儿歌介绍

「Down by the Bay」是一首传统儿歌,最著名的版本是由歌手Raffi演唱,并收录与1976年发行的「Singable Songs for the Very Young」这张专辑里。这首歌有可能起源于希腊,因为希腊的一首名叫Yialo Yialo的传统歌谣有着同样的旋律。

Down by the Bay这首儿歌的歌词通常是这样开始的:

"Down by the bay,

Where the watermelons grow,

Back to my home,

I dare not go,

For if I do,

My mother will say:"

之后会有"Did you ever see a _____, _____ing a _____"这样的句式, 空格处通常会使用押韵的词 ,如:

"Did you ever see asnake,baking acake?"

"Did you ever see acat, wearing ahat?"

"Did you ever see awhale, with a polka-dot tail?"

这首儿歌,也称为Silly Song,里面很多内容是搞笑无厘头的。正是通过这种好玩的方式, 让小朋友感受英语中押韵词的魅力 。
