LECTURE 66 基本動(dòng)詞 GO 2

詞組講解

1. go all out ** 傾注全身心的力量，全力以赴

解 〈口〉習(xí)語；詞義溯源：［完全（all）］［向外（out）］延伸；all out表示“用盡全力”；參照make an all-out effort

例 Yes, I do still paint, but not like I used to when I was younger and not married. I had a lot of free time then so I used to go all out—you know, put everything I had into it.

2. go all the way with sb. / go all the way / go to bed with sb. / go to bed ** 完全同意某人的意見；與某人發(fā)生肉體關(guān)系

解 習(xí)語；詞義溯源：和某人一起到達(dá)［無條件的、遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)的盡頭（all the way）］；婉轉(zhuǎn)用法，需謹(jǐn)慎使用

例 Honey, don't you think it's time you had a father/son talk with Jimmy? He'll be fourteen next year and he's already showing an interest in girls. I've read somewhere that teenagers start going all the way at quite an early age these days, so you'd better talk to him before he makes a mistake.

3. go ape over sb. on sth. / go ape * 沉迷；熱衷

解 俚語；詞義溯源：與某人［關(guān)于（over）］某事處于［瘋狂的、熱衷的（ape）］狀態(tài)

4. go around in circles / go in circles ** 原地轉(zhuǎn)圈，原地踏步；打不起精神

解 〈口〉習(xí)語；詞義溯源：畫著圈［環(huán)繞（around）］而去

例 If you find yourself going around in circles trying to decide what kind of life and health insurance you need, call Umbrella Insurance and ask about our Rainy Day Insurance Plan. Umbrella Insurance—because lift is not always a sunny day.

5. go astray ** 迷路；脫軌；犯錯(cuò)

解 習(xí)語；詞義溯源：處于［迷路、犯錯(cuò)（astray）］的狀態(tài)

例 Be careful, though—sometimes it's easier to make an exception rather than fight to do what you know is right. If you let this happen, you will go astray and your followers will lose faith in you. You can make exceptions, but only when there is no other choice.
