　　和老外在一起聊天，如果你打喷嚏，他们会说"bless you". 但是爱游戏娱乐入口你咳嗽的时候，他们却不这样说。为什么“打喷嚏”会得到如此特殊的待遇呢？

　　一、渊源

　　1. Wishing someone well after they sneeze probably originated thousands of years ago. The Romans would say "Jupiter preserve you" or "Salve," which meant "good health to you" and the Greeks would wish each other "long life."

　　当别人打喷嚏的时候，祝某人安好，这一传统可能来自于几千年前。罗马人会说“木星保佑你”或“安慰”，意思是“祝你身体健康”。希腊人则会互相祝愿“长寿”。

　　（据说在中国，打碎碗时要说“百岁”）

　　Originate[?爱游戏下载?r?d??net]：起源于，来自，产生

　　Jupiter['d??p?t?]：木星

　　Salve [sælv]：vt 减轻内疚感；

　　2. The phrase "God bless you" is attributed to Pope Gregory the Great, who uttered it in the sixth century during a bubonic plague epidemic (sneezing is an obvious symptom of one form of the plague).

　　“上帝保佑你”这个短语来源于六世纪黑死病泛滥时期，出自罗马教皇格雷戈里之口。（打喷嚏是这种瘟疫的一种明显征兆）

　　Utter['?t?]：说，讲

　　Bubonic plague[bj?'bɑn?k] [pleɡ]：黑死病

　　Plague[pleɡ]：瘟疫

　　二、寓意

　　3. For the most part, the various sneeze responses originated from ancient superstitions. Some people believed that a sneeze causes the soul to escape the body through the nose. Saying "bless you" would stop the devil from claiming the person's freed soul.

　　对于打喷嚏的各种反应，大多来自古代迷信。有人认为打喷嚏让灵魂通过鼻子脱离了身体，说“bless you”会阻止恶魔夺走你自由的灵魂。

　　For the most part：大多数情况下

　　4. Others believed the opposite:爱游戏入口 that evil spirits use the sneeze as an opportunity to enter a person's body.

　　其他人则持相反的观点，认为恶灵利用打喷嚏这个机会进入了人的身体。

　　5. We now know that sneezing is a reflex action and is most often the sign of something relatively benign, such as a cold or allergy. A sneeze also can be provoked by being outside in the sunlight or from smelling a strong odor. Still, we persist in the custom of saying "bless you" mainly out of habit and common courtesy.

　　我们现在都知道，打喷嚏只是一种反射行为。通常来说，它可能是某种不怎十分严重的疾病征兆，例如感冒或过敏。在户外阳光下或闻到刺激性气味，也有可能打喷嚏。我们仍然保留着说“bless you”习俗，这是出于一种习惯和公共礼节

　　Benign[b?'na?n]:良好的

　　Allergy ['æl?d?i] 过敏

　　Odor['o?d?]：气味

　　Out of……：出于……

　　Eg：Out of habit and common courtesy: 出于兴趣和公共礼节

　　Courtesy['k?t?si]：礼节

　　今日话题：如果过年时，别人把碗打碎了，你怎么说才会比较得体呢？
