1。I am terrible. I am horrible.

我很¾pŸç³•ã€‚表½Cø™‡ªå·Þqš„状态不好ã€?/p>

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
˜q™å¥òq¶ä¸æ˜¯è¯´æˆ‘很可怕或恐怖的意思。terrible¾˜ÀLˆä¸­æ–‡çš„意思是¾pŸç³•ã€‚像是有‹Æ¡æˆ‘问班上同学上‹Æ¡äؓ什么没来上è¯? 他的回答æ˜? I am so terrible. I keep skipping my classes。他的意思是说他很糟¾p? 常常在è؜课。有时他们也会用 terrible 来åŞ容一个教æŽ? He is so terrible, ž®±æ˜¯è¯´è¿™ä¸ªè€å¸ˆæ•™çš„很烂, 而不是说他很会当人。要是用 terrible 来åŞ容一样东è¥? 则表½Cø™¯¥æ ·ä¸œè¥¿å¾ˆ¾pŸç³•, 例如形容食物, å¦?The food is terrible, 说的当然ž®±æ˜¯é£Ÿç‰©å¾ˆéš¾åƒäº†!
Horrible è·?terrible 的意思可说是一模一æ ? 两者可以互换ä‹Éç”? 例如, The coffee is horrible. 或是Our professor is horribleã€?


2。That movie was a turn-off.

那部电媄真是让我倒尽胃口。Turn-on则指你喜‹Æ¢çš„东西ã€?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Turn-off ž®±æ˜¯è®©ä½ å€’胃口的东西, è€?turn-on 则是你非常喜‹Æ¢çš„东西ã€?例如你说 She is a turn-offã€?ž®Þp¡¨½Cø™¯´ä½ å¯¹å¥ÒŽ˜¯ä¸€ç‚¹å…´­‘£éƒ½æ²¡æœ‰ã€?要是 She is a turn-on, 那就表示你对她蛮有兴­‘£çš„ã€?此外, turn-on è·?turn-off 也可以当成一¿Uä¸ªäººå–œå¥½ä¸Šçš„æ ‡å‡? 比如说征友吧, 你说, 我不惌™¦ä½ŽäºŽ 160 cm çš? 则低äº?160 ž®±æ˜¯ä½ çš„ turn-off, 也等äº?What's notã€?如果说我喜欢住在¾ŸŽå›½çš? é‚?"住在¾ŸŽå›½" ž®±æ˜¯ä½ çš„turn-onã€?另也有äh说把turn-on说成 What's hotã€?æŠ?turn off 说成 What's notã€?大家可以看情况自行运用ã€?

Turn on 当成动词的时候也非常普遍, 例如你可以说, The movie totally turns me off�或是 she turns me off�


3。Do you take money?

你们要收钱吗?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
很多东西真的一定要先问清楚才行, 天底下真的没有白吃的午餐˜q™ç§äº‹æƒ…ã€?ž®¤å…¶¾ŸŽå›½çš„一些大城市路上有很多街头艺äº? ½I¿ç€å¥‡è£…异服, 有些观光客好奇拿著照相机喀喳一å£? 他就跑过来跟你要é’׃º†ã€?有一‹Æ¡æ›´æ‰¯ã€?我同学说我们大家跟他合照一å¼? ¾l“果他每äºø™·Ÿæˆ‘们收一块美金ã€?哪有˜q™ä¹ˆå¥½èµšçš„事? 但是照片都照了又不能说不¾l™ã€?所以出国观å…? ˜q™ç§½Ž€å•çš„句子一定要熟记ã€?Do you take money? 要是他说 Yes, 再问ä»?How much? ˜q™æ ·æ‰ä¸ä¼šåƒäºã€?
˜q™å¥è¯ä½ ä¹Ÿå¯ä»¥ç®€å•åœ°é—? Is it free? 但是记得, There's no such thing as a free lunchã€?看到有äh站在那里, ž®Þp¯¥å¿ƒé‡Œæœ‰æ•°äº†ã€?/p>

4。Have you ever seen a silver dollar?

