这篇文章来的有些晚，在电脑里存了好久了，是TBC刚刚开放的时候我从官网上摘录下来的，我们来分析下这篇游戏英语对于学英语有什么作用。

Several years have passed since the Burning Legion's（燃烧军团） defeat at Mount Hyjal and the races of Azeroth have continued to rebuild their once shattered lives.（重建破碎的家园） With renewed strength, the heroes of the Horde（部落） and Alliance（联盟） have begun to explore new lands and broken through the Dark Portal（literary- a tall and impressive gate or entrance to a building）（黑暗之门） to investigate the realms beyond the known world. （beyond这个词表示超越或者在...之外，例如书本外的知识可以表述成：knowledge beyond text book）Will these heroes find friends or foes?(敌人) What dangers and rewards lie in wait（潜伏to remain hidden in a place and wait for someone so that you can attack them e.g.a giant crocodile lying in wait for its prey） beyond the Dark Portal? And what will they do when they discover that the demons they thought vanquished（击败literary to defeat someone or something completely）have returned to renew their terrible Burning Crusade?

World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade is the exciting new expansion to Blizzard's award-winning massively multiplayer online role-playing（MMORG大型多人在线角色雷扮演游戏） game. It expands the game by tremendous bounds, adding new races, lands, Battlegrounds, professions and items, and more. Here is just a partial list of what you can expect from the World of Warcraft expansion: 
 

	An increase in the level cap等级上限 to 70 (cap:an upper limit that is put on the amount of money that someone can earn, spend, or borrow这个词用的很简单，但很灵活，不知大家有没有听过NBA里有工资上限的说法，用的也是cap) e.g.a cap on local council spending
	Two new playable races: the Blood Elves （血精灵）and the Draenei（德鲁尼
	Arena-based Player vs. Player Ladder System
	Improved PvP Honor System（荣誉系统）
	New starting zones in Quel'Thalas and beyond
	The entire new continent of Outland（外域）, reachable through the Dark Portal
	Many new high-level dungeons（地下城，也就是我们一般所理解的副本a dark underground prison, especially under a castle, that was used in the past ） to explore in Azeroth, Outland, and elsewhere
	Selectable Dungeon Difficulty Setting副本难度变得可选择（普通和英雄级）
	New flying mounts（飞行坐骑） in Outland
	Many new and dangerous monsters, including epic(史诗级) world bosses
	Hundreds of new quests任务
	Hundreds of new items
	A new profession: Jewelcrafting（加工珠宝）
	Socketed items（有孔物品）
