倒計(jì)時(shí)在英語(yǔ)中可以用“countdown”來(lái)表達(dá)。
Count means to say numbers one after the other in order, or to calculate the number of people or things in a group. Count在英語(yǔ)中意為數(shù)數(shù),計(jì)數(shù)。Countdown可以理解為倒著數(shù),自然就是倒計(jì)時(shí)的意思啦。The countdown to… 意為… 的倒計(jì)時(shí)。
All the schools will begin their final countdown soon.所有的學(xué)校將很快開(kāi)始最后的倒計(jì)時(shí)。
Students are more nervous than ever before the countdown to college entrance examination.在高考倒計(jì)時(shí)前,學(xué)生們比平時(shí)緊張得多。
了解了倒計(jì)時(shí)的說(shuō)法,咱們來(lái)看看常說(shuō)的“高考”用英語(yǔ)是如何表達(dá)的。
高考也就是大學(xué)入學(xué)考試,我們可以說(shuō)成college entrance examination. Entrance 意為入口,進(jìn)入。除此之外,拼音”gaokao”也已經(jīng)被收錄至最新版牛津詞典,我們可以用簡(jiǎn)單的拼音來(lái)表達(dá)。
The College Entrance Examination is held annually in June in China.中國(guó)每年六月份都會(huì)舉辦一次高考。
Jack studied hard during his middle school and he did a really good job in that year's gaokao.
Jack 在中學(xué)期間努力學(xué)習(xí),那年高考他考得不錯(cuò)。
有關(guān)高考及倒計(jì)時(shí)的說(shuō)法你學(xué)會(huì)了嗎?最后祝所有即將參加考試的同學(xué)們好運(yùn)!
Good luck to you!
