摘要:初中的童鞋们都知道,game和match都有“比赛”的意思,那表示这层意思的时候game和match有什么区别呢?本文将从这两个词的含义入手教你区分它们。
正文:很多初中同学在写作时对game和match这两个词有点伤脑筋,因为它们都可以表示“比赛”的意思。究竟game和match的区别在哪里呢?今天的初中英语口语我们就来区分下game和match。
一、game的含义基本都围绕着“比赛”1. (有规则的)游戏,运动,比赛项目
eg: Card games were popular in foreign countries for some time.
纸牌游戏有段时间在外国非常受欢迎。
2. (一项)游戏,运动,比赛
eg: They are playing a game of chess in the classroom.
他们在教室里下国际象棋。
3. 比赛(或游戏)时用的手法、技巧
eg: Enough training can help athletes to improve their game.
足够的训练能够帮运动员们提高比赛时的技巧。

eg: Your hat and your dress are a good match.
你的帽子和你的裙子很搭。
三、小结:game和match的真正区别在这里game一般指有一定的规则,而且要靠脑力或体力决定胜负的“竞技”; 而match多指网球、足球、高尔夫球等运动项目的比赛,常用在英国。其次,game既可指室内也可指室外的活动; match一般指室外活动。另外,game还可指网球赛的一局,而match指整个网球赛。
eg: It is said that the golf match will be put off because of the bad weather.
据说由于天气原因,高尔夫比赛要推迟。
Many young people are indulging in computer games.
许多年轻人沉迷于网络游戏。

晚安英文怎么说?睡前你想对谁说晚安?
2019-03-28 17:04:42一线口语小程序最新英语口语学习资料「晚安英文怎么说?睡前你想对谁说晚安?」
摘要:晚安英文大家都知道怎么说,不就是古耐吗?那你就真的错了!晚安英文可不止一个古耐,今天我们来学习晚安英文的花式表达。
正文:说到晚安英文大家都知道是Good night,那么除了Good night还有其它的英文表达吗?当然有啊,每个人都希望晚安这两个简单的字,能有个人一天不落的对自己说一辈子。如果你学会了不同的晚安英文说法,也不失为一个增进感情的方式。今天的日常英语内容我们来聊聊晚安英文怎么说。
晚安英文怎么说
关于睡觉的英文
晚安英文句子
晚安英文睡前故事
一、晚安英文怎么说晚安最常用的英文是Good night,在口语里跟亲密的人可以简化为Night。网络用语中Good night的简写是GN,即Good night的首字母,美国人用99,中国人用88。词汇晚安后面可以附加词汇,如: Good night, dear, sweet, honey.也可以用Sleep well 或者Have a good sleep.表示希望对方睡个好觉。当你跟身处异地的父母或者爱人晚上通电话的时候,说一句Good night and sleep well会更加温馨哦。
关于晚安的英文还可以用Night night,安安的意思。这个词比较适合在深夜的时候说,听起来很温馨,像“安安”,或许对于不是很亲密的人应该慎用。还有sweet dream,做个好梦的意思。sweet dreams也更适合跟关系好一点的人说,否则感觉太热情了。
二、关于睡觉的英文你可以用get some sleep来提示对方去睡觉,否则太累了。这句话并不见得要在晚上上床睡觉的时候说。在任何时候,你都可以说get some sleep。比如说,你白天对办公室一个加班了一个晚上的同事就可以说 (go) get some sleep。类似的表达还有hit the sack, hit the hay, go to sleep。
而睡得香可以用Sleep like a log, Sleep tight, Have a sound sleep, Sleep soundly, Be a heav, sleeper, Sleep like a baby等说法。
三、晚安英文句子Sleep tight my darling.
亲爱的,好好睡吧。
Have a pleasant evening/ night
愿你有一个美好的夜晚。
Sleep when tired and smile when awake.
累了就睡觉,醒来就微笑。
Good night. Sleep tight. Mind the bugs dont bite.
晚安,睡个好觉,当心别被虫咬。
She leaned toward him as he was about to say good night.
他正打算道声晚安,她却向他偎依过来。
Say good night every night, regardless of how you feel.
不管情绪如何,都要每天晚上与对方说“晚安”。
“Good night,”the two words are not especially sweet or important.what makes them important is who is saying it.
不是“晚安”这两个字特别甜蜜和特别重要,而是重要在说的那个人是谁。
四、晚安英文睡前故事In the great green room, there was a telephone, and a red balloon, and a picture of --
在绿色的大屋子里,有一架电话机,一个红气球,还有一幅画——
The cow jumping over the moon. And there were three little bears sitting on chairs.
一幅画上,是一只正在跳过月亮的母牛。还有三只坐在椅子上的小熊。
And two little kittens, and a pair of mittens.
And a little toy house, and a young mouse.
这儿还有两只小猫,一副手套,
一个玩具房子,还有一只小耗子。
And a comb and a brush and a bowl full of mush.
And a quiet old lady who was whispering hush.
一把梳子,一个刷子,一碗浓粥,
一位安祥的老婆婆,正轻轻地说:“嘘……”
Good night, room.
Good night, moon.
晚安,房间。
晚安,月亮。
现在,你知道晚安英文怎么说了吗?快去给你想念的那个人道一声晚安吧~

