內容介紹
內容簡介
作者再次訪問加拿大，西起溫哥華，東至蒙特婁，與加美朋友進
行了廣泛交流，收集了他們在交談中自然運用的習慣用語，並以對話形
式編入此書。內容豐實，語言通俗上口，富有現代氣息，反映了九十年代。
北美英語的表達特色。書中對每一成語都作了簡明英漢釋義，並用例句
加深說明。對會話中的必要辭彙也作了注釋。通過本書，讀者可以了解
和學習北美尤其是加拿大風俗、社會、民族特點等文化背景知識，使自
己的英語語言表達更豐富、生動。
本書適合廣大英語愛好者、自學者、英語專業及非英語專業的學生
使用，也對出國人員及外事人員很有幫助。書尾附有加拿大授予學位的
大學和學院介紹，供讀者參考。
為了便於讀者學習，還請EricArthurPeters和EllenFowlerPe－
ters夫婦錄製了盒式磁帶。
