英語(yǔ)早間課堂:A Bachelor Girl

Good morning , my buddies. I am Juliet and I am glad to meet you via network. I will receive a group of ballet dancers from America so I'm sorry to day that I haven't much time to share more with you. Today I won't beat around the bush and get down to today's five-minute programme. Still , I am hoping that you would spend a wonderful morning with me together.

大家早上好，我是JULIET， 很高興又和大家在空中見面了。今天由于我要接待來自英國(guó)的芭蕾舞舞蹈家們，時(shí)間比較緊，今早就不多說了，直接進(jìn)入我們5分鐘的早間節(jié)目，希望能和大家在此度過一個(gè)美好的清晨。

This morning I would like to talk about a type of female who hasn't been married and can support herself on her own, not depend on others. What's it? Let's listen to a simple situational dialogue and you can get the answer.

A : Do you know Sally? B : Sally? She's a bachelor girl. She's an excellent designer. Many of the company advertisements are her child trains. A: Why is she still single? She must have a face that would stop a clock.

B : oh, it's quite the other way round. She is a knock-out. She devotes much of his time to her career.

【精彩點(diǎn)撥】

Now have you found it ?【Juliet,is it a bachelor girl?】yeah , Lucy , you are smart as a whip. Right , it is " a bachelor girl". Bachelor 意思是“未婚男人”，也就是我們所說的“單身漢”，但是當(dāng)與girl連用時(shí)就轉(zhuǎn)指女人了, 而且是指“不依靠別人自己維持生活的女人”，類式于我們中文里說的“女強(qiáng)人”。
