第二、地道表達(dá)

carry a torch

1. 解詞釋義

Carry a torch的字面意思是“高舉火炬”，比喻為“單戀，喜歡”或“執(zhí)著某一事業(yè)或理想”的意思。如果表示單戀，喜歡某人或某物，執(zhí)著于某一具體的事業(yè)或理想，在短語后面用解詞for，后面再接名詞或動(dòng)名詞短語，即：carry a torch for something or doing something。

2. 拓展例句

e.g. John has carried a torch for Jane for years but she doesn't seem to notice.

約翰已經(jīng)對(duì)簡(jiǎn)單戀多年了，但是簡(jiǎn)看上去似乎沒注意到。

e.g. I have been carrying a torch for my ballet education career.

我一直都執(zhí)著于芭蕾舞教育事業(yè)。

Ps ：表示眾所周知…….，可以用這個(gè)句型：It is well known that+從句。例如：

It is well known that professional sports are popular in the United States.

眾所周知，職業(yè)體育運(yùn)動(dòng)在美國(guó)非常普及。

It is well known that the 2000 Sydney Olympics stadium is a multi-functioned gymnasium, too.

當(dāng)然，2000年的悉尼奧運(yùn)會(huì)場(chǎng)館也是眾所周知的多功能體育館了。