有没有看˜q‡ä¸€å…ƒçš„¼‹¬å¸?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
老美的硬币每个都有一个名å­? 一分钱å?penny, 五分æ˜?nickel, 一角是 dime, 二角五是 quarter, 大家都知é? 另外有一元的¼‹¬å¸è¾ƒå°‘è§? å?silver dollar, 想看的äh可以åŽÀLŠ•é‚®ç¥¨è‡ªåŠ¨è´©å–æœ? 它就会找你很多一元的¼‹¬å¸, 另外值得一提的æ˜? 各位如果有机会去赌城大西‹z‹åŸŽçŽ? 一定要找一个叫 nickel paradise 的地æ–?, 里面的吃角子老虎都是投nickel çš? 保证可以让你玩到手酸ã€?
另外, 老美习惯上把 dollars 也讲æˆ?bucks, 例如十元你可以说 ten dollars 或是 ten bucks 二个都十分常用ã€?至于千元, 你可以说 one thousand 或是 one grand 都是千元的意思ã€?(注意一ä¸? 二千的话æ˜?two grand 而不æ˜?two grands ˜q™ä¸ª grand 是不加复数的ã€? 最新消æ? ¾ŸŽå›½è‡?1999 òq´è“v, 规定各州可以发行自己çš?quarterã€?所以现在美国境内所‹¹é€šçš„ quarter 可说是五花八é—? 所以下‹Æ¡å†æ‹¿åˆ° quarter 时不妨多看两çœ? 有兴­‘£çš„话大家一èµäh¥æ”‰™›†!


5。I'm so glad you're getting married.

我很高兴你要¾l“婚了ã€?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marry ˜q™ä¸ªå­—就是结婚的意æ€? 可是要注意的æ˜? 「我要结婚ã€?˜q™å¥è¯ä¸èƒ½è¯´æˆ? "I will marryã€? ä¸ÞZ»€ä¹ˆå‘¢? å› äØ“˜q™ä¸ªå¥å­çŠ¯äº†ä¸¤ä¸ªé”™è¯¯, ½W¬ä¸€ä¸ªé”™è¯¯æ˜¯ã€Œç»“婚」老美不单è®?marry, 而说 get married。因为单è®?marry 是表½Cºå«æˆ–娶的意æ€? 在这里是一个及物动è¯? 必须有受词ã€?例如我要娶她ž®±æ˜¯"I will marry her"ã€?½W¬äºŒä¸ªé”™è¯¯æ˜¯å¯¹äºŽå·²ç»è®¡åˆ’好「要」作的事æƒ? 口语上要ç”?be going to, 而非will。所以如果你è¯?I will get married"。指的是, 我将来「想」结å©? 但什么时候新娘是谁都˜q˜ä¸çŸ¥é“。但 "I'm getting married" 指的则是我「要」结婚了, 臛_°‘新娘已经选好äº? 而且婚礼在近期内ž®Þp¦ä¸¾è¡Œäº†ã€?
¾l¼åˆä»¥ä¸Šçš„理ç”? 老美很少会讲 "I'm so glad you will marry." 而多半是, "I'm so glad you're getting married." 不信你下‹Æ¡æ³¨æ„å¬å¬çœ‹, 老美他们都是怎么说的!


6。He is in the pink

他感到èín体很好。in the pink是表½C?íw«ä½“很健åº?¾_‘ÖŠ›å……æ²›"的常用语ã€?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
当一个äh告诉ä½?He is in the pink,那你ž®ÞqŸ¥é“他肯定感到íw«ä½“很好。in the pink˜q™ä¸ªä¹ æƒ¯ç”¨è¯­çš„出处说法各有不同。有的ähè¯?in the pink˜q™ä¸ªä¹ è¯­å¯èƒ½æ˜¯æ¥è‡ªè·‘马场,å› äؓ在那é‡?äºÞZ»¬ç”¨in the pink来åŞ定w‚£äº›çœ‹èµäh¥å¾ˆå¥å£®çš„马。但æ˜?有的人有不同的看æ³?他们认äؓ凡是íw«ä½“健康的äh,他们的皮肤都会呈çŽîC¸€¿Uç²‰¾U¢è‰²çš„å…‰æ³?ž®±åƒæˆ‘们说有的äh脸色很好,白里透红一栗÷€‚这些äh认äØ“in the pink˜q™ä¸ªè¯´æ³•ž®±æ˜¯ä»Žè¿™å„¿æ¥çš„。例å¦?

