【今日课堂详说】
上回我们就说到cheer up也是振作抖擞精神的意思。今天我们继续来盘点。今天我们要说的是spirit和动词、副词连用表示cheer up的意思。
2. lift one's spirits upEg. You have got to do something fun and exciting to lift your spirits up. 你必须要去做一些有趣的、让你兴奋的事情,这样让你振作起来。I began to doze 1 off and lift my spirits up sharp. 我开始迷迷糊糊睡去了,立刻又惊醒过来。
注解1:要修饰不定代词,修饰的词放于不定代词的后面。注解2: Doze off的意思是打瞌睡。Eg. Why did you doze off again when you're at work? 你怎么又在上班时间打瞌睡?He looks tired all the time. And he would doze off in class. 他看起来总是很疲倦而且经常在课上打瞌睡。注解3:Sharp在例句中是作副词用,意思是突然地,急剧地,相当于suddenly。Eg. “突然停住”就是“stop sharp”。“向左急转弯” 就是“turn sharp left”。
联想1:pluck up one's spirits Eg. You must pluck up your spirit to action. 你必须振作精神,行动起来。We should pluck up our spirits and make a greater effort to achieve success. 我们应该振作精神,为取得成功而更加努力。此外,Pluck up courage意思是鼓起勇气。Eg. I shall have to pluck up courage and speak to her about it. 我得鼓起勇气跟她谈这件事。He could not pluck up enough courage to ask her to marry him. 他鼓不起足够的勇气向她求婚。
联想2:buoy 2 one's spirits up Eg. The party did little to buoy up her spirits. 这次聚会并没有让她振作多少。注解:Buoy 的发音是[b?i],意思是鼓励。(To Be Continued)
