【绝望的主妇】“入室盗窃”用英语怎么说?

英语老师瑶瑶

【句子】There was a break-in on this street. 【Desperate Housewives S2E8】 【发音】/ðeə(r)/ /wɒz/ /wɑːz/ /ə/ /ˈbreɪk.ɪn/ /ɒn/ /ɑːn/ /ðɪs/ /striːt/ 【发音技巧】was a连读;break-in连读; 【翻译】这条街上刚有人非法闯入。/这条街上刚刚发生了非法闯入的案件。 【适用场合】 今天我们来学习一下break-in这个复合名词的用法, 这个词由动词短语break in变化而来,英文解释是:an occasion when a building is entered illegally by a criminal or criminals, usually by damaging a window or door, especially in order to steal something; 所以可以理解成“破门而入、破窗而入;强行闯入”这样的意思,尤其指:入室盗窃的情况; eg: Police were called to three break-ins in the same area last night. 昨晚,警方有三次出警都是因为同一地区的入室盗窃案件。 eg: The break-in had occurred just before midnight. 这起入室盗窃案件刚好发生在午夜之前。 eg: I rang the police to report a break-in. 我打电话报警了,说有人入室盗窃。 大家可以顺便学学动词短语break in的用法,也可以表示“破门而入;强行闯入”,但是词性不同;这个短语在口语中也可以用于表达“插话;打断别人的谈话”这样的意思; eg: The thief had broken in through a first-floor window. 那个小偷打破了一楼的窗户,钻了进来。 eg: “She told you to stay here,” Mike broke in. 麦克突然插话,说道:“她让你待在这儿。” eg: As she was talking, he suddenly broke in, saying, "That's a lie". 她正在说话的时候,他突然插话,说道,“她在撒谎。” 【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】 Masked robbers broke in and made off with $8,000.

英语老师瑶瑶

【句子】But that was a different time. You have to be more vigilant. 【Desperate Housewives S2E8】 【发音】/bʌt/ /ðæt/ /wɒz/ /wɑːz/ /ə/ /ˈdɪf.ər.ənt/ /taɪm/ /juː/ /hæv/ /tʊ/ /biː/ /mɔː(r)/ /ˈvɪdʒ.ɪ.lənt/ 【发音技巧】that was类似不完全爆破的处理;was a连读;different time失去爆破; 【翻译】但现在时代不同了,你必须得提高警惕。 【适用场合】 今天我们来学习一下vigilant这个形容词的用法,very careful to notice any signs of danger or trouble,中文可以理解成“警戒的;警惕的”; 其实看到这个词的时候,第一眼就联想到了很久以前看过的一个美剧,叫绿箭侠,英文名叫Arrow,里面的男主角一直自称是vigilante(发音:/ˌvɪdʒ.ɪˈlæn.ti/),保护自己的城市。 这俩词一看就是同源。 eg: A pilot must remain vigilant at all times. 飞行员必须时时刻刻保持警惕。 eg: The thief was spotted by vigilant neighbours. 警惕的邻居们发现了那个小偷。 eg: He warned the public to be vigilant and report anything suspicious. 他警告公众要警惕一些,碰到可疑事件及时报告。 eg: Following the bomb scare at the airport, the staff have been warned to be extra vigilant. 在机场的那次炸弹恐吓事件之后,全体员工都被告诫要格外警惕。 【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】 All but one of these letter bombs had been intercepted by vigilant post office staff.

英语老师瑶瑶

【句子】-- Honey, they're fine. You just worry too much. -- And for good reason! 【Desperate Housewives S2E8】 【发音】/ˈhʌn.i/ /ðeə(r)/ /faɪn/ /ju:/ /dʒʌst/ /ˈwʌr.i/ /ˈwɜ:(r).ri/ /tuː/ /mʌtʃ/ /ənd/ /fə(r)/ /gʊd/ /ˈriː.zən/ 【发音技巧】just worry类似不完全爆破的处理;And for不完全爆破;good reason不完全爆破; 【翻译】——亲爱的,他们没事。你担心过度了。 ——我担心是有理由的! 【适用场合】 今天节目中我们一起来看看for good reason的用法。 先来看看对应的英文解释: because something has already been proven to be true or justified 所以这个短语可以理解成:“有充分理由地;有正当理由地”; eg: Yes, I'm suspicious, but for good reason—I've already caught her twice. 是的,我确实是怀疑。但是我怀疑是有正当理由的——我已经抓到过她两次了。 eg: People are eager for answers about the sinkhole, and for good reason—they want to know if their homes are in danger. 人们都很急切地想知道关于那个排水口的事,但他们的焦急是有理由的——他们想知道自己的家是否处在危险的境地。 eg: The actress has won many awards this year, and for good reason—her performance was utterly captivating. 这个女演员今年赢得了很多奖项,这也确实是实至名归,她的表演特别吸引人。 eg: He was kicked out of the military, and for good reason.

【绝望的主妇】英文中,slippery还可以用于描述人?