在美å›?邻里关系也各有不同。有的地斚w‚»å±…å…³¾pÕd¾ˆå¯†åˆ‡,互相照应,来往很多。有孩子的家庭往往会互相合ä½?轮流接送孩å­?˜q™æ ·å¤§å®¶éƒ½å¯ä»¥çœç‚ÒŽ—¶é—´ã€‚美国äh¾lå¸¸è¦å‡ºåŽÀL—…è¡?é‚Õd±…关系好会带来很多方便,å› äؓ在你出门的时å€?你可以请é‚Õd±…替你‹¹‡èŠ±ã€å–‚猫、收取邮件等。更重要的是,好的é‚Õd±…会经常关心你的家,万一发现有可疑的人想乘虚而入æ—?他就会及时替你报警。但æ˜?也有的地æ–?é‚Õd±…没有来往。有的äh在一个地方住了好几年˜q˜åƒé™Œç”ŸäºÞZ¸€æ —÷€?

7。May I have a glass of water?

可以¾l™æˆ‘一杯水å?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
老美吃饭的习惯菜未上桌前一定会先给你一杯冰开æ°? ˜q™ç‚¹ä¹ æƒ¯æ˜¯å’Œæˆ‘们是大不相同ã€?但我听过某些留学生来¾ŸŽå›½ä¹‹åŽž®Þp¢«åŒåŒ–äº? ˜qžå›žå°æ¹¾æ—¶åƒé¥­å‰éƒ½è¦å€’一杯冰开æ°? ¾l“æžœ˜q˜è¢«è€å¦ˆè®­æ–¥äº†ä¸€™å? 在这里要提醒大家的是, çŽÈ’ƒæ¯çš„讲法å?glass, 而非 cupã€?Cup 指的是喝咖啡的那¿Uæ¯å­?(有时也可以叫马克æ?mug)ã€?所以你跟别äºø™¦ä¸€æ¯æ°´, 比较好的讲法应该æ˜?a glass of water, 而非 a cup of waterã€?反之如果惌™¦ä¸€æ¯å’–å•? 则要ç”?a cup of coffee 比较好ã€?
˜q™é‡Œå†æå‡ÞZ¸€ä¸ªæœ‰­‘£çš„问题, 一定是çŽÈ’ƒ glass 作的「玻璃杯」才能叫 glass å?? ½{”案是否定的, 事实上那¿Uå…‹z—的塑胶æ? 有时候也可以勉强½Ž—是 glassã€?å› äؓ我就看过很多‹Æ¡æœ‰äººé—®, "Do you have a glass?"

8。I don't like my wife *ing around.

我不喜欢我老婆泼妇骂街�

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
一般男生总觉得女生唠å? ˜q™ä¸ªå” å¨åœ¨è‹±æ–‡ä¸­ž®±æ˜¯ *ã€?˜q™ä¸ª * 在英文中有很多意æ€? 它可以指母狗, 也可以用来骂女生, 而当动词用时, 则是唠叨的意思ã€?例如, My girlfriend *es me all the timeã€?我女朋友æ€ÀL˜¯å” å¨æˆ‘ã€?或是你可以用 * around ˜q™ä¸ªç‰‡è¯­ã€?有点像是中文泼妇骂街的味道ã€?/p>

9。I'll figure it out later.

我等下会把它想通。figure out指想通一个问题�

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
老美说想通一个问题或是解决一个问题很喜欢ç”?figure out ˜q™ä¸ªç‰‡è¯­ã€?例如你要问äh家一个问é¢? 你就可以è¯? How do you figure this out? (你是怎么惛_‡ºæ¥çš„å‘€?) 或是 work it out 也很常用, 也是解决问题的意思ã€?例如你跟你的同学一起作功课, 你就可以è¯? OK, Let's work it out togetherã€?

10。You stood us up again.

你又放我们鸽子了�

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
æ”ùN¸½å­æœ€æ™®éçš„用法是 stood someone upã€?例如你看到有äºø™¯´å¥½äº†è¦åŽ»¾U¦ä¼š, 却垂头ä“á气地回来äº?, 你就可以问他, "He stood you up?"ã€?æ”ùN¸½å­çš„另一个说法就æ˜?no-show, 例如他放你鸽å­? 你就可以è¯? "He is a no-show"ã€?

no-show: 预定座位而不来的客ähã€?/p>

no-show

n [C] someone who does not arrive or appear somewhere they were expected to be, for example at a restaurant or a meeting
    The bad weather meant there were a lot of no-shows at the game.

