Fun Facts about Swimwear
─Owain McKimm


Summer is over, but there are still a few weeks of good weather left for swimming. To get you in the mood to put your bathing suit on, take a look at these interesting facts about swimwear.

Skin Exposure
These days, beachgoers can get away with wearing very little, but a hundred years ago things were quite different. At the turn of the twentieth century, women had to wear long dresses at the beach. In 1907, an Australian swimmer was even arrested for wearing a suit that revealed her arms and legs. This attitude began to change in the 1930s when sunbathing became a popular activity.

Bikinis
The modern bikini was invented in 1946 and named after a group of islands in the South Pacific. Here, the United States tested bombs. Most likely, the bikini's French inventor hoped that the public's reaction to his new swimsuit design would be similarly "explosive." Although bikinis appear to be modern, wall paintings that date back to at least 1600 BC show women who are dressed in clothes that look very similar to today's bikinis.

你不知道的泳裝趣聞

夏天結束了,但還剩幾個星期的好天氣可以游泳。為了讓你想要穿上泳衣,來看看這些關於泳衣的趣事。

裸露皮膚
在當今,海灘客們可以穿得很少也不會被罰,但一百年前情況可不是這樣。在二十世紀之交,婦女在海灘上必須穿長洋裝。一九○七年時,一名澳洲泳客甚至因穿著一件露出手臂和腿的泳裝而遭到逮捕。這種看法在一九三○年代日光浴成為受歡迎的活動時開始改變。

比基尼
現代的比基尼是一九四六年發明的,以南太平洋上的群島命名。美國在這裡測試炸彈。最有可能是因為比基尼的法國發明人希望大家對他新的泳裝設計有類似的「爆炸性」回應。雖然比基尼看起來似乎很新潮,但回溯到至少西元前一千六百年的壁畫上就有穿著看起來非常類似今天比基尼的女性。

Hold your horses! 等一下;且慢!
hold your horses以字面意思「勒住你的馬」比喻「不要急;慢慢來」,與 slow down 意思相近。
A: See you later, Mom. I'm going out with my friends.
媽,待會見。我要跟我朋友出去。
B: Hold your horses! Have you finished your homework?
等一下!你作業寫完了嗎?
