海贼王889话：加洛特战绩爆表，四皇bigmom怒打桑尼号海贼王889话：加洛特战绩爆表，四皇bigmom怒打桑尼号二次元撩妹攻略百家号海贼王889话更新，七月君看完之后第一感觉是“最精彩的总在下一话”~好了，下面和海迷们一起看看本话有哪些主要内容：1、加洛特战绩爆表，一个人打残一支船队加洛特变身“月亮狮子”瞬间圈了无数粉，主要因为变身之后实在太漂亮了，这点就连官方都借助布鲁克的口吐槽了“你变身的样子真的很美哦”~海迷们猜到了加洛特变身的原因是月亮，但绝对没有猜到解除变身的方法竟然那么简单，帽子、墨镜、闭眼睛等等，凡是能隔绝眼睛和月光联系的方法都能解除变身。这点比隔壁龙珠必须剪短尾巴才能解除变身的设定好多了，试想一下那么漂亮的加洛特，有谁会忍心减掉她的尾巴呢~加洛特变身“月亮狮子”的单体战力到底有多强？因为没有和高级别战力正面冲突，我们还不好判断，但是在万军丛中毁掉所有船舵，又安然离开，这份实力绝对远超大福船上的那群渣渣。2、贝吉暗杀四皇贼心不死，山治据理力争负责运送蛋糕的贝吉，就像长子佩洛斯佩罗说的“能拯救这个国家的蛋糕偏偏是由最不可信任的人送过来”，相信是个人站在贝吉的位置上，都会想在蛋糕里加点东西，继续完成暗杀计划。话说贝吉是有多迷恋炸药啊，指望在蛋糕里放进炸弹就想杀掉四皇，你是有多天真啊。山治为了守护厨师的尊严和底线，愣是不同意贝吉添加毒药的方案。但是所有语言在利益面前都是苍白的，还是让蛋糕自己告诉你有多好吃吧~于是一口奶油征服了贝吉，“这么好吃的食物，不忍心破坏它给人带来的幸福感啊”~3、bigmom身体异变，怒打桑尼号从上一话里就说，bigmom的身体无故变瘦了，这话体现的更加明显，bigmom真的原来越瘦了，体型越来越靠近SBS里尾田大大给出的模样。相信海迷们之前预测的，修女和bigmom共用一个身体等等新奇脑洞很可能就要应验了~话说普罗米修斯附身的bigmom，简直如魔神临世一般，俯瞰着桑尼号。不过像甚平说的弃船，总感觉有点不可能，桑尼号有可能就这么被抛弃么？要想解决娜美他们的危局，看来只能是山治了呀~本文仅代表作者观点，不代表百度立场。系作者授权百家号发表，未经许可不得转载。二次元撩妹攻略百家号最近更新：简介:国内外动漫吐槽、分享作者最新文章相关文章为什么bigmom的甜点会说话_百度知道

1 Chinese New Year春 节
1 Chinese New Year 春 节 Chinese New Year is the most important festival for Chinese people all over the world. It is also called the Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year. The exact date of the Spring Festival on the Western calendar changes from year to year. However, Chinese New Year takes place between January 1 and February 19. On the Chinese calendar every year has an animal's name. These animals are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, ram, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. A Chinese legend says that these twelve animals had a race. The first year was named after the rat, the winner. The other eleven years were named according to the order in which the animals arrived in the race. The clever rat jumped onto the ox's back, and then at the end jumped over the ox's head to arrive first! The Chinese believe that a person born in a particular year has some of the characteristics of that animal. lunar 月(亮)的 exact 确切的 calendar 日历 rat 鼠 ox 公 牛 rabbit 兔子 ram 公羊 rooster 公鸡 legend 传说 name after 按....命名 particular 特殊的 characteristic 特征 对于全世界的华人来说， 中国的新年是最重要的节日。 人们也称它为春节或农历新年。公 历春节的确切日期每年都在变化。 但是春节一般都在 1 月 1 日 到 2 月 19 日 之间。 在 农历中，每年都有一个生肖。这些生肖是鼠、牛、虎、兔、龙、蛇、马、羊、猴、鸡、狗和 猪。据传说，这十二个动物举行了一次赛跑，第一年就以获胜者鼠命名，其他十一年就根据 动物们到达终点的顺序命名。 聪明的鼠跳在牛背上， 在最后时刻跳过牛的头顶第一个到达终 点！ 中国人相信在某一年出生的人具有这一年生肖的一些特征 2 A Teenager's Joke: Guidelines for Doing Schoolwork 有关青少年的一则笑话――做作业的指 导方针 My school had a policy about homework.

