Angel, I tell you a story.

This is a story that took place in China. And I try to put it in English.

Once a middle school chemistry teacher tried to explain to his students what saturation means. He told the students: "Just imagine a crowded bus. If a bus is saturated, it will eject a person from its back door whenever one is put in through the front door. A saturated solution is just like. ...."

After the class, a few students go to lunch. Of course, teenagers have very good appetites. One guy ate several bowls of rice, but he still couldn't stop. Then, another guy said, "Stop, stop! Otherwise, you are gonna be suturated!".

    What is a car?

    A car is .....

    Yesterday, an Amtrak train was detailed in the suburb of Washtington. In the news report, it was said 6 or 7 passenger cars were thrown away. One of my Chinese colleages misunderstood that the derailed train crashed some cars that were beside the rail way. She was immediately corrected by a native English speaker: By car the reporter meant coach, not the vehicle that we drive in everyday life.

    This story reminded me of the first time I heard people use the word "bird" to refer the turkey and chicken.
    • 呵呵,car这个词儿是不是在马车时代就有了?
      • 大半夜的,闹鬼了? :-)
        • It's a long story. :P 昨天考试成绩放榜,一门惴惴不安以为肯定要补考的课居然轻松通过,狂喜,松弦,下午狂睡午觉,晚上看午夜片场补课《三国演义》赤壁大战、刘皇叔招亲,然后就睡不着了……
