動物英語：“猛犸象”的比喻義

9月6日，俄羅斯館薩哈（雅庫特）共和國展覽正式拉開了帷幕，館內展示的不乏稀世珍寶——猛犸象骨雕刻品、奇特形狀的金條，還有精美切割的雅庫特鉆石。

猛犸象，曾經(jīng)是遠古時代地球上最大的象，英語中它的名字是mammoth。因為是龐大動物的名字，所以mammoth這個詞也就有了比喻義，表示“非常龐大”的意思：

mammoth enterprise：龐大的企業(yè)

obama healthcare reform bill is a mammoth job killer

這是一則新聞的標題：奧巴馬醫(yī)改政策是一個巨型“飯碗”殺手

很可愛的一個形容詞哦，比起giant、enormous要形象很多，大家可以學著使用 動物英語：“安哥拉長毛兔”的國籍不是安哥拉

9月26日是世博安哥拉館日，提及安哥拉，大家不一定都了解這個國家，不過都知道有名的安哥拉長毛兔吧——注意注意哦，這么有名的兔子其實和安哥拉這個國家完全沒有半點關系，名字上的一致只是因為中文音譯的關系：安哥拉這個國家名是angola，而安哥拉長毛兔的名字是angora，原產自土耳其。

可愛的angora rabbit分好幾個breed，種類，比較著名的有english，英系安哥拉；french，法系安哥拉；german，德系安哥拉；satin angora，緞毛安哥拉（產自加拿大）與 giant angora，巨型安哥拉（產自美國）。

安哥拉兔兔是一種domestic rabbit，家兔，價值就在于又長又軟的兔毛，18世紀中期，安哥拉兔兔也是法國皇室貴族很喜歡的一種寵物。兔兔那一身的毛是怎么剪下來的呢？通常情況下有這幾種剪毛的方法：shearing, 用大剪刀剪，就像剪羊毛那樣；combing, 梳理；plucking，摘、拔（這個會痛的吧？）

其實毛長了也會造成困擾：regardless of breed, all angoras must be monitored to prevent www.seogis.comice. 戴手套的貓，老鼠抓不到。（不愿吃苦的人成不了大事業(yè)。）
