大部分注重自身健康的人都会加入到了跑步的行列,跑步的好处有很多,这是大家都在说的。今天我们学习一些相关的英文吧。

01、“long run”不是“长跑”

long run 的意思是长期的,常见搭配是in the long run=从长远来看。长跑正确的表达是:long-distance running

例句:

①Investing our money in the stock market will be worth it in the long run.

②Students at a university will probably not receive their diploma if they fail a physical fitness test, a type of test that requires students to achieve long-distance running.

大学生如果没有通过体能测试,他们很可能得不到毕业证书,这种测试要求学生完成长跑。

02、“run short”不是“短跑”

run short 的意思是快用完了,一般搭配: run short of something。短跑的正确英文表达:sprint

我们的饮用水快用完了。

②Pikachu will compete in both sprints in Shanghai .

皮卡丘将参加在上海举行的两个短跑项目的比赛。

03、“跑两圈”英文怎么说?

circle [ˈsɜːkl]圆圈,但跑两圈说成run two circles,是典型的中式英文,跑步是用腿来跑的,英语中要用lap[læp]或者thigh[θaɪ],这两个单词都有“大腿”的意思,所以我跑两圈可以说:

I run two laps. 或者 I run two thighs.

例句:

I run two laps every day.

我每天都跑两圈。

run a mile 的意思是敬而远之,表示在一种特定情况下,出于害怕或者不愿意,就不去做某事。

run around in circles 的意思是浪费时间,在想做的事上得不到进展

例句:

我们似乎只是在浪费时间。

②It took a few days of running around in circles before I took care of everything.

在我搞定所有事之前,也做过几天无用功。

06、run in the family

run in the family 的意思是,世代相传,为一家人所共有。

例句:

①Musical talent runs in my family.

我们家的人都有着音乐细胞。
