没法提出确切的原因。持续的紧张让我们的精神很脆弱。可怜的姑妈昏迷了过去。困难时刻能显示出一个人的最佳品质。她的女儿，珍妮是一个生气勃勃的姑娘。她用人工呼吸使她恢复知觉。我们惊奇地竖起了眉毛。珍妮的镇定产生了积极的影响。我们冷静下来，然后我们用一支扫把、一支拖把和一只水桶来打扫房间。突然，我注意墙上有一把青铜剑。珍妮说她去过英国，那是来自一位英国朋友的礼物。她拿出一本旅游的小册子接着说：“去年我预算了全年的开支，然后决定去旅游。后来我就遇到了布朗先生。二次大战时纳粹非常残忍，她是他们家中唯一的幸存者。他穿过一条小溪才得以躲过追击。他看见气泡从水底冒起。他永远也忘不了那个情形。后来，布朗先生结了婚并且培养了两个孩子。因为我们交流得很好，他把他心爱的剑赠送给了我。”

小学生爱看的英语故事精选【三篇】 "I had another bad dream," she told her fianc e . "It was about you again. You and your ex-girlfriend were kissing. I yelled at you to stop it. You looked right at me, and then you laughed at me! She laughed, too. Then you both went back to kissing. I tried not to watch, but when I covered my eyes, something pulled my hands away. I tried to leave, but my feet were glued to the ground. Finally, I woke up. Of course, it was very difficult to get back to sleep. "I had to drive home from Las Vegas this morning. It's a wonder I didn't crash 50 times. Instead of seeing traffic in front of me, all I saw was you and her. I can't take any more dreams like this. We're going to have to break up. We can be friends, but just friends. That way, I won't be jealous anymore, and I won't have these bad dreams anymore." "Why didn't you call me up and tell me about your dream?" he asked. "They say that the more you talk about bad dreams, the sooner you'll stop having them." She disagreed. She thought that the only solution was to break up and be just friends. She loved him, but these dreams had become so frequent that she was actually afraid to go to sleep. She was losing weight and having stomachaches from the stress. He didn't know what to do. He wanted her to have pleasant dreams. He wanted her to have a life without

美国五十州别称背后的故事

美国五十州别称背后的故事美国地图编者按：美国五十个州都有自己的别称，有的是历史事件的别称，有的是居民特征的别称，有些与太阳有关，有的跟动物有关，有的与植物有关……本文一一为您讲述别称背后的那些故事，让读者更深入的了解美国的文化。阿拉巴马州（Alabama）被称为“狄克西的心脏”（HeartofDixie），因为它就座落在美国南部各州的腹地。“狄克西”（“Dixie“）本身就是美国南部的昵称。当路易斯安那州（Louisiana）（译者注：该州曾是法国领地，后由美国购入）印钞票时，法语表示10（ten）的单词“Deece“（“D-I-X“）也被印到了钞票上。由“Deece“或“D-I-X“演变出了“Dixie“这个词。阿拉斯加州（Alaska）被称为“最后处女地”（LastFrontier）。该州靠近北极圈，是最后被美国探测和定居的州。亚利桑那州（Arizona）别名叫做“大峡谷之州”（GrandCanyon），以其鬼斧神工的峡谷闻名于世，该峡谷位于科罗拉多河畔（ColoradoRiver）。美国南部的阿肯色州（Arkansas）（译者注：克林顿故乡哦）是“机会州”（LandofOpportunity），这个别名是州立法机关选定的。阿肯色州天然资源丰富，现已成为老年人退休的最好去处。加利福尼亚州：在一本流传很广的西班牙书中，一个虚构的、名叫“加利福尼亚（加州）”（California）的岛上遍地黄金。的的确确，在1848年，在真正的加利福尼亚州（California）发现了大量黄金。为此引发了一场淘金热。这场淘金热与美国历史上以往任何一次都不同，它的地点是在“金州（黄金之州，即加州）”（GoldenState）

看故事学英语单词：班门弄斧

看故事学英语单词：班门弄斧【成语来源】 show off before an expert/teach a fish how to swim班门弄斧 Lu Ban (鲁班) was supposed to be a consummate carpenter in ancient times. 古代有一个建筑和雕刻技术非常高超的人，名叫鲁班。 It is said that he once carved a wooden phoenix that was so lifelike that it actually flew in the sky for three days. 传说他曾用木头制作了一只五彩斑斓的凤凰，能够在空中飞翔三天不掉下来。 Thus it was considered the height of folly to show off one's skill with an axe in front of Lu Ban. 谁敢在鲁班门前卖弄使用斧子的技术，也就是说，想在大行家面前显示自的本领，这种太不谦虚的可笑行为，就叫做“班门弄斧”( 这句成语有时也用作自谦之词，表示自己不敢在行家面前卖弄自己的小本领)。【成语活用】 I'm making a fool of myself trying to show off before an expert like you. 在你面前班门弄斧，太不好意思了。【文化链接】 “班门弄斧”的英文表达，常用“to teach a fish how to swim”，也就是说“去教一条鱼怎么游泳”，鱼本来就会游泳，怎么还用人来教呢?所以英语中要表示一个人“班门弄斧”做无用的行为的时候，就会用“to teach a fish how to swim”。举例来说：

