rash: 皮疹 [ 2006-10-06 14:35 ]
這段時(shí)間,“高高在上”的SK-II化妝品可謂行駛在風(fēng)口浪尖上,受害消費(fèi)者的訴訟聲、聲討聲聲聲入耳。國(guó)家質(zhì)檢總局日前宣布SK-II部分產(chǎn)品含有違禁成分鉻、釹,這兩種金屬物質(zhì)含有毒素,可引起過敏性皮炎或濕疹。
請(qǐng)看《新華網(wǎng)》相關(guān)報(bào)道:Last month, China's General Administration of Quality
Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine found chromium and neodymium in nine
SK-II products. The toxic heavy metals can cause dermatitis and skin
rashes. Neodymium also causes harm
to eyes, lungs and liver. They are banned for use in cosmetics in China.
在閱讀理解或聽力試卷中,rash(皮疹)一詞經(jīng)常出現(xiàn),很多應(yīng)試者都把該詞誤解為“草率的、魯莽的”,結(jié)果鬧了不少笑話。
Rash常用來形容“輕率的、魯莽的”,如:I promised in a rash moment to buy him a pet
monkey.(我未經(jīng)考慮竟貿(mào)然答應(yīng)給他買只猴子做寵物。)
不過,rash還可用來指“皮膚病”。若臉上生出許多紅色的小痘痘,癢痛難忍,都可用rash來表達(dá),即我們漢語中的“熱疹、皮疹”??聪旅嬉粋€(gè)例句:He
came in a rash today.(他今天出疹子了。)
