英語短語積累:To while away the time
學(xué)習(xí)啦:英語短語需要在日常中進(jìn)行積累才能更好的在考試時運(yùn)用,下面我們一起看看這篇《To while away the time》。
一個人在消磨時間的時候往往都會做一些輕松開心的事。To while away the time純粹是為了放松而放松或者是以輕松的方式消磨時間以便等待其他事情。
例句:
The film doesn’t start for another hour. Why don’t we while away the time with a walk in the park?
When I was a teenager I used to while away the time listening to music in my room.
請注意:
如果一件事做起來值得,有益處,就可以用“worth your while”來表達(dá)。不過,你會發(fā)現(xiàn)這個短語多用于否定句,說明沒價值,不值得。
例句
It’s not worth your while going all the way into university for the meeting. It’ll only take about 10 minutes. Let’s do it online.
It’s not a great job. The pay is really bad and it’s only a two-week contract. I don’t think it’s even worth your while filling out an application.
