看美劇學(xué)地道英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ):Hit有哪些用法
在紐約上大學(xué)的Michael明天將來(lái)要考試,可是他的中國(guó)同學(xué)李華一定要他去參加一個(gè)聚會(huì)。李華今天學(xué)到的兩個(gè)常用語(yǔ)是:hit 跟to roll。
L:Michael,你允許跟我一起來(lái)加入聚會(huì),我得謝謝你呀! 你曉得嗎,我不太習(xí)慣在這種場(chǎng)合跟那些不意識(shí)的人聊天。 嗨, Michael,那不是你的朋友Steve嗎?我聽(tīng)說(shuō),只有有party 他必定參加。
M:Yeah, he's the hit of all these parties.
L:他是什么?Hit? Hit不是打人嗎?
M:No, "hit" here means he is the most popular person at these parties. "Hit" is a word used to describe someone or something that makes a favorable impression.
L:啊呀,英文可真難學(xué)。一個(gè)詞在這里是這個(gè)意思,在那里又變了意思。你說(shuō)的hit是指大家都很喜好的人。那hit用做這個(gè)意思的時(shí)候能指東西嗎?
M:Yeah, things can also be called a hit. For instance, you can say "that song is a hit with teenagers".
L:對(duì)了,有的歌曲非常熱門,這也能稱為hit。 你方才說(shuō):"That song is a hit with teeangers", 意思是:"青少年特別喜歡的一首歌。" 這么說(shuō),"年輕人喜歡的一首歌"就是。。。
M:That song is a hit with young people.
L: 一個(gè)受歡迎的電視節(jié)目也能說(shuō)是hit嗎?
M:Yes, you can! A hit TV program.
L:Michael, 我聽(tīng)說(shuō)好多女孩兒都很喜歡你!
M:No, that's not true!
L:我認(rèn)識(shí)的女孩都說(shuō)你很帥!我想她們那么喜歡你,你恐怕還不知道自己是a hit with girls!
M:Oh, stop it, Li Hua! You're embarrassing me.
L:?jiǎn)眩氵€會(huì)不好意思吶!得了,去拿點(diǎn)東西吃吧,我餓了。
L:Michael, 我們來(lái)了有兩個(gè)小時(shí)了吧,英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)網(wǎng)站! 我倒是認(rèn)識(shí)了很多很有意思的人。
M:Yeah, the people here are pretty cool, but I'm getting tired. I've got a test tomorrow that I haven't prepared for yet. Do you think we can go pretty soon?
L:對(duì),這兒的人都挺好。怎么啦,你累了,想走了?我知道, 你還沒(méi)準(zhǔn)備好明天的測(cè)驗(yàn)。確實(shí),我也有點(diǎn)累了。咱們隨時(shí)都可能走。
M:Okay, let's roll!
L:什么? Let's roll? 滾回去啊?
M:Oh no, "let's roll" here means "let's leave!"
L:To roll也能表示要離開(kāi)?
M:Yes, if you're doing one thing, you can say "to roll" when you want to start something new.
L:等等,讓我看看我是不是懂你的意思了。要是你在做一件事,過(guò)了一會(huì)兒,你不想連續(xù)做下去,而是想做別的事了,這時(shí)你就能夠說(shuō)to roll。
M:That's correct.
L:怪不得上次開(kāi)舞會(huì)的時(shí)候,咱們班上的那個(gè)高個(gè)子George 對(duì)他的女朋友說(shuō):Let's roll! 后來(lái)我聽(tīng)說(shuō)他們?nèi)タ措娪傲恕.?dāng)時(shí)我還聽(tīng)不懂let's roll是什么意思。
M:"Let's roll" is very popular, especially among young people. Well, Li Hua, I really do think it's time to roll.
L:好吧。不過(guò),剛才跟我談話的那個(gè)人告訴我,一會(huì)兒有一位名歌手會(huì)來(lái)唱歌。Michael,等他唱完一首歌再走,英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)網(wǎng)站,好不好?
M :A hit singer will be coming? I'd like to stay, but I really have to prepare for my test.
L:那好吧!
M+L:Let's roll!