暖心励志经典:You Raise Me Up
2019-03-28 17:04:42一线口语小程序最新英语口语学习资料「暖心励志经典:You Raise Me Up」
摘要:像YouRaiseMeUp这样经典的歌曲是怎么都听不厌的。欣赏歌曲的同时,我们不妨了解下这首歌的背景知识和主题。一起跟随本文走近这首YouRaiseMeUp。
正文:有多少同学跟小编一样,每次听到You Raise Me Up这首歌都觉得浑身充满力量?这首被翻唱了100多次的You Raise Me Up究竟有怎样的魔力?今天的日常英语口语为大家推荐的就是这首经典的You Raise Me Up。
You Raise Me Up的原唱是谁
You Raise Me Up要表达的主题是什么
介绍几个You Raise Me Up的经典版本
You Raise Me Up歌词欣赏
一、You Raise Me Up的原唱是谁很多中国歌迷第一次听到的You Raise Me Up是由Westlife演唱的版本,可以说真正让这首歌在中国街知巷闻的是Westlife。但其实You Raise Me Up的原唱是爱尔兰乐队Secret Garden。Secret Garden由爱尔兰的小提琴家菲奥诺拉·莎莉与挪威的钢琴家、作曲家罗尔夫·勒夫兰组建。据说两人因为极为相近的音乐理念而相见恨晚,一拍即合。Secret Garden的作品很好地结合了两人的优点,莎莉带来了爱尔兰音乐的空灵缥缈,而勒夫兰则能熟练地运用挪威民族乐及古典乐。这些特点在You Raise Me Up这首歌中也有很好的体现。整首歌流畅自然、恬静深远。至今为止,You Raise Me Up已被100多位艺术家演唱过,有500多个翻唱版本,实在令人惊叹。
二、You Raise Me Up要表达的主题是什么很多歌迷都不清楚You Raise Me Up这首歌的主题是什么。这要从该曲的创作灵感谈起。据说Secret Garden最初是受了爱尔兰民谣Danny Boy的启发才创作了这首歌。Danny Boy的内容其实是一位爱尔兰父亲写给即将从军的儿子的信,歌词里满是哀伤。Secret Garden将Danny Boy改编,才有了后来的You Raise Me Up。所以很多人说You Raise Me Up就是用来歌颂父爱的,这种说法也没有错。首先raise up就是“养育,抚养”的意思;其次,这首歌的源头就是讲父子之情的。但随着这首歌被广为传唱,You Raise Me Up成了一首福音歌,歌里的You成了上帝,成了生活中每一个鼓励过你,帮助过你的人。You Raise Me Up也被翻译成“你鼓舞了我”、“你扶助了我”等。这也解释了为什么You Raise Me Up被广泛应用于911事件纪念仪式、诺贝尔颁奖礼等场合中。所以这首歌从广义上来说更是一首励志、感恩歌曲。
三、介绍几个You Raise Me Up的经典版本1. Westlife演唱版本
Westlife演唱的You Raise Me Up一直广受好评,当时还蝉联英国歌曲榜冠军多周。他们用全新的演唱方式重新诠释了这首歌,让这首经典歌曲焕发出了新的生命力。
2. Celtic Woman演唱版本
Celtic Woman组合的优势在于她们高超的演唱技巧,随便一个成员都是国际歌星的水准。而且她们演唱的版本最接近正宗的爱尔兰音乐,有着淡淡的忧伤和愁绪。
3. Brian Kenny 演唱版本
Brian 是You Raise Me Up的原唱。他浑厚的男声充满着力量,高亢时让人振奋,低吟时让人感恩。
4. Josh Groban 演唱版本
Josh柔和温暖的声音非常符合You Raise Me Up这首歌的暖心励志的主题。在他的演唱中,感恩的气息更为浓烈,很多人说Josh将这首歌提到了更高的层次。
四、You Raise Me Up歌词欣赏When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary.
当我失意低落之时,我的精神是那么疲倦不堪。
When troubles come and my heart burdened be.
当烦恼困难袭来之际,我的内心是那么负担沉重。
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence.
然而我默默的伫立,静静地等待。
Until you come and sit a while with me.
直到你的来临,片刻地和我在一起。
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains.
你激励了我故我能立足于群山之巅。
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas.
你鼓舞了我,故我能行进于暴风雨的洋面。
I am strong when I am on your shoulders.
在你坚实的臂膀上我变得坚韧强壮。
You raise me up, to more than I can be.
你的鼓励使我超越了自我。
There is no life -
世上没有——
no life without its hunger.
没有失去热望的生命。
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly.
每颗悸动的心也都跳动得不那么完美。
But when you come and I am filled with wonder.
但是你的到来 让我心中充满了奇迹。
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.
甚至有时我认为因为有你我瞥见了永恒。
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains.
你激励了我故我能立足于群山之巅。
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas.
你鼓舞了我,故我能行进于暴风雨的洋面。
I am strong when I am on your shoulders.
在你坚实的臂膀上我变得坚韧强壮。
You raise me up, to more than I can be.
你的鼓励使我超越了自我。
关于You Raise Me Up这首歌就给大家介绍这么多。生活不总是一帆风顺的,遇到困难时希望这首You Raise Me Up能带给你勇气和力量。

