This antique table is made of red oak.

这张古董桌是红橡木制的。

Our first shout out of the week is going to The tigers at Red Oak Junior and Senior High in Red Oak, Iowa.

这周第一个致敬的对象是爱荷华州红橡树初中和高中的老虎队。

We had a right to know what we were up against, he said. He was standing at the head of the table; the rest of us perched on benches, studying the thick planks of red oak.

他说，我们有权知道自己面临何种处境。他站在桌子最前端，我们其余人都坐在长凳上，盯着厚厚的红橡木桌板。

Breakfast became a test of loyalty. Every morning, my family sat around a large table of reworked red oak and ate either seven-grain cereal, with honey and molasses, or seven-grain pancakes, also with honey and molasses.

早餐成了对忠诚的考验。每天早上，一家人围坐在一张翻新过的红橡木桌旁，吃的不是加了蜂蜜和糖浆的七谷物麦片，就是加了蜂蜜和糖浆的七谷物煎薄饼。

But there was a spring night, before I knew that the whippoorwill was actually the chuck-will's widow and that it was insisting, " Chip hell out of the red oak" ! when the spell of the cry brought me from my bed.

但有一个春天的夜晚，我才知道夜莺实际上是夜莺的遗孀，而且它坚持要“从红橡树上砍下地狱”！当哭声的咒语把我从床上拉起来的时候。
