我抛你接
各位亲爱的朋友们,欢迎来到早间课堂第二些列《抛招接招》小节目,我是Juliet。今天我继续抛出说冷遇的招,请听:
例句-1:That painting leaves me cold.
例句-2:The idea of going to the party left him cold.
接招:我们可以听到在上面的2个例句中都用到了同一个词语:leave cold。短语中的cold意思是without emotion or without enthusiasm(冷淡的,没有激情的)。Leave 有遗留,留下的意思。那么,leave sb cold意思就是不能打动某人,不能激发起某人的兴趣。If something leaves you cold, it does not cause you to feel any emotion.
Let's see more examples:
1. Tom's new book is quite well written, but the characters leave me cold.
汤姆的新书写的相当不错,就是人物打不动我的心弦。
2. Mary said the book had her in tears, but it left me cold.
Mary说这本书让她感动得泪流满面,可是我却无动于衷。
3. The music's good, but the story left the producer cold.
这首歌很好听,但是歌中讲诉的故事却不能打动制片人的心。
4. Most of the programs on TV leave me cold.
我对大多数电视节目不感兴趣。
5. Mathematics leaves me cold!
我不喜欢数学!
我们再来看一个跟leave 和cold有关的词语,我们还是先来听2个例子:
例句-1:I am surprised to see such a play out in the cold: I think he should definitely be allowed to play for the team.
例句-2:Some workers were left out in the cold in the recent wage agreement with their employees.
接招:在刚才听到的2个例句中都用到了同一个词语:out in the cold。它的意思是excluded from a group or an activity;ignored; not allow someone to become part of a group or an activity。中文意思即:被排斥在某集体或某项活动之外的; 不被理睬的。这是一条副词性习惯用语,它可以和leave连用,即:leave sb/sth out in the cold。
Let's see more examples:
1. Whenever they have a dance, an outing, or a social gathering, they invite my friends, but they leave me out in the cold.
每当他们举行舞会、郊游活动或社会集会时,他们总是邀请我的朋友们,可是却不理会我。
2. Every time I see you, you leave me out in the cold.
每次见到你,你都不理睬我。
3. I will never leave you out in the cold and never hurt you whatever I am busy or sad .
即使我悲伤,即使我忙碌,也永远不会冷落你!
好,亲爱的朋友们,我们今天的这2招说冷遇,一招是leave cold,一招是leave sb out in the cold。这2招都含有leave和cold这个2个词,但是意思是截然不同的。我想这2招您一定是接住了,那么还剩最后一招说冷遇,这一招您或许有几分熟悉,但是又有几分陌生,它是什么呢?那么就请明天来接招。好,亲爱的朋友们,我们下次再见。可可早间课堂QQ交流群,群号为:118466246,欢迎您的加入。
