5 短语的内涵意义
英语中一些短语、习语表达不能从字面意思中看出它们要表达的意义。比如说 out of the question 表达“不可能”的意义,而 out of question 则表达“没问题,办得到”的概念。两者虽然只相差一词,意思却大相径庭。如果这方面的知识匮乏,就会严重影响理解,因此,平时在积累单词的过程中需多记忆一些常用的表达法。
Example
You will hear:
Man:Cooking for yourself is a lot better than eating dormitory food.
Woman:You can say that again.
Question:What does the woman mean?(https://www.daowen.com)
You will read:
A.The man is always eating.
B.She agrees with the man.
C.She wants him to tell her what he ate.
D.This is the second time the man said that.
You can say that again.这个表达法通常表示赞同的概念,意为“你说得没错!”,所以正确答案应为B项。
