喜樂美語

You can hold on to one shape here: something long, thin and hollow that air moves through. The instrument is the clearest case — a slim silver pipe you hold sideways and blow across. The tall narrow champagne glass is called a flute because it has that same slender tube shape, with the bubbles rising up the inside.

可以抓住同一個形狀：細細長長、中空、有空氣走過去的東西。樂器是最清楚的例子——一根細長的銀色管子，橫著拿，往一個小孔上吹氣。而細高的香檳杯之所以也叫 flute，是因為它有同一種細長管狀的身形，氣泡就沿著那個窄窄的杯身一路往上跑。
