Apples are not only healthy and delicious, but they are also a culturally important food in America. There are many apple related traditions in America, such as children bringing an apple to their teacher as a way of saying ‘thank you,’ a game called “bobbing for apples” that is played in the fall, and apple pie, a very American dessert, that is cooked and served on many important holidays like Independence Day and Thanksgiving Day.
蘋果不僅健康美味,在美國還有重要的文化屬性。有大量和蘋果相關(guān)的傳統(tǒng),比如小孩子帶一個蘋果到老師那里來表達感謝,秋季的咬蘋果游戲,在獨立日和感恩節(jié)這樣重要的節(jié)日里都會做一種典型的美式甜點-蘋果派。
1、as American as apple pie – This means that something has qualities, or features, that are typical of the United States or the people of the United States.
as American as apple pie: 具有典型的美國或美國人的特征。
Example: My brother drives a Ford truck and wears blue jeans every day; he is as American as apple pie.
例句:我哥哥每天開福特皮卡,穿藍(lán)色牛仔,是個地道美國人。
2、an apple a day keeps the doctor away – Apples are considered a nutritious food; so this expression is intended as advice. To stay healthy (and to not have to visit the doctor) you should eat healthy food like, an apple, every day.
an apple a day keeps the doctor away: 蘋果富含營養(yǎng),所以這種表達代表一種建議。要保持健康(不用看醫(yī)生)你應(yīng)該每天吃蘋果這樣的健康食物。
Example: Whenever I get sick my mother always reminds me to take care of myself by saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.”
例句: 每當(dāng)我生病,媽媽都會說“每天一蘋果疾病遠(yuǎn)離你”這句話來提醒我照顧好自己。

4、(like) comparing apples and oranges – This expression is used when someone is talking about two non-similar items, but trying to compare them as though they were similar.
(like) comparing apples and oranges: 當(dāng)某個人在討論兩個不相同的事物,但又試圖把它們像相同的事物一樣進行比較,可以使用這種表達。
Example: You can’t compare who works harder, me or you; I am a teacher and you are a fisherman, and that is like comparing apples and oranges.
例句:我和你誰工作更努力不能拿來比較,我是老師,而你是新生,根本風(fēng)馬牛不相及。
one rotten apple spoils the whole barrel – This expression means that one bad person influences everyone around him or her and can make them act bad too.
5、one rotten apple spoils the whole barrel: 一個壞人可以對他身邊的每個人產(chǎn)生壞的影響,會讓周圍的人做出不好的行為。
Example: Jimmy is the rotten apple that spoils the barrel in my class, I wish I didn’t have to be his teacher all year.
例句:吉米是班里的老鼠屎,我希望今年不用作他的老師。
6、How about them apples? or How do you like them apples? This question is the same as ‘What do you think of that?’ Asking this question is usually a way of bragging or showing off.