11。He has a screw loose somewhere.

他有点不太正常�

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
screwæ˜?èžÞZ¸", looseä½?杄¡š„"解。所ä»? to have a screw loose从字面上来解释就æ˜?一个螺丝松äº?。作ä¸ÞZ¸€ä¸ªä¿—è¯?它的意思就æ˜?某äh的脑子不正常,å› äؓ他脑子里有些地方的接头松了。下面的例句是一个äh在回忆他大学里的一个同å­?
I knew a guy at college who had a screw loose somewhere-he was scared to death of catching a disease so he'd run off to wash his hands after he shook hands with anybody. 我在念大学的时候认识一个äh,他有点不太正常。他非常å®Ïx€•å› æŸ“上病而死,所以他每次和别人握˜q‡æ‰‹ä»¥åŽæ€ÀL˜¯è¦é©¬ä¸ŠåŽ»‹z—手ã€?

Everybody thought these two brothers had a screw loose somewhere when they built this silly-looking machine and claimed it could carry a man up in the air. But people stopped laughing when this "crazy thing" actually flew. 当那兄弟俩造了那个看è“v来挺怪的机器,˜q˜è¯´é‚£æœºå™¨èƒ½è®©äh在天上飞的时å€?每个人都认äØ“˜q™å…„弟俩不正常。可æ˜?当那ä¸?怪物"真地在天上飞了以å?大家ž®±å†ä¹Ÿä¸½W‘话他们了ã€?

12。I need a place to stay.

16。What utilities am I responsible for?

17。That cut looks very gross/nasty.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That cut looks very gross/nasty. ˜q™ä¸ªä¼¤å£çœ‹è“v来非常地恶心ã€?

18。Your jeans are so filthy.

你的牛仔裤真脏�

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Filthy å’?dirty 都是肮脏的意思。像以前我室友刚ä¹?X-Box æ—Óž¼Œçˆ±æƒœçš„要命，每次都警告我们，"Don't touch my X-Box with your filthy hands."(别用你们的脏手碰我的 X-Boxã€? 除了 filthy å’?dirty 之外åQŒsticky å’?greasy ˜q™ä¸¤ä¸ªå­—老美也常用来形容肮脏åQŒä½† sticky 是特别指「黏黏的」，è€?greasy 则是指「æÑa腻腻的」。比方说我每‹Æ¡åˆšåƒå®Œä¸œè¥¿è¦çŽ©æˆ‘室友的 X-Box 之前åQŒä¸€å®šéƒ½ä¼šå…ˆæŠŠæ‰‹‹z—干净åQŒå†å‘Šè¯‰ä»–，"I'll never touch your X-Box with my sticky/greasy hands." (我绝对不会用我的脏手¼„îC½ çš?X-Box çš„ã€? 不然˜q™ä½è€å…„可是会跟你翻脸的ã€?
另外 dirty 除了实质上的肮脏之外åQŒä¹Ÿå¯ä»¥å½“成「下‹¹ã€æ¥è§£é‡ŠåQŒè€Œå¦ä¸€ä¸ªåŞ容词 nasty 也有同样的意思。例如，"Stop talking dirty to me." (不要跟我讲一些下‹¹çš„话ã€? 或是 "You have such a nasty mind."

(我就喜欢你说些性变态的话ã€?

19。I can't feel my hands/My hands fell asleep.

