地道英语口语学习:Shades 墨镜
Helen: This is Real English from BBC Learning English. I’m Helen.
Zoe: Hi,我是刘佳。
Helen: Today we’re going to look at words and phrases that have recently become part of the English language.
Zoe: 在今天的节目里，我们要一块儿来学学在英语中出现的新词儿，Helen，今天我们要学的是什么词呢？
Helen: Today’s new word is ‘shades’. shades.
Zoe: Shades. 你能给我们讲讲它的意思吗？Helen?
Helen: Well, shades is another word for sunglasses.
Zoe: 我知道 shade 在英语里是阴暗，阴凉处的意思，所以我想把太阳眼镜（墨镜）说成 shades 可能也是从这个意思来的吧。可是我们应该怎么用它呢？
Helen: Well, it’s an informal word. so you could say to a friend ‘I need to buy some new shades for my holidays`.
Zoe: 哦，原来 shades 就是在不正规场合时候用的，墨镜的意思
Helen: That’s right.
