对话精讲
第一、地道表达
核心短语】(and) that’s flat
解词释义】flat在该短语中意思为“全然的,彻底的,十足的”。此语出自莎士比亚的《亨利四世》上篇第二场。其中写道:...no eye hath seen such scarecrows. I’ll not march through Coventry with them, that’s flat...(译文:谁也没见过这么瘦的这么可怜的人,我不愿意带着他们列队经过芬特里,无需多言)。因此,此语的意思是:绝对如此,无需多言。
典型范例1】 I' m not going out with you and that' s flat !
我不跟你出去, 说定了!
典型范例2】I don't care whether you go on the outing1, but I'm not, and that's flat!
