“全天候”怎么说
我们常常见到有很多全天候开放的餐馆或是其他服务场所,通常都会有醒目的"24 hours"标志,这就是"24小时营业",和"全天候"的意思差不多。不过要形容"一天到晚,全天候,时时刻刻"该怎么说呢,我们来看下面的对话: A: Are you and Christina still together? B: No. I'm not seeing her anymore. She's the kind of girl that likes to hang around 24-7. That was just too much for me, so... "24-7" 指的是"24 hours a day, 7 days a week" 的意思,那就是"整天、随时"了。念的时候念 "twenty-four seven" 就可以了。 再给大家介绍一个关于时间的片语,on the nose,意思是"整点;完全",例如: A: What time is it, honey? B: It's six pm on the nose. 除了表示时间的整点外,"on the nose"还有"完全"(= exactly) 的意思。好比你的心事被一个朋友看透了。你就可以对他说"Your guess was right on the nose." (你的猜测完全正确。) 改编自:考试吧 |
