 Lesson 12  Goodbye and good luck 


【TEXT】  

  Our neighbour, Captain Charles Alison, will sail from Portsmouth tomorrow. We'll meet him at the harbour early in the morning. He will be in his small boat, Topsail. Topsail is a famous little boat. It has sailed across the Atlantic many times. Captain Alison will set out at eight o'clock, so we'll have plenty of time. We'll see his boat and then we'll say goodbye to him. He will be away for two months. We are very proud of him. He will take part in an important race across the

Atlantic.

11 幸运与不走运

break your leg=good luck
“跌断腿吧”?这个短语看起来好像是诅咒人的,然而事实正相反,它的意思是“祝你好运”。break a leg这种说法通常是对要上台表演的人说的,比如你的朋友要上台给大家表演节目,你就可以对他说Go break a leg。

据说break a leg这个短语是从德语借来的。原来过去演员们都迷信,认为祝愿别人好运(good luck)会导致相反的结果,所以他们就改成祝愿别人厄运(break a leg),以期好运能降临了。