我的手麻了�

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
¾ŸŽå›½å£è¯­çš„趋势是用两三个比较常用的字来代替一个比较少见的字。例如这个句子就是最好的例子之一。手éºÀLŽ‰äº†ï¼Œ˜q™ä¸ªã€Œéº»ã€å­—毫无疑问的可以用numbåQŒæ‰€ä»¥ä½ å¯ä»¥æŠŠè¿™å¥è¯è¯´æˆåQ?My hands are numb." 但是因äؓ前面提到的这个口语简单化驱势åQŒè€ç¾Žä»¬ä¼šç”?can't feel ˜q™ä¸¤ä¸ªæ¯”较常用的字来代替 numb。也ž®±æ˜¯è¯´è€ç¾Žé€šå¸¸æ˜¯è®²åQ?I can't feel my hands."
同样的道理，当你因äØ“íy²å¤ªä¹…而脚éºÖMº†åQŒå°±å¯ä»¥è¯ß_¼Œ"I can't feel my legs." 或是 "My legs fell asleep." 当你吃的东西太èÇG了，以致于整个嘴巴都éºÀLŽ‰äº†ï¼Œ˜q™æ—¶ä½ å¯ä»¥è¯´åQ?I can't feel my tongue/ mouth. It's too hot." 大家有没有觉得学¾ŸŽè¯­æ˜¯ä¸æ˜¯çœŸçš„很½Ž€å•ï¼Ÿåªè¦è®îC¸€äº›ç®€å•çš„字就能变化出许多不同的用法ã€?/p>

20。Hand it to me right now.

现在ž®±æŠŠå®ƒäº¤¾l™æˆ‘ã€?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
我有时会注意到老美的一些用字，虽然我能了解åQŒä½†è‡ªå·²ä»Žæ¥ä¸ä¼šåŽÈ”¨çš„。例如老美è®?head homeåQŒä¹Ÿž®±æ˜¯ go home 的意思。像˜q™ç§ç”¨æ³•å½“然我一听就能懂åQŒä½†è¦æˆ‘自己ç”?head home ž®±æ¯”较难了。同æ ïLš„例子也发生在 hand ˜q™ä¸ªå­—上åQŒä¸€èˆ¬æˆ‘们都喜欢è®?give it to meåQŒä½†å¦‚果你注意一下老美的讲话习惯，他们也常è®?hand it to meã€?
不过以上所丑ևºçš„例子，head/ go å’?give/ hand 其实跟个äºÞZ¹ æƒ¯å’Œåœ°åŸŸæœ‰å¾ˆå¤§çš„关系。像我一些从南方各州来的同学åQŒæˆ‘ž®±å¬ä»–们常用 head æˆ?hand 当动词，但是我今òq´çš„新室友是从纽¾U¦æ¥çš„，他看到我½W”记上写 head home ˜q˜é—®æˆ‘这是什么东è¥?,他说他向来只会用 go / giveåQŒä½†å¾ˆå°‘ç”?head / handåQŒç‰¹åˆ«æ˜¯åƒ?"Where are you heading?" ˜q™ç§è¯ä»–是从来不会讲的ã€?/p>

21。Not a soul in sight.

半个人媄也没有�

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
˜q™å¥è¯ç®—是固定的用法. Soul 在这里就是指äºø™€Œè¨€. 记得有一‹Æ¡è·Ÿè€ç¾Žå‡ºåŽ»çˆ¬å±± , 只见一望无际的‹‚®æž—, 适逄当时有一部很¾U¢çš„电媄 Blair Witch Project 讲得也是三个大学生在‹‚®æž—里面˜q¯‚µ\çš„æ•…äº? 大家走到后来心里都毛毛的, å› äؓ半个人媄也没æœ? 有一个老美ž®Þp¯´äº†è¿™ä¸€å? "Not a soul in sight."
如果讲的不是äºø™€Œæ˜¯å…¶å®ƒçš„东西的è¯? 则用 "Not a thing"ã€?例如别äh问你, "Did you see anything in the bush?" 要是你什么也没看åˆ? 你就可以回答, "Not a thing"ã€?

22。I thanked him an awful lot.

