1. The "First Thanksgiving"----英語(yǔ) 感恩節(jié) 關(guān)于感恩節(jié)的一些詞匯 Talk Turkey: 打開(kāi)窗戶說(shuō)亮話,說(shuō)實(shí)在的

相傳在北美殖民時(shí)期,一個(gè)白人和一個(gè)黑人去打獵,事先說(shuō)好了平分打到的獵物.結(jié)果一天下來(lái)只打到一只火雞和一只鷓鴣.白人心里想要火雞,但又不敢直接說(shuō),于是對(duì)印第安人說(shuō)"如果你要火雞,我就拿鷓鴣,如果你要鷓鴣,我就拿火雞",印第安人一聽(tīng)就明白了,于是針?shù)h相對(duì)地說(shuō):"你一直在講火雞,現(xiàn)在讓我也講講火雞吧!" 于是talk turkey 演變成"打開(kāi)窗戶說(shuō)亮話,說(shuō)實(shí)在的,坦誠(chéng)地說(shuō)話"的意思了例： 1. If you are willing to talk turkey, the dispute between us can be easily settled.

如果你愿意實(shí)實(shí)在在地說(shuō)話,那么我們之間的爭(zhēng)端就可以很容易地解決.

2. Generally he is an easy-going person, but when it comes to religious belief he talks turkey.

一般來(lái)說(shuō),他是一個(gè)隨和的人,但一談到宗教信仰,他就正經(jīng)起來(lái).
