【交际指南】
1.英美人谈论天气,除个别情况是实实在在地了解天气情况外,其他绝大部分情况都不是为了天气而谈天气,而是为了引入新的话题.比如旅行的人们坐在车上,彼此互不认识,假若大家都默默地坐着,那未免太尴尬,而让人难受.为了打破这种冷局,人们就得无话找话说,说什么呢?在英美人看来,最方便也是最安全的办法,就是谈论天气.因为天气这一话题人人都可以发表见解,且不涉及他人私事(英美人视打听私事为大忌),也不至于失礼或引起误解.(另外,据说英国人尤其喜欢谈论天气,还与他们国家的多变天气有关,英国是世界上少有的几个天气异常多变的国家之一,那里往往是上午还是阳光普照,下午就会大雨淋漓,一小时前还是晴空万里,一小时后就会雾都茫茫.因此,谈论或预测天气很自然就成了英国人最经常的话题).谈论天气不仅仅是陌生人之间为了答腔或引入话题的惯用手段,就是熟悉人甚至朋友之间也常用之.
2.简洁是口语的一大特点,因此在谈论天气时,为了简洁起见,人们常使用一些省略句.如:
It’s a lovely day,isn’t it?
→Lovely day,isn’t it?
It’s rather cold today,isn’t it?
→Rather cold,isn’t it?