1.Do you meet your target? (你的目标完成了吗?)
A: Do you meet your target this month?你这个月的目标完成了吗?
B: Yes, thanks God, I can meet the target. But I wonder with Janice. She never meets the target.谢天谢地,完成了。但是我对珍妮丝感到好奇。她从来没有达到过指标。
A: Janice? She is still very young. I don’t think that she can work here for a long time.珍妮丝?她还是太年轻了。我觉得她不会在这里工作太久。
B: Why? By the way, how old is she actually?为什么?顺便问一下,她到底多大啦?
A: She is working, right? so she must be mature. She’s already 24 years old.她已经在工作了,是吧?那她肯定是个成熟的人了。她已经24岁了。
B: But she is still childish. She is also often sensitive.但她还是很孩子气,而且常常很敏感。
A: Age has nothing to do with maturity. She should realise that she works.年纪和成熟并没有什么关系。她应该意识到她工作了。
B: Perhaps she doesn’t like the job.也许她不喜欢这份工作。
A: If she doesn’t like the job, she must find another job.如果她不喜欢这份工作,她肯定找了另一份工作。
B: She’s trying to get another job, but mostly they offered small salary.她正在试着找另一份工作,但通常对方给的薪水都很低。
A: Whatever the job, if she never does the job by heart, it won’t be an enjoyable job. Working is not just about the money, is it?不管是什么工作,如果她不用心做的话,她是没办法乐在其中的。工作不是只和钱挂钩的,不是吗?
B: I agree with you.我同意你的说法。
tips:
①meet one’s target 意为“达到某人的目标/指标”。相当于achieve/accomplish/realize/reach one’s goal。另外,“树立目标”我们可以说set up/establish a goal。
②small salary指“薪水低”。有意思的是,英文中表示薪水“低“我们一般不用low,而是用small来形容。形容薪水我们还可以用以下这些形容词:decent/handsome salary(可观的薪水),humble/ meagre/slender salary(微薄的薪水),expected salary(期望的薪水)。
③by heart指“用心地“,在这里相当于一个副词。还可以与learn, know, get 等动词搭配,表示“默记,牢记”。We had better learn by heart as many sentence patterns as possible.(我们最好尽可能多背句型。)
2. Why did he get angry to you? 他为什么生你的气?
A: You look upset, what’s wrong with you?你看起来不太开心。你怎么啦?
B: Yes, I’m unwell today.是的。我今天不太舒服。
A: Please don’t lie to me. You told me that you went jogging this morning, didn’t you? Please be honest to me. Who knows I can help you.别骗我。你跟我说过你今天早上还去慢跑了,不是吗?跟我说实话吧,或许我可以帮你呢。
B: Actually Mr. Scott got angry to me just now.其实是因为刚刚斯科特先生对我发火了。
A: Why did he get angry to you?他为什么对你发火呀?
B: I have done a fatal mistake.我犯了个大错。
A: What’s that?什么错?
B: I had sent the wrong goods to customer so that we lost millions rupiahs.我给顾客送错了货,害得我们损失了几百万卢比。
A: How come? You’re really careless! You should be more careful in doing thing.怎么会这样呢?你太大意了。你做事应该更认真一些。
B: I made mistake in putting the address on the package. I didn’t do it intentionally. I feel guilty, and I have apologized.我在包装上填地址的时候出了错。我不是有意的。我很内疚,也道了歉。
A: Yes I know it. But it’s useless to regret thing has been done. Don’t make any mistakes again.嗯,我知道。后悔已经发生的事情是没有意义的。不要再犯错了。
B: Alright, I think you right. I promise I won’t do it again.是的,你说得对。我保证不再犯这样的错误了。
tips:
①What’s wrong with sb? 是问候语的一种,通常用来询问对方“怎么了,发生了什么事”。要表达类似的意思还可以用What’s the matter with you?/What happened to you?/What’s come over to you?/What’s going on?等等。更口语化一点的表达是What’s up?(咋啦?)
②How come? 表示“怎么回事,怎么搞的,怎么会这样?” 用法相当于why。后面可以接句子也可以不接。例如:How come we never know what’s going on? (怎么我们一点都不知道发生了什么?)
③it’s useless to do sth. “做某事毫无意义/用处“,相当于It makes no sense to do sth./There is no point in doing sth.
