　　B: Sure.

　　第二、 對(duì)話精講

　　1. 地道核心表達(dá)

　　【核心短語(yǔ)】be above oneself

　　【解詞釋義】above在該習(xí)語(yǔ)中做介詞，意思是“高于，在......之上”。Above oneself是形容某人因興高采烈而得意忘形，趾高氣揚(yáng)的樣子，該習(xí)語(yǔ)通常被用作表語(yǔ)。

　　【典型例句1】He gets above himself sometimes.

　　他有時(shí)自視過(guò)高。

　　【典型例句2】That child needs to have a strict teacher; he's getting far above himself.

　　那孩子需要找個(gè)嚴(yán)格的老師，他變得太狂妄了。

　　【典型例句3】She' s been getting a bit above herself since winning her award.

　　她獲獎(jiǎng)以來(lái)，漸漸有點(diǎn)驕傲了。

　　【典型例句4】His recent successes puffed him above himself.

　　近來(lái)的成功使他趾高氣揚(yáng)。

　　【典型例句5】She has got far above herself and now it's time she was taken down a peg.

　　她太自以為了不起了，是該殺殺她的威風(fēng)的時(shí)候了。

　　第二、句海拾貝

　　【句型模板】What of ......?

　　【語(yǔ)法用法】of的后面通常接it，this，that。表示“你認(rèn)為......怎么樣?”“......有什么關(guān)系呢?”“......有重要性呢?”

　　【句型操練】Yes, I wrote it. What of it?

　　不錯(cuò), 是我寫(xiě)的。那又怎么樣呢?
