世界杯期間女性永葆美麗的要訣
My fellow trainer, Sylvia Guinan, made me aware of these rules that a husband has laid out for his wife to follow during the 2014 World Cup.
我的同事Sylvia Guinan讓我意識到，熱愛足球的丈夫應該告訴他的妻子在2014世界杯期間需要注意的一些事情。
I think it’s a perfect continuation of my last post of being a football widow and I simply had to share the rules here. I LOVE rule no.6.
我認為這篇文章是上篇文章“成為一個足球寡婦”的完美續篇，在這篇文章里面我分享了八大規則，其中我覺得第六條最重要。
My Dear Wife
親愛的妻子
The Fifa World Cup is close by. Let me give you a few rules that will preserve your beauty.
世界杯錦標賽即將到來。 我想告訴你永葆美麗的一些要訣。
1. The remote control belongs to me for the whole month.
1.世界杯賽期間的一整個月電視遙控器都由我控制。
2. Tell all your friends not to give birth or wed or die or whatever during the World Cup coz we won’t go.
2.告訴你的朋友在世界杯期間無論如何也不要忙著生孩子、結婚或辦喪事，因為我們是不會去的。
3. You support the teams that I support.
3.你必須支持我所支持的隊伍。
4. No talking during the game, wait for half-time or end of the game.
4.比賽期間不要講話嘰歪，等到中場休息或是比賽結束時再說話。
5. Repeats & highlights are as good as the main match, so am gonna watch them.
5.重播和比賽精彩集錦同主要現場比賽一樣精彩，所以我也會看。
6. You don’t just pass in front of the TV if i’m watching football, you better crawl on the floor.
6.當我看球賽時，禁止從電視前面經過，你最好是從地板上爬過去以免影響我看球。
7. Make sure you don’t ask silly questions such as; is this Chelsea versus England?
7.你要保證你不會問一些愚蠢的問題，例如：這場賽是切爾西隊對英格蘭隊嗎?
8. Smile every time EXCEPT when my team is losing.
8.保持微笑，處分是我支持的隊伍丟掉了比賽。

So ladies, we have been warned. What would your response be?

Thank you to Aicha Nezzar for sharing this gem on the Facebook Group- Global English Forum.
非常感謝Aicha Nezzar在臉譜—--世界英語論壇上為我們分享這篇佳作。
In the meantime, here’s a fun song that’s been written by one of my readers, Libby Russell that all football widows will identify with. Enjoy! Thank you for sharing, Libby. It’s brilliant!
與此同時，有一首非常有意思的歌曲來自我們的讀者Libby Russell，是她為所有世界杯期間的足球寡婦所作。非常感謝Libby的分享，太棒了!
Libby has posted the lyrics on her YouTube channel in the comments section, but here they are for you. There are plenty of lovely English expressions and British English slang that I’ve highlighted in bold for you. Can you guess the meaning? What does “OMG” stand for?
Libby把這首歌放在了YouTube頻道的評論部分，我把它摘過來了。我將大量的可愛的表述和英式的俚語都用不同顏色區分開了。你能猜出其中的意思嗎?“OMG”表帶什么意思?
Lyrics
It’s the WORLD CUP, OMG!
I’ve just fallen right down to my knees
Come on England, you’ve got to win
Otherwise th blokes will summer ruin
Come on England, please don’t lose
I just can’t bear the awful moods
Oh please help me
Make it stay away
No good, I’m afraid
Here comes the day
Out come the beers
And plenty of sneers
And all his mates
Well they get in such a state
It’s the WORLD CUP, OMG!
I’ve just fallen right down to my knees
C me on England, you’ve got to win
Otherwise the blokes will summer ruin
Come on England, please don’t lose
It will be all over the news!
It’s small, it’s round
And it seems to send
All our men
Around the bend
Help me, help me
He’s turned into a beast
Shouting, swearing
As he devours a feast
It’s the WORLD CUP, OMG!
I’ve just fallen right down to my knees
Come on England, you’ve got to win
Otherwise the blokes will summer ruin
Come on England, please don’t lose
I wouldn’t want to be in your shoes!
Us poor women
Truly suffer
As he turns into
That old duffer
So I will be cheering
On our lads
Purely so my life
Won’t be quite so bad!
It’s the WORLD CUP, OMG!
I’ve just fallen right down to my knees
Come on England, you’ve got to win
Otherwise the blokes will summer ruin
Come on England, please don’t lose
We’ll be in an awful mood…. If you do!
