迷你对话:
A: Dad, can you buy a new camera? My old one has gone west.
爸爸,能买个新相机给我么?我的旧的那个坏了。
B: What? I gave 1 it to you only 3 months ago.
什么?我三个月前才给你买的。
A: So, you didn’t buy a good one for me. This time how about a better one?
那就说明你没买个好的给我,这次买个好的怎么样?
B: Ok, son. I think I’ve go to tell you the truth 2. My company 3 has gone out and I’m now out of job. If you want a new camera, go and earn 4 money yourself 5.
好的,儿子,我该跟你说实话了。我的公司倒闭了,我也下岗了,你要是想买个新相机,就自己挣钱吧。
地道表达:go west
解词释义:改习语有两个意思,一个是指“到美国,加拿大西部区去”,这些地区在殖民初期没有移民;第二个意思是“上西天,死”,把这个说法用来形容事物,就是“东西损坏,事物不再存在”的意思。
支持范例:
There be a fire and five year of research 6 work go west.
失了一场火, 五年的研究工作毁于一旦。
Come along 7 boys. Let's go west where you may have a chance 8 to get rich.
来吧,孩子们!我们到西部去,那里或许有机会发财。
