【視野拓展——地道情景街頭語】

Last time we talked about some short sentences including idea are widely used in our daily conversations. And today I will talk about some idioms which are used in a foreigner's daily speech . 在上一期中我們談到了含有idea的一些廣泛用于日常會話中的短句，今天了，我將給大家講解一些含有idea這個詞的習語，也就是老外的街頭語。Let's get started. (備注：以下的例句中有下劃線的短語會再錄音中附帶講解。)

1 I have no idea.

{情景}您或許是個博學人士，無數學者會虛心向您請教問題，但是一個人不可能知曉天下事兒，因此在您遇到您的粉絲們的提問而回答不出時，您可以坦白地說：“{例句} That 's a good question. You really beat me! I'm sorry that I have no idea about it. ”這是個好問題，您可真把我難倒了。非常抱歉我不知道這個問題的答案。{釋義}In this sentence, " I have no idea " means "I don't know."

2 Not have the faintest idea （not have the first idea)

{情景}您經常跟別人開玩笑地說您是個英語博士，當別人問到您問題時，您根本就不知道，{例句} 這時您可以這樣說：“ I just play a trick on you. In truth English is all Greek to me and I don't have the faintest idea how to work it out.” 我平時是跟你開玩笑的。其實，我對英語一竅不通，我根本就回答不上你的問題。{釋義} In this sentence, "not have the faintest idea" is used to emphasize that you don't know something at all. 在這句話中，用于強調根本就不知道某事。譯為：完全不知，一竅不通。{即學即用}除老板外，各人掙多少錢就連同一辦公室的同事也搞不大清楚。People at the same office don't have the first idea how much each person earns, except the boss. 你為什么也對這個問題一竅不通呢？ How come you didn't have the faintest idea about it either? 林小姐一點主意也沒有，壽生說一句，她就點一下頭。 ——《林家鋪子》 Miss Lin didn't have the faintest idea what to do. She agreed with everything Shousheng said.

3 Have the right idea

{情景} 在現在的市場經濟社會，您大可嘗試不同的方式掙錢養家糊口，覺得幫別人打工掙錢總是被剝削，或許您可以這樣想——自己當老板，自己給自己發錢，開個網吧，餐館之類的。當您財源滾滾時，{例句} 您的朋友肯定會稱贊到：“Hey! Guy ! You have the right idea that you have run a computer club yourself ! ”嘿，小子，你自己開個網吧可真走對路了！{釋義} In this sentence, we can see that " have the right idea " means" have found a very good or successful way of living or doing something". 此外，have the right idea 可以說為：get the right idea. {即學即用} 他想通了——打算55歲退休。He has certainly had ( got ) the right idea——retiring at 55.

4 That's an idea!

{情景} 今日陽光和煦，微風徐徐，一改昨日的悶熱，此時您或許會想給自己疲憊的心靈放個假，{例句} 建議大家開著車到鄉村喘口氣：“I suggest that we should spend our weekend in the countryside.”和您一樣勞累的同事一定贊同：“That's an idea! Hit the road right away! Enjoy ourselves! Blow off some steam! ”好主意！咱們趕快上路吧！享受生活！釋放壓力！{釋義} In this sentence, " That's an idea!" is used to reply in a positive way to a suggestion that somebody has made. 用于贊同某人的建議。譯為：“好主意！”。{即學即用} 嘿！好主意！我們還可以請一支樂隊。Hey! That's an idea! And we could get a band as well.

5 That's the idea.

{情景} 您的能力非凡，是公司老總的左右手，每次圓滑地為老總解圍，{例句} 老總定就會說這句話：“That's the idea.”干得好！ {釋義} In this sentence, "That's the idea." is used to encourage people and tell them they are doing something right. “That's the idea!”用于鼓勵人們并告訴他們做得對。{即學即用} 對啦！做得對！That's the idea! You are doing fine.

6 You have no idea...

{情景} 原來被別人看不起的您現在時權錢在手，不知招來多少人眼紅，您會體貼周到地安慰他們：“{例句} That's no big deal. You have no idea how hard I spent those hard times! I would rather that I had led a life like you.”這沒什么的。你無法想象我所走過的那些歲月是多么地艱辛。我倒是寧愿過您這樣的生活。{釋義} In this sentence, "You have no idea..." is used to show that something is hard for somebody else to imagine. 譯為：你無法想象......。

7 give somebody ideas ( put ideas into somebody's head )

{情景} 您總會有很多不切實際的想法，您的母親一定會對您說這句話：“{例句} Who have given you ideas? ”這是誰使得你想入非非的？{釋義} In this sentence, "give somebody ideas' means "give somebody hopes about something that may not possible or likely " or means" make somebody act in a unreasonable way". 譯為：空想，想入非非。{即學即用} 他是個不切實際的人，一點小小的成功就會使他想入非非。 He is not a practical person, a little success will put ideas into his head. 上大學使她產生了不切實際的奢望，認為她可解決每個人的問題。Going to university has put ideas into her head--she thinks now she's got the answers to everyone's problems. (The End)
