   a stand-in. 要注意的是在stand和in之间必须有一个连接号。A stand-in很明显是一个名词。这个说法是出自好莱坞。大家都知道,电影里的惊险动作往往是由别人来代替电影明星演的。这种代替明星的人就是stand-in。每当明星不能参加排练的时候,那个代替他排练的人也是 a stand-in。?


  可是,a stand-in这种说法现在已经不仅仅局限于代替演员的人,它已经扩大到日常生活中去,可以应用在各个方面。凡是一个人临时去代替别人做什么事,那个人就可以被称为a stand-in。?
  The mayor was sick in bed with a sudden attack of the flu so one of the city council members had to be a stand-in for the mayor and go out to meet the governor at the airport.?
  市政委员当中有一个人得代替市长到机场去接州长,因为市长突然感冒,病倒在床。?
  替别人去参加某项活动本来也是正常的,难以避免的。但是,要是一个人经常担当这种角色,他恐怕也会感到厌烦。?
  下面的例子是一个公司的副经理在向经理埋怨。?
  You want me to be a stand-in for you again tonight at the dinner party? Let me tell you, I'm getting tired of being your stand-in all the time. If you don't want to perform your duties, why don't you let me take over your position.?
  你今天又要我替你去参加晚上的晚餐会?我告诉你,你老让我去替你,我都烦死了。要是你不想担负起你的责任,那你为什么不让位,让我来担任你的职位呢?
