詳解雅思口語中的高頻句子
3. I ate salad, soup, steak and pudding. On top of that, I drank two cups of coffee. 我吃了沙拉,湯,牛排和布丁,除此之外,我還喝了兩杯咖啡。
講到除了什么什么之外,以前老師教我們的都是 besides,in addition to (包含的除外),不然就是 except (不包含的除外,詳見注1) 所以這個例句一般人的講法會是,"Besides/In addition to salad, soup steak and pudding, I drank two cups of coffee." 但除了 besides/in addition to 之外,老美也很喜歡用 on top of that 這個片語。而且當他們在講 on top of that 都還會特別強調(diào)加強語氣。通常能表現(xiàn)出一種夸大的語氣來吸引聽者的注意。比方說吧!「她的未婚夫不但有五棟房子和二部豪華轎車,銀行里還有十億元的存款」在這里重點是最后的十億元存款,所以句子這么造,"Her fiance has five houses and two luxury cars. On top of that, he has 1 billion dollars in the bank."
