各位親愛的朋友們,歡迎來到早間課堂第二些列《拋招接招》小節(jié)目,我是Juliet。今天我繼續(xù)拋出說“冷遇”的招,請聽:
例句-1:That painting leaves me cold.
例句-2:The idea of going to the party left him cold.
接招:我們可以聽到在上面的2個例句中都用到了同一個詞語:leave cold。短語中的cold意思是without emotion or without enthusiasm(冷淡的,沒有激情的)。Leave 有遺留,留下的意思。那么,leave sb cold意思就是不能打動某人,不能激發(fā)起某人的興趣。If something leaves you cold, it does not cause you to feel any emotion.
Let's see more examples:
1. Tom's new book is quite well written, but the characters leave me cold.
湯姆的新書寫的相當(dāng)不錯,就是人物打不動我的心弦。
2. Mary said the book had her in tears, but it left me cold.
Mary說這本書讓她感動得淚流滿面,可是我卻無動于衷。
3. The music's good, but the story left the producer cold.
這首歌很好聽,但是歌中講訴的故事卻不能打動制片人的心。
4. Most of the programs on TV leave me cold.
我對大多數(shù)電視節(jié)目不感興趣。
5. Mathematics leaves me cold!
我不喜歡數(shù)學(xué)!
我們再來看一個跟leave 和cold有關(guān)的詞語,我們還是先來聽2個例子:
例句-1:I am surprised to see such a play out in the cold: I think he should definitely be allowed to play for the team.
例句-2:Some workers were left out in the cold in the recent wage agreement with their employees.
接招:在剛才聽到的2個例句中都用到了同一個詞語:out in the cold。它的意思是excluded from a group or an activity;ignored; not allow someone to become part of a group or an activity。中文意思即:被排斥在某集體或某項活動之外的; 不被理睬的。這是一條副詞性習(xí)慣用語,它可以和leave連用,即:leave sb/sth out in the cold。
Let's see more examples:
1. Whenever they have a dance, an outing, or a social gathering, they invite my friends, but they leave me out in the cold.
每當(dāng)他們舉行舞會、郊游活動或社會集會時,他們總是邀請我的朋友們,可是卻不理會我。
2. Every time I see you, you leave me out in the cold.
每次見到你,你都不理睬我。
3. I will never leave you out in the cold and never hurt you whatever I am busy or sad .
即使我悲傷,即使我忙碌,也永遠不會冷落你!
好,親愛的朋友們,我們今天的這2招說“冷遇”,一招是leave cold,一招是leave sb out in the cold。這2招都含有l(wèi)eave和cold這個2個詞,但是意思是截然不同的。我想這2招您一定是接住了,那么還剩最后一招說“冷遇”,這一招您或許有幾分熟悉,但是又有幾分陌生,它是什么呢?那么就請明天來接招。好,親愛的朋友們,我們下次再見??煽稍玳g課堂QQ交流群,群號為:118466246,歡迎您的加入。
