随着英语这种语言的普及,英语水平成了大学生走向社会的通行证。为帮助大学生轻松掌握英语知识,特提供以下文章:


L:今天教授把考卷发还给我们了,Michael,你考得好吗?

M: I did much better than I expected. It was a lucky break that I knew most of the answers.

L:你考得比你预期的好,那太好了。不外,你说什么又是lucky,又是break的?Lucky不是好命运吗?Break是歇息,对不合错误?

M: Lucky break together means something good that happens that you were not expecting.

L:噢,lucky和break这两个词放在一路,它的意思就是没有预料到的好命运。Michael,你适才那句话是怎么说来着?

M: I said: it was a lucky break that I knew most of the answers.

L:我懂了。你是说,你没有想到命运会那么好,大大都考题的谜底你刚好都知道。

M: Yeah, that's right. If you understand, give me an example.

L:哼,我当然懂了,你还要考考我呐?那天我开车开的飞快,差人让我把车停下来。可是他只给了我一个警告,而没有给我罚单,我可没想到会有这种好命运。这可以说是一个lucky break吧?

M: That was a lucky break. I think it was because the police officer found you attractive.

L:差人因为看我标致才不给我开票?你别开玩笑了!不外,那次可命运,否则至少要罚我五十美元。让我想想还有什么例子可以用lucky break这个说法的。

M: Well, the paper that's due in two days, I...

L:对了,教授要我们在两河汉交陈述,Michael,你还没有起头脱手吧!幸好教授推迟了期限,让我们下礼拜一交。这对你来嗣魅真是个lucky break吧?

M: Let's go to lunch to celebrate our good luck.

L:浩揭捉?,去吃午饭,庆祝我们的好命运。

(Michael和李华到了吃饭的处所)

L:啊呀,这个处所太闹了!

M: Yeah, you're right. It'll be hard for us to have a conversation here. Let's go to a place that's more mellow.

L:对,在这里讲话都听不到。到此外处所去吧。Michael,你适才讲什么more mellow?

M: I said that let's go to a place that's more mellow, meaning someplace more calm and relaxing.

L:噢,more mellow的意思是斗劲舒适,斗劲放松。那也就是说到一个不太闹的处所去,对不合错误?

M: Yeah, you can use the word mellow to describe a person too.

L:Mellow也可以用来形容一小我,那今天我们的教授很舒适,我可不成以说:She was mellow today!

M: Yeah, let's go the cafe near the library.

L:太好了,这个处所很舒适。我们来看看菜单。哟,你看,再过五分钟就瞥绶减价了,三明治今天半价。我们命运可真浩揭捉?!

M: Well, we found the mellow place and we pay half price. Really a lucky break. Worth celebrating too.

L:对,找到舒适的处所,还只付半价。真值得庆祝。你多吃点吧,晚饭就别吃了

M: Ok. Good idea!

这俩个小年青还在风卷残云地吃三明治。今天他们在讲话顶用了lucky break和mellow这两个常用语,这是美国人在日常糊口中经常用的,巨匠不妨也在白话中试着用用
