英语口语、习惯语、经典语录5000句(165)

 

1641. She is a hairstylist. 她是位发型师。叫一个人理发师太土了,现在都叫发型师。hairstylist,其实就是barber, 区别是,barber收费5元,hairstylist收费6000元。barber 又叫hairdresser,发型设计师。现在理发店也改名了,叫Beauty Salon。

 

1642. Many hands make light work.众人拾材火焰高。又可以说Two heads are better than one. 这句话还可以说成:Two hands are better than one. 但也有反其道的说辞:Too many cooks spoil the broth. 厨师多了会坏汤。

 

1643. Everyone else does it. 大家都这么做呀!(给自己找借口下台的说辞)或者说:But all the other people are doing it.或者说: Well, everyone does it that way.这话又可以说成:If everyone else does it, it must be OK. 如果人人都这么干的话,那肯定是没有问题啦。

 

1644. pull an all-nighter熬夜: I pulled an all-nighter to study and ended up in the wrong class twice. (昨晚)我熬夜学习,结果两次跑进了其他班。Sorry I'm so out of it, had to pull an all-nighter last night! 对不起,我有点迷迷糊糊,昨晚一夜赶工没有睡。

 

1645. I can’t get through what I went through without your help. 没有你的帮助,我根本不可能走过这段低谷。(我根本走不到现在。)

 

1646. The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing. (我们)主要的事就是保持主要的事一直是主要的事。类似的话有:First things first. 最重要的事得优先去做。

 

1647. Get over it. Get through it. 这两句话差不多。意思都是:不要再计较了。算了吧。

 

1648. 这件衫没有那件衫贵。This shirt is less expensive than that one.这件衫没那件好。注意不能说成:This shirt is less good than that one. 最好也不要说成This shirt is worse than that one. 因为我们最好避免使用bad, worse, worst这几个词。正确的说法是:This shirt is not as good as that one. 但是英语有less than good的表达法,委婉语,表示不好,不理想:Good news and less than good news. 好消息与坏消息。

 

1649. These overnight millionaires spend like there is no tomorrow. 这些暴发户挥霍无度。

 

1650. "I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty."主神说,我是阿拉法,我是俄梅戛(阿拉法俄梅戛乃希腊字母首末二字),是昔在今在以后永在的全能者。(启1:8)
