Dear John letter
1. 解词释义
Dear John letter是指“绝交信”,是美式习语。John Bull是美国人称呼英国人的一种方式。在美国人的眼中,英国人古板,愚蠢,无法打交道,并且两国在历史上还曾经是敌对国。于是,该习语便成了“绝交信”的代名词。
2. 拓展范例
e.g. Reading between the lines, he knew it was a Dear John letter.
他从字里行间看出这是一封绝交信。
e.g. Her Dear John letter finally caught up with me while I was awaiting discharge.
她的绝情书终于在我等候复员时送到我手中。
e.g. I received a dear John letter from my girl friend which broke my heart.
我收到女友来的绝交信,令我伤心欲绝。
e.g. Tom was very upset today, for he got a Dear John letter from his girlfriend.

咱们在岛上等的时候可以玩个痛快。
e.g. I hope you will have a good time during your stay in China.
我希望你在中国逗留期间过得愉快。
2. not really:不完全是,不见得
e.g. He' s not really angry he' s just acting 2 the stern father .
他倒不是真生气--只是装装严父的样子罢了。
e.g. The movies flatter him but he's not really that handsome.
电影使他显得漂亮,但是他实际上没有那么英俊。
3. smell a rat:感到不妙,发现可疑之处
e.g. Didn't you smell a rat when they agreed to sell you the goods at such a price?
当他们同意把那批货以那样的价格卖给你的时候,难道你没有感到有些可疑吗?
e.g. If there is any substantial number of genuine agents there, the Abwehr will smell a rat.

e.g. Every time I saw her, my necklace disappeared, which made me begin to smell a rat.

他心里有底,一点不慌。
e.g. She' s not at all a proper person for you to know.
