【句子】Oh, no, he just needs to blow off some steam. 【Modern Family-S2E7】 【发音】[əʊ] [nəʊ] [hi:] [dʒʌst] [ni:dz] [tʊ] [bləʊ] [ɒf]/[ɑ:f] [sʌm] [sti:m] 【发音技巧】just needs不完全失去爆破；blow off连读可加一个半元音[w]； 【翻译】哦，不用，他只是需要发泄一下情绪。 【适用场合】 首先先说一个之前讲过的知识点。 Not when you’re on the business end of it. 有关business end是怎么理解的，之前节目当中已经作过讲解。 指的是一个东西里面发挥作用的那一部分： The functional part of an instrument, tool, or other object. 当时举过这样的例子： eg: These kids are reckless on the ice, so watch that you don't get hit with the business end of a hockey stick. 这些小孩滑冰太冒失了，注意别被冰球球棍伤到。 忘记的话建议去翻翻以前的节目，第462期节目中有讲过。 > > 点我复习 < < 今天重点要来学习的动词短语是： let off/blow off steam steam是蒸汽的意思。 放出多余的蒸汽；释放压抑的情绪；发脾气； to express your feelings of anger or excitement without harming anyone 这个短语为什么会有这样的意思呢，可以联想一下，蒸汽机的运作原理。 eg: I went on a run to blow off steam after our fight. 我俩打了一架之后，我出去跑了一圈，释放一下自己的情绪。 eg: When work gets frustrating, I like to go bowling to blow off some steam. 当工作压力很大的时候，我喜欢去打打保龄球，让自己减减压。 eg: Her shouting did not mean she was angry at you. She was just blowing off steam. 她大声喊叫不意味着她是生你气了，她只是自己发泄一下情绪而已。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 After spending the day on very exacting work, Tom blew off steam by going for a long run.

【句子】Okay, let’s cut the crap. We’re not talking about some character on a soap opera here, are we? 【Modern Family-S2E7】 【发音】[ˌəʊˈkeɪ] [lets] [kʌt] [ðə] [kræp] [wɪə(r)] [nɒt]/[nɑ:t] ['tɔ:kɪŋ]/['tɑ:kɪŋ] [əˈbaʊt] [sʌm] ['kærəktə(r)] [ɒn]/[ɑ:n] [ə] [səʊp] [ˈɒp.ər.ə]/[ˈɑ:.pər.ə] [hɪə(r)] [ɑ:(r)] [wi:] 【发音技巧】cut the不完全失去爆破；not talking about完全失去爆破+连读；on a连读； 【翻译】咱们别扯这些有的没的了/咱们不如往直白里说，我们现在在聊的，并不是肥皂剧里面的某一个角色吧。 【适用场合】 Cut the crap! 一般都是祈使句使用， 说起来在口语当中，这是非常不礼貌的一种说法，很冒犯别人。 It is a rude way of telling someone to stop saying things that are not true or not important: 1. 别骗人了！别糊弄人了！ 2. 别胡闹！别浪费时间了！别说那些有的没的了。 eg: Just cut the crap! Will you tell me where I'm going wrong? 别说那些有的没的了，能告诉我我哪里做错了吗？ eg: Cut the crap—I know you're lying to me. 别骗人了，我知道你在蒙我。 eg: Look, can we cut the crap and call this what it is?