He was a fat old frog. He sat and moaned and groaned. The toad said, “Do not moan and groan, Mr. Frog. Hop like me. Hop down the road.” So the frog and the toad went down the road to a big oak tree. “I am home,” said the toad. “Come in and I will make tea.” But Mr. Frog said, in a deep croak, “I must not roam far from home. I will be off to my home near the pond.” toad 蟾蜍,癞蛤蟆 moan 呻吟 hop 跳跃 oak 橡树 croak 一种低而嘶哑的声音一只癞蛤蟆 在路边看到一只青蛙。那是只又胖又老的青蛙。他坐在那里呻吟叹息着。 癞蛤蟆说： “青蛙1先生，不要呻吟叹息了。像我一样跳吧。沿着这条路跳。 所以青蛙和癞蛤蟆一起沿着小路 ” 跳到一棵大橡树下。 “我到家了， ”癞蛤蟆说， “进来吧，我来泡茶。 但青蛙用低沉的声 ” 音说： “我不能在离家远的地方闲逛，我要回我在池塘边上的家。 ” 4 A was an apple pie A was an apple pie A 是一个苹果(APPLE)派 B bit it B 咬了(BIT)一口苹果派 C cut it C 切 开(CUT)苹果派 D dealt it D 来分发(DEALT)苹果派 E eat it E 吃了(EAT)一块苹果派 F fought for it F 为了一块苹果派而与人打斗(FOUGHT) G got it G 得到了(GOT)苹果派 H had it H 也分到了(HAD)苹果派 I inspected it I 来检查(INSPECTED)苹果派 J jumped for it J 为得到了苹果派而欢蹦乱跳(JUMPED) K kept it K 保存(KEPT)起了苹果派 L longed for it L 渴 望 (LONGED) 得 到 苹 果 派 M mourned for it M 因 没 得 到 苹 果 派 而 伤 心 落 泪 (MOURNED) N nodded at it N 对苹果派垂涎三尺(NODDED) O opened it O 打开了 (OPENED)苹果派 P peeped in it P 觊 觎 (PEEPED) 苹 果 派 Q quartered it Q 把 个 苹 果 派 分 成 了 四 份 (QUARTERED) R ran for it R 跑着(RAN)去抢苹果派 S sang for it S 为苹果派而歌唱(SANG) T took it T 拿走了(TOOK)苹果派 U upset it U 打翻了(UPSET)苹果派 V viewed it V 审 视着(VIEWED)苹果派 W wanted it W 想得到(WANTED)苹果派 XYZ and & all wished for a piece in hand.

