【句子】I heard kids are getting snatched in Mexico. 【Modern Family S03E10】 【发音】/aɪ/ /hɜː(r)d/ /kɪds/ /ɑː(r)/ /getɪŋ/ /snætʃt/ /ɪn/ / /ˈmek.sɪ.kəʊ/ 【发音技巧】heard kids不完全爆破；kids are连读；getting闪音；snatched in连读； 【翻译】我听说墨西哥有人贩子抢小孩。 【适用场合】 今天学一个挺有意思的表达“抢小孩”，其中snatch这个单词，是我们学习的重点。 今天关键句中这里是被动语态的用法。 那snatch平时怎么用呢？ 了解一下：to take hold of something suddenly and roughly 以非常迅速、突然又很粗暴的方式抢夺某个东西； 或者后面搭配人也可以的， 可以表示： to take sb./sth. away from a person or place, especially by force; to steal sth. 以暴力的方式夺取、偷走、抢走某个人/某个东西； eg: He snatched the photos out of my hand before I had a chance to look at them. 我还没来得及看一眼，手里的照片就被他抢走了。 eg: She had her purse snatched (= stolen) while she was in town. 她在镇上的时候，钱包被抢了。 eg: She managed to snatch the gun from his hand. 她成功地从他手里夺下了那把枪。 eg: The raiders snatched $100 from the cash register. 那些抢劫犯从收银机那里抢走了100美元。 eg: The baby was snatched from its parents' car. 那个小婴儿从父母亲的车里被抢走了。 eg: If your bag is snatched, let it go. 如果你的包被抢了，算了随他去吧。 eg: Her brother snatched the letter and tore it open. 她的哥哥/弟弟把那封信抢过来，撕开了。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 Mike从我的手里抢走了那张卡。

【句子】Obviously, I'm just mortified over slapping you. 【Desperate Housewives S02E02】 【发音】/ˈɒb.vi.ə.sli/ /ˈɑːb.vi.ə.sli/ /aɪm/ /dʒʌst/ /ˈmɔː(r).tɪ.faɪd/ /ˈəʊ.və(r)/ /ˈslæpɪŋ/ /juː/ 【发音技巧】Obviously不完全爆破；just mortified不完全爆破； 【翻译】显然，扇你耳光的事情，我感觉很羞愧。 【适用场合】 第一个我们先学一下slap的用法，英文当中slap作动词，后面可以跟宾语，当及物动词使用，可以表示“扇”这个动作。 比如说： eg: She slapped his face. 或者She slapped him across the face. 她扇了他一耳光。 eg: She slapped him in his face because he had a sneer on his face. 因为他脸上挂着讥讽冷笑的表情，所以她扇了他一耳光。 你也可以这么用 把slap当做名词，有一个短语叫做： a slap in the face 它的意思，其实就是目前网络语言经常说的“啪啪打脸”这个含义。 A slap in the face is an action or remark which insults and upsets you. eg: It was a real slap in the face when she got promoted over me, especially after the amount of work I did on that last project. 上个项目我做的工作比她多，我没升职她反而升职了，真是打脸。 第二个我们说说mortified这个形容词的用法。 If you say that someone is mortified, you mean that they feel extremely offended, ashamed, or embarrassed. 这个形容词可以表示：“倍感尴尬的、非常羞愧的”等等这样的意思。 eg: If I reduced somebody to tears I'd be mortified. 如果我把别人给弄哭了，我会感觉到很尴尬。 eg: She was mortified to realize he had heard every word she said. 她很尴尬地发现，他听到了她说的每一句话。 eg: She was absolutely mortified to hear her son swearing at the teacher. 当听到她儿子骂老师，她肯定特别尴尬。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 Ron stopped craning his neck to catch a glimpse of Neville's parents and looked mortified. （来自Harry Potter）

【句子】I'm gonna start you on nitrazepam. That should do the trick. 【Desperate Housewives S02E02】 【发音】/aɪm/ /ˈgə.nə/ /ˈgɑː.nə/ /stɑː(r)t/ /juː/ /ɒn/ /ɑːn/ /naɪˈtræzɪpæm/ /ðæt/ /ʃʊd/ /duː/ /ðə/ /trɪk/ 【发音技巧】start you音的同化；That should do不完全爆破+失去爆破； 【翻译】我先给你开些安定吧。这样应该会管用。 【适用场合】 今天要讲解的第一个短语：start sb. on是什么意思呢？ to instruct, cause, or compel someone to begin a treatment of some kind for an illness, injury, or ailment 指导、让、强迫某个人开始一种针对某种疾病、受伤的治疗； eg: The doctor started me on antibiotics. 那位医生给我开了一些抗生素。 eg: They're starting me on physical therapy next week to help my leg rebuild some of its muscle mass. 他们让我下周开始物理治疗，帮助我的腿重建肌肉群。 eg: I'm going to start you on a round of antibiotics. If you don't start feeling better in a few days, give me a call. 我给你开一轮抗生素，如果你几天之后没有好转，给我打电话。 今天我们要来学习的第二个短语是： do the trick，这个短语的意思比较好猜，就是 “有用、起到作用；奏效；获得成功”； to do, accomplish, or fulfil exactly what is needed or sought after eg: The recipe calls for pancetta, but I think this regular bacon should do the trick. 这个菜单要求用意大利咸肉，但是我觉得这种普通培根应该也能行。 eg: The movie's plot, such as it is, won't go on to win any awards, but the gory special effects will do the trick for any fans of the horror genre. 这电影的情节，也就这么回事儿吧，获奖是没戏了，但是其中的血淋淋的特效，对于恐怖电影迷来说，倒是会挺合胃口。 最后这个句子，我们口语角群里一位Grace同学是这样翻译的： 这个电影情节一般，无望斩获任何奖项，但凭其血腥特效则将收割大波恐怖影片粉丝的好评。 这个翻译版本也是很棒，末尾的“粉丝”还可以改成 “拥趸”。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 I turned it off and back on, and that did the trick.

I'm still a little confused. 你能再看一下这些说明/指南吗？我还是有点困惑。 eg: We need to go over every inch of this house to find my engagement ring! 我们得仔细检查这间房子的每一个角落，来找到我的订婚戒指。 eg: The doctor will go over you very carefully, I'm sure. 那位医生肯定会仔细给你做个检查的。 eg: I went over the papers and found nothing wrong. 我仔细检查了一下文件，没有发现什么问题。 当然这里papers也可以理解成试卷啊或者论文什么的。 eg: I won't know how successful it is until an accountant has gone over the books. 要等到会计核查完账簿，我才会知道盈利状况如何。 当然了，这个短语也可以表达“复习、练习”这样的意思，我上课也经常用， 比如说： eg: We'll go over last week's lesson before we start a new one. 我们在开始新的一节课之前，先复习一遍上周的课/先过一遍上周的课。 【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】 They went over the contract with great care.
