別人說You’re on fire可不是“你著火啦” ！

NO.1

fire最最的基礎(chǔ)意思

fire=火

點火=light a fire

滅火=put out the fire

在這個基本詞意上：

The house is on fire

房子起火了

NO.2

You're on fire不是你起火了!

fire還能表示情緒熱情

fire的第二個意思是：strong emotion;

精神狀態(tài)好

例句：

Man， you're on fire!

天啊，你狀態(tài)真不錯!

(火力全開，根本停不下來)

NO.3

Play with fire真的是“玩火”嗎?

玩火一般形容從事有巨大風(fēng)險，

不理智的事情

英文中，

play with fire 和中文意思差不多

play with fire 的意思是： to act in a way that is very dangerous and to take risk. 冒著風(fēng)險從事危險的行為

例句：

Dating the boss's daughter is playing with fire.

約會老板的女兒，這簡直就是在玩火

NO.4

Have irons in the fire

iron=鐵

Have irons in the fire不能按字面意思翻譯

have (a few)several irons in the fire的意思是：to be involved in several different activities or have serveral plans all happening at the same time.同時有好幾件事情要做

例句：

Don't bother her because she has many irons in the fire.

別打擾她，她事情太多，忙得很!

fire的這些意思你學(xué)會了嗎?