英语单词背后的故事资料

英语单词背后的故事像汉字一样，每个英文单词都有渊源，不过有些英文可能连老外都说不出个所以然来。比如hello，是在人们开始打电话后形成的招呼用语；sandwich（三明治）是从Sandwich爵士的名字来的，因为他喜欢在赌桌前吃夹肉面包。还有一些单词有着美丽的故事，但可惜，实际并不是那样。下面一起来学习几个单词吧！ 1、Kangaroo（袋鼠）单词渊源的故事总是很好听，比如这个：当几百年前库克船长来到澳大利亚，他看到一些长相奇怪的动物总是跳来跳去的，他就去问当地的土著，这些动物是什么。他听他们说“kangaroo——抗个褥”。他又问别的土著，答案一样，于是他就把袋鼠称为：kangaroo。后来有人说，kangaroo在土语里实际上是“我听不懂”，那些土人是在解释他们听不懂船长问什么。这个传说流传了几百年，直到1970年，一个学者终于在澳洲找到了真正的土著，他惊奇的发现，在这里，袋鼠就是叫：kangaroo 2、SOS SOS是世界通用的呼救代码，在莫尔斯代码中，由三短、三长、三短表示。看上去像是...---... 这就是SOS，人们一般觉得SOS意思是：save our ship（救我们的船）或者save our souls （救命）。但是实际上，SOS没有任何单词意义。当初德国人只是觉得这个代码和一般的不同，显得比较突出，而且也很好记忆而已。 3、OK 这个词认得吧，OK？人们已经习惯了总是挂在口边。你知道OK的来历么？最通常的故事是：OK是Oll Korrect的字头，据说当初安杜鲁杰克逊总统不大会拼写，于是他就把All Correct（全部正确）写成了OK。还有个说法OK的意思是zero killed（零伤亡），在第一次世界大战中经常用到。实际上OK来自于一个叫O.K.的俱乐部，俱乐部成员都支持民主党的马丁布伦在1840年竞选连任。俱乐部的绰号是：Old Kinderhook（布伦的出生地地名），缩写成O.K. Club。他们的口号是：OK就是好！OK就是正确！一来二去的，OK就成了“好”和“正确”的意思了。 4、Academy 专科院校；军事学院据说古时候有一个名叫海伦的斯巴达姑娘，被一个传奇式的英雄人物忒修斯（Theseus）劫去，海伦的两位孪生哥哥卡斯托耳（Castor）和波吕丢刻斯（Polydeuces）——Castor和Pollux现在是双子星座的两颗明星——四处寻找他们的妹妹，然而没有找到，最后他们遇到了一位农夫，名叫阿卡得摩斯（Akademos）,他提供了劫持人和被劫人的下落。作为对农夫有这样高的警惕性的答谢，诸神永远守护着阿卡得摩斯的园林。这是希腊神话中的一篇有名的故事。后来，大哲学家柏拉图就在这座园林里授课，于是这座园林就根据阿卡得摩斯的名字被叫做academeia。柏拉图死后许多年，他的学生和信徒们仍在这时举行学术讨论。当然他却为后提供了academy这个意味着学习场所的词。

