   Subject: Stick to the guns.


  迷你对话
  A: Some of my colleagues look down upon me, because I am considered to be a man without my own standpoint.
  我的一些同事瞧不起我,因为我被认为是一个没有自己立场的人。
  B: You should change yourself right now. Stick to your guns!
  你应该从现在开始就改变自己,坚持自己的立场!
  地道表达
  stick to one’s guns
  1. 解词释义
  Stick的意思是“坚持”,短语stick to的意思是“坚持做某事”。Stick to one’s guns的字面意思是“坚持拿着自己的抢”,比喻为“坚持立场”。
  2. 拓展例句
  e.g. Pumpkin 1, I hear that some of the students at your school are fooling around with drugs. But I hope, young woman, that you stick to your guns and keep saying no!
  小鬼,我听说你们学校的学生里有吸毒的现象。我希望你坚持正道,坚决抵制这种恶习!
  e.g. I have to admire the ladies who fifty years ago worked so hard to get women the right to vote. People laughed at them at first but they stuck to their guns and got the congress to pass the 19th Amendment 2 back in 1920.
  我很钦佩以前那些女士们,她们五十年前努力为妇女争取选举权。开始,许多人都笑话她们。但是,她们坚定不移,最后在1920年终于促使国会通过了美国宪法的第十九项修正案。
  3. 视野拓展
  stick to something:坚持做某事
  e.g. Lionel, you just tell the cops what you saw; stick to your story.
  莱昂内尔,你就把自己看到的告诉警察,实话实说。
  e.g. Remember, stick to the issues and don't take it personally.
  记住,就事论事,不要把问题个人化。
  Ps 1:look down upon sb.的意思是“蔑视某人,瞧不起某人,看不起某人”等意思。例如:
  e.g. We must not look down upon those who have lagged behind.
  我们不应该瞧不起后进的人。
  e.g. People usually look down upon social climbers.
  人们通常瞧不起社会上那些攀龙附凤的人。
  Ps 2:right now是表示时间的副词性短语,意思是“马上,现在”。例如:

  e.g. Right now the poor old devil's drinking himself silly.

  Ps 3:standpoint的意思是“立场,看法,观点,看问题的角度”。对话中“without one’s won standpoint”的意思是“没有主见”。例如:from the standpoint of the customer的意思是“从顾客的角度来说”。再如:
  He believes that from a military standpoint, the situation is under control.
  他认为从军事角度来看,局势已得到控制。
  Ps 4:consider是考虑的意思,注意它的结构,它后面可以接2个名次,即:consider sb. sb.,第二个sb.是做第一个sb.的宾语补足语。实际上,它的用法是consider sb. as sb,这里省略了解词as。例如:
  He will be considered a weak leader.
  他会被认为是个软弱无能的领导人。
