B.C.与A.D.
B.C.为Before Christ(公元前)的缩写,A.D.表示anno Domini (=in the year of the Lord或 since Christ was born),即"公元"。A.D.用来与B.C.形成对比,出现在正式的史书中,平时一般
不用。B.C.位于年代之后,A.D.在英国英语中位于年代之前:
The mummy of an Egyptian woman who died in 800 B.C. has just had an operation.死于公元前800年的一位埃及妇女的木乃伊刚刚接受了一次手术。
The Romans invaded England in 55 B.C. 公元前55年罗马人入侵了英格兰。
George I died in A.D. 1727. 乔治一世死于公元1727年。
skin可用于指人体的"皮肤",也可以指某人是什么颜色的皮肤。用于表示后一种意义时它与complexion(肤色)可以互换:
Hard resin covered the skin. 皮肤上覆盖着一层硬硬的树脂。
We are wet to the skin. 我们全身湿透了。
He has a dark skin/complexion. 他皮肤黝黑。
leather指"皮革":
Shoes made of real leather have become very expensive. 真皮做的鞋子现在非常贵。
This sofa is made from real leather. 这沙发是真皮的。
wax与candle
wax指各种"蜡",为不可数名词;candle指"蜡烛",为可数名词:
Inside every mummy there is a small wax figure. 每个木乃伊体内都有一个蜡制的小塑像。
All the figures in this shop are made of wax. 这个店里所有的塑像都是蜡制的。
I keep a candle by my bed in case the lights go out suddenly. 我床边总放一枝蜡烛,以防突然停电。
