小编:长安 138今天跟随长春环球教育连莹莹老师来继续雅思口语习语的积累,用最简单的词,使用最地道的习语表达,让你的语言增色,给你的雅思口语加分。
1.(your) heart goes out to (someone).
英文解释为:If your heart goes out to someone, you feel great sympathy for them.
中文意思即为同情。
下面举个例子We're so sorry to hear of your loss,and our hearts go out to you in this difficult time.
那么我们回忆一下当季口语题库里面的一个话题save money,有一道题目是这样的Did you ever give money to other children?
很多同学看到这个题目觉得好难啊,就一直在想,我给没给过别的孩子钱?苦思冥想的,但其实你要记得,实话不重要,重要的是你能否用好的语言和逻辑将答案说出来!
比如这道题,我们就可以说Sure, I remember once I gave some of my pocket money to a kid who begged on the street,it seemed that he was only at the age of 9 or 10, at that point, my heart went out to him and gave
him 10 yuan. So that is a really memorable experience for me.
怎么样,这样是不是很自然就用上了呢?大家一定要脑洞大一些!
2.kill time.
英文解释是这样的You kill time when you do something to amuse yourself while waiting for something.
中文解释是消磨时间。
举个例子For example:I had to kill time at the airport because of the delay so I bought a book of crossword puzzles.
这个短语,在我们当季很多话题中都可以用得到这个表达,比如在spare time 话题中,what do you do in your spare time?以及being bored 中what do you usually do when you are bored? 这类问题我们都可以说做某件事打发时间。
比如,Well, there are a variety of things to do when I am free/feel bored, like working out in the gym, watching American TV series as well as hanging out with my friends.
Actually, I think watching TV series would be the perfect way for me to kill time coz...
这回会使用这个短语了吧?
