人与动物的关系英语作文

人与动物的关系英语作文 Human beings are different from animals in many ways. One of the differences is the ability of human beings to build. It is true that many animals are builders. Birds make nests, and bees make hives. But no animal could build the pyramids or the Great Wall or the Eiffel Tower. The variety, size, and beauty of the structures built by human beings is simply unsurpassed. Another difference is the ability of human beings to use intelligence. Many animals are probably more clever than we realize, but no animal has the ability to write, to reason, or to speak. Only human beings can invent computers, make use of solar energy. Only human beings paint, draw, compose music, and write poetry. These are but a few of the differences between human beings and animals. It is our special abilities that give us power to affect the world for the benefit of all mankind. We should be thankful for those abilities and learn to use them in a more wise way. 1

It is one of the most precious animals. Their bodies are very long, about one zhang. Dolphins live in the sea. They live on fish, shrimps and so on. Dolphins are very friendly and peaceful. They never attack people. Instead, they have saved many people in danger in the past years. How helpful the dolphins are! Dolphins are very clever. People often train them so that they can give a dolphin show which brings people a lot of happiness and joy. Unluckily, the number of dolphins is getting smaller and smaller. Because of water pollution, there is less and less space for dolphins. Many people make money by hunting dolphins. If we don’t protect them, maybe we’ll lose our good friends one day. As a student, I hope more and more people should take actions to protect dolphins. 【关于动物的英语作文篇二】 Elephant is the largest animal on land today.

动物比喻谚语俗语

动物比喻(Animal Metaphors)在英汉两种语言中均有广泛的使用,它使语言生气勃勃,形象鲜明。然而,由于文化背景、思维方式的不同,人们对动物比喻的正确理解和翻译存有障碍。从翻译的角度总体来说,动物比喻可以分为两大类: 一类是:译语与原语存在对应的关系,使动物形象再现成为可能。根据两种语言在意义、形象或风格上的相似性,翻译时可采用同值、近值互借法,以再现原语形象。例如:1.What a dull speech! He's merely parroting what many others have said. 多么单调乏味的讲话!他不过是鹦鹉学舌,重复许多人说过的话而已。 2.A wolf in sheep's clothing 披着羊皮的狼 3.One swallow does not make a summer. 孤燕不成夏。 4.He is as sly as a fox. You've got to watch him. 他狡猾得像个狐狸。对他你可要当心点儿。 5.You stupid ass! How could you do a thing like that? 你这头蠢驴!怎么会干出那种事儿来? 6.The children were as busy as bees, making preparations for the festival. 孩子们准备过节忙得像蜜蜂一样。 另一类是:同一动物形象在原语和译语中的语用意义相去甚远,甚至完全相悖。因此,在翻译过程中就出现了动物形象名称的转换。这种动物形象的转换可以是一种动物形象转换为另 一种动物形象。例如: 1.Talk horse. 吹牛。(horse译为“牛”) 2.Ass in a lion's skin. 狐假虎威。(ass译为“狐”,lion译为“虎”) 3.Black sheep. 害群之马。(sheep译为“马”) 4.Lock the stable door after the horse is stolen. 亡羊补牢。(horse译为“羊”)
