重点讲解
1.works:work 不是应该是不可数名词么,为什么这里变成复数的形式呢?因为work 在这儿不表达"工作,劳动",而是"作品,著作",可数并且常用复数,比如:the works of Shakespeare 莎士比亚的著作;the works of art 艺术品。
2.Zeus:宙斯,希腊神话中的奥林匹亚神山上众神的主宰,在罗马神话中,他也叫朱庇特。
3.Halicarnassus :哈利卡纳苏斯,小亚西亚西南部卡里西亚地区的一座希腊古城。希腊历史学家希罗多德的诞生地。
4.Artemis:阿耳忒弥斯,希腊神话中的狩猎和动物之神,同时也主管婴儿的出生。她是太阳神阿波罗的妹妹。在罗马神话中,她也叫狄安娜。
5.Ephesus:以弗所,古希腊殖民城市。在小亚细亚西岸。公元前6世纪为吕底亚王国的工商业中心。
6.Rhodes:罗得斯岛,是希腊的第三大岛,也是欧洲阳光最充足的地方。