【句子】You can give me the cold shoulder the rest of your life. Jack’s not coming back. 【Modern Family-S2E7】 【发音】[ju:] [kæn] [gɪv] [mi:] [ðə] [kəʊld] ['ʃəʊldə(r)] [ðə] [rest] [əv] [jɔ:(r] [laɪf] [dʒæks] [nɒt]/[nɑ:t] ['kʌmɪŋ] [bæk] 【发音技巧】cold shoulder不完全失去爆破；rest of连读；not coming完全失去爆破； 【翻译】你可以余生都这么冷漠地对待我，但是Jack我是不可能让他回来了。 【适用场合】 give sb. the cold shoulder 寒冷的肩膀？ 引申义一般理解为：对某人不冷不热；很冷淡； 也可以说get the cold shoulder表示遭遇到冷漠的对待 那么为什么the cold shoulder可以理解成：intentionally cold or unsympathetic treatment？ 跟肩膀有什么关系吗？ This term supposedly alludes to the custom of welcoming a desired guest with a meal of roasted meat, but serving only a cold shoulder of beef or lamb-a far inferior dish-to those who outstayed their welcome. 据说，在西方国家习俗里，如果热情欢迎一位客人，会用烤制的肉类。 但是如果，这个客人在你家待太久了，有些不招人待见，主人会上什么食物呢？牛肩膀部位的冷的肉，或者是羊肩膀部位的冷的肉。（这样的食物就低等很多） eg: I got the cold shoulder from an old friend. 我在一位老朋友那里遭到冷遇。 就是他对我挺冷漠的。 eg: He was given the cold shoulder when he was looking for support. 当他想寻求支持的时候，却没人理会。 eg: She thinks you started that rumor—that's why she's been giving you the cold shoulder all day. 她认为，那个谣言是你开始散播的。所以她才会一整天没给你好脸色看。 eg: I thought that Sally and I were friends, but lately I've been getting the cold shoulder. 我之前认为我和Sally是朋友，但是最近，她一直对我都很冷淡。 cold-shoulder 可以当做动词用 理解为：忽视某个人；冷落某个人；对某个人冷淡； If one person cold-shoulders another, they give them the cold-shoulder. eg: The hostess cold-shouldered me, so I spilt my appetizers in the swimming pool. 这个女主人对我不冷不热的，于是我把开胃菜倒进了她家游泳池里。 eg: Tiffany cold-shouldered the guy who was trying to flirt with her. Tiffany压根没搭理那个想搭讪她的男人。 刚才视频中Jay的台词里出现了一个短语： goofing off 英语中goof off/around 指的是：to waste time; evade work or responsibility 游手好闲；不干正事儿； eg: You’d better not let the boss catch you goofing off! 你最好别让老板发现你不工作，游手好闲。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 当我在图书馆里跟她打招呼的时候，她没怎么搭理我，径直走开了。

【句子】Well, I also have the best attorney in town, so do your worst. 【Modern Family-S2E7】 【发音】[wel] [aɪ] ['ɔːlsəʊ]/[ˈɑːlsəʊ] [hæv] [ðə] [best] [əˈtɜ:(r).ni] [ɪn] [taʊn] [səʊ] [du:] [jɔ:(r)] [wɜ:(r)st] 【发音技巧】town易错词； 【翻译】我也请来了全镇最棒的律师，所以，你放马过来吧。 【适用场合】 今天首先先啰嗦一句，视频中出现的，Let’s roll, please! 大家准备开始了！各就各位！ 之前我们节目中已经讲过的 roll 表示 start doing sth. 开始做某事 忘记了的同学可以去597期节目复习。 > > 点我复习 < < do your worst （口语） 看到这个表达，有些同学第一反应是：do your best 尽你最大努力… eg: Just do your best. That's all we can ask of you. 你就尽全力就好了，我们也只能要求你这么多了。 这里其实换成worst 就完全是相反的意思了。 It is used for saying that you are not frightened by something or someone because you are confident they cannot harm you 你自信满满地说：我不怕你，放马过来吧。你内心并不担心对方能够伤你丝毫。 或者这个短语可以理解为： be as harmful, unpleasant, violent, etc. as you can eg: I refuse to pay this bill. Let them do their worst. 随他们怎么做，我拒绝支付这笔账单。 eg: Let them do their worst—he would never surrender. 让他们尽管试试好了，他是绝对不会投降的！ eg: The electricity company did their worst and cut off the supply. 电力公司做绝了，切断了电力供应。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 我才不怕他呢，让他放马过来好了！

【句子】She couldn’t have laid it on thicker. 【Modern Family-S2E7】 【发音】[ʃi:] [ˈkʊd.ənt] [hæv] [leɪd] [ɪt] [ɒn]/[ɑ:n] [θɪkə(r)] 【发音技巧】couldn’t have击穿爆破；laid it on两处连读； 【翻译】她这也太言过其实了吧？ 【适用场合】 lay it on thick 这是口语中才会用的表达，一般来说两层含义： 1. 夸大其词，言过其实； If someone is laying it on thick or is laying it on, they are exaggerating a statement, experience, or emotion in order to try to impress people. 这个短语可以联想一个场景，人用刷子把东西表面刷上厚厚一层油漆，或者石膏的时候（本没有必要刷这么厚的）…… eg: I may have spoken a bit too freely, even laid it on a little. 我可能话说得随意了点，甚至有点夸大其词了。 eg: Bob, I think Mary understands the trouble she's in. There’s no need to lay it on so thick. Bob，我觉得Mary应该知道她现在身处于什么样的麻烦里，没必要别再吓唬她了。 2. 溜须拍马，拼命奉承；给别人戴高帽； to make something such as your admiration for someone or their achievements seem greater or more important than it really is in order to impress someone eg: Don't lay it on too thick, but make sure they are flattered. 别狂拍马屁，但是要确保都把他们哄开心。 eg: Sally was laying it on thick when she said that Tom was the best singer she had ever heard. Sally给Tom戴高帽，说Tom是她所听过的最棒的歌手。 其实今天讲到的这些表达，我们还可以有一些类似说法，可以一起积累 比如说： lay it with a trowel ['traʊəl] pile it on (thick) pour it on (thick) pour it on eg: He was really pouring it on. I don't think he's as poor as he says. 他真的是夸大其词了，我觉得他没有他说的那么穷。 to make a situation seem worse than it is in order to get sympathy from other people 把一个情况说得更糟糕，为了博取同情 pile it on to express a feeling in a much stronger way than is necessary 用特别夸张的方式表达情绪 eg: My father really piled it on, shouting at me for ages about my exam results. 我爸真是小题大做了，就因为我的考试结果，已经吼了我无数次了。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 Tom说Jenny是他最喜欢的作者，她理应得到诺贝尔文学奖的。他也太会拍马屁了。