3.Have you filled out the withdrawal slip? 你填了取款单吗?
Customer: Can you help me? I want to take some money out.你能帮我吗?我想取些钱出来。
Banker: Surely, Sir. Have you filled out the withdrawal slip?当然了,先生。你填了取款单吗?
Customer: Yes I have.填了。
Banker: How much would you make a withdrawal, Sir?你想取多少钱呢,先生?
Customer: Rp. 3.500.000 please.3500卢比。
Banker: Which account would you make a withdrawal from?你从哪个账户取?
Customer: I want to take out from my checking account, please.我想从我的活期存款账户取。
Banker: Alright, I will set up your transaction. Please sign right here, Sir.好的,我会帮你办理这项业务。请在这里签字。
Customer: How long is the process?手续大概要多久?
Banker: Just a few minutes Sir. What else can I help, Sir?几分钟就好,先生。我还有什么能帮你的吗?
Customer: Nothing. Thank you for helping me.没有了。谢谢你的帮助。
Banker: Please don’t mention it, Sir. Thank you.不客气,先生。
tips:
①withdrawal slip,指在银行柜台取款时要填的“取款单”。slip 原意为“纸条”。
②checking account,指的是“活期存款账户”,与之相对的是time deposit account “定期存款账户“。
③set up transaction,transaction多指“交易“。但在银行业中,它指的是”业务“。因此,该短语意为”办理业务“。
4.How much is the initial deposit? 起存金额是多少?
Banker: Good morning Ma’am, how may I help you?早上好,女士,需要帮忙吗?
Customer: I want to open an account.我想开户。
Banker: Alright Ma’am, what account would you like to have?好的,你想开什么类型的账户?
Customer: Savings account, please?储蓄账户,可以吗?
Banker: Would you please fill out this application first?你能先填写下这张申请表吗?
Customer: Sure. Here it is.当然。给你。
Banker: May I have your copy of ID, please?能给我你的身份证复印件吗?
Customer: Sure. How much is the initial deposit?可以,起存金额是多少呢?
Banker: Rp. 100.000 Ma’am. And you will also get an ATM card.100卢比。然后你会拿到一张银行卡。
Customer: Alright, I will put Rp. 500.000 in my account.好的,我放500卢比到我的账户。
Banker: Thank you Ma’am. Could you please sign on this line?谢谢,你能在这一栏签字吗?
Customer: Sure. Thank you.好的,谢谢。
Banker: You’re welcome. Thank you for banking with us, Ma’am.不客气女士,感谢你来我们银行办理业务。
tips:
①initial deposit指的是“起存金额,开户金额”,在银行开户后需存入一定的金额。
②ATM card, ATM的全称为Automatic Teller Machine,意为“自动提款机”。
③Thank you for banking with us.值得一提的是句中的bank为动词,表示“办理业务”。
5.Dont Forget to Drop Me a Line! 不要忘了给我写封信
Adriana: I heard youre moving to New York.我挺说你要搬到纽约啦?
Ryan: Yes. Ive got an offer in upstate New York.是的,我在上纽约州得到了一份工作。
Adriana: Oh, thats great! But Im going to miss you.噢,太好了。我会想你的。
Ryan: Me, too. Lets keep in touch.我也是。我们保持联系吧。
Adriana: Yeah. Dont forget to drop me a line when you settle down.好。等你安顿下来了不要忘了给我写封信。
Ryan: Trust me. I wont. Ill keep you posted.相信我,我会给你写信的。我会随时告诉你发生了什么。
Adriana: You have my address?你有我的地址么?
Ryan: Well, I have your e-mail address.我有你的邮件地址。
Adriana: All right! I look forward to hearing from you soon. Good luck!好的。期待早点收到你的来信。祝你好运!
tips:
①upstate New York 指“纽约上州“。这里科普一下地理知识。美国口语中,上纽约州泛指纽约州除了纽约市及长岛地区以外的所有纽约州,并无官方或正式的行政界线,该区主要以家庭居住的市郊为主。upstate New York 和downstate New York之间并没有明确的界限,只是由于纽约市地处纽约州的最南端,居住在纽约市的人,往往把纽约市以北的整个纽约州都称为纽约上州。
②drop sb. a line 指“给某人写封信”,通常指很短的信件,相当于drop sb. a note,但是这种表达没有前者正式。Drop其他的搭配还有drop by,drop in on(顺便拜访)等等,值得大家注意。
③keep sb. posted表示“随时告知某人某事”。类似的表达有keep sb. informed of sth. 例句:I’ll keep you posted if there is any change.(有什么变动的话我会告诉你的。)

