開工日,跟著Libby一邊喝咖啡一邊學英文吧!

When you’re having a nice meal on a plate, you’ll probably want something to wash it down with in a cup. And while you’re eating, why not learn a few idioms related to cups?
當你吃著大餐,你大概會想用杯子配點喝的來清清喉嚨吧!不妨在吃飯的時候,跟著EZ TALK學學跟杯子有關的諺語吧。
Some people like tea, and some people don’t, but what does it mean when you say that 1⃣ something (or someone) isn’t your cup of tea? It means it’s not something you like or have an interest in. Ex: Heavy metal isn’t really my cup of tea. Teacups are obviously made to hold tea, but what if there’s a tempest in a teacup? 2⃣ The phrase “a tempest in a teacup” (or “a tempest in a teapot”) is used to describe a great disturbance or uproar over a matter of little importance. Ex: The protests are nothing more than a tempest in a teapot. You may prefer coffee or tea in your cup, but what if 3⃣ a person is “in his/her cups”? It’s either a really small person, or a really big cup, right? Wrong. It means he’s drunk. Ex: Patrick doesn’t make much sense when he’s in his cups.
有些人愛喝茶,有些人不愛。不過當你說某東西或某人 isn’t your cup of tea是什麼意思?表示「不是你的菜,你沒興趣」。如:Heavy metal isn’t really my cup of tea.(重金屬搖滾不是我的菜。)茶杯當然是用來盛茶的器具,不過要是茶杯裡頭出現風暴,那是怎麼一回事呢?片語a tempest in a teacup/teapot「茶杯/茶壺裡的風暴」是用來敘述無關緊要的小事卻造成極大騷動,也就是「大驚小怪」。如:The protests are nothing more than a tempest in a teapot.(那場抗議不過只是大驚小怪。)你會喜歡杯子裡裝著美味的咖啡或茶,不過要是裡面的東西換成一個人呢?這就得要是非常迷你的人,又或是杯子得要夠大才有辦法吧?錯了。其實片語in his/her cups指的是這人「喝得醉醺醺」,如:Patrick doesn’t make much sense when he’s in his cups.(當派崔克喝掛,他講話基本上沒人聽得懂。)

【世界盃狂熱】熬夜傷身點調理好?
#四強戰今晚又兩點開波 ⚽
#熬夜就算事後補眠也有損元氣
#星期三問題多多
長期熬夜會爆肝?
忽然球迷:「聽人說熬夜的人容易『爆肝』,最近我幾乎晚晚捱眼瞓追看世界盃,我個肝會有事嗎?我不想它爆裂啊!」
CheckCheckCin:
「爆肝」一詞來自台灣,它的意思並非形象地指肝臟爆裂,中醫說的「肝」和西醫的「肝」是不同概念,中醫說的「肝」還涵蓋生理系統、內分泌系統、自律神經系統等,而且五臟的功能環環相扣,根據中醫的「子午流注圖」,凌晨1時至3時為肝的值班時間,這段時間睡覺可以讓肝進行修護工作,全身氣血會歸於肝,由肝來濾化血液。所以一旦熬夜,在這段時間沒有休息,就容易造成肝鬱,進而影響其他臟腑的運作。肝主情志,難怪缺睡的人脾氣特別差,容易發怒。
所以熬夜影響健康,要修補的不是肝臟,其實是需要調理肝鬱、脾胃虛弱的狀況,宜在飲食上加以調理,適量進食疏肝、滋陰的食物,例如花茶、枸杞子、核桃、淮山等,推介沖泡以下茶療,舒緩因為熬夜帶來的不適症狀。
茉莉花雪梨杞子茶
功效:茉莉花能疏肝解鬱,枸杞子養肝明目,適合熬夜人士飲用。
材料:枸杞子10枚、茉莉花6克、雪梨半個
做法:
材料洗淨,雪梨去皮切粒,茉莉花以沸水沖洗一次,全部材料放保溫瓶, 注入熱開水焗約10分鐘至香味透出即可。
Prolonged late nights can hurt the liver?
People say staying up late at night all the time can lead to ‘liver explosion’, I am up a lot lately to watch world cup games, is it hurting my liver? I wouldn’t want it to explode!
CheckCheckCin: Liver from Chinese medicine and western medicine perspectives are a bit different. Liver in Chinese medicine encompasses multiple physiological systems such as endocrine system and the autonomic nervous system. The functions of the five organs are tightly connected as well. From Chinese medicine perspective, the liver is on duty from 1-3am, so if you are asleep during this time, it allows the liver to perhaps repair works. The qi and blood in the body flows through the liver for purification. If you are staying up late and awake in this period of time, then you create liver stagnation and affect its ability to function. The liver also affects your mood, and that’s why people who are sleep deprived seem to be more moody and irritable.
So if you healthy is affected by staying up late, you need to condition the stagnation in you liver and asthenic spleen and stomach. You can try watching your diet and consume more floral tea, wolfberries, walnuts, and Chinese yam. The below healing tea can relieve late night related symptoms.
Jasmine tea with pear and wolfberry
Effects: jasmine tea can relieve liver stagnation; wolfberries nourishes the liver and improves vision; suitable for those with frequent late nights.
Ingredients: 10 wolfberries, 6g jasmine flower, half a pear
Preparation: rinse all ingredients thoroughly. Peel pear and dice. Rinse jasmine with hot water once. Place all ingredients into thermos and steep with hot water for 10 minutes or until the aroma develops.
