Last time our key points are "come clean" and "make a clean breast".
1 他拱认自己是偷窃珠宝的帮凶。
He made a clean breast of helping to steal the jewels.
2 警察捕获肇事逃跑的司机,该司机对其罪行供认不讳。
The police caught the hit-and-run driver and he made a clean breast of his crime.
3 他向警方如实招供.
He made a clean breast of his crime to the police.
4 我说实话--窗户是我打破的.
I've got to come clean I was the one who broke the window.
5 显而易见,那是你干的,因此你不妨全盘招供了。
It's obvious you did it so you might as well come clean.
By the way I need to emphasize if we want to say "向某人坦白某事", they are : come clean with somebody about something, make a clean breast of something to somebody. Please pay attention to the prepositions.
【主题—吃透美语】
Today we’er about to speak like a book. Please listen to the dialogue again and write down the phrases thinking they are useful for you. Listen carefully, here we go.
A : You have got to come clean with me. You are seeing other women.B : Yeah. I have been on a few dates recently.
【短语积累】

5 come clean with somebody about something 跟某人说某事的实情

【影视中实际发音】
1 You have got to come clean with me.
[ju:'hævgɔdə,kʌm'kli:nwiðmi:]
2 You are seeing other women.
[ju:ə'si:iŋ'ʌðə'wimin]
3 I have been on a few dates recently.
[aihəvbi:nɔnə'fju:'deits'risntli]
【发音精彩点拨】
1 got to
Got 是以爆破辅音[t]结尾,to也是以爆破辅音[t]结尾,两个音标雷同了,那么got中的[t]就不发音了。To 在美语中的发音为[də],因此连读为[gɔdə].
2 on a date
On 是以辅音[n]结尾,a 的发音为元音[ə],辅音遇到元音了,这是连读为[nə]. Date是以爆破音[t]结尾,但是在美语中爆破音发得非常弱,甚至吞掉这个音不发出来。
【咬文嚼字】
1 You have got to come clean with me.
你跟我说实话吧。
In this sentence "have got to " is often used by American. It means "must". Come is a linking verb. With me is a preposition phrase use as adverbial.
2 You are seeing other women.
你在和别的女人约会。
In this sentence I want to emphasize "see". It means "spend time with somebody". 译为:与(某人在一起),交往。有时候夫妻间知道对方没有与别人有染,但是也会开玩笑地问:Are you seeing anyone? 你跟别人好上了吗?这种幽默的话语反而更增加夫妻间的感情。They have been seeing a lot of each other. 他们最近老泡在一起。"See a lot of each other" means "spend a lot of time together".
3 I have been on a few dates recently.
我最近是越过几次会。
In this sentence the predicative is "have been "and "on a few days" is complement. Recently is adverbial. Here I want to emphasize "on a date" refers to a state. If we want to refer an action, we can put "go" before "on". go out on a date也就是我们中文说的“赴约”,这个强调的是动作,on a date 强调的是状态或是一件事情。
