英文谜语同中国谜语一样有着极其悠久的历史，其中最为有名的大概是斯芬克司之“谜”了。

“斯芬克司”一词源自希腊语sphinx，是希腊神话中一个可怕的怪物，它长着女人的头、狮

子的身躯，身上还有两只翅膀。传说中，狮身人面的女怪斯芬克司生性残酷无比，常常守在

大路口，让过往的行人猜一个谜，猜错了就要被吃掉。有一次，一位国王的儿子被斯芬克司

吃掉了，国王一怒之下，发出悬赏：“谁能把它制服，就给他王位。”青年俄狄浦斯(oedipus)

应召前去，很快就道破谜底，斯芬克司便自杀了。这个世界著名的谜语是：whatgoesonfour

feet,ontwofeet,andthree,butthemorefeetitgoeson,theweakeritwillbe.

其谜底是ehecrawlsfirst,thenwalksontwofeet,usacanewhenold.

因为人在婴儿时用四肢在地上爬行，成人后两腿行走，年老后拄拐杖走路，所以谜底是“人”。

这

whatgoesonfourlegsatdawn,twoatnoon,andthreeatdusk?该个谜语还可以这

样说：

谜语采用了描写其特征的方法，英语中这种谜语被称为事物谜，也叫做描述性谜语

(descriptiveriddles)。事物谜的谜面通常是用比喻、暗示或其他方法来描绘所猜谜底的特

征，和汉语中物谜的谜面构成及猜测方法基本相同。

2)whatstartswitht，endswithtandfulloft？谜底是“ateapot”。teapot(茶壶)

一词以字母t开头和结尾，而茶壶里装的自然是茶(tea)，所以是fulloft。

3)thelongestwordintheworld.谜底是“smiles”。这个单词的首字母和尾字母之间是单

词“mile”(英里)，可以理解为首尾间有一英里长，自然就是世界上最长的单词了。猜这个

字谜时，千万不要去翻词典去找一个字母最多的单词。

2)whatisthecheapestwaytoetheworld？

谜底是“buyanatlas”。买一张地图(buyanatlas)就可以见到整个世界(etheworld)

了。而其实etheworld作为一个固定词组时的意思是“见多识广”。

有些貌似简单，谜底却耐人寻味。如：

whatgoesupandnevergoesdown？谜底是“age”。年龄是永远向上增长，不可能下降

的。还有一些则语出惊人，出人意料，细细品味倒也幽默风趣，让人哑然失笑。

例如：

whyshouldyounevermarryatennisplayer？谜底是“becaulovemeansnothingto

them”。love的通用义是“爱情”，在网球比赛中则表示“零分”。

英文智力谜语中有一类比较难猜，这类谜语是通过篡改英语谚语、成语或名句而形成的，要

猜出这些谜语就必须对这些谚语、成语了如指掌，否则，就是绞尽脑汁也未必能猜中。略举

例说明一下：

1)whyshouldntyoucryifacowslipsontheice?

谜底是“becauitsnoucryingoverspiltmilk.”

英语中成语“覆水难收”是这样表达的：“itsnoucryingoverspiltmilk.”所以谜底

就用成语作一戏言，因为母牛摔在地上，它身上的牛奶也洒了。

2)whatsasculptorsmotto?

谜底是“allworkandnoclaymakesjackadullboy.”

雕塑师(sculptor)的格言allworkandnoclaymakesjackadullboy.(只工作没有土，

聪明孩子也变傻。)是模仿谚语allworkandnoplaymakesjackadullboy.(只工作不

玩耍，聪明孩子也变傻。)杜撰而来。英语100题
