  • bird's-eye view(自高處俯視的)全景
    bird's-eye view 字面為「鳥眼看到的景觀」,鳥類棲於枝頭,居高臨下,四周景色自然一覽無遺,故指「(自高處俯視)的全景」。
      I had a bird's-eye view of Kaohsiung while looking out the window of the plane.
        我從飛機窗戶鳥瞰高雄的全貌。

    Dialogue 1 
    Casey and Joe are discussing their upcoming class field trip to the zoo.
    凱西和喬在討論即將到來的動物園戶外教學。
    Casey: I can't wait until Friday when we get to spend the whole day at the zoo! 凱西: 我們星期五整天都會在動物園,我快等不及了!
    Joe: Whatever! Zoos are boring. I don't want to go and spend all day looking at smelly animals. 喬: 隨便啦!動物園最無聊了,我才不想花一整天的時間去看一堆臭乎乎的動物。
    Casey: You still have to go. We each have to pick an animal at the zoo, observe it, and write a five-page report on it. 凱西: 你不想去也得去。我們每個人都得在動物園裡選一種動物觀察,然後寫五頁的觀察報告。
    Joe: What? I never heard our teacher say that. I don't believe you. 喬: 什麼?我沒聽老師說啊,少唬人了。
    Casey: It's true. You were busy doodling and not paying attention when our teacher told us the assignment. 凱西: 是真的。老師宣佈的時候,你忙著塗鴉,根本沒在注意聽。
    Joe: Oh, no. This trip isn't going to be the least bit fun. 喬: 喔,不。這場戶外教學會一點都不好玩。
    Casey: Well, think of it this way: you get to kill two birds with one stone. You don't have to sit in class all day and you can learn to love animals more. 凱西: 嗯,換個角度想,這是個一舉兩得的機會,你不必整天坐在教室裡,還可以開始學習喜歡動物。
    Dialogue 2 
    Casey and Joe have arrived at the zoo with their class.
    凱西和喬跟著班上同學到了動物園。
    Casey: Hey! What is everyone looking at over there? Is that the elephant area? 凱西: 嘿,大家在那裡看什麼?那邊是大象區嗎?
    Joe: Yes, it is. I can smell them already. I'm going to go find an air-conditioned room somewhere. 喬: 對啊。我已經聞到牠們的味道了。我要去找個有冷氣的地方。
    Casey: Joe, I've thought of the perfect animal for you: a polar bear. It's nice and cool there. 凱西: 喬,我想到最適合你的動物了,就是北極熊啊,那一區很不錯,挺涼爽的喔。
    Joe: You know, I think you're right. Polar bears and I both like the cool, we both like to swim, and we both like to take long naps. 喬: 嗯,對呀。我跟北極熊都喜歡涼爽的環境,我們都喜歡游泳,而且我們都喜歡在白天猛睡。
    Casey: What are you waiting for? The polar bear area is quite a ways away. You'd better get going. 凱西: 那你還在等什麼?北極熊區離這裡挺遠的,你最好趕快去。
    Joe: What animal are you going to study, Casey? 喬: 那妳要研究什麼動物,凱西?
    Casey: A koala, of course. They are cute, cuddly, quiet, and they don't move much. See you later! 凱西: 當然是無尾熊囉。牠們好可愛,讓人看了就想抱,又安靜,不會亂動。待會見囉!
