美國習慣用語(連載)[8]
he normal speed limit when a truck appeared in front of him out of the blue and he did not have time to stop."
he normal speed limit when a truck appeared in front of him out of the blue and he did not have time to stop."
這句話的意思是:“一個開車的人可能會在作證時說,正當他以正常的速度行駛的時候,一輛卡車突然出現在他面前,他來不及剎車。”
我們再聽聽下面這個學生講的話:
例句-4: "The announcement that the president of our university was quitting to go to another school hit us like a bolt out of the blue. He's always said he liked it here so much he would stay until he retired."
他說:“我們大學校長宣布他決定辭職到另外一個學校去工作。我們都感到很突然,因為他老是說他很喜歡這個學校,要一直在這兒工作到退休。”
今天我們講了兩個俗語。一個是 singing the blues;另一個是 like a bolt out of the blue。
