专题限时集训(九) 词义猜测之推测单词、短语、句子的含义
A
Not
all awards are as noble as the Nobel Prize，which
is world-famous for giving
prizes to people
who made progress in literature，science，economics
and—perhaps
most importantly—peace，even though
most countries have a system for
recognizing，
honoring and rewarding people who
have done something good in their
countries，
there are now hundreds of awards and
awards ceremonies for all kinds of things.
The
Oscars are probably the most famous，a time for the
film industry to tell
itself how good it
awards are not only for films—now there are also
Grammies，
Brits，the Mercury Prize and the MTV
and Q awards for Britain，a writer
who wins
the Booker prize，can expect to see their
difficult，literary novel hit
the bestseller
lists and compete with
The
Da
Vinci
Code
for Turner
Prize
is an award for a British contemporary artist —
each year it causes controversy
by apparently
giving lots of money to artists who do things like
displaying their
beds，putting animals in glass
cases or—this year—building a garden shed.
Awards don't only exist for the are now
awards for Sports Personality
of the Year，for
European Footballer of the Year and World
Footballer of the
seems very strange —
sometimes awards can be good to give recognition
to people
who deserve it，or to help people who
are on tight budget carry on their work without
worrying about finances，but professional
soccer players these days are not shy of
fund!
Why have all these awards and ceremonies
appeared recently? Shakespeare never
won a
prize，nor did Leonardo Da Vinci.
Most awards
ceremonies are now sponsored by big organizations
or
means that not only the person who wins
the award benefits from it — but also the
MTV
awards，for example，are great for publicizing not
only music，
but also MTV itself!
On the
surface，it seems to be a “win-win” situation，with
everyone being happy，
but let me ask you a
question — how far do you think that publicity and
marketing
are winning here，and how much
genuine recognition of achievement is taking
place?

scene：it's blowing outside，
and you snuggle
(蜷伏)up on the sofa under a warm quilt，chatting and
recalling with
your closest friends.
That
content，cosy feeling，has a name in Danish — ，as
Denmark recently
won the title of “the
happiest country in the world”，the concept of
hygge is known
to more and more people
interested in finding ways to understand this
concept.
Hygge — originally from a Norwegian
word meaning well-being — doesn't have
an
exact equivalent (对应物)in 's often translated as
coziness，or as
blogger Anna West told the
BBC，“coziness of the soul”．But，professor Maren
Spark
explains，“Hygge was never meant to be
was meant to be felt.”
Basically，hygge
involves creating a warm，cosy atmosphere and
enjoying it with
your loved winters are long
and dark，so achieving hygge is particularly
relevant during this season.A typical hygge
activity during winter could be enjoying
delicious homemade food and light-hearted
conversation with friends — preferably
in the warm glow of candlelight，or
maybe sipping a glass of wine in the hot tub
after a day spent skiing.
However，hygge
isn't only limited to the cold winter months —it
can also describe
that warm，fuzzy feeling you
get after a walk through a forest with friends on
a
summer's day or a family barbecue in the is
meant to be shared.