I was really shocked because I had never been hugged before, and I wasn sure how to respond. By the time I left America, though, I came to enjoy hugging and being hugged. Shaking hands was also a challenge. My homestay father, Peter, looked at me straight in the eye and squeezed my hand firmly. Both Mary and Peter wanted me to call them by their first names because they, as Americans, like informality. By using first names only, we felt friendlier towards each other. homestay 家 庭 寄 宿 host 东 道 主 hug 拥 抱 shock 震 惊 respond 回 应 challenge 挑 战 straight 直接地 squeeze 挤压 firmly 紧紧地 informality 随意 在美国 家庭寄宿 我叫珍妮， 我在美国家庭寄宿。 当我第一次见到我要寄宿那家的母亲玛丽时她热情地拥抱了 我。我确实感到非常震惊因为我从来没有被拥抱过，我不知道该如何回应。然而到我要离开 美国时，我已经非常喜欢拥抱别人和被别人拥抱了。 握手也是个挑战。我寄宿那家的父亲 彼特，直视着我的眼睛，紧紧地握我的手。 玛丽和彼特都希望我对他们直呼其名，因为美 国人一般比较随意。通过直呼其名，我们互相之间感到更加亲切友好 6 Brothers and Sisters My sister is a year older than me and we've been sharing a room since I was 3 years old. We are very close, but we also fight all the time. Our fights are never serious. I can't remember the cause of our fights now, but they were always over small things. Sometimes it was just over a particular word I used or maybe just because my sister gave my teddy bear a hug and I was unhappy about it. We don't take our fights very seriously as if all the fights are a game. I think it's perfectly okay for kids to fight with their brothers or sisters. Now I'm a teenager, and I even think that they're sweet memories! share 分享 serious 认真的 cause 原因 fight 打架 particular 特别的，特殊的 teddy bear 玩具熊 teenage 青少年 perfectly 完全 兄 弟 姐 妹 我的姐姐比我大一岁，从我三岁起我们就一直合用一个房间。我们非常亲密，但是我们也时2常打架。我们打架从来不是认真的。我现在都记不起我们打架的原因，但肯定是因为一些小 事。有时候，仅仅是因为我用的某个词，或者是因为姐姐抱了我的玩具熊，而我对此感到生 气。我们从来不把打架当真，就好像这只是场游戏。我觉得小孩子和兄弟姐妹们打打闹闹没 有什么。现在我已经十几岁了，但我觉得那都是我美好的回忆！ 7 Thirty Days Hath September （Nursery Rhyme） Thirty days hath September, April, June, and N All the rest have thirty-one, Except for February alone, It has twenty-eight days clear, And twenty-nine on each Leap Year. hath （古英语）=has leap year 闰年 三十天的是九月（童谣一首） 三十天的是九月（童谣 一首） 三十天的是九月， 四月，六月和十一月； 其余的月份都是三十一天， 除了二月， 二月只有二十八天， 每个闰年二月有二十九天 8 Two Dumplings 两个饺子 A young man had a small business.

There were stairs leading to the top, but Diana and Peter decided to take the lift. At the top there was a caf?and a balcony where visitors could stand and enjoy the view. It was magnificent ― you could see the whole city, the river and the hills beyond. On their way back from the Tower, Diana and Peter went past the main square in the city centre.

Over thousands of years, man has taught his dogs to do many kinds of work besides guarding the home. For example, sheepdogs are famous for their ability to control a flock of hundreds of sheep.

It used to bother me, so I suggested he see a doctor, and have his legs checked out. For years, he refused and told me I was crazy, but last week, he finally went. Sure enough, the doctor discovered his left leg was a quarter inch shorter than his right.

They stuck a tail made of paper to one of the corners, and tied a long string to the centre of the kite.

They are always swinging and flying from one tree to another looking for food among the leaves and branches. They even sleep in the treetops so they do not have to come down to the ground. Have you heard that such animals and birds in the rainforests are in danger? Because people are cutting down so many trees in the forests, the animals are losing their homes. Do you know the reasons for it? Yes, people want wood, paper and land. As a result many animals and plants are dying. Some forests are so badly damaged that they become deserts. rainforest 雨林 woodpecker 啄木鸟 treetop 树顶 swing 摇荡 leaves 树叶（leaf 复数形式） branch 树枝 desert 沙漠一些雨林中的动物和鸟类生活在树顶上，例如猴子和啄木鸟。它们 总是从一棵树荡到或飞到另一棵树上，在树叶和树枝间寻找食物。它们甚至在树顶睡觉，所 以它们不用到地面上来。 你知道吗？雨林中的这些动物正处于危险中。因为人们砍伐了森 林中的许多树，动物们失去了家园。你知道人们砍树的原因吗？是的，人们需要木材、纸和 土地。所以，许多动物和植物正在消亡。一些森林遭到了严重的破坏，变成了沙漠 21 English in the World Some people say that the English language no longer belongs to the English, and it belongs to the world. It is estimated that the number of people who use English exceeds 750 million. Among these, about 350 million are native speakers, while the rest use it as an official language.