串词编故事

1、面试题：请用“黄山水浒英雄发展”四个词编一则故事，务必发人深省。参考答案：网友长夜未央：安徽是中部重省之一，而黄山又是安徽的重要旅游资源。改革开放以来，安徽取得了重大发展，黄山的旅游发展也是越来越好，但在形势大好中我们发现，黄山的旅游，其实还有可发展的潜力。正如我们的浙江横店影视城，因为电视剧水浒传而闻名遐迩，水浒传中英雄人物众多，形态各异，但组合起来却创造了文化旅游的盛况。这也是黄山可以借鉴的地方，在风景游的基础上，可以整合人文资源，形成一些文化景观，加深黄山旅游资源的城市，打造安徽最有底蕴旅游区，从而为安徽在中部崛起中占据有利地位。网友 gwyhl ：老家是黄山的张华是国家广电局一名新入职的公务员，上班的第一天，他感到一切都很新鲜，同事们听说他这次考的分最高，都向他投来羡慕的目光，张华感觉自己就象是水浒中的英雄一样，不过领导的一席话让张华冷静了下来，“公务员的工作看似平淡，却需要有很强的综合素质，你这次考得不错，不过千万不能骄傲、自满，要老实做人，认真做事，单位的发展不是靠某一个人，大家齐心协力才能搞好”张华决心从现在起，把过去的成绩都忘记，重新开始新的征程，向做一名优秀公务员的方向大步前进。网友 xuezhu：黄山是著名的旅游胜地，以景色绝佳见长，最近，当地举行了评水浒，论英雄的旅游活动，在攀登黄山的过程中，游人在游览名胜的同时还可以积极参与竞争夺取大奖。引起了很大的反响，也为当地旅游带来了更多的人群。当地政府坚持科学发展，在山水之间加入活生生的文化竞赛，这也是对旅游业发展道路的又一次有效的尝试。网友 xizizhang：经过自己的努力，小张考上了我国中部重省安徽的公务员。小张是山东人，对黄山的魅力早有耳闻。周末的时候和单位同事一起去黄山风景区游玩，欣赏着黄山的美丽景色，小张想黄山是安徽重要的旅游资源，以其独特的自然景色闻名天下，如果再开发出一些人文景观岂不是锦上添花，就像家乡的水泊梁山一样，美丽的梁山加上水浒中一百单八将的英雄传说，使得梁山风景区吸引着国内外游客络绎不绝的前来旅游。途中和同事们说了这个建议，大家都觉得很好，七嘴八舌地集思广益，终于想出一个方案来。后来他们想黄山风景区的管理部门反映了这个想法并提出了这个方案。黄山风景区的领导高度重视，表示要认真研究，实现黄山风景区的又好又快发展。通过这件事新入职的公务员小张感触颇多，觉得作为一名公务员要时刻留心，做一个有心人，为我省经济的跨越发展做出自己的贡献。 2、请用如下几个词组织一个故事：旅游，促销，儿童，绿色，实惠。要求：所给出的词都要用上，顺序可以调整。

英语单词编故事方法及词汇

1，在抽题准备时间，一定要首先在头脑中形成画面，把他们进行串联，要使用自己的常用句型，There be 和it is 句型也相当有魅力，然后找自己事先准备的万用句型进行套用，再添加上自己的随性编写的一些语言，然后组织在一起，将单词变成句子的填词游戏。 2，如果遇到不会的单词，首先根据单词的样子朗读出其声音，然后将这个单词作为人名或者动物的名字进行使用。 3，无论准备的如何，现场要放开，声音要大，语言要流畅，表情要丰富，有些语法错误是没有关系的。其次，不要讲得太快，一边讲，以便思考，忘记了可以随性编下，然后跳到后面的句子。强调开头几句。不一定要声音很大，可以渐渐增强或者减弱。一次演讲中，完全相同的手势不要重复两次以上。避免怯场，首先把观众和评委都相像成你的朋友，你的朋友会支持你，喜欢你。小学组编故事参考单词 1.

