地道表達(dá):
brush up : 復(fù)習(xí),溫習(xí)
解詞釋義:
brush是動(dòng)詞,意思是“把......刷干凈”。Brush up本義是“打扮整潔”,引申為“重新學(xué)習(xí)過去的技能”,即“溫習(xí),復(fù)習(xí)”。
支持范例:
Eg If you're going to Mexico, you should brush up on your Spanish.
如果你要去墨西哥,你應(yīng)該復(fù)習(xí)你的西班牙文。
Eg. I shall have to brush up my mathematics before I take on that job.
