周末又要到了,你是選擇宅在家里,還是邀上三五好友外出游玩呢?很多朋友可能會選擇宅在家里看電視,那么你可千萬要小心,別變成個"couch potato"了.
American children aren't the only couch potatoes with nearly one third of children globally spending three hours a day or more watching TV or on computers, according to study of over 70,000 teens in 34 nations.
一項面向34個國家7萬多名青少年開展的調查顯示,愛泡在電視機前的并非只有美國兒童,全球近三分之一的兒童每天看電視或玩電腦的時間達到三小時甚至更多。
這里的"couch potato"指的就是老是泡在電視機前的人.
A couch potato is someone who spends most of their time watching television and does not exercise or have any interesting hobbies.
例句:
My father becomes a couch potato during football season. 在足球賽季我的父親成天坐在沙發上看電視.
He is such a couch potato on weekends. 他一到周末就成天看電視看個不停.
