口语:英语如何表达“老掉牙”？
英语课
为什么就不能整点儿新鲜的呢？又是老一套！当事情没了新意，小伙伴们开始感到厌烦那简直是一定的。如何用英文戳穿“老一套”的痛点，下面就来围观吧！
1. Corny陈芝麻烂谷子的事情又拿出来抖了…… corny本身有“谷类的”意思，这里它的意思是指“老套的、老土的”。
e 1.g. I know it sounds corny, but it really was 2 love at first sight 3!
我知道这听上去很老土，但是那时真的是一见钟情。
2. Fuddy-duddy如果想说某个人非常不前卫，思想和态度都特别保守，我们可以称他为fuddy-duddy，中文可以说是“老古板”。
e.g. He's just an old fuddy-duddy.
他就是个老古板。
3. Cut and dried有些事情不用想就知道了答案，做事总爱搬出老一套。这种情况可以用cut and dried来形容，表示已经没什么新意了。
e.g. It was all cut and dried - the same old speakers 4 saying 5 the same things they said 6 last year.
什么都是老一套。发言的都还是去年那些人，讲的话也跟去年一样。
4. Same old story周而复始，事情一遍又一遍地发生着，可是每次都是一个情况，教人厌倦至极！
e.g. I'm tired of it, the same old story.
我已经厌倦了，都是老一套。
5. Old-schoolOld-school, 可不是“老学校”的意思。它既有“老派的，守旧的”意思，也能表示“传统的，怀旧的”含义。
e.g. We had 7 an old-school coach 8 who made 9 us run two kilometers 10 every day.
我们的教练很老派，每天都让我们跑两公里。