You might try to guess what the words mean from the words you know, but when you cannot guess the meanings of new words at all, what should you do? You have a good friend then. From him you can learn what a word means, how to pronounce a word, how to use a word, and so on. This friend can always be with you, and you can always ask him to help you.

The friend was very rich. He and his wife had their own box at the theatre. During the opera the friend's wife talked all the time. She also talked rather loudly. She talked so much that it was often difficult for Mark Twain to listen to the opera. Toward the end of the opera she turned to Mark Twain and said, &Oh, my dear Mark Twain, I do want you to be with us again next Friday night.

I have been in England for eleven months. I am going to finish my studies in England soon, and will leave for China next month. At first it was very difficult for me to communicate with other people in English. Now I can speak English much better, and even understand English television, because I have studied hard and my teachers and classmates have helped me a lot. I have lots of English friends now. Some of them have even invited me for dinner at their houses. They are interested to learn about China and Chinese people. Every time they ask me a lot of questions, I realize how little I know about my own country. 去年夏天，我来到英国。现在我在英国已经待了十一个月了。我将很快结束在英国的学习， 下个月我就将回中国了。 一开始，我觉得很难用英语和别人交流。现在我英语说得好多了， 甚至可以看懂英语电视，这是因为我学习很努力，老师和同学对我的帮助也很大。现在我有 许多英国朋友。一些朋友甚至邀请我去他们家吃饭。他们对中国和中国人很感兴趣。每当他 们问我许多问题时，我才意识到自己对祖国的了解是如此之少 25 The Hare and the Tortoise 兔子和乌龟 One day a hare was telling the other animals how fast he could run. &I can beat anyone!&cried he. &Will one of you try a race with me?&&I will,?said the tortoise. &You!?laughed the hare. &Oh, oh, how funny!?&Save your laughing for the end of the race,?said the tortoise.

He wanted to know what lay beyond the Rocky Mountains. Kit's father had taught him to shoot straight, but he learned more about hunting and trapping in the country of the Indians. Kit was always calm in times of danger. He was strong and brave. Most of the Indians liked and respected him for his honesty. For many years, Kit lived in the West.

When I was standing up to give my seat to the old lady, a young foreigner got up quickly saying, &Please sit down.&The old lady thanked him and sat down. She looked very happy.

On his way home he met a river. As he looked down, he saw his shadow in the water. &Just look!&said he to himself. &That dog down there has some meat, too. If I could get it away from him, I would really eat well tonight!&With this thought, he made a snap at the other dog's meat. And as he did, his own meat fell into the water.

Mostly, I hate when someone tries to make someone else feel bad. I have to admit that once, when I was really angry, I actually called names. I regretted doing this afterwards, but not full heartedly because I think I was provoked in that situation.The most positive way of dealing with anger is talking about the problem. I talk to someone who listens, or I'll write my thoughts down on paper. Learning how to deal with anger as you're growing up is so important. When you're younger, you might yell, or cry when you're angry, but as you get older, you're expected to handle your emotions much better. Learning to control your emotion now will prevent you from doing something that you'll regret later on in life! emotion 情绪 manage 控制， 操纵， 管理 admit 承认 full heartedly 全心全意地 provoke 激怒 prevent 预防，防止什么事会让我愤怒呢？通常情况下，当有人试图使别人觉得不舒服时，12我会非常愤怒。我不得不承认，有一次，在我实在很生气的时候，我确实骂了人。过后，我 很后悔那么做，但我不认为全是我的错，因为我觉得在那种情况下，我是被激怒了。 解决 愤怒的最积极的方法是把问题说出来。我说给愿意听的人，或者把我的想法写在纸上。在你 成长的过程中， 学会处理愤怒是非常重要的。 小时候， 你生气的时候可以大喊大叫或者哭闹， 但长大后，你被期望能更好地控制情绪。 现在就学着控制情绪能让你避免做一些可能使你 以后遗憾一生的事情 38 “I Don’t Have to Eat All the Egg.” A lady once wrote a long story.

After finishing my business, which took several days, I went to Stratford, where Shakespeare was born. In Stratford, I visited several sites that are associated with Shakespeare, including the house where he was born, the church where he was buried, and the cottage where his wife's family lived.

