这个视频是很久以前的,我又翻出来借着这个节日分享给大家。
总结一些词给大家,都很简单,但是我们恐怕不会想到去用。
1. 形容很多除了"a lot", 试试 extensive; broad
2. Exert...on这个词组你或许很熟悉,表示“to use your power, influence etc in order to make something happen.”
还有一个用法是"exert yourslf": to work very hard and use a lot of physical or mental energy. 大概就是“使出吃奶的劲儿”
3. 耐力的英文是stamina
4. “很过分” 除了用 "too much", 试试 intense.
口语中会场说"that's intense", 大概是说 “that's awesome", "碉堡了”--不同语境有不同的意思。
5. Be able to wear several hats: 能够身兼数职. 这个用法很形象,你体会一下。
“我做过好多不同的工作”,就可以说: I've worn many differernt hats"
6. Encompass 是 contain; include的意思。All-encompassing 就是 "include everything"。
7. “没人性” inhumane, 注意发音,重音在后面。
8. Let's cover the salary. 我们来“谈”一下薪水。
9. AKA / a.k.a. = Also Known As. 例如 My name is Eric a.k.a. "小吴彦祖”。
10. through thick and thin - through good times and bad times
To all the moms in the world: thank you for being therer when we laugh, cry, yell, roll our eyes and cower in fear.
