美剧原声：

William: I never understood why they paired some of you off. Seems cruel. 我从来都没搞明白他们怎么把你们一些人配对的。看起来真残酷。

今日知识点：

黑衣人William说的这段话中有一个动词短语：

Pair off 配对

例句：The teacher said we needed to pair off for this activity so you want to be my partner? 老师说我们这个活动要配对，所以你想跟我搭档吗？

例句：Everyone paired off and left me alone towards the end of the party. I was just watching a movie by myself. 每个人都有搭档了，到派对快结束的时候我只能一个人。 我就一直一个人看电影。

除了 Pair off 我们生活中还有其他的表达方式：

Find a partner 找一个搭档，配对

例句：The teacher said each person needed to find a partner. 老师说每个人要找到一个搭档。

还可以这样说：

Partner up 找一个搭档，配对

例句：The teacher said we needed to partner up. 老师说每个人要找到一个搭档。
