繼續(xù)講turn這個小詞。
你有過被人拒絕的經(jīng)歷嘛？派對的邀請被朋友拒絕，求職被面試的公司拒絕，更慘的是被喜歡的人拒絕...表示"拒絕"的英文很多，有deject, refuse, decline...今天教給大家一個很簡單的turn down（是的，我知道這個詞也有"把聲音關(guān)小"的意思, yet I don't think it's worth mentioning here...）比如 He popped the question last night. But I turned him down.（他昨晚向我求婚了，但是我拒絕了他）或者也可以說 Katie has a pretty tight schedule this weekend so she turned down the dinner invitation.（Katie這周末很忙，所以她婉拒了晚宴邀請）
turn這個詞在大家印象里肯定跟"開關(guān)"有很大關(guān)系，例如turn on/off the light.但是口語里面，同樣的短語，意思卻有很大變化哦~先說說turn on. turn someone on to something,意思是"激發(fā)起某人對某事的興趣"。我一直很不喜歡看話劇，但是自從上回來北京看了《戀愛中的犀?！?，我對話劇的興趣立即被激發(fā)了。I was totally turned on to drama.（友情提醒：這里的to后面一定要跟名詞或者ing哦~）turn on someone,也是一個用法，意思是attack,指責(zé)別人。Give a second thought to it before you turn on your coworkers.（在你指責(zé)你的同事之前請三思）
turn off和turn on是一對antonym（反義詞），比如你可以說All those Hollywood big budget productions have turned me off!（好萊塢大片已經(jīng)讓我倒了胃口）現(xiàn)在的電影是越來越?jīng)]意思了，為了追求商業(yè)利益，the directors turn a deaf ear to the audiences' demands. turn a deaf ear就是我們常說的"把...當(dāng)耳旁風(fēng)".有個類似的短語turn a blind eye,大家也能猜到意思啦，"視而不見" Never turn a blind eye to Kaitlin's magic words! Ha ha! Keep your eyes wide open to the magic of English。
