今天跟大家分享一些有趣的關(guān)于學(xué)校生活的習(xí)語,我們可以用它們來形容身邊有特點(diǎn)的人,或者某些舉動(dòng),讓我們的口語表達(dá)更加地道生動(dòng)!

1. bookworm = someone who reads a lot.

我們中文里有與之完全對(duì)應(yīng)的翻譯,叫做“書蟲”,整天埋頭看書的人(someone who always has his or her head in a book)。例如:

Chase spent all day in the library revising for the big exam. He’s turned into such a bookworm!

Chase整天呆在圖書館里復(fù)習(xí)考試,他真是變成了一只大書蟲!

有的時(shí)候我們會(huì)用bookish形容“書呆子”(someone who’s interested in reading and studying, rather than in more active or practical things),不過經(jīng)常語氣里含有貶義。

2. copycat= someone who copies the work of another.

這個(gè)表達(dá)通常就是孩子們用來稱呼學(xué)校那些沒有自己的想法,直接抄襲他人功課的學(xué)生的(This word is used especially by children about and to a person who copies what somebody else does because they have no ideas of their own)。例如:

Hazel was accused of being a copycat when the teacher saw her looking at Rob’s exam answers.

Hazel被指責(zé)打小抄,因?yàn)槔蠋熆吹剿得镽ob的試卷答案。

3. teacher’s pet = the teacher’s favorite student

我們中文里稱那些受寵的學(xué)生為“小紅人”,這個(gè)感覺就跟它差不多,而且多含貶義。Pet除了有“寵物”的意思之外,還指那些受重視的人,而且往往這種重視看起來是對(duì)其他人不公平的(a pet is a person who is given special attention by somebody, especially in a way that seems unfair to other people)。例如:

Candida didn’t mind being the teacher’s pet because she always got good grades.

Candida不介意被叫成“小紅人”因?yàn)樗偸悄艿玫胶芨叩姆謹(jǐn)?shù)。

4. dropout = a person who leaves school or college before they have finished their studies

就是“中途輟學(xué)者”。例如:

Mike studied extra hard for his exams because he did not want to be a high school dropout.

Mike加倍努力的備考,因?yàn)樗幌敫咧芯洼z學(xué)。

它的動(dòng)詞形式是drop out of,例如:

She started a degree but dropped out after only a year.

她開始攻讀學(xué)位但是一年后就輟學(xué)了。

5. hit the books = to begin to study hard

這句話我們通常會(huì)聽到老師跟同學(xué)們說,作為讓大家開始學(xué)習(xí)的指令。Hit聽起來就比read有動(dòng)感和力量對(duì)不對(duì)!例如:

Jonas hit the books when he realized that he had a very important exam the next day.

Jonas意識(shí)到他第二天將有一個(gè)重要的考試后,就開始埋頭苦讀了。

6. pass with flying colors = to pass something with a high score

“with flying colors” means very well or with a very high mark/grade,用在取得好成績的時(shí)候簡直再地道不過了!例如:

Julian was uncertain about the important exam even though his teacher told him that he would pass with flying colors!

Julian對(duì)那場(chǎng)重要的考試心里很沒底,雖然他的老師說他肯定會(huì)拿高分的。

7. skip class = to not go to school when you should

“翹課”的地道表達(dá)就是這個(gè)了!例如:

Martin was tempted to skip class because his next lesson involved a difficult math test.

Martin想要翹課,因?yàn)橄鹿?jié)課要進(jìn)行一場(chǎng)很難的數(shù)學(xué)考試。

Skip這里的意思就是to not do something that you usually do or should do,比如你想減肥,于是你可能skip dinner,或者中午太忙,就skip lunch等等。

以后大家在談?wù)撚嘘P(guān)學(xué)校話題的時(shí)候,不妨嘗試使用以上幾個(gè)地道表達(dá),讓你的小伙伴們對(duì)你刮目相看吧!
