口语操练

1. 【语意表述】某人对某人说话尖酸刻薄,出言不逊。

【句型模板Somebody is sharp with someone.

【指点迷津】sharp的意思是“蓄意批评﹑ 中伤等的; 尖刻的; 严厉的”。例如: a sharp criticism, rebuke, remark(尖锐的批评﹑ 严厉的指责﹑ 刻薄的言语)等。表示对某人说话尖酸刻薄,用be sharp with这个短语。

【句型操练】 She was very sharp with me when I forgot my book.

我忘带书了, 她把我训斥了一顿。

【拓展句型】Somebody has a sharp tongue.

【句型出处】I'm sorry Mary was rather sharp this evening(今晚对你很无礼,真是抱歉。)

2. 【语意表述】某人的家业和财产将由有某人继承。

句型模板】Somebody’s home and fortune are to be passed to somebody.

【指点迷津】此句型用到be+动词不定式这个结构来表示“将来发生的事情”。用到pass something to somebody来表示“将某物传给某人”。
【句型操练】John’s home and fortune are to be passed to his eldest son.

约翰的家业和财产将由最大的儿子继承。

句型出处】Her father's home and her mother's fortune are to be passed to me.(眼看着自己父亲的家业和母亲的财产不保......)
