语言详解


 


A: Ralph has really changed. 


    拉夫真的改头换面了。


 


B: You're right. He used to be nerdy. Now he's pretty hip.


    没错。以前他就像书呆子不会打扮。现在穿得可酷着呢。


 


【You're hopeless.   你没救了】


 


如果若有过你的朋友常常天马行空,想些不切实际的做法,你就可以对他说You're hopeless.若你想劝朋友实际一点,就可以说:Be practical 2! 你实际一点!


 


A:    I love writing poetry. That's all I ever think about.


    我喜欢写诗。我满脑子想的都是这件事。


B:    You're hopeless! You might as well resign 3 yourself to being a poor poet.


    你真是无药可救!你干脆去当个穷诗人算了。


 


【take my life/future into my own hands   掌握自己的命运/未来】


 


一个人之所以会说这句话,总是因着“自己的命运要靠自己创造”的雄心壮志,但上面对话里的赫伯特因为太过被动,让唐着急不已,所以决定插手干预,才会说“你的爱情生活由我接管”take your love life into my own hands.


 


A:    Let me help you.


    我来帮你。


B:    Nobody can help me. I'll have to take my future into my own hands.
