英语口语练习小对话 第525期:令大吃一惊,吓一大跳

Source: 恒星英语学习网    2014-03-29  我要投稿   论坛   Favorite  

A: I will state many special opinions. I will throw the professor some curves.

我将陈述许多新观点。我会让教授大吃一惊。

B: That is very exciting! How would you do?

真是令人兴奋!你怎么做呢?

1. 解释

Throw sb some curves这个短语来自棒球场上,打球者以为投手会投出直球,但是眼前飞来的却是curve,意思是“让某人大吃一惊,让某人吓一跳”。其英文解释为:to confuse someone by doing something tricky or unexpected.

2. 例句

e.g. When you said "house" you threw me a curve. The password was supposed to be "home."

当你说到house这个词的时候,吓了我一大跳,密码应该是home。

e.g. John threw me a curve when we were making our presentation, and I forgot my speech.