We wanted to check if it was clean. We did many scientific tests to see if the river was healthy. Surprisingly, it was! We still, though, took any rubbish we could find out of the river. We wanted to make sure fish could live there happily. Recently, I helped the group plant flowers at our school. We're hoping the flowers will bloom this spring and make the school look beautiful.

Some of them are very popular. Dumplings are real Chinese food.Everyone in China likes dumplings very much, and there are many different kinds of dumplings. Some have meat and vegetables in them and others have sugar, eggs and other tasty things. I like dumplings with vegetables and pork better than any other kind. Usually people make dumplings at home. If you have no time to make them, you can buy them in supermarkets. Then you take them home, heat them up and eat them with vinegar. The Spring Festival is very important in China. During the Spring Festival, we make dumplings. Usually we put a coin in one dumpling. If you eat the dumpling with the coin in it, you will be very lucky in the year. tasty 好吃的 pork 猪肉 vinegar 醋 饺子 在中国，有许多不同的食物，其中一些非常受欢迎。饺子是正宗的中国食物。 在中国每个 人都很喜欢吃饺子。饺子有许多不同的种类。一些饺子包有肉和蔬菜，有些包有糖、蛋和其 他好吃的东西。我最喜欢蔬菜和猪肉馅的饺子。 人们经常在家包饺子。如果没有时间包， 你可以到超市去买，然后把它们带回家，烧熟，蘸着醋吃。 春节是中国非常重要的节日。在春节里我们包饺子。我们经常把一枚硬币放在一个饺子里。 如果你吃到了包有硬币的饺子，那你在来年就有好运气。 45 In a Strange City If you go out by yourself in a strange city, you might get lost. What should you do? How can you find your way? Of course, if you never go out alone, you won't get lost, but you will also miss a lot of good experiences. One thing you can do in case you get lost is take a map along. It might also be a good idea to take a card from your hotel, so you have the hotel's address. If the map doesn's help you, or if you forget to take one, you must ask how to get where you're going. You can ask, for example, &There is Nova Hotel?'or &How do I get to Nova Hotel?&or &Do you know where Nova Hotel is?&Police officers and clerks in shops are often helpful when you ask directions. get lost 迷路 experience 经历 in case 如果，万一 在一个陌生的城市里 如果你在陌生的城市里一个人出去走走， 你可能会迷路。 那你该怎么办呢？你该如何找到路15呢？当然，如果你从来不独自出门，你不会迷路，但是你将会错过许多很好的经历。 为了 防止迷路，你能做的一件事就是随身携带一份地图。随身带一张酒店的卡片也是个好主意， 这样你就知道酒店的地址了。 如果地图帮不了你， 或者你忘记带地图了， 你必须向他人问路。 例如，你可以问“Nova 酒店在哪里？”或者问“我该怎么走才能到 Nova 酒店？”或者问 “您知道 Nova 酒店在哪里吗？”当你要问路时，警察或商店的店员通常会帮助你。 46 Body Language 身 体 语 言 If you can speak English, you know a lot of English words. You can read, speak and understand. But there is another kind of language you need to know ― the language of the body. All over the world, people &talk?with their hands, with their heads, and with their eyes. When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians meet, they put their hands together. When British and American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends, and men kiss women friends (on the cheek only). When a man meets a man friend, he just smiles, and says &Hello? Men do not kiss each other, or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other. 即使你会说英语，你知道很多英文单词，你会读，会说，能听懂，但还有另外一种语言你需 要了解――那就是身体语言。 在全世界，人们都用他们的手、头和眼睛“说话” 。当日本人 见面时，他们相互鞠躬。印度人见面时他们双手合十。 当英国人和美国人第一次和别人见 面时，他们互相握手。通常，他们不和熟悉的人握手。女人有时亲吻她们的女性朋友，男人 也会亲吻女性朋友（只亲脸颊） 。当男人见到男性朋友时，他只微笑着说声“你好” 。男人之 间不会互相亲吻或牵手。即使是父子之间也不会经常亲吻对方。 47 Little Blue Flower 小 蓝 花 Sky Chief was a brave Indian chief.
