   Subject : Our laundry is round the clock.


  第一, 迷你对话
  A: Excuse me, when do you close down?
  打搅一下,请问你们什么时候关门?
  B: Our laundry is round the clock.
  我们洗衣店是24小时服务的。
  第二,地道表达
  round the clock
  1. 解词释义
  Round the clock的意思是“整天整夜”“夜以继日”,相当于“day and night”或“24 hours”。如果有round-the clock shop这样的字样,就表示这家店是24小时营业的。由此,我们看到将round the clock用连字符连接起来,就变成了形容词:round-the-clock。那么,剧情中服务员说:“Our laundry is round the clock.”也可以说为“We are a round-the-clock laundry.”
  2. 拓展例句
  e.g. Rescue services have been working round the clock to free stranded 1 motorists.
  救援部门一直在日夜不停地工作,解救被困司机。
  e.g. We are working all round the clock to finish this dictionary!
  我们在为完成这本词典而昼夜不停地工作着!
  e.g. His parents kept a round-the-clock vigil at his bedside.
  他父母日夜守护在他的床边。
  e.g. Police mounted 2 round-the-clock guards on properties last night.
  警方昨晚通宵值守财物。
  第三,咬文嚼字
  Close down在本剧中的意思是“关门停止营业”的意思,它还可以表示“广播或电视台停止播放当天节目”和“经济萧条,经营不好而倒闭停业”。
  e.g. Television closed down for the night after eleven o'clock.
  晚上11点过后, 电视台停止播放节目。
  e.g.They will have to close down soon. Business is too bad.
  他们将不得不歇业, 生意太坏了。
