 Book Review: The Bilingual Brain: And What It Tells Us about the Science of Language by Albert Costa

Poisson Rouge.
Poisson Rouge en a assez de tourner en rond dans son bocal.
- Peux-tu m'aider à sortir ? demande-t-il à Hoquet le perroquet.
- Où veux-tu aller ? Tu ne sais pas marcher, pas voler, tu vas mourir si je te sors de l’eau.
- Je veux nager dans la baignoire, s’il te plaît, aide-moi !
Hoquet attrape Poisson Rouge par une nageoire et le dépose dans la baignoire. Quelle joie ! Il rencontre un étrange poisson.
- Bonjour, dit-il, comment allez-vous ?
- C'est une éponge, dit le perroquet en riant, elle sert à laver les enfants.
- Vite, replace-moi dans mon bocal, on pourrait me prendre pour une éponge, dit Poisson Rouge. Demain, je voudrais nager dans la mer, tu pourras m’y emmener ?
- Non, dit Hoquet, tu es mon seul ami, tu pourrais être mangé par un requin et j’aurais trop de chagrin.

你不知道的 有趣知识分享

想过你是由什么组成的吗？

不是。①英语中的过去式只用时过去的时态，“了”不一定只用于过去。
       明天下了课就去看电影。（I will go to the movies tomorrow after class.）
       她要是知道了这事肯定要大闹。（If she found out about it, she would definitely make a fuss.）
         ②英语不管是状态还是时间，只要是过去的事情们都要用过去时。“了”只用于过去的事件，不用于过去的状态。错误示例：小时候她很漂亮了。（×）我刚到北京时，妈妈很担心了。（×）我没吃了。（×）
