英语口语:和茶有关的俚语somebodys cup of tea英国人对茶情有独钟,无论什么饮品都代替不了茶在他们心中的位置。
因此somebodys cup of tea指的就是to be something that one prefers or desires 对某人胃口的东西,使某人感爱好的东西。
例句:Football/Opera/Chemistry is not his cup of tea. 足球/歌剧/化学可不是他的爱好。
This spy novel is just my cup of tea. 这本侦探小说正对我的胃口。
a storm in a tea cup这是18世纪法国哲学家孟德斯鸠的一句名言。
有一次他听说圣马力诺发生了一场.就用了a storm in a tea cup这个比方来形容整个大事。
圣马力诺是欧洲最小的共和国,人口稀有,因此孟德斯鸠认为那里的.整个欧洲局势无关紧要。
If someone exaggerates a problem or makes a small problem seem far greater than it really is, then they are making a storm in a teacup. 顾名思义,“茶杯里的风暴”自然算不得什么大事,所以就被用来表示“小题大做,大惊小怪”的意思。
例句:That couple often quarrel, but it is a storm in a tea cup. 那对夫妻常常吵架,没什么大惊小怪的。
Storm in a teacup是大惊小怪的英式英语表达,美式英语的说法是tempest in a teapot。
此外,大惊小怪相像的说法还有:a storm in a cream-bowl,a tempest in a glass of water,a storm in a hand-wash basin.例句:Our bloody-minded foreman wouldnt give us a tea break. 我们残忍的工头不给我们工间茶休的时间。
