the street, I was approached by an elde
rly man who asked “How are you? Are you

lost? How can I help you?”, which really impressed and warmed me. Another time,
as I was pushing my bike on the sidewalk one night, a young lady shouted to me:
“Carry me please” and then jumped onto my bicycle. While
we had a little chat, she
got where she wanted and hopped off my bike with “Thanks, bye!” At that moment,
I had a sense as much of pleasant surprise as of “being trusted”.




Still in Australia, two of my friends decided to hitch(

)their way to Sydney
in
order
to
save
money.

stopped,

each other, they went their separate ways.

D
Writing it down
Unlike some other European languages, English is a little tricky when it comes
to
writing.
How
a
word
is
pronounced
and
how
it
is
actually
spelt
can
be
very
different things.
Some spelling, different meanings



Imagine, then, a situation where two words are spelt and pronounced exactly the
same
way
but
have
completely
different
meanings.
Welcome
to
the
world
of
homonyms(
同形同音异义词
). Take, for example, the world “fair”
---it can be a kind
of festival, an adjective to describe the colour of your hair or how you should play a
game.
Or
“leg”,
which
can
be
attached
to
a
person,
or
a
table
and
can
also
be
a
distance you travel, or a part of a competition.
Don’t take it literally(
字面意思
)



So how do you know which meaning someone is referring to? You don’t, except
by the context. Obviously, if someone asks you to “give them a hand”, they don’t
want you to remove what is at the end of your arm.
What’s in a name?




Sometimes
even
the
context
doesn’t
help
much
---the
result
can
be
amusing.
These sentences play with the double meaning of a noun:



Sentence 1: I used to be banker, but I lost interest.



Sentence 2: A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital. When
his grandmother phoned to ask how he was, the nurses said: “No change yet”.
