 各位亲爱的朋友们,欢迎来到可可早间课堂——跟可可学习语。上回我们学到了一个习语:be fed up with something or somebody.


 
今天我们要学的一个新习语就在我们上期课题中的最后一个例句中,我们来回顾一下这个句子:I'm fed up with that guy who always picks on other female classmates.(我受够了那个家伙,他总是找其他女同学的麻烦。)
 
在这句话中用到一个习语:pick on someone, 它的意思是“找某人的麻烦”。这个片语本来的意思是指“挑某人的毛病,挑剔某人”。Pick本来就有“仔细的耐心的查找,寻拾”的意思,所以用来表示“挑剔某人”应该是比较恰当了。但现在美国人更多的是用这个片语来指“找某人的麻烦”,含有tease or bully 1的意思。To pick on someone means to behave in an unfair way to someone, for example by blaming them or criticizing them unfairly.
 
在看下面的短文之前,我们先看看mean这个词,在下面这个句子中,它的意思是“恶毒的”。
 
John who was big and strong was really mean. He always liked to pick on Tom who seemed to be seriously weak. At the beginning, he pushed him. Later, he punched him in a playful way.
 
这段话是说:John长得高大强壮,很恶毒,而Tom看起来很弱小,他总是喜欢找Tom的麻烦。一开始他动不动就推他,后来又用拳头打他取乐。
 
今天你跟可可学到的习语是:pick on sb,意思是“专门找某人的麻烦”。我们今天的学习就到此结束了,我们下次再见。