高中英语词汇——看故事记单词（十二） The digest of the novel included the most exciting scenes. Several witnesses saw a UFO! It looked like a huge disc. The dimension of the UFO was 6 feet high, 15 feet in diameter. It gave off diffused light. The light was too dim for them to see it clearly. So they touched it, and it diminished! Suddenly the stones on the ground flew about in every direction. One of the witnesses was disabled in this disaster. The UFO took off and soon disappeared in the sky. The police was diplomatic; they found Professor Huggins with the help of the directory. Professor Huggins was diligent enough to obtain a diploma in space research. Now, he was the director of a famous scientific group. On the day they visited him, Professor Huggins was dining. He was dipping the chicken in the butter. The rich food didn't digest easily. The police asked him what differentiated the UFO from the airplane. He answered humorously, "The UFO has diplomatic immunity."The police said his help would certainly make a difference in this affair. Professor Huggins cut off their diffuse speech and agreed to help them. The news diffused rapidly around the country. The bad thing was newspaper accounts of the affair disagreed. This place Professor Huggins in something of a dilemma. To maintain his dignity, he had to do his work under disadvantage. So he kept on working with a digital computer day and night. 这部小说的摘要包含了最精彩的场面。几个目击者看见了UFO!它看起来像一个巨大的圆盘。UFO的尺寸是高6英尺，直径15英尺。它发出四散的光。光线很暗淡，他们看不清楚。于是他们去触摸它，然而它竟缩小了!突然地上的石头朝各个方向乱飞。一个目击者在这场灾难中残废了。UFO起飞并很快消失在空中。警方很有策略，他们通过人名地址簿找到了哈金斯教授。哈金斯教授很勤奋，他获得了太空研究方面的一个文凭。现在，他是一个著名的科学团体的主任。警方拜访哈金斯教授的那天，他正在进餐。只见他拿鸡块蘸黄油吃。这种油腻的食物可不好消化。警方问他如何区分UFO和飞机。他幽默地回答说：“UFO 有外交豁免权。”警方说他的帮助对这事很重要。哈金斯教授打断他们冗长的演讲，答应帮助他们。很快消息在全国传播开来。不好的事情是新闻报道不一致。这使哈金斯教授陷于窘境。为了维护自己的尊严，他不得不在不利条件下工作。于是他夜以继日地用一台数字计算机工作着。 The war field was in dreadful disorder. Several big chimneys discharged smoke. But the soldiers displayed perfect discipline under the fire of the enemy. A soldiers Howard, was asked to send a dispatch to the front line. But he said he lostit. His expression disclosed the truth. The captain saw through his disguise. He discerned that Howard was lying. The captain dismissed the other soldiers then cried at Howard, "Can you discriminate good conduct from bad? Nothing displeased memore than your lie. Your behavior disgusted everybody. You are a dishonor to our regiment. Our regiment was disgraced by your conduct. I have known how to dispose of you. You are dismissed by way of punishment. Bob will displace you. Don't dispute with me. " The captain's words discouraged Howard. And the news of being dismissed dismayed him. He felt the army had discarded him. Though Howard thought he should not be discriminated against, he knew he was deserving. Someother soldiers surrounded to watch. The captain dispersed them. Howard had to go home and then worked at a store selling merchandise of a 20% discount. He was disposed for discharging the cargo. 战场上一片混乱。几个大烟囱在排出浓烟。但是士兵在敌人的炮火之下显示了他们的

英语单词背后的故事及巧记方法

英语单词背后的故事及巧记方法（一）单词背后的故事，让英语学习者更系统地了解到英语习语的来源、意思与用法。当然，要学以致用才能真正掌握这些习语。 1、Chemistry化学古代的炼金术士们总想找到一种方法，将低贱的金属变为金子。现在通过原子裂变的原理表明，他们的这种想法并非一般人们想象的那么愚蠢。古埃及人入侵欧洲后，将他们所研究的炼金术，连同其命名al-kimia一起传入欧洲。后来，这个词变成alchemy，“炼金的人”叫做alchemist，最后成了chemistry，“化学”的概念就是从“炼金术”演变来的。2、Geology地质学 “地质学”是研究形成地球的物质和地壳构造，以探讨地球的形成和发展的科学。Geology 是从希腊语来的，ge即“earth”；-ology，“science”，即研究地球本身的科学。 3、Law法律 “法律”是立法机关制定的、国家政权保证执行的行为规则。Law在古英语中写作lagu，意即“something laid down（规定下来的事情）”。 4、Electricity电古希腊人常用琥珀制作爱情护符，确信戴着这种护符的人可以引来爱人。他们发现，磨擦琥珀可以吸引羽毛、线头等小东西，磨擦时会放出火花。他们就把这种磨擦起电的现象叫做elektron.来自希腊语elektor，意即“发光的太阳”，进入拉丁语后写作electrum.英语演

变为electricity。 5、Atom原子古希腊人认为，特质是不可能无限止地分割下去的，越分越小，最后小到不可再分。他们把“原子”叫做atomos：a即“not”；tomos ，“cut”意即“不能再分割”以后这个词在英语中演变为atom.尽管后来发现“原子”并非“不可再分割”，然而约定俗成，“原子”的名字仍然以atom流传下来。 6、Uranium铀 “铀”是一种放射性金属元素，化学符号为U，主要用来产生原子能。著名的物理学家居里夫人曾用铀作实验，发现了放射现象。 Uranium这个词是从希腊神话中一位神的名字来的。1781年，英籍德国天文学家赫瑟尔（Sir William Herschel）发现了颗尚未被人们发现的行星，于是他就借用了希腊神话中“天王”Ouranos的名字，命名这颗行星为Uranus.即“天王星”。8年后，德国化学家Kloproth 发现了第92种元素。为了纪念赫瑟尔和他的行星，他命名这种元素为uranium，我们简译成“铀”。 7、X-ray X射线 X射线，又叫X光，或音译为“爱克司光”，是德国物理学家伦琴（Wilhelm Konrad von Roentgen）发现的，因而也叫“伦琴射线”。 1895年的一天，伦琴正用一个真空管作气体导电实验，突然发现这种射线穿透了普通光
