Hello English learners, I'm here today on a trip to Cambridge, the English town of Cambridge.
英語學習者你們好,我今天來劍橋旅行,英國的劍橋鎮。
So I'm going to show you around some of the streets here, show you some of the history.
所以,我將帶你參觀這裡的一些街道,向你展示一些歷史。
There's kind of a wealth of things to do here. That means lots of things to do for tourists and people who live here. So I'm going to show you around and kind of give a bit of voiceover as I do. So hopefully you can see what it's like, it's very beautiful, and also kind of learn some new vocabulary and expressions along the way hopefully as well.
這裡有豐富的活動可做。這意味著遊客和住在這裡的人都有很多事情可做。是以,我將帶你們四處轉轉,併為你們配音。希望你們能看到這裡的美景,同時也能順便學習一些新的詞彙和表達方式。
So I hope you enjoy the video and let's have a walk around some of the streets now and see what we can find. So this is the Cambridge market, right in the centre of Cambridge there's a market that sells lots of types of food and fresh produce and it also has like lots of different stalls with food from all around the world. So lots of kind of international cuisines here and as you can see there are lots of people around me milling about, milling about. So to mill about kind of means you're like moving around, you're moving somewhere with no purpose, kind of like what I'm doing today, just walking around but not really going anywhere in particular.
希望大家喜歡這段視頻,我們現在就去街上轉轉,看看能找到什麼。這裡是劍橋市場,就在劍橋市中心,有一個出售各種食品和新鮮農產品的市場,也有很多來自世界各地的食品攤位。所以這裡有很多國際美食,你可以看到我周圍有很多人在閒逛。所謂 "閒逛",就是指你四處走動,沒有任何目的,就像我今天所做的一樣,只是走走停停,並沒有去什麼特別的地方。
So lots of people milling about and I'm trying to get around them and keep a distance as much as possible, yeah very interesting market.
所以有很多人在轉悠,我想繞開他們,儘量保持距離,是啊,非常有趣的市場。
And now what you can see this is very very special. So now we're walking down King's Parade and you can see on the right this is the entrance to King's College, a public university, very famous King's College, one of the most beautiful buildings in all of Cambridge.
現在你可以看到,這裡非常特別。現在我們正走在國王大道上,你可以看到右邊是國王學院的入口,這是一所公立大學,非常著名的國王學院,是劍橋最漂亮的建築之一。
This is a world-renowned college, renowned. This word renowned means kind of famous or well talked about, like many people know it. So it's a renowned college and one of the most famous in the world and apparently was founded in the year 1441. Incredibly old college, 1441, really amazing. And as you can see there are many people again they're milling about, they're walking around, they're enjoying this sunny day.
這是一所世界聞名的大學,享有盛譽。"知名 "這個詞的意思是 "有名 "或 "廣為人知",就像很多人都知道它一樣。是以,這是一所著名的學院,也是世界上最著名的學院之一,很顯然,它成立於1441年。令人難以置信的古老學院,1441年,真是令人驚歎。正如你所看到的,這裡還有很多人,他們熙熙攘攘,走來走去,享受著這陽光明媚的一天。
And many of the people are lying down, lying down and enjoying the sun. And by the way we don't say laying down, this is a really important distinction. So when you say to lie it doesn't need an object. So I lie on the bed, I lie down. The past tense is lay. If you say lay in the present tense that would need an object. So we say I lay the phone on the table, I lay down something else, it needs an object. And the past tense of this one is laid. So for example the chicken lies on the bed, the chicken laid an egg. It's a little bit confusing but yeah and I'll put the kind of information up on the screen here because that's a little bit of a confusing one.
很多人都躺著,躺著享受陽光。順便說一下,我們不說 "躺下",這是一個非常重要的區別。所以當你說 "躺下 "時,並不需要一個對象。所以我躺在床上,我躺下。過去式是 lay。如果用現在時說 lay,就需要一個賓語。所以我們說 "我把電話放在桌子上"、"我躺下了 "都需要一個賓語。而這個詞的過去式是 lay。例如,雞躺在床上,雞下了一個蛋。這有點令人困惑,不過我會把相關資訊顯示在螢幕上,因為這有點令人困惑。
So what we're looking at now, this thing is called the corpus clock and to be honest I don't know much about it but it's a really cool clock called the corpus clock that was put here in 2008 I believe. And it's made of real gold so that's kind of cool.
