口语操练

1. 【语义表述】某人轻易认输，认为自己失败。

【句型模板】Sb. raises the white flag quiet yet.

【指点迷津】认输失败在这个句型中采用一个很巧妙的说法“raise the white flag”。如果表示胜利就会红色旗帜，表示失败就会亮出白色旗帜。Quiet yet的意思是“别那么早”的意思。

【句型操练】You could have won, but you lack of confidence. So you raised the white flag quiet yet.

你本来可以获胜的，但是你缺乏信心，轻易服输。

【句型出处】Don't raise the white flag quite yet.

2.【语义表述】委婉地一种方式来表达自己的观点，看法。

【句型模板】If I may say so...

【句型操练】If I may say so, you should go out to do some exercises.

容我说一句，你应该出去锻炼一下。

【句型出处】And if I may say so, My Lady, you're still very young.
