True story 真實故事

 

I Iove drinking tea,and knowing this.A friend once invited me to a teahouse where we had one of my favourite types of tea:oolong.During the conversation my friend told me that his whole family liked to drink tea,especially his mother:“She really likes to drink thick tea.”It took me a while to figure out his meaning,but eventually I re-alized that what he meant to say was“她喜 歡喝濃茶.Which in English would be "She likes to drink really strong tea.”

 

我喜歡喝茶而且精于此道。曾經(jīng)一位朋友邀請我去一家茶社喝茶，在那我們喝了我最喜歡的一種茶—烏龍茶。交談中朋友告訴我他全家都喜歡喝茶，特別是他的媽媽:"She really likes to drink thick tea.”我想了好一會才明白他是想說“她喜歡喝濃茶。”這在英語中應(yīng)該是“She likes to drink really strong tea.”
