聽到張旋要結(jié)婚的消息,我還真不敢相信。念書時(shí),他睡在我上鋪,記得那時(shí),因?yàn)榘祽僖晃唤行≡呐?,在人家生日的時(shí)候,他送了一束玫瑰時(shí)說“請接受我吧!”,本來就對他心儀已久的小曾激動得不行,可他卻接著說了句“我愛你,Marica”, 接下來臉上就挨了一巴掌…,原來他呼叫的Marica正是小曾的同桌!你說這么一個(gè)總是把事情搞砸(mess things up)的家伙現(xiàn)在居然要結(jié)婚了?!
對了片語mess up就是“弄糟,搞砸”的意思。Mess本來就有“混亂、雜亂”的意思,帶上介詞成為詞組表示“把事情搞砸了”的意思,相當(dāng)于make a mess of; put into disorder or confusion.看個(gè)例子:
Late arrival of the train messed up all our plans.
(火車誤點(diǎn),把我們的計(jì)劃的全弄糟了。)
The pilots'strike messed up our holiday.
(飛行員的罷工打亂了我們的假日活動。)
這個(gè)片語用處很多,考試考砸了可以用,頭發(fā)弄亂了也可以用,下次偶到類似的表達(dá)記得用一用哦!對了,記得大妮子在世博英語論壇里貼了一個(gè)叫“比爾.蓋茨的11條準(zhǔn)則 ”的貼子,里面就有一條包含著這么個(gè)短語。這里共享一下。
If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about our mistakes, learn from them.
(如果你陷入困境,那不是你父母的過錯(cuò),所以不要尖聲抱怨我們的錯(cuò)誤,要從中吸取教訓(xùn)。)
張旋正在建設(shè)三峽水電站,居然還記得我這個(gè)身在四川的好友,是的,我們的友誼是經(jīng)得起時(shí)間和空間的考驗(yàn)的(tried-and-true).
對了這里又有了一個(gè)片語tried-and-true,意思是“經(jīng)得起時(shí)間考驗(yàn)的,經(jīng)過試驗(yàn)證明是可靠的?!笨纯从⑽睦蠋煹慕忉專?BR> If something is tried-and-true, it means that has been tried and tested and shown to be true, reliable or successful. For example ,if a cookbook has tried-and-true recipes, it means that the recipes in the cookbook have all been tried and proven to produce the delicious food .If a cure for illness is tried-and-true, then the cure has been tested and cured the people of the illness. A friendship is tried and true if the two of you have been through difficult times and ralationship ,yet have still been able to remain as friends.
老師講得例子較多,我再舉兩個(gè):
If the two of you treat each other sincerely, you'll have a friendship that's tried-and-true.
(如果你們彼此真心對待,你們就擁有經(jīng)得住考驗(yàn)的友誼)
This is our tried-and-true method. We've done it many times and we know it works.
(這是我們經(jīng)過證明的可靠的方法,我們已經(jīng)做過許多次,并且知道行得通的。)
結(jié)束語:今天從市場上買來一條魚,頭一次做“酸菜魚”,還請了朋友來品嘗我的“杰作”,可是放鹽太多,味道像酸水,我想我是搞砸了(mess it up),看來,下次請朋友吃飯,還是要做那些以前做過,證明是delicious才好?。╰ried-and-true food)!