Margaret: Yeah. Its been years since we did this together.距离我们上次聚会也已经有很多年了吧。
William: I know. Maybe around 5 years.我知道。大概5年了。
Margaret: Well, anyway, a drink to our friendship!无论如何,为我们的友谊干杯!
William: Cheers!
干杯!
tips:
①I haven’t seen you for ages. “好久不见“。我们日常生活中还会说Long time no see.或者Havent seen you for a while.
②A drink to our friendship! 这是饭桌上的常用语,表示“为我们的友谊干杯!“表达这类意思,我们还可以说“I propose a toast to…”, “Lets have a toast to…”等等。
7.Why dont you have a heart-to-heart talk with her? 为什么你们不谈谈心呢?
Roger: So, how is your new roommate?你的新室友怎么样?
Martha: She really turns me off.她真的很讨人厌。
Roger: What happened?发生了什么?
Martha: Shes always making loud noises at midnight and when I remind her, she always makes rude remarks.她半夜的时候经常制造噪音。每次我提醒她的时候她都对我恶语相向。
Roger: Why dont you have a heart-to-heart chat with her?你为什么不和她谈谈心呢?
Martha: I tried, but it didnt work.我试过,但是不管用。
Roger: But how many times did you try?你试了几次啊?
Martha: At least three times. I guess Im going to complain to the manager. I hope she can be evicted.至少3次。我想我会去跟经理投诉。我希望她能被赶出去。
tips:
①Turn sb. off表示“让某人觉得讨厌”。例句:She really turned me off when she called my nickname.(每次她叫我小名的时候我都觉得她很讨厌。) 另外,turn off意为“关掉……“,如,turn off the light(关灯)。
②have a heart-to-heart chat “交心,谈心“。heart-to-heart在此处做形容词用,为”名词-to-名词“的形式。这一类词还有face-to-face(面对面的),back-to-back(背靠背的)。不加连字符的时候多作副词使用,比如 hand in hand(手拉手), shoulder by shoulder(肩并肩)等等。
③It doesn’t work.相当于It doesn’t help.,表示“不起作用,不奏效“。
8.Honesty is the best policy! 诚实为上策
Terri: How are things going with you and your roommate?你和你的室友相处得怎么样啦?
Jon: Not very well. Were supposed to share the groceries, but I end up feeding him three meals a day. My grocery bill is huge, you know. I really cant afford it any longer. 不太好。我们本应该分摊食品杂货费用的,结果我承担了他的一日三餐。你知道的,这样我的食品开销就很大。我真的承担不起。
Terri: I know how you feel. I used to have a roommate like that. He never offered to reimburse me for anything. 我了解你的感受。我以前也有一个这样的室友。他从来不补偿我任何开销。
Jon: Im really fed up with his freeloading, but I just dont know how to tell him that he should come up with half the grocery bill, because sometimes he treats me to a meal in a restaurant.我真的受不了他这样“吃空饷“,但是我又不知道该怎么跟他说他应该承担一半的费用,因为他有时候会请我到餐馆里吃饭。
Terri: Well, honesty is the best policy. Maybe you just want to have a heart-to-heart, friend-to-friend talk with him. If he refuses to mend his ways, then ask him to move out. You cant let him wear out his welcome.诚实为上策。或许你应该跟他谈谈心吧。如果他屡教不改的话,那你就让他搬出去。他待得越久就越不受欢迎。
tips:
①How are things going with…? 表示“事情进展得怎样”或“与……相处得怎样”。有时候我们也会说How do you get along with…?
②Freeloading这个词地道的中文表达是“吃空饷”,是个贬义词,表示“利用别人慷慨占便宜”,也指“不劳而获”。Without a penny on him, Jack freeloaded his way across America from Los Angeles to New York. (身无分文的杰克靠着别人的帮助从洛杉矶到纽约横越了整个美国。)
③wear out one’s welcome 这个表达非常形象。Wear out“磨损,损坏”,因此可以推断出这个词组大致的意思是“使某人不受欢迎”。查阅词典可知,其意为“逗留得太久而使人生厌”。还有一种表达为overstay one’s welcome。
9.I Didnt Sleep a Wink Last Night! 我昨晚一夜没合眼!
Sydney: Steve, you look pale. What happened?史蒂夫,你看起来脸色苍白。发生了什么?
Steve: I didnt sleep a wink last night.我昨晚一夜没合眼。
Sydney: Did you have something on your mind? You look so concerned! Maybe I can help you!你有心事么?你看着很焦虑。或许我可以帮到你。
Steve: Well, Im under a lot of pressure. My boss is very pushy. He assigned me three projects. Now the deadlines are near, and I still havent finished all of my projects.我承受着很大的压力。我的老板逼得太紧了。他给我分了3个项目。截止日期快到了,我的项目还没有完成。
Sydney: Is there anything I can do to help you?有什么我可以帮你的吗?
Steve: Well, I guess no one can help me but myself! For the moment, I just need someone to talk to so that I can relieve my stress.
我想除了我自己,没人帮得了我。现在我只想找个人聊聊,释放一下我的压力。
tips:
①dont sleep a wink 表示“一夜没合眼“。表示”一夜没睡“还可以说don’t get a wink of sleep, lay awake the whole night。
②have something on one’s mind “心事重重“。类似的表达还有很多,如weigh heavily on one’s mind, have a thoughtful mind, with a heavy heart等等。
③relieve stress 指“释放压力”,“释放”还可以用release。表达相反的意思,“承受压力”,我们可以说be under pressure, withstand pressure, suffer from pressure。
10.I Was All Over the Bed the Whole Night Last Night!我昨晚一整晚翻来覆去

