   pooper来自poop。 poop这个词有一种解释是筋疲力尽,说poop out意思是累得喘不过气来了。那么party pooper是聚会上什么样的人呢?


  我们通过一个例子来体会吧。这是夫妇俩在商量举办party的事情。他们正在考虑想邀请哪些人来参加。他俩提到了一个名叫Joe的朋友。我们听听那位先生怎么对太太评论Joe。注意他话里的习惯用语party pooper:
  例句:Honey 1, let's not invite 2 Joe. He's a real 3 party pooper. He puts on this sour look like his stomach 4 hurts, has nothing good to say about anybody 5, doesn't even 6 smile at other people's jokes 7 and always looks like he'd rather 8 be any place else.
  这位先生建议太太不要请Joe。他说Joe老是愁眉苦脸的,好象在胃疼,而且他不苟言笑,跟旁人无话可谈,听了别人说的笑话甚至连笑都不笑。他自始至终看来是宁可不来赴会的模样。
  根据这位先生对Joe的这番描述,Joe在聚会上真是个孤僻冷漠、兴味索然而令人扫兴的人。这就是party pooper这个习惯用语的意思。
