时间过得很快,一转眼已经立冬。秋天渐渐而过,未曾记得它留下过什么。既然如斯,今天我们就一路来进修下关于秋天的词汇吧,也算是对秋天的一个纪念。
1、autumn years 是什么意思?
剑桥词典是如许阐明:Someone's autumn years are the later years of their life, especially after they have stopped working.
其实很好理解,假设把一年四时比方人的一生,秋天接近一年的完毕所以 autumn years:(尤指退休后的)迟暮,老年末年
例句:
① In his autumn years, Jason was able to travel to any places he likes.
到了晚年,杰森能够往任何他喜好的处所旅游了。
② Tom wants to spend his autumn years in Hangzhou and go fishing everyday.
汤姆想在杭州安度晚年,天天都往垂钓。
之前良多小伙伴问速读君,同样是秋天的意思,autumn 和 fall 到底有什么差别?

2、autumn 和 fall 有什么区别?
良多人都晓得,秋天有 autumn 和 fall 两种说法,只不外英国人一般把秋天喊做 autumn,美国人则喜好用:fall。
所以你若何称唤那个季节,取决于你学的是英语仍是美语,此外 “autumn” 相对更正式,一般用于正规的场所和书面表达,“fall” 则更白话化,常见于英语日常交换。
例句:
Her paintings capture the subtle hues of the countryside in autumn.
她的油画捕获住了秋天村落的微妙色彩。
1)立秋 = Beginning of Autumn
每年8月7、8或9日立秋,预示着炎热的炎天即将过往。
例句:
This season, although the Beginning of Autumn already for ages, but arrived midday, weather still very hot.
那时节,固然立秋已良久了,但到了中午,气候仍很热。
2)秋分 = Autumnal Equinox
每年的秋分发作在9月22日-9月23日,那一天太阳曲射地球赤道,气温也起头由热转凉。
例句:
On this day, the sun points directly at the earth’s equator, and the temperature also began to cool from the heat. The Autumnal Equinox is the best time for wheat-sowing.
那一天太阳曲射地球赤道,气温也起头由热转凉。“白露早,冷露迟,秋分种麦合理时”,此时也是播种小麦的更佳时节。
This year, the full moon and the autumnal equinox happened on the same day, for the first time in19 years.
本年,满月与秋分正好落在统一天,此种巧合为19年来的初次。
既然聊到季节,那么跟着我们进修那个短语: in season。
3、in season的三种用法
① in season = 生果和蔬菜)当令的
例句:
Fruit is cheaper when it's in season.
当令生果要廉价一些。
以此类推, out of season = 生果和蔬菜)不妥令的。
例句:
In Europe, tomatoes are out of season in winter.
在欧洲,西红柿在冬季不是时令蔬菜。
② in season=(雌性动物)在发情期 / in season=(动物)在打猎期
③ in season = 在旅游旺季 / out of season=在旅游旺季
例句:
Hotel rooms are more expensive in season.
在旅游旺季,宾馆的房间比力贵。