我非常地感谢他�

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
我想各位读者对äº?a lot ˜q™æ ·çš„用法都不陌生。A lot ž®±æ˜¯å¾ˆå¤šçš„意思，也就相当äº?so many (用于可数名词)åQŒæˆ–æ˜?so much (用于不可数名è¯?。比方说今天本来晚餐是打½Ž—少吃点åQŒæ²¡æƒ›_ˆ°é¥­åŽå¦ˆå¦ˆå±…然又煮了红豆小汤圆åQŒæ‰€ä»¥åˆ°å¤´æ¥˜q˜æ˜¯åƒå¤ªé¥×ƒº†ã€‚è¿™¿Uæƒ…冉|ˆ‘ž®±å¯ä»¥è¯´åQ?I ate too much tonight." 或是 "I ate a lot today."。但是呢åQŸè€ç¾Žå…‰è®² a lot ˜q˜ä¸˜q‡ç˜¾åQŒä»–们又æŠ?a lot ˜q™ä¸ªç‰‡è¯­åQŒç¡¬æ˜¯åŠ ä¸Šä¸€ä¸?awful (恐怖的) 变成äº?an awful lotåQŒæ„å³ä¸ä½†æ˜¯å¾ˆå¤šåQŒè€Œä¸”是「恐怖」地多。例â–?p "I ate an awful lot." ž®±æ˜¯è¯´åƒçš„东西多到恐怖的地步åQŒå¯èƒ½è‚šå­éƒ½èƒ€èµäh¥äº†ã€?
基本上，所有包å?a lot 的句子都可以加上一ä¸?awful 而变成比较夸张的讲法。比方说吧，a awful lot ˜q™æ ·çš„用法常被用在表达自å·Þqš„谢意或是感谢人家的帮忙时。例如，"I thanked him an awful lot." (我非常地感谢他ã€? 或者是 "I owe her an awful lot." (我亏‹Æ å¥¹å¤ªå¤šäº†ã€? 加上 awful 可以表现å‡ÞZ¸€¿Uå‘自内心，ç”Þp¡·åœ°æ„Ÿè°¢å¯¹æ–¹çš„诚意ã€?/p>

23。He is completely retarded.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

25。I saw a girl throw herself on him.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

28。The cops are after me.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The cops are after me" ˜q™å¥è¯çœ‹æ¥ä¼¼ä¹Žåªæ˜¯å•¾U¯åœ°æŒ‡è­¦å¯Ÿåœ¨æˆ‘后é? 但这ä¸?after 在这里也可以解释æˆ?running after 的意思ã€?意思就是有人在后面˜q½æˆ‘ã€?例如电媄上常看到¾|ªçŠ¯è·‘回老窝之后ž®±æ€¥å¿™åœ°è¯´, "They are after me"ã€?也就是说有äh在追我啦! 当然˜q½ä½ çš„对象不限于äº? 记得我的一个老美朋友有一‹Æ¡è·Ÿæˆ‘讲åˆîC»–的冲‹¹ªç»éªŒã€?他说, "A shark was after me" (一只鲨鱼在˜q½æˆ‘), 听来真是乱恐布的ã€?/p>

29。How many pages did you end up with?

你的(报告)最后有几页?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
依照大多æ•îChçš„ä¹ æƒ? 「你的报告最后有几页」这句话通常会把它翻译成, "How many pages did you get finally?" 是不是啊? 但事实上如果是老美来说˜q™å¥è¯? 他们会说的是, "How many pages did you end up with?" 也就是说, 当老美提到「最后」这个概忉|—¶, 他们通常用的æ˜?end up ˜q™ä¸ªç‰‡è¯­ã€?所以如果你要说, 「看了那么多的房子之å? 我们最后还是买了湖边的那栋房子」就æ˜? "After seeing so many houses, we ended up buying the one on the lakeside."
所ä»?End up 也有「最后有什么样¾l“果」的意æ€? 再ä‹D个六äºø™¡Œ (Friends) 里面的例å­? 有一‹Æ?Monica é—?Rachel 和牙åŒÕd¸ˆ¾U¦ä¼šçš„结果怎样? 她的回答ž®±æ˜¯, "We ended up having * on his chair." (我们¾l“果在他的椅子上发生关系) Monica 听了之后差点没昏倒ã€?我想大家不难从这几个例子当中发现, 在许多地方用 end up 会比 finally 来得更äؓ恰当ã€?/p>

男主角：I got it over there. It's a steal.

　　在一部电视片剧集中，男女主角在èµ\辚wœ²å¤©å’–啡室聊天时说上述两句话ã€?/p>

　　假如你不看中文字òq•ï¼Œå¬åˆ°˜q™ä¸¤å¥è¯ä¼šæ€Žæ · 理解呢？

　　It's a steal 是不是指½W”是åäh¥çš„å‘¢åQŸç”·ä¸»è§’是贼吗？

　　非也åQŒéžä¹Ÿã€?/p>

　　我们可用上文下理来理解这句地道英文口语的意思�/p>

　　女主角说Nice pen是因为看到男主角有一枝漂亮的½W”，˜q™å¥è¯è‡ªç„¶æœ‰èµžç¾Žçš„意思，即“这½W”蛮别致的”ã€?/p>

　　男主角答åQšI got it there, 再说it's a steal.

