第二、对话精讲

1. 地道表达

地道短语】the shot in the arm

解词释义】此习语源于20世纪20年代吸毒者所用的俚语。Shot原意为“注射”,最初该语是指“麻醉剂下的注射”。现在该语常用语口语,比喻指“兴奋剂,刺激物,激励”,常与“get, have, give”等词连用。有时候可以翻译为中文中的“强行针”。

支持范例】The money was a great shot in the arm for the company.

对该公司来说,这笔钱真可谓是雪中送炭。

The big sale was a shot in the arm to the failing company.

那笔大生意给那间摇摇欲坠的公司打气。

Your encouraging words were a real shot in the arm.

你对我的鼓励真是一针兴奋剂。

For journalists and radio commentators 1 the raid had been a mighty 2 shot in the arm.

对新闻记都和电台的时事评论员来说,这次出击倒是一大兴奋剂。

第三、词海拾贝

go up

双语释义】If a price, amount, or level goes up, it becomes higher or greater than it was. 译为:(价格、数量或水平)上涨,上升

语法信息】~ to/from/by

典型例句】The cost has gone up to $1.95 a minute.