【句子】Oh, no big deal. Just had a couple of showings fall through. 【Modern Family-S2E7】 【发音】[əʊ] [nəʊ] [bɪg] [di:l] [dʒʌst] [hæd] [ə] ['kʌpl] [əv] ['ʃəʊɪŋz] [fɔ:l]/[fɑ:l] [θru:] 【发音技巧】big deal完全失去爆破；just had a不完全失去爆破+连读；couple of连读； 【翻译】哦，没啥大不了的，只是几个看房的计划泡汤了。 【适用场合】 fall 本身是掉落的意思， 那么fall through指什么呢？ 某件事情没有按照计划发生；失败了，计划泡汤了；没成； If an arrangement, plan, or deal falls through, it fails to happen. eg: We found a buyer for our house, but then the sale fell through. 我们给我们的房子找到了一个买家，但是后来这单生意没成。 eg: They wanted to turn the estate into a private golf course and offered 20 million dollars, but the deal fell through. 他们想把这块地变成一块私人高尔夫球场，出价2千万美金，但是后来这笔交易没做成。 /ɪˈsteɪt/ Can’t get back on that horse unless you fall off. 字面意思：除非你摔下来，否则你无法重新回到马背上。 其实这句俚语本来是这样的： get back on the horse (that bucked you) 字面意思是：重新爬回到之前把你摔下去的马背上 引申义：从哪摔倒，从哪爬起来 to return to or resume an activity that one has previously failed at, had difficulty with, or which has previously caused one harm. eg: I know you're discouraged after getting fired, but you need to get back on the horse that bucked you and start looking for a new job. 我知道你被炒鱿鱼了之后，挺沮丧的。但是你得从哪跌倒从哪爬起来，重新找新工作。 eg: I've been single for three years since my divorce, but now I think it's time to get back on the horse and start dating again. 自从离婚之后，我已经单身三年了。但是现在，我觉得，我应该从哪跌倒从哪爬起来，重新开始约会了。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 我们下个周的派对计划泡汤了。（注意介词的使用，表示提前的计划，安排）

【句子】-- I was not that loud. -- Cars pulled over, honey. 【Modern Family-S2E7】 【发音】[aɪ] [wɒz]/[wɑ:z] [nɒt]/[nɑ:t] [ðæt] [laʊd] [kɑ:(r)z] [pʊld] ['əʊvə(r)] ['hʌni] 【发音技巧】not that loud两处不完全失去爆破；pulled over连读； 【翻译】-- 我才没有那么大声！ -- 亲爱的，别的车都靠边停了/给你让路了。 【适用场合】 今天重点学一下这个pull over的短语使用 If a vehicle pulls over, it moves to the side of the road and stops 一般都用于描述车辆，pull over就是指停在路边 eg: I think you've got a flat tire. You'd better pull over. 我觉得你车胎漏气了，你最好靠边停下。 eg: Just pull over here, and I'll get out and walk the rest of the way. 把车靠边停就行，我要下车，剩下的路我自己走。 如果句子主语是警察the police If the police pull over a driver or vehicle, they make the driver stop at the side of the road, usually because the driver has been driving dangerously. 这个时候 the police pull over a driver/vehicle 指警察让某辆车靠边停下（通常由于这个司机之前开车有什么问题、危险驾驶） 如果在国外开车，警察让你pull over你没听懂，那你惨了。 正确的做法是什么呢： eg: If you get stopped by a police car, make sure you pull over as far to the right as you can. 如果你被警察拦下来了，你一定尽量靠右停在路边。 eg: The officers pulled him over after a high-speed chase. 在一通高速追捕之后，警官们把他逼停在路边。 今天视频片段当中呢，Jay就是想说明Gloria在车上大喊大叫，把其他开车的司机都吓坏了。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 那位警官让我把车停到路边，因为我有一个尾灯坏掉了。 尾灯怎么说：tail light或者rear light都可以