　　A steal 是英¾ŸŽæµåˆ©å£è¯­ï¼ŒæŒ‡â€œæžå»‰å®œçš„东襎쀝ã€?/p>

　　男主角不是贼。他说的话意思是åQšâ€œæˆ‘在那边买的，很便宜。â€?/p>

　　ç”׃ºŽcheap有低劣蹩脚之意，于是˜q‘å¹´‹¹è¡Œç”¨it's a steal取代it's cheapã€?/p>

　　七十òq´ä»£å‡ºç‰ˆçš„梁实秋ä¸È¼–的《最新实用英汉辞典》中åQŒsteal˜q˜æ²¡æœ‰ä¾¿å®œè´§çš„释义，可见it's a steal是近òq´æµè¡Œçš„口语ã€?/p>

　　说到字典åQŒæ¯”方你听到外籍朋友说three hundred dollars for this
dictionary - isn't that a bit steep�/p>

　　Steep在句中是什么意思呢åQ?/p>

　　ç›æ€¿¡å¤§å®¶ä¸ä¼šæŠŠsteep解作“陡峭”或“险峠Z€å§åQŒåŽŸå› æ˜¯˜q™ä¸¤ä¸ªé‡Šä¹‰åœ¨æ±‰è¯­ä¸­ä¸èƒ½ä¸Žå­—典搭配ã€?/p>

　　大家应可猜到steep解作“昂è´?”。这话的意思正是“这本字典要三百块钱åQŒæ˜¯ä¸æ˜¯è´µäº†ä¸€ç‚¹ï¼Ÿâ€?/p>

　　学了˜q™ä¸ªæƒ¯ç”¨æ³•åŽåQŒä½ è¦è¯´â€œé‚£æ‰€æˆ¿å­ç´¢ä­h六百万元是太贵了点”，自然可以脱口说出åQšSix million dollars for that house is a bit steep.

　　除了steepåQŒæŒ‡â€œæ˜‚贵”的常用英文单词有四åQšexpensive, costly, pricey,
dear。五六十òq´ä»£å¸¸åœ¨æ•™ç§‘书看到的dear现在已甚ž®‘听到外国äh用了。试举两个例å?br />åQ?/p>

　　Meat is dear this week. åQˆè¿™ä¸ªæ˜ŸæœŸè‚‰å¾ˆè´µåQ?/p>

　　Diamonds are very dear. åQˆé’»çŸ³ä­h格非常昂贵）

　　˜q™äº›å¥å­åªèƒ½åœ¨è‹±å›½æ—§ž®è¯´ä¸­çœ‹åˆ°ã€‚在çŽîC»£è‹±æ–‡å£è¯­åQˆmodern colloquial

　　且听以下三句电视对白åQ?/p>

　　男主角在车行看中了一辆名牌è‹É车，于是问推销员：How much does it cost?åQˆè¿™è¾†èžR多少钱？åQ?/p>

　　售货员答åQšIt comes to $15,000.åQˆä¸€ä¸‡äº”千块åQ?/p>

　　男主角面带不悦之色说åQšIt's a rip off.åQˆè´µå¾—太¼›»è°±äº†ã€‚）

　　Rip off 在美丽俚语中有“敲ç«ÒŽ â€çš„含义。这也是英汉用词的åéy合ã€?/p>

　　后来男主角还是忍痛买了那车。他åŽÀLŽ¥æœ‹å‹æ—¶è¯´åQšIt cost me an arm and a

　　大家猜到˜q™å¥è¯æ˜¯ä»€ä¹ˆæ„æ€å—åQ?/p>

　　è‹Þq¾Žäººçš„俚语åQˆslang and colloquial expressionsåQ‰å¤§éƒ½å¾ˆå½¢è±¡åŒ–，‹zȝµ‹zȝŽ°åQ?br />¾l˜å£°¾l˜åª„ã€?/p>

手一脚，真要命，引äŽ×指“非常昂贵”ã€?/p>

　　It cost me an arm and a leg指“那车花了我很多钱”�
