A: Stop it, or you'll be sorry!


     够了,不然你会后悔的!


 


B: Stop making idle threats and prove 12 it.


     别再只是说说而已。


 


I guess not. 我想也是】


 


在这段对话中I guess not.是回应上一句否定句,等于说明I guess you don't make idle threats.换句话说,如果上一句没有否定not 语词的话,就派不上用场了。


 


A: Gina's not going to the party.


     吉娜不会去参加派对。


B: I guess not.


     我想也是。


 


turn into a...on someone在……面前表现得……】


 


当你眼前的这个人,在个性或是应对反应上,突然表现得跟平常完全不一样,让你对这突然的转变感到有些不习惯,这时你就可以用这个句型来表达你的想法。


 


A: Could 13 I treat 14 you to dinner tonight?


     我今晚可以请你吃晚饭吗?


B: Don't go turning into a gentleman 15 on me. I won't know what to do.


     你别突然表现得那么绅士。我都不知道该怎么办了。
