三、中英文考试相关 “趣味对照”(中文歇后语→英语等效表达)
中文歇后语 | 英语等效表达 / 含义 |
---|---|
考试前的字典 —— 有求必应 | A dictionary before an exam — always helpful(字面直译,英语更常用 “rely on a dictionary”) |
考场里的钟 —— 分秒必争 | Time in the exam room — every second counts(强调时间紧迫) |

四、英语中与 “考试” 相关的谚语(类似歇后语的哲理)
- Practice makes perfect.

—— (“不准备就是准备失败”,强调备考的重要性) - Knowledge is power.
—— (“知识就是力量”,考试是检验知识的一种方式)
使用小贴士:
- 英语中没有严格意义上的 “歇后语”,但习语(idioms)和俚语(slang)同样能通过比喻传达生动的含义。
- 考试场景中,更常用简洁的短语(如 “cram, ace, flunk”)或谚语来表达特定情境。
- 如果需要在写作或口语中使用,可以结合具体语境选择贴切的表达,避免直译中文歇后语导致误解。
希望这些表达能帮到你!如果需要特定场景的例句,可以进一步说明哦~
