冬天不同城市各种冷，用中文可以很准确地表达冷的程度，冷的感觉，冷的方式……但是，歪果仁又怎么表达不同程度不同城市的冷呢？原来，英语世界里的“冷”并不只是“cold”哦！赶紧学起来吧!

1. How do you feel?

你感觉如何？

I have goose bumps all over in the cold wind.

寒风中冻得我浑身起鸡皮疙瘩。

She shivered because of the cold.

她冷得发抖。

I am frostbitten.

我生冻疮了。

I was freezing to death.

今天冻死我了。

例：

shiver既可作名词，又可作动词，表示“颤抖，打战，战栗”，

士兵们宁愿战斗到底也决不投降。

例：

A shiver of joy passed through her stomach when she heard the news.

2. How do we conquer the coldness?

我们如何战胜寒冷？

 

多穿点啰~
