雅思听力词汇中的大多数都是大家在日常生活中应用最多的词汇,在这些核心词汇中禁忌语就是一个十分重要的类别。只有听懂了这些禁忌语的真正含义才会理解相关的听力材料,在答题的时候相对顺利些。
雅思核心禁忌语 厕所
在美国一般都叫rest room或bath room或分别叫做 mens room 或 ladies room,不过在飞机上,则叫 lavatory,在军中又叫 latrine。至于 W.C.仍是过去英国人用的,在美国,几乎没有人使用。
雅思核心禁忌语 解小便
最普通的说法是 to urinate,如果去看病,护士为了化验小便,就会给你一个杯子说:「Will you urinate in this cup?」医生或许也会问:「Do you have trouble urinating?」=Do you have difficulty voiding?
此外,还有其他的说法:to piss = to take a piss = to take a leak = to void = to empty。 例如:
I need to piss = I have to take a leak.
How often do you get up at night to void?
此外,john是 bath room 或 toilet 的意思,这通常是指在户外工作场地所使用的临时或流动性厕所。不过也有老外把家里的厕所叫做 john。 例如:
There are several johns in the construction site.
He went to the john a few minutes ago.
The manual labours have to use johns during their working hours.
不过,小孩多半用 to pee 。例如:The boy needs to pee.
然而,「小便检查」又叫做 urine test,因为这里的 urine 是化验的样品。 例如:Do I need a urine test?
注意:to piss off 是片语,又是指对人生气或对事物的不满。不过这是不礼貌的片语,少用为妙。 例如:
He pissed me off. = He made me angry.
He always pisses off the society.
如果「小便」有毛病,也可以告诉医生说:
My urine is cloudy and it smells strong.
I have pus in urine.
I dribble a little urine after I have finished urinating.
I am passing less urine than usual.
雅思核心禁忌语 解大便
一般是用 to makea bowel movement 或 to take a shit。如果看病,医生常问:「Do you have regular bowel movement?」
此外,还有其他的说法: to defecate =to discharge excrement=to take feces 。 例如:
The patient needs to take a shit.
不过,小孩多半是用 to make a poo poo 或 to make a BM. 。 例如:
The boy had a stinky BM.
但是「大便检查」倒叫做 stool exam,因为 stool 也是一种化验的样品。 例如:
The doctor has to exam his stool.
雅思核心禁忌语 放屁
在美语里最常用的是 to expel gas 或 to fart 或 to make gas。 例如:
医生有时问:「How often do you expelgas?」
Is the gas expelled by belching?
He said the more he ate, the more he farted.
He has passed more gas than usual within the last two days.
Be careful not to fart in the public.
至于消化不良,大便不通或拉肚子,也有不同的说法。 例如:
I have an upset stomach. = I have heartburn. = I have indigestion.
注意:Heartburn 是指胃不舒服,不是「心痛」
Something has upset my stomach for two weeks.
He hasconstipation. 或
He has been unusually constipated.或
He is having problem with irregularity.; 或 He has no bowel movement for the past few days.
He has bouts of diarrhea.=He is having trouble with diarrhea.
He can see trace of blood and pus or mucus in his stool