Sylvia: I broke up with Paul last night and I was all over the bed the whole night.昨晚我和保罗分手了,一整晚翻来覆去睡不着。
Jeanette: Well, its understandable, but Paul isnt the kind of guy that deserves your heartache. Come on. Youll find a nicer guy soon.可以理解。但是保罗不是那种值得你这样费心的男孩。加油,你一定会找到更好的。
Sylvia: Well, I was restless because I was thinking how I was so stupid that I almost trusted the rest of my life to him....我平静不下来是因为我一直在想我太傻了,居然差点对他托付终身。
Jeanette: Oh, Sylvia....噢,西尔维亚。
tips:
①all over the bed“翻来覆去,无法入睡”,相当于toss and turn in bed。
Worry can keep you awake, tossing and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep.(担忧会使你在床上翻来覆去睡不着,一直到凌晨终于入睡。)
②break up with sb.“分手”。相关的表达还有cheat on sb.(对伴侣不忠);cut one’s ties(一刀两断)。
③trust the rest of one’s life to sb. 就是我们常说的“托付终身“。
11.Ive got a pretty tight schedule 我时间表排得很紧

Victor: Id love to, but Ive got a pretty tight schedule today.我也想,但是我今天的时间表排得很紧。
Cynthia: Oh, what have you got going on?哦,你要忙些什么呢?
Victor: Well, Ive got to finish a report by ten. Then I have to drive to the airport to pick up a client of mine at eleven. After that, Ill have a meeting with him over lunch. I guess I wont have a break until two oclock. But then from three until five, I have to attend a senior staff meeting.唉,十点之前我要完成一份报告。十一点我要开车去机场接我一个客户。之后我要和他边吃午餐边开会。我想我两点之前是没有时间休息的。但是三点到五点,我得参加一个高级职员会议。
Cynthia: Wow, thats cutting it close.哇,你的时间排得真紧。
tips:
①get/have a tight schedule,这里的schedule指的是“时间表,日程表“,tight schedule自然就指的是”时间表排得很紧“。
②have a meeting over lunch, over lunch指的是“午餐时间”,这个短语指的是“边吃午餐边开会”,也就是我们常说的“午餐会议”。随着现代人时间观念的增强,这种形式的会议越来越常见,因为它既能节省时间,又能使会议氛围轻松愉快。
③cut it close指“抠得很紧,几乎不留任何余地”,这里同样指的是“忙碌,没有空闲“。I have a lot of work to do, so I have to cut it close.(我有许多工作要做,所以我要把时间排得紧紧的。)
12.It slipped my mind. 我忘记了。
Erica: Ive sent out the invitations for the dinner party. 我已经把晚宴的邀请发出去了。
Manuel: Thats good. Now what should we do?很好。现在我们应该做什么呢?
Erica: Weve got to plan the menu.我们必须要计划一下菜单了。
Manuel: Oh, thats right. Do you have anything in mind?哦,是的。你有什么想法吗?
Erica: I think Im going to make the chicken salad we had at Pompa last time. Remember I asked the chef for the recipe?我想我会做上次在庞帕社区吃的鸡肉沙拉。你记得我还跟厨师讨教过烹饪方法吗?
Manuel: Yeah, but did you forget that Linda doesnt eat chicken?是哦,但是你忘了琳达不吃鸡肉的吗?
Erica: Linda? Oh, my Gosh! I forgot to invite her! Shell be mad at me. It just slipped my mind.琳达?哦,天哪,我忘了邀请她!她会生我的气的。我忘记了这件事。
Manuel: Well, its not too late yet. Ill make a phone call. Dont worry.现在还不晚。我给她打个电话。别担心。
Erica: Thanks! I think Im getting old!谢谢!我想我是老了。
Manuel: Looks like you ARE!看起来是。
tips:
①have something in mind“有些主意或想法”。值得注意的是,这里我们不能把它跟前面提到过的have something on mind混淆。后者指的是“有心事,有烦恼”。
②recipe的基本意义为“食谱,烹饪方法,配方”等等,它还可以引申为“做某事的方法、秘诀等”。常用搭配为recipe for sth.
③It slipped my mind. 相比I forgot it., 这个表达更加形象。slip意为“滑落、溜走”,slip one’s mind也就是说“从某人的脑中滑落、溜走”,即“忘记”。Mailing the letter slipped my mind. (我忘记寄信了。)
13.He Flared up at Me! 他朝我发火!
Judy: You look like youre fuming. Whats going on?你看起来很生气。发生了什么?

