【小題大作】
And now let's come to the dialogue study. Please listen to the recording and catch the key phrases.
A : Whatever we do, we should do it above board.
B : You are right. We shouldn't do anything under the table.
A : Well, since you agree with me , we put the issue abover board instead of talking about it through other channels .
Now have you done? Let's come to the phrase's accumulation.
{短語積累}
1 above board 坦誠(chéng)不公的,正大光明的,公開的,不甩手腕的
2 agree with 同意某人的說法,意見等等
3 under the table 非法地,暗中進(jìn)行地,,秘密地,偷偷地
4 do something 做事情
5 put the issue abover board 坦誠(chéng)不公地談事情,打開天窗說亮話
6 instead of 而不是
7 through other channels 通過其實(shí)方式,通過其他渠道
{句不離法}
1 Whatever we do, we should do it above board.
翻譯: 無論我們做什么是,都要正大光明的做。
講解: 這是一個(gè)含有由whatever 引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語從句的復(fù)合句。Whatever 是個(gè)復(fù)合詞,可以拆分開來用于這個(gè)句子中,書面形式顯得更為正式。For example: What ever I say, he always disagrees. 不管我說什么,他總是不同意。Above board 是副詞短語,在這里做狀語。
2 You are right. We shouldn't do anything under the table.
翻譯:你說得對(duì)。我們不能偷偷摸摸的做事。
講解:under the table 是介詞短語,在這里作狀語。
3 Well, since you agree with me , we put the issue abover board instead of talking about it through other channels .
翻譯:那好,既然你同意的說法,我們就把事情放到桌面上來說,而不是通過其他方式去談?wù)撨@件事。
講解: 這是個(gè)由 含有since引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語從句的復(fù)合句。在這里強(qiáng)調(diào)一點(diǎn)就是 instead of 這個(gè)短語相當(dāng)于介詞用,因此后面如果跟動(dòng)詞,就要用動(dòng)名詞形式。 Through the other channels 是介詞短語,在句中做方式狀語。
