Wooden barriers were placed at various points on a ship, so that when an enemy boarded, the crew could retreat behind them and fire at the enemy through loopholes. The crew then were said to be fighting in close quarters, that is, in close contact with the enemy. The term later was transferred to any close contact or crowded situation. eg: You can watch aircraft take off or land at close quarters. 你可以近距离地看飞机起飞、降落。 eg: Over 200 people lived in close quarters on the ship. 在这艘船上,超过200个人拥挤地生活在一起。 eg: The contestants would live together in close quarters for nearly 60 days. 这些参赛选手将会近距离生活在一起差不多两个月的时间。 eg: I'm glad to be done with my student days. Living in such close quarters with so many people just to afford rent is something I don't want to do again. 我真的很开心我的学生生涯结束了。为了能省点租金,跟这么多人挤在一起住,这事儿我再也不想干了。 eg: When you see famous people at close quarters, they always appear much smaller than you imagined them. 近距离看名人时,他们看起来往往比你想象的要平凡得多。 eg: There were so many interns working in close quarters. Everyone had to share desks. 有很多实习生凑在一起工作,每个人都不得不分享桌子。 【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】 We'll be in very close quarters at the music festival but it's only for three days.

If the reception is poor, the sound or picture is unclear because the signal is weak. 今天视频中的这句话,我们也可以说成:This stupid phone gets no signal. 是一样的意思; 下面我们看几个例子: eg: We live on the top of a hill and so we get excellent radio reception. 我们住在山顶上,所以收音机接收信号的效果很好。 eg: Adjust the aerial's position and direction for the best reception. 调整天线的位置和方向以获得最佳接收效果。 eg: Cellphone users were complaining of poor reception. 手机用户抱怨信号差。 eg: The phone reception is really bad out here in the woods. 这儿的树林里电话信号特别差。 【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】 A new digital antenna might improve your reception.