Andy: I only made a few more copies, and I didnt think it was any big deal, but he blew up at me! 我只不过是多复印了几份文件,我觉得这没什么大不了的,但是他突然对我发火了。
Judy: Well, he has been under a lot of pressure recently. The company has been losing money and hes been a little bit depressed. 他最近压力挺大的。公司一直在亏损,他有点沮丧。
Andy: Well, I know he has the blues, but it doesnt mean he can vent his anger on me.我知道他心情不好,但这并不代表他可以把火撒在我身上。
tips:
①flare up at sb,“朝某人发火”。对话中还出现了许多同义词,如blow up at sb./ vent anger on sb.。
②make a mountain out of molehill“小题大做”。Molehill原意指“由鼹鼠挖洞扒出的泥土堆成的小土堆”,make a mountain out of molehill “用鼹鼠挖洞扒出的泥土堆成的小土堆垒一座山”即暗指“小题大做”。
③have blues“心情不好”。blue一词在前面已经详细介绍过,不再赘述。
14.Im out of quarters. 我没有硬币了。
Bonnie: Oh, thats great! The washing machine is out of order again.噢,好吧,这台洗衣机又出故障了。

Bonnie: Yeah, but nothing happened. Ive got to complain because this has happened so many times.按了,但是没有什么反应。我要去投诉,这种情况发生好几次了。
tips:
①out of order指“杂乱无章;出故障;反常”,这里指机器出故障。表达这层意思我们可以说break down, fail等词。如The machine broke down/failed.(这台机器出故障了。)
②out of quarters表示“没有硬币了”。短语out of 表示“没有……”,quarter指硬币,a quarter指的是美国和加拿大的25分硬币。

B: That would teach him a good lesson.这样能给他一个教训。
tips:
①firebug, 本意为“萤火虫”,但在美语口语中,该词意为“纵火犯”。

A: How many rich people do you know?你认识几个富人呢?

①be burned to the ground 指“被焚毁,被夷为平地”。还有一个形近短语be dashed to the ground意为“希望破灭,一败涂地”。
②have to do with表示“与……有关”,跟have something to do with用法一致。另外还有be related/connected with等等也可以表达这个意思。

tips:
①split ends指“发梢分叉”。It’s also fallen down.指“脱发”。
②conditioner,值得注意的是,conditioner除了用于我们常说的air conditioner(空调)中表示“调节器”以外,这里指“护发素”,跟后面的hair vitamin意思相近。
③hairspray,发胶。其他与头发有关的用品有shampoo(洗发水),hair mask (发膜),hair dye (染发剂)。

