With Cameron trying to win over swing voters with a video showing just how hard it is to run the country when you've got to make food for a film crew, engage with Facebook, deal with some people called the Lib Dems and find time to eat your Weetabix, here's a list of the finer details gleaned from a day in the life of the Prime Minister:
Given that the PM appears not to clean up after himself, the kitchen is spotless. Although, this may be the "show kitchen", with his second workplace to be revealed in a few days.
He has large number of cooking pots and a decent range of glass tumblers
他有很多烹飪鍋,和一堆像樣的玻璃杯
His pots and pans look like they're in an Ikea advert. Yet you can't help but feel they lack the scratches and burn marks that mean they are actually used. The second kitchen theory plot thickens.
theory n. 理論;原理;學(xué)說(shuō);推測(cè)。單詞很熟悉了,但拆分一下會(huì)更好。the這個(gè)成分實(shí)際與theater劇院有關(guān),核心含義是看。而希臘詞根(h)or-這個(gè)成分則是看管、守衛(wèi)、觀(guān)察了,與拉丁詞源的單詞revere v.尊敬中的詞根ver-和古英語(yǔ)來(lái)源的單詞如aware意識(shí)到和beware小心中的ware成分同源。所以說(shuō)如果theater是看表演的地方(ter在這里其實(shí)表場(chǎng)所),theory就是things to looked at,所以是原理。
He sleeps with his PMQs file
他讀著首相問(wèn)答文件睡著了
"I've got a lot of work to do. I'll go to bed probably with my (Prime Minister's) Question Time file."
“我工作很忙。我可能讀著首相問(wèn)答文件就睡著了?!?/div>
A lot of people are involved in his PMQs preparation
很多人參與到他的首相問(wèn)答準(zhǔn)備中來(lái)。
PMQs may be one man against 649 MPs, but in advance he has ten people help him prepare.
Yes, eating Weetabix and brushing your teeth are two vital activities to do in the morning, but do they both need to be kept at your office table? Dave, you've got a really nice kitchen, put the cereal there!
The?entrance?to Downing Street is mainly a clothes rack
唐寧街的入口主要是一個(gè)衣帽間
易詞解詞(BY 摩西)
entrance? n.入口;進(jìn)入,vt. 使出神,使入迷。這個(gè)單詞比較討厭,兩個(gè)意思似乎沒(méi)有聯(lián)系。是的,確實(shí)沒(méi)有聯(lián)系,因?yàn)椴鸱制饋?lái)根本就不同。當(dāng)拆分為entr+ance時(shí)候,很明顯,entr與enter有關(guān),所以是入口。而拆分為en+trance時(shí),en-表into,trance則是恍惚、出神之意,與transient短暫的有關(guān)。所以此時(shí)entrance就是to throw into a trance了,因此是使出神。
The Cabinet still is incredibly male
內(nèi)閣依舊難以置信的擠滿(mǎn)了男人
Cameron told Buzzfeed yesterday that he was not hopeful of getting a 50/50 gender balance in the Cabinet anytime soon.
