3 Yang Li 大家好!欢迎收听BBC英语教学的《你问我答》,我是杨莉.这是一档为大家解答英 语疑问的节目.我们非常欢迎大家把自己的问题录音后通过邮箱发送给我们,我们的 邮箱是 questions.chinaelt@bbc.co.uk. 本期节目的问题来自 Cici. 请听她的录音: Question I'm Cici, I'm from Shanghai, China. Look around our house, there are many different furniture. I want to know the names of different furniture, could you explain to me? That's all. Thank you. Yang Li 谢谢 Cici 的提问.这可是个很实用的问题呀!一方面是不知道家具和汉语对应的英文 名称;

另一方面是英国人家里特有的、不为中国人所熟悉的家具和家居用品怎么说. 好吧我们来一次家具盘点.请我的英国同事 Neil 介绍一下他自己家中的家具和家居用 品.Thanks for joining me today, Neil. Neil It's a pleasure. My home is a typical suburban house, with a living room, two bedrooms, a kitchen and a bathroom 他说,"不客气.我的家是个典型的市郊房子,有两个卧室,一个客厅,一个厨房和一 个卫生间". Neil In my living room, I have a fireplace with a marble mantelpiece. There is a large mirror above the fireplace. I have chosen to install a large electric fire in the fireplace, which is the focal point of the room. Arranged around this I have a couple of comfortable sofas, a large coffee table, which I use to dump the bits and pieces of daily life;

anything from books, newspapers, and even, on occasion, my dinner! Q&A of the Week ?British Broadcasting Corporation

3 "在我的客厅里, 有一个壁炉,壁炉架是大理石的, 上方有一个大镜子.我选择安装了一 个电壁炉使之成为客厅的中心点.在壁炉前我摆放了两个适舒的沙发,中间是个 大啡咖大,放零零碎碎的东西,有报纸,书籍,偶尔还有我的晚餐." Neil I also have a wide screen TV, a CD player, a digital radio and my two bookcases of course. I enjoy reading books and listening to music. My old-fashioned standard lamp is in the corner. "我还有宽屏电视,CD播放器、数码收音机,当然还有我的两个书柜.我喜欢读书和 听音乐.墙角儿是个老式台灯." Neil I have two large bedrooms, one with a double bed, the other with a king-size bed and a bunk bed which my nephews use when they come to visit me with their mum and dad! I was able to furnish both rooms with top quality wood furniture, including beautiful wardrobes with a matching dressing table and night tables. "我有两个大卧室,一间卧室里有张双人床,另一间卧室里有一张加大双人床和一张 上下床,我的两个侄子每次和他们父母来看我的时候都用这个上下铺!我给两个房间 里都购置了高质量的实木家具,包括漂亮的衣柜、配套的梳妆台和床头柜." Neil The style of my kitchen is quite modern, it has a solid wood theme for all the cabinets and work tops. As a contrast all my appliances are stainless steel, such as the refrigerator, the oven, the microwave and the kitchen sink. So are all the smaller gadgets such as my kettle, the coffee maker and the food mixer. "我的厨房是现代风格的,实木主题的橱柜和台面.与其形成鲜明对照的是不锈钢的 电器,比如冰箱、烤箱和微波炉以及洗碗池都是不锈钢的.其他小电器,比如热水壶, 啡咖壶和食品搅拌机也都选择了不锈钢材料." Neil My bathroom is a bit small, so I always describe it as 'compact'. Nevertheless, it manages to contain all the usual features, including a really nice shower, bath unit, with a matching basin and toilet, all in a modern style. "我的卫生间有点小, 我称它为"紧凑舒用"吧.不过麻雀虽小五脏俱全,卫生间配 有一套很好的浴缸加淋浴,还有配套的洗手盆和马桶,整体感觉都是现代风格的." Yang Li 好了,听了这些希望你来试试哟,看你能不能把周围的所有家具用英语说出来.还有 困难吗?没关系,我已经预料到了.所以我特意编纂了一个全方位的家具名称列表 a list of some of the most commonly-used furniture and household appliances. 可以下载,收 藏和随时查阅.再次感谢 Cici 的录音提问.希望大家从中获益.感谢收听,我们下次 节目再见!
