扑克牌对我们来说并不陌生,但你是否知道扑克牌里也有英语的乐趣呢?
“黑桃(spade)”代表橄榄叶,象征和平;“红桃(heart)”象征智慧和爱情;“梅花(club)”起源于三叶草,代表幸福;“方块(diamond)”代表财富｡
扑克牌里的A 指“至尊(Ace)”, K指“国王(King)”, Q指“王后(Queen)”, J是宫内的仆人杰克(Jack),但也有人说是王子或法官(Judge)｡
一年中的时间也可以从扑克牌里找到｡如果要回答:How many seasons/ months/ weeks/ days are there in a year? 等问题,可以参照扑克牌里的四种花色｡这四种花色分别代表一年中的春夏秋冬四季(There are four seasons in a year.);黑桃､梅花代表夜晚,红桃､方块代表白天;J,Q和K共12张,代表一年中的12个月(There are twelve months in a year.)｡除去大､小王,共有52张,恰是一年52个星期的数目(There are fifty-two weeks in a year.)｡每季有13个星期(There are thirteen weeks in a season.),而扑克牌的每种花色正好是13张｡如果计算一下扑克的总点数,J做11点,Q做12点,K做13点,大､小王各做半点,则正好是365点,表示一年有365天(There are three hundred and sixty-five days in a year.)｡若是闰年,则把大､小王各做一点,刚好366天(There are three hundred and sixty-six days in a leap year.)｡
