关于雅思中的雾霾话题,应该如何说?
2017-01-19 小编:Eileen 7

  近年来,雾霾情况时有发生,成了国际性的关注焦点。不过先别急着吐槽天气,看看这些和雾霾有关的表达你会说吗?

  雾霾究竟是什么?

  根据维基百科,Haze is traditionally an atmospheric phenomenon where dust, smoke and other dry particles obscure the clarity of the sky.

  霾是一种传统的大气现象,灰尘,烟雾和其他干燥粒子让天空失去往日的光彩。

  在这里大家不妨注意一下dry particles,也就是干燥颗粒, 其实可吸入颗粒的表达是particulate matter,并不是很复杂,烤鸭们可以记得呢~

  fog和haze,可别随便用

  虽然很像,但是国内也是花了不少时间才搞清,雾和霾是两种东西哦~

  比如你可以说smoke of the big fire spread like fog,大火产生的浓烟像雾一样扩散,但是别忘了haze,也就是雾霾,是几乎固定不动的,也正是因为这个特点,让很多人觉得不舒服,那么就可以说,but then you peer into the haze,feeling despaired.也就是当你凝视雾霾,会感到绝望。

  雾霾实用小TIPS

  雾霾防治虽然已经是个屡见不鲜的话题,但是究竟要分几步走呢?如果考官和你聊起来,又怎么保证英文回答顺利流畅呢?贴心的环球君都帮大家整理好啦~

  Download an app to check air quality

  We should be aware of the air quality in our area. If the air quality is bad, we can minimize going outdoors or wear a face mask. An easy way would be having the information in your phone.

  首先要知道空气质量才能顺利应对啊!所以赶快在手机上下载一个可以查看空气质量的软件,一到敏感季节比如冬季,就每天拿出来先看一下再出门!

  Get air-filtering indoor plants or air filters

  Not only do certain houseplants provide a breath of fresh air, but they could also naturally improve indoor air quality. The best part is, you don’t even have to burn a hole in your wallet to get them. For those who’ve got extra cash to spend, then maybe think about an air filters.

  网友们总开玩笑说自己是祖国的绿萝,然而在家庭中放置几盆对净化空气十分有效的花卉草木,还真的是个不错的选择哦!如果有多余的预算,那么一个好质量的空气净化器当然也是个不错的选择~

  Wear the right mask

  During the haze season, we can see many types of masks being worn, make sure you’re wearing the right one.

  Disposable respirators are masks that have the word “NIOSH” and either “N95“, “N99“, “N100“, “R95“, “R99“, “R100“, “P95“, “P99” or “P100” printed on them. NIOSH stands for the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. A product that bears the word NIOSH means it meets certain standard recommended by the agency.

  口罩的选择多种多样,我们看到上一段中的either这个词,也就是表示N95,N99等等都是可以的,如果买的是进口口罩,那么要看是否有美国统一的NIOSH标志,确保你的口罩不是由小机构颁发的,否则效果可能堪忧哦~

  Minimize outdoor activities

  Depending on where you live and the current API reading, try to minimize your outdoor activities if they’re not that important. If you do have to go out, make sure you wear the right mask and stay hydrated.

  雾霾天还有一个很重要的就是要减少室外运动,大气情况已经堪忧,减少外出比较明智哦~

  雾霾小知识就为大家分享到这里,如果和别人聊起,也要如此条理清晰哦~如果在考场上考官和你聊到了有关雾霾的天气类话题,还可以说伦敦曾经也有过这样的pea soup fog,也被叫做London fog或killer fog,就是曾经的伦敦雾霾事件。不过通过环境治理,现在的伦敦鲜有这些情况发生,因此你还是很有信心哒~~~

  雾霾的那些话题就暂告一段落,不过小编知道,即使是雾霾天,勤奋的烤鸭们也不会停下提分的脚步!想要雅思提顺利提分?就快拨打400-608-0513报名雅思课程。
