新学期一开学,小猪老师的室友——某失恋死宅(死宅的故事)就被一门经典力学专业课折磨的死去活来。某日,小猪老师完成5杀壮举后,显出极高兴的样子,将两个猪蹄的长指甲敲着鼠标,转头说,“死宅呀!……经典有两样写法,你知道么?
经典 1:classic (adj.),用来形容经过时间考验流传下来的最高品质的事物。例如外国名著、经典老歌什么的,都可以用classic来形容。例如:
Jane Austen is the author of the classic novel Pride and Prejudice. 经典小说《傲慢与偏见》的作者是简·奥斯丁。
经典 2:classical (adj.),是现代(modern)的反义词,通常用来形容过去的传统理论。例如经典力学(classical mechanics)、经典经济学(classical economics)等词就必须用classical,不能用classic。
小窍门:Classical强调“过去的、传统的,classic则强调“优秀的。当你分不清经典就是classic还是classical的时候,可以试试如果把“经典换成“古典后句子是否通顺,如果可以那就是classical,否则就用classic。
