英语学习贴(提问题帖)。。。长期更新
刚刚从一个网页看到一句:I need a twelve eggs, 这里a怎么理解啊。这句配了一幅图，图上是一盒鸡蛋，里面有12个。所以翻译出来是不是我需要12个盒装鸡蛋? 嗯，a表示一盒。不过他这里为啥不用dozen{:8_485:} aua 发表于 2014-2-15 23:07
嗯，a表示一盒。不过他这里为啥不用dozen
可能是想用另一种方式表达吧。dozen在学习的过程中才知道的，另外还学到了 a half dozen.
应该是我需要一个装有12支蛋的盒装蛋。 大家好，好久没来更新了，先祝大家母亲节快乐。
这回我在网上看了一篇关于笔的文章，里面有许多不理解的地方，希望大家能给个建议。
我把文章复制到这，不理解的我会用红色标记的。
Suppose someone gave you a pen - a sealed, solid-colored pen.
You couldn't see how much ink it had. It might run dry after the first few tentative（试验性的） words or last just long enough to create a masterpiece(or several) that would last forever and make a difference in the scheme of things. You don't know before you begin. Under the rules of the game, you really never know. You have to take a chance!
And of what would you write: Of love? Hate? Fun? Misery? Life? Death? Nothing? Everything? Would you write to please just yourself? Or others? Or yourself by writing for others? Would your strokes be tremblingly timid or brilliantly bold? Fancy with a flourish or plain? Would you even write? Once you have the pen, no rule says you have to write. Would you sketch? Scribble? Doodle or draw? Would you stay in or on the lines, or see no lines at all, even if they were there? Or are they?
There's a lot to think about here, isn't there?
Now, suppose someone gave you a life...
希望大家踊跃发言。
