每日一句口语 527(在线收听) |
今天的每日一句是 We went rock climbing at the weekend. I loved it, but my friend refused to try it. He’s got a real yellow streak. 我们周末去攀岩了。我爱攀岩,但我的朋友拒绝尝试。他真是胆小如鼠。 讲解: 如果说某人 has a yellow streak, 那意思就是此人比较胆怯、不勇敢。 如果一个人 has a mean streak, 那此人会经常做出卑劣、尖酸刻薄的事情。 My boss won't give me a pay rise - he's got a real mean streak. 我老板才不会给我加薪呢,他实在是吝啬。 |
