ABC答客問
答 問題 大聲公
客
問
我請朋友幫忙,朋友立刻說沒問題,「包在我身上」, 請問這句話英文怎麼說?
Shirley
leave 在此是動詞「把……交給;委託」的意思,這句話直譯為「把
小老師說
A: I need someone to copy this file for me. 我需要有人幫我影印這份資料。
某事交給我」,也就是「讓我來處理、包在我身上」的意思。除此 之外,還可以說 I’ll do it./I’ll take care of it.。
• A: I can’t fix this bike. 我修不好這台腳踏車。
B: Don’t worry. Leave it to me.
B: OK. I’ll take care of it.
別擔心,包在我身上。
好,交給我吧。
問題 大聲公
請問「他對我很冷淡」英文怎麼說? 藍波
小老師說
Gina gave her boyfriend the cold shoulder. 吉娜對她男友很冷淡。
問題 大聲公
the cold shoulder 直譯是「冷肩膀」,用來形容「冷淡的態度」, give (someone) the cold shoulder 就是「對(某人)很冷淡; 冷落(某人)」的意思。 • I don’t know why Eddie gave me the cold shoulder. 我不知道艾迪為什麼對我這麼冷淡。
請問「空歡喜一場」英文怎麼表示?
小老師說
The news about the good economy was just a false dawn. 經濟復甦的消息只是空歡 喜一場。
小花 ;dawn [ d7n ] 指「黎明; false [ f7ls ] 是形容詞「假的;不真實的」 曙光」,false dawn 意指太陽升起之前,讓人誤以為是日出的假 曙光,後來引申為「空歡喜;虛幻的一絲希望」的意思。 補充
(Something) is a letdown. 也可用在原本對某事物抱有高度期望,後來 卻落空的情況。
• I really hoped that the movie would be good, but
it was a big letdown. 我真希望那是一部好電影,但它讓我很失望。 10

1. some popcorn
3. talk too much
popcorn [ `p3p%k7rn ]「爆米花」是不可數名詞,其後不可加 s, 前面也不加 a/an。 類似用法的字還有 butter「奶油」、sugar 「糖」和 salt「鹽」等,也是不可數名詞,讀者可以一併記起來。 • I ate lots of popcorn, so I had a stomachache. 我吃了很多爆米花,所以肚子痛。 • This tea has a little sugar. 這杯茶有加一點糖。 (注意不可數名詞要用 much/little 表示 「多/少」)
• I think you sleep too much. 我覺得你睡太多了。 • I love you so much. 我愛你至深。
4. Nick got angry at the man.
2. in front of vs. in the front of 兩者差異如下:
A is in front of B.
A is in the front of B.
指 A 在 B 的前面
指 A 在 B 內部的前側 (A 是 B 的一部分)
(A、B 是分開的)
• There is a dog in
front of the car.
修飾動詞的程度,可用 V. + too/so/very much 來表示,例 如 常 見 的 Thank you very much!「 非 常 感 謝 你!」,too much/so much/very much 的位置通常在句尾。注意英文 沒有 too more 的用法。
• Ruby is sitting in
那台車前面有一隻狗。
the front of the car. 露比坐在車子前座。
go + adj. 多用在「顏色的改變」(如 Jack’s hair went gray.)、 「 耳 朵 變 聾(deaf) 或 眼 睛 變 瞎(blind)」( 如 He went blind.),以及與 crazy 連用表示「變得瘋狂」(I’m going to go crazy!)等三種情況,而談到有關一般的「情緒、感受」 時, 則 會 用 get 或 become, 如 文 中 的 get angry 或 get/ become bored。 • Anne’s boyfriend got/became jealous. 安的男朋友吃醋了。 • Beethoven wrote many songs after he went deaf. 貝多芬耳聾後仍作出多首曲子。
5. Please be quiet. 此為祈使句的用法,祈使句會省略主詞 you,以原形動詞開頭, 如 Stand up.「站起來」、Please sit down.「請坐下」等。 若遇形容詞,則要在形容詞前加上 be 動詞的原形「be」,因 此文中要改成 Please be quiet. 才正確。 • Please be nice to my friend. 請對我朋友好一點。 • Please give me that pencil. 請給我那枝鉛筆。
在此作者欲表達「坐在瑪麗前面的人」,因此要說 the person in front of Mary 才正確。

Claude Monet is one of the world’s most famous artists. Although Monet passed away almost1 100 years ago, his art2 is still in many different museums. When Monet was a young man, he was already a very good artist. His father owned3 a grocery store,* and he hoped that one day his son would take it over. However, Monet didn’t want to enter4 his family’s business.5 He wanted to become an artist. When he was about 20, Monet moved6 to Paris to make his dream come true. In Paris, Monet did more than just become famous. He broke many of the rules that other artists followed. He also helped to create a new style* of painting called “Impressionism.” 莫內位於吉維尼故居

When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown And with the cataclysm raining down [ `k1t4%kl6z4m ]
Insides crying, “Save me now” You were there impossibly alone2 Do you feel cold and lost in desperation [ %d5sp4`re]4n ]
You build up hope but failure’s3 all you’ve known Remember all the sadness and frustration [ %fr9s`tre]4n ]
And let it go Let it go And in a burst of light that blinded4 every angel As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars You felt the gravity of tempered grace [ `gr1v4t6 ]

Falling into empty space No one there to catch you in their arms
