英語口語練習(xí)小對(duì)話 第183期:腳踏兩只船
迷你對(duì)話：
A: My mother and my wife are always holding different ideas.
我母親和我妻子的意見總是不統(tǒng)一。
B: If you are really in love with your wife, you should be in support of her. You can’thave it both ways, of course.
如果你要是真愛你的妻子，你應(yīng)該支持她。你總不能兩者兼顧吧。
A: You mean I should please her by following her suggestion.
你的意思是我應(yīng)該聽從她的而取悅于她。
B: Yeah. Love me, and love my dog.
是的，愛屋及烏嘛。
地道表達(dá)：
have it both ways
解詞釋義：
have it的意思是“取得優(yōu)勢(shì)”，那么have it both ways的意思就是“兩方面取得優(yōu)勢(shì)”，也就是“兩方面都討好”的意思，跟中文中的“腳踏兩只船”意思相近。
支持范例：
Eg. You can't have it both ways. She is either lying or she's not
你不能一時(shí)說東，一時(shí)說西。她要么在撒謊，要么沒撒謊。
Eg. You 'll have to decide whether you want to stay with your sister or you want to go on holiday; you can not have it both ways.
你必須決定是跟姐姐在家還是去度假,不能腳踏兩條船。
Eg. You have to choose one or the other-you can't have it both ways!
你得二者選其一，不可能兩全其美。