英语老师瑶瑶

【句子】Honey, you know how slippery they are. 【Desperate Housewives S2E8】 【发音】/ˈhʌn.i/ /ju:/ /nəʊ/ /haʊ/ /ˈslɪp.ər.i/ /ðeɪ/ /ɑː(r)/ 【发音技巧】暂无; 【翻译】亲爱的,你知道他们有多狡猾。 【适用场合】 今天节目中我们一起来看看slippery这个单词的用法。大家日常生活中可能会在一些提醒大家“小心地滑”的牌子上看到slippery这个词,因为它有形容词“光滑的;滑溜溜的;易滑落的”这样的词义; 比如说: eg: a slippery sidewalk 一条打滑的人行道 而今天视频中,slippery的用法,明显是形容词性另外一个意思:“靠不住的;狡猾的;滑头的;” 这个词经常用来描述人,而且充满了贬义色彩。 someone who is slippery is clever but dishonest, so that you cannot trust them; 在口语中,当slippery当作这个意思理解,一般经常还会跟eel鳗鱼或者snake蛇这样的动物形象联系在一起,我们会说as slippery as an eel,或者as slippery as a snake字面意思是:“像一条鳗鱼一样狡猾”;“像一条蛇一样狡猾”; 在中文当中,我们通常会说“像狐狸一样狡猾”,这个时候就能体会出来中英文文化当中的表达差异了。 eg: He's as slippery as an eel—you can never get a straight answer out of him. 他啊,狡猾得跟狐狸一样,你从他嘴里套不出来一句直率的答案。 大家从这句话中就能看出来同样表达“狡猾的;滑头的;不可信赖的”这样的意思,但是中英文中选择的意象明显不同。 eg: Their embezzling CEO has been slippery as a snake, but we've finally got some hard evidence on him now. 他们那个挪用公款的首席执行官狡猾得很,但是我们终于拿到了一些他犯罪的铁证。 eg: Of course that guy took everyone's money and left town—he's as slippery as a snake. 当然,那家伙拿走了所有人的钱,离开了小镇。他特别狡猾。 eg: Don't sign a lease with that landlord. I think he's as slippery as an eel. 别跟那个房东签租约,他太狡猾了。 而当别人说slippery customer的时候,其实此时的customer也不一定就是“顾客”的意思; slippery customer 就是指“一个狡猾、滑头的人或者事物、组织”; eg: Don't believe what he says—he's a slippery customer. 别相信他说的话,他这个人啊,狡猾得很! 【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】 Companies like this are slippery customers, coming up with all sorts of elaborate means of getting around regulations.

(one's) apologies,“向某个人表达自己的歉意”; 当然有的时候也有用apology,单数名词的时候。 eg: She complained to the company about its awful service and they sent her a written apology. 她向那家公司投诉了他们糟糕的服务,那家公司给她寄来了一份书面的道歉信。 eg: He has sent his apologies - he's abroad at present. 他表达了他的歉意,他现在人在国外呢。 今天我们学习第二个表达是: rush out, 可以理解成:to exit, escape, or depart (from something or some place) very quickly or all at once “(从某个地方)冲出、逃离、快速离开”; eg: People came rushing out of the burning building. 人们从燃烧的大楼里冲了出来。 eg: I opened the lid of the saucepan and plume of steam rushed out. 我打开炖锅的盖子,一股蒸汽冒了出来。 eg: Everyone rushed out of the room at the same time. 每个人都同时从那间房间里冲了出来。 eg: They rushed out because they smelled smoke. 他们闻到了烟的味道,冲了出来。 【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】 教室一着火,他们立刻冲了出去。

【绝望的主妇】“咱们能改日再约吗?”

英语老师瑶瑶

【句子】Can I take a rain check? 【Desperate Housewives S2E8】 【发音】/kən/ /aɪ/ /teɪk/ /ə/ /reɪn/ /tʃek/ 【发音技巧】Can I连读;take a连读; 【翻译】咱们为何不改天呢? 【适用场合】 今天我们来学习一下,take a rain check的用法。 首先先搞清楚什么叫做rain check,这个看英文解释就懂了, 比如说,这一条: a ticket that allows you to see an event at a later time if bad weather stops that event from happening 本来要去看演出,但是由于坏天气,演出取消了,你可以拿着这个rain check,下次演出恢复的时候,就可以直接来看。 所以在英文中,rain check其实就有“改日再约”这样一种含义; eg: She declined the invitation to dinner, but asked for a rain check. 她婉言谢绝了吃晚餐的邀请,但是请求改日再一起共进晚餐。 而今天视频中,take a rain check也是非常常见的搭配,就表示“改日再约、换个时间再做”; If you say you will take a rain check on an offer or suggestion, you mean that you do not want to accept it now, but you might accept it at another time. eg: I was planning to ask you in for a brandy, but if you want to take a rain check, that's fine. 我原本计划着,请你进来喝杯白兰地,但是如果你想下次再说,也行。 eg: Can I take a rain check on that? 这事儿咱们能下次再约吗? eg: -- Are you coming for a drink? -- Can I take a rain check? I must get this finished tonight. —— 你来喝一杯吗? —— 能下次再说吗?我必须今晚把这活儿弄完。 eg: I'm sorry, but I'll take a rain check for dinner this Saturday. Would next weekend work for you? 抱歉,但是这周六的晚餐我得换个时间了,下个周末你会有空吗? eg: I'm sorry. I'm just too exhausted to go out tonight. Could I take a rain check? 抱歉,今晚真的是太累了,不想出去了。咱们能改日吗? 【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】 -- Would you like to try that new restaurant tonight? -- I'm afraid I'm busy tonight, but can I take a rain check?
