習(xí)語解說：

be taken aback：大吃一驚

講解：aback是副詞，指“突然地”“淬不及防地”。Take sb aback意思是“把某個(gè)人弄得措手不及”，常用于被動語態(tài)中，則是be taken aback。

支持范例：

Eg.I was quite taken aback by the news.

這消息使我嚇了一跳。

Eg.He was taken aback by the turn of events.

事件的發(fā)展令他措手不及。

Eg.He was taken aback, but he managed to remain calm.

他心里一驚, 但表面上卻仍神色自若。

Eg.F. J. was taken aback as I described my confrontation with Hollis.

瓊斯聽了我同霍利斯當(dāng)面交鋒的情況，吃了一驚。

詞海拾貝：

none of one's business：與某人無關(guān)

Eg.It's none of my business, but I think you ought to work harder.

這事與我毫無關(guān)系，但我覺得你應(yīng)更努力去工作。

Eg.I am quite clear about it. It's none of your business.

對此我很清楚，不必你來操心。

Eg.I am responsible for the matter. None of other's business.

這件事由我負(fù)責(zé), 跟旁人不相干。

Eg.It' s none of your business, so please don' t butt in.
