字號(hào):

活學(xué)活用
    1. go for
    這里的意思是“have a special liking for特別喜歡,癡迷”,比如:I really go for progressive jazz. 我真的很喜歡前衛(wèi)爵士。
    2. hang out
    這個(gè)片語(yǔ)大家應(yīng)該都不陌生,就是指“keep company with, appear in public with好友在一起打發(fā)時(shí)間”,比如:She's hanging out with her ex-boyfriend again. 她又和她的前男友混在一起。
    下文中的get together 也可以表示“come together, assemble 聚會(huì)”,注意兩個(gè)人一起也可以叫g(shù)et together,所以 Kevin說(shuō)“I can get together”,再比如:Let's get together next week. 我們下周聚一下吧。
    而 get together with 則表示“meet with someone見(jiàn)面”,例如:I can't get together with them today but I'll have time next week. 我今天不能和他們見(jiàn)面,但我下周就有時(shí)間了。
    再下文中的meet up 也是指“encounter, especially by accident見(jiàn)面”了,比如:Let's meet up at 8 o'clock tonight. 我們今晚8點(diǎn)見(jiàn)面吧。
    我們講到的這三種表達(dá)都有“見(jiàn)面,在一起”的意思,不過(guò),要表示男女朋友之間的約會(huì),還是用 go out和date,比如:Do you want to go out with me tonight? I have a date with my girlfriend this weekend.
    3. grab lunch
    “Grab”是“抓取”的意思, grab lunch這里就是“隨便吃個(gè)午餐”的意思。我們熟悉的常用片語(yǔ)還有“grab a bite匆匆忙忙、簡(jiǎn)單吃點(diǎn)東西”,例如:I'm going to grab a bite. Do you want me to bring you anything? 我要去吃點(diǎn)東西。要不要幫你帶什么東西?
    4. hook up with
    這個(gè)片語(yǔ)的意思是“form a tie or association和……有聯(lián)系”,例如:She had hooked up with the wrong crowd. 她曾和那些小混混們混在一起。
