第一，迷你對話

A: You look unhappy. What's the matter with you?

你看起來不高興，怎么了？

B: Bod told me word for word what Tom said about me at the party.

Bob一字不差地把Tom在晚會上說我的事情告訴了我。

A: Cheer up, you needn't care about that. Everybody know that he is a walkie-talkie.

高興點，你不必在意它。個個都知道他是個隨意亂說話的人。

第二，地道表達

word for word

1. 解詞釋義

Word for word的字面意思是“一個字對一個字”，用來形容“某人照搬原話，一個字也不該”。

2. 拓展范例

E.g. Don' t translate word for word, sentence for sentence.

不要逐字逐句地翻譯。

E.g. Tell me what she said, word for word.

把她說的一五一十地告訴我。

E.g. The child's essay was copied word for word out of an encyclopedia.

那孩子的文章是從百科全書一字不變地照抄來的。

E.g. Don't read the article word for word, skim through it to pay attention to key words.

不要逐詞讀這篇文章，大致瀏覽一下注意關鍵詞。

E.g. I repeat this conversation exactly as it occurred. I have no doubt that it is, word for word, the same.

我是按實際情況復述這次談話的，字字句句都如實記錄，這我毫不懷疑。

E.g. Almost word for word, Joe repeated a story which he had committed to heart in the watches of the night.

在夜深人靜的時候，Joe把他所記熟的故事幾乎是一字不錯地重述了一遍。

第三，視野拓展

care about：擔心，在乎

E.g. Do not care about the consequences.

不要計較后果。

E.g. The first attempt may fail,but we don't care about that.

第一次嘗試可能會失敗，但是我們并不為此擔憂。

say about：說......

E.g. Did your teacher have much to say about your being late for class again?

你今天上課又遲到了，你老師又是好一通責備吧？

E.g. If you have anything to say about the problem,you can take the floor.

如果你對這個問題有什么要說，你可以發言。

E.g. He doesn't give two pins for what the critics say about his work.

他毫不在乎別人對他作品的批評。

第四，短語翻譯

中文：他是亂說話的人。

譯文：He is a walkie-talkie.

解析：walkie-talkie是“無線步話機”，用來比喻“多嘴多舌的人”。

例句：I did not tell her about it, she is a walkie-talkie.

我沒把這件事告訴他,她是個多嘴多舌的人。
