瘋狂英語口語要素精選及引申17
1. I hope I didn't offend you.
希望沒有冒犯你。
還有一個(gè)短語no offense: 無意冒犯。不知道大家有沒有這樣一種感覺,越是別人說這句,你就覺得是一種冒犯,雖然對(duì)方說了不是故意而為之,但還是有種很不舒服的感覺,呵呵~~正如一部電影里所說:Why do people always say "no offense" when they do offend you? 為什么人們冒犯你的時(shí)候總是說“無意冒犯”?
2. It won't take much time.
不會(huì)花很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的。
take的短語很多的哦~~這里列舉幾個(gè)考試常考的:
take up: 拿起,開始,從事。
例:She took up the narrative where John had left off. 她接著講約翰未講完的故事。
take on: 承擔(dān),呈現(xiàn),接受。
例:He is unwilling to take on heavy responsibilities. 他不愿承擔(dān)重任。
take in: 吸收,理解,欺騙。
例:I was taken in by the salesman-the car turned out to be uneconomical and unreliable. 推銷員騙了我——那輛車結(jié)果既不經(jīng)濟(jì)又不牢靠。
take off: 起飛,取消,脫下。
例:The show had to be taken off because of poor audiences. 因觀眾太少而取消演出。
3. It's been a long time.
好久不見了。
更普遍的說法是Long time no see. 不過一開始這個(gè)說法是不正確的,后來才被大家逐漸接受的。
4. It's nothing.
小事情/不足掛齒。
“小菜一碟”大家都會(huì)吧?!a piece of cake.
5. It's incredible.
難以置信。
像incredible這樣的形容詞或者如absolutely這樣的副詞非常好用,短小精悍,特別給力,呵呵~~類似的還有undoubtedly,unbelievable等等。
6. It's hard to say.
難說。
