   说到什么事情easy,“小菜一碟”似乎是比较常用的一句话。英文对应的表达中,除了很多人熟悉的As easy as pie和a piece of cake之外,还有很多非常形象的表达法,下面就让我们来看几个关于easy的表达法吧。


  1. As easy as falling off a log 像从圆木上滚落下来一样容易
  如果你曾经试着在平放的圆木上行走,你就能理解这个词语的含义。从圆木上掉落下来比在上面行走容易得多。因而As easy as falling off a log就被用来形容一项毫不费力的工作。

  跳舞很容易。
  2. as easy as/like shooting fish in a barrel 像在桶里叉鱼那样简单;易如反掌

  3. Easy come, easy go 来的容易,去的容易

  聪明的学生学得又快又轻松,但他们学到的知识是不牢固的,容易获得也容易失去嘛。
  4. Easy Street 康庄大道,指生活富裕,舒适
  当生活本身很惬意,你没啥牵挂也没啥麻烦,这就是说你走在Easy Street上。
