以上就是我们所有用来形容城市的单词。接下来,我们要专注于一些可以用来形容乡村的词,如果你不是来自城市。

First on our list, we have the word rural, rural. I want you to practice that word a lot because it's kind of a tricky word to say in English.

Also if you have a lot of jobs leave a town, that town might become rundown. For example, where I am from the steel mill left the town, so some of the buildings in my town became rundown.

如果很多工作离开了某个城镇,那么这个城镇可能会变得破败。例如,钢铁厂离开了我的城镇,所以我城镇的一些建筑变的破败。

Next on our list, we have the word quaint. Quaint means something is old-fashioned.

下一个是古朴的。古朴的表示某些东西是老式的。

Another close-knit place you might find in the countryside is a church. In churches, people want to help each other out and they celebrate good times together.

你可能会发现农村另一个团结的地方是教会。教会里的人会想互相帮助,而且他们一起庆祝美好时光。

I would call that a close-knit church. Of course there are many other places in your community that can be called close-knit, such as schools, or what have you.

我称之为团结的教会。当然在你的社区中还有很多其它地方可以称之为团结的地方,例如学校或其他任何地方。

Next on our list, we have the word outskirts. The outskirts just means a place is outside the city, outside the city.

下一个是边缘地带。边缘地带意味着一个地方在城市外面,城市外面。

So it is not near the downtown. It takes quite a while to get the. . . to downtown of a city.

所以它不在市区附近。到达市区要花很长时间。

For example, San Jose is on the outskirts of San Francisco. It is not near downtown San Francisco.

例如圣何塞位于旧金山的边缘地带。它不在旧金山市中心附近。

It can take up to an hour in traffic to get from San Jose to downtown San Francisco. So I will also write here not near downtown.

从圣何塞到旧金山市区最多可能需要一个小时的交通。所以我也会在这里写不在市中心附近。

Cool, this is very similar to our next word suburb, suburb. So do you remember our word urban with the cities?

好的,这很像我们的下一个词,郊区,郊区。所以你还记得我们讲城市时说到的城市的那个词吗?

This suburb simply means outside the urban or outside the city. But it is a little different from outskirts.

When you think suburb, I want you to think of families living in houses. There are not a lot of apartments in the suburbs.

如果你想象郊区,我希望你想的是住在独栋房子里的家庭。郊区没有很多公寓。

You usually have a family with children and a yard, a big car in a big house, living in the suburb. The grown-ups in the family will drive to the city to go to work.

你通常会看到一个有孩子的家庭,一个院子,一个大房子里有一辆大汽车,住在郊区。家庭里的成年人会开车到城市里工作。

So suburb, think of a family in a house and that family usually will go to work in the city. Cool, and last on our list, we have the word picturesque.

一个风景如画的地方的例子是奥地利,甚至是新西兰。这些地方有很多美丽的建筑,或美丽的田野,山脉,树木,让你想要拍照的任何事物,你都可以形容为如画的。

One more important thing to keep in mind when using the word outskirts is the proper preposition for outskirts is on, on the outskirts. I would say San Jose is on the outskirts of San Francisco.

使用这个单词时要记住的另一个重要事项是边缘地带搭配的介词是 on,on the outskirts。我会说圣何塞在旧金山的边缘地带。

Whereas with suburb, you want to use in, in the suburb. I live in the suburb or I live on the outskirts.

而郊区搭配的介词是 in,in the suburb。我住在郊区或我住在边缘地带。

I can't possibly afford it. It is far too upmarket for me.

我负担不起。这对我来说太高档了。

Also, I'm sure you can find a lot of upmarket shops in Manhattan. Manhattan is a very expensive place to live.

而且我敢肯定你可以在曼哈顿找到很多高档商店。曼哈顿是一个生活水平很高的地方。

So naturally, wealthier people will live there. Thus, you will have more upmarket shops in Manhattan.

Next on our list, we have the word chain stores. Chain stores describes a well-known brand.

连锁店指的是你几乎可以在世界任何地方找到的商店。无论你身在何处,你都会认出这个品牌以及他们出售的产品。

For example, you could probably find a 7-eleven almost anywhere in the world. And even if you can't find a 7-eleven where you are, people usually know what you're talking about and what they sell.

例如,你很可能在世界上几乎任何地方找到 7-11。即使你所在的地方找不到 7-11,人们通常也知道你在说什么,以及他们卖的东西。

这些都是现在用木头封锁的商店。所以这个商店不再营业了,他们用钉子和锤子,用木头把商店封锁了。

A word that we learned earlier to describe boarded up shops can be rundown. It does not look good.

我们之前学到的可以描述倒闭的的商店的词是破败的。它外观不佳。

So again, in the countryside, if you have a huge farm with so many horses or cows, you can have a cattle ranch or a horse ranch. Another thing you might get to see in the countryside is an orchard.

同样地,在农村,如果你有一个大农场,上面有很多马或奶牛,那么这就叫做养牛场或马场。你可能会在农村看到的另一个东西是果园。

This word's a little strange, so let's practice. Orchard, orchard.

当你在谈论农村生活时,你可以说,我们开车走在路上,我真的可以闻到樱桃园的味道。或者他们今天在苹果园有一个特价活动,你可以花十美元装满一篮子。

That is the word orchard. Now vineyard is a lot like orchard, but vineyard just has to do with grapes, because grapes grow on the vine.

这就是果园这个词。葡萄园和果园很像,但是葡萄园只是与葡萄有关,因为葡萄生长在葡萄藤上。

So you have a vineyard, a grape vineyard. Usually, vineyards are very famous for wine.

所以你有一个葡萄园,葡萄园。通常葡萄园以葡萄酒而闻名。

If you live in the countryside where they make a lot of wine, they need the grapes to do that. So you can drive by and see for miles and miles the grape vineyards used to make wine.