A: You have so much care about animal welfare.你非常关心动物福利啊。

tips:
①die from“死于……”,另外一个表达是die of。两者的区别在于,die from 指死于原因,如事故、自然灾害等; die of 指死于内部原因,如疾病、衰老、情感、饥饿等。
②stray animal “流浪动物”。Stray意为“走失的,无主的,流浪的”。
③animal welfare“动物福利”。科普一下,动物福利的概念最早是1976年美国人休斯(Hughes)提出的,它是指农场饲养中的动物与其环境协调一致的精神和生理完全健康的状态。动物福利所强调的,不是我们不能利用动物,而是应该怎样合理、人道地利用动物,要尽量保证那些为人类做出贡献和牺牲的动物,享有最基本的权利。通俗地讲,就是在动物的饲养、运输和屠宰过程中,要尽可能减少其痛苦,不得虐待动物。

tips:
①How long have you been in Canada? “你到加拿大多久啦?”have been in “在某地待了多长时间”。大家通常会把这个短语和其他两个短语混淆:have been to, have gone to。have been to意为“曾经去过某地”,现在已不在那里了,常与ever, just, never等词连用。如:
They have ever been to the Great Wall。(他们曾经去过长城。)have gone to意为“到某地去了”,说话时作句子主语的人不在现场,通常是第三人称作句子的主语。如: —Where is Tom? —He has gone to the post office。—汤姆去哪里了?—他去邮局了。
20.Greetings in Business 商务问候

B: Hi Mia. Im David Sinclair, and this is my partner Gina Evans. (hold out hand to shake)嗨,米娅。我是大卫 辛克莱尔,这是我的搭档吉娜 伊万斯。

A: Thank you.谢谢你!

②take a seat=have a seat“请坐”。
③be right with“马上就来”。
21.Greetings at a Party 宴会上的问候

A: Actually, Jane is my cousin. Our moms are sisters.事实上,简是我的表妹。我们的妈妈是姐妹。
B: No way! You two dont look anything alike.没门!你们两个看起来一点也不像。
tips:
①used to do “过去常常做……”,暗指“现在不做了”。有些同学会将其和另外2个句型混淆:be used to doing是指“习惯于做某事”,其中to是介词;be used to do“被用来做某事”,实质上是use的被动语态。
②You two dont look anything alike. “你们俩看起来一点也不像。”alike,表语形容词,“相像的”。

tips:
①We couldn’t ask for a better day, could we? 这是一个反义疑问句,“没有比这更好的天气了,不是吗?”。
②I heard he is calling for rain all weekend. “我听说一整个周末都要下雨。”句中的he指的是the weather,这里用了拟人化的手法。
③Im sure you make good money with that diamond watch you have on. “我相信你肯定用你这块金刚钻赚了不少钱”。这里用了比喻的手法,diamond watch并不是指“钻石手表”,而应该是我们常说的“金刚钻”,即“某种专业的技能”。
④cast vote for “为……投票”。
⑤Ill use this time to catch up on my reading. “我要用这段时间补上我的阅读”,catch up on“补上”。You should get out your English books and catch up on your reading assignments.

Woman 2: Uh, thanks. Well, I better go and jingle. There are a few people I havent said hello to yet.哦,谢谢。我得去跟大家聊聊了。有几个人我还没有跟他们打招呼呢!
Man: OK! 好的!
tips:
①on strike,“罢工”。
②take a dip in the pool ,dip意为“浸泡”,这里指“在泳池游泳”。
③Well, I better go and jingle. jingle 原意指“发出叮叮的响声”,根据后文的There are a few people I havent said hello to yet.可以推断出这里jingle应该指“说话,聊天”之类的意思。
24. At the Office (在办公室里)

如何起一个好听的英文昵称
最个性的英文昵称带翻译
一、这些英文昵称不建议使用中文中我们常常会给人取昵称,比如王华,家人朋友可能会叫他华华、华子、小华等,但这样的称呼听上去真的low到爆。英文里也一样,经常出现在课本里的John,Tom,Mike,Bob在现实中也随处可见。其实这些昵称在老外眼里非常奇葩。比如什么Tony,Mary,Lily这些昵称,老外听到就像你听到“狗蛋”、“兰花”的感受一样。所以不建议大家使用出现次数太多烂大街的英文昵称。
二、如何起一个好听的英文昵称1.名字不能太偏。不要起一些类似iphone,Gucci等听上去很奇葩的名字,既没办法判断性别,也会让人觉得无厘头,听上去不太靠谱的感觉。
2.名字要简单好记。一般英文昵称1-2个音节的词就可以了,容易发音,又好记。一旦名字太复杂,念个名字对别人来说都是一种折磨。
3.名字里蕴涵一定的意义。如果你喜欢自己成功,可以叫Victoria,如果你喜欢自己魅力,可以取Rachel。
4.与中文名相近最好。比如有些人名字里有“琳”。她的英文名可能会是Lynn或Linn,这样容易记寓意也好。
三、最个性的英文昵称带翻译Ava 生命,源于拉丁语
