    《性爱自修室》资源,关注公众号“英美剧学习笔记”,就GET啦!

    另外,公众号还有英美剧汁源汇总哦!!

    1. power

    power是能力,本领,来看一下竭尽全力的表达。

    例句:

    He was so shocked by what happened to his parents that he lost the power of speech.

    发生在他父母身上的事使他惊呆了,他一句话也说不出来。

    The surgeon did everything in her power to save him.

    医生竭尽全力抢救他。

    2. grapevine

    grapevine是葡萄藤;葡萄属植物。

    习语是这个“hear (sth) through/on the grapevine”。

    英语释义:to hear news from someone who heard the news from someone else

    中文意思是“从传闻中听说,通过道听途说获悉,听小道消息知道”。

    I heard through the grapevine that he was leaving - is it true?

    我听到传闻说他要离开了——是真的吗?

    3. meet sb halfway

    to do some of the things that someone wants you to do, in order to show that you want to reach an agreement or improve your relationship with them

    迁就(某人),对(某人)作出让步

    4. monkey

    这里的monkey不是猴子,是钱哦!

    在英国, monkey是500英镑!

    原因在这里:

    £500 became known as a "monkey" sometime in the Victorian era because soldiers returning from India used the same term to refer to the Indian 500 rupee note - it had a picture of a monkey printed on it.

    500英镑在维多利亚时代的某个时候被称为“猴子”,因为从印度回来的士兵用这个词来指代印度500卢比纸币——纸币上印着一只猴子。

    补充monkey习语吧——

    ①make a monkey out of sb 使(某人)出丑;耍弄,愚弄(某人)

    ②I'll be a monkey's uncle!(表示惊讶)天哪!哎呀!

    ③not give a monkey's 一点都不在乎,完全无所谓
