时间:2018-12-03 作者:英语课 分类:迷你对话学地道口语
[00:00:15] Does't she not she have any friends?
难道她没有朋友吗?
[00:06:11] If she has, they mus be fair weather friends.
如果有,也一定不是不能与她共患难的朋友。
[00:13:03] Such friends are even worse than enemies.
这样的朋友甚至比敌人还要坏。
[00:16:44] She 'd better keep away from them.
她最好离他们远点儿。
习语:a fair-weather friend
知识点津:fair-weather本指“鸟亮丽的羽毛”,后用以指人“非常风光”。因此a fair-weather person 指的是a person who stops being a friend when one is in trouble,即“不能共患难的人”。