我們現在看到的這個東西叫 "語料庫時鐘" 說實話,我對它瞭解不多,但它真的很酷,叫 "語料庫時鐘",我相信是2008年放在這裡的。它是用真金做的,所以很酷。
So here the first thing to talk about is this bridge, this beautiful old bridge.
在這裡,首先要談的就是這座橋,這座美麗的古橋。
This is known as the mathematical bridge. It was built in 1749 and it's a very famous bridge just because of the way it's built, the structure that's used to make this bridge and it's kind of very beautiful as well. So we could say kind of it has a very sound structure. Sound, I'm sure you've heard the word sound before, actually has some more meanings as well. So you could say a sound structure, sound logic, sound argument. So sound can mean healthy, for example safe and sound, safe and sound, safe and healthy right. It can mean reliable or logical as well, something based on good reason. So yes that's a sound argument. The final meaning is it can also mean kind of like cool or great, that's a slang term in the UK. So if you said hey do you want to meet at five o'clock, you could say yeah sound man, sounds good, sound. Kind of means like good, really cool. And the other thing that you can see here are these punts. So a punt is a long narrow boat. These people we're watching now, they are punting along the river.
這座橋被稱為數學橋。這座橋建於 1749 年,是一座非常著名的橋,因為它的建造方式和結構是用來建造這座橋的,而且這座橋也非常漂亮。是以,我們可以說它的結構非常合理。聲音,我想你一定聽過 "聲音 "這個詞,其實它還有更多的含義。是以,你可以說結構合理、邏輯合理、論證合理。是以,健全可以指健康,例如安全而健全、安全而健全、安全而健康。它還可以指可靠或合乎邏輯的,基於充分理由的東西。所以是的,這就是合理的論據。最後一個意思是,它也可以表示酷或棒,這是英國的一個俚語。所以,如果你說 "嘿,你想在五點鐘見面嗎?"你
Really beautiful. Another meaning of the word punt is to kick something very far.
真的很美。Punt 的另一個意思是把東西踢得很遠。
If you punt a football, that means you kick a football really far. But yeah this is a very different meaning of course.
如果你踢足球,那就意味著你把足球踢得很遠。當然,這兩者的意思是完全不同的。
I just wanted to show you a little bit of what Cambridge is like, showing you the streets here. Very beautiful, often cobbled streets as well or brick streets.
我只是想向你們展示一下劍橋的風貌,讓你們看看這裡的街道。這裡的街道非常漂亮,通常也是鵝卵石街道或磚砌街道。
It also seems like a very cycle friendly town. So if you're interested in visiting Cambridge, then maybe this video will inspire you to go.
劍橋也是一個非常適合騎自行車的城市。是以,如果你有興趣遊覽劍橋,也許這段視頻會激發你的興趣。
It seems to be very good for shopping, very good for going to the market and relaxing in the park as well. There's quite a few nice parks here as well. And I almost missed this one but what we're looking at here, this is Newton's apple tree. So many of you might know that Isaac
這裡似乎非常適合購物、逛市場和在公園裡放鬆。這裡還有不少漂亮的公園。我差點錯過了這個,但我們現在看到的是牛頓的蘋果樹。很多人可能都知道,艾薩克
Newton was the person who first kind of thought about the theory of gravity. But anyway they say he was thinking about the theory of gravity while sat under an apple tree. And what's really cool is this is actually kind of the exact tree he was sat under. So it's not exactly the same tree, what they did they grafted this from the original tree. It's kind of like an offshoot of the original tree and they replanted it here. So that's really cool I think and a nice piece of history there as well. Thank you very very much for watching my video today. I really really hope you enjoyed it.
牛頓是最早提出萬有引力理論的人。據說他是坐在一棵蘋果樹下思考萬有引力理論的。最酷的是,這棵樹和他坐過的樹一模一樣。所以這不是一棵完全相同的樹 他們從原來的樹上嫁接了這棵樹就像是原來那棵樹的一個分支 他們把它移栽到了這裡我覺得這真的很酷,也是一段很好的歷史。非常非常感謝您觀看我今天的視頻。我真的真的希望你們喜歡。
