Morning!I am Juliet. Nice to meet you through network. Hope we could spend a wonderful morning together. An hour in the morning is worth two hours in the evening.
一天之计在于晨,若您有个美好的晨间生活,相信您一天的生活都是美好的,您的内心会由此生发快乐之感的。A hard beginning makes a good ending. 常言道:善始善终。
【温故知新】
Last time we learned "You have got to come clean with me." which is used to ask somebody to tell the truth when lying.
1 你得和他说实话。
You are gonna come clean with her.
2 你要做的就是说实话,提供协助。
What you need is to come clean and cooperation.
3 我知道是谁做的,你得和我说实话。
I know who did this. So, you might as well come clean with me.
下面的几道附加翻译题都是关于浪漫的“约会”的,我们就来看看“浪漫约会”中您可以说些什么话儿。
1 约会时你喜欢谈论什么?
What do you like to talk about when on a date?
2 当单身男女最后相见时,他们在约会时都做些什么呢?
When single people finally get together, what do they do on a date?
【点评】这一句get together 和 on a date 同意,在一句话中同样的意思使用不同的短语来表达,让读者看起来不厌烦。
3 他约她出去过一回,可是他们好像不大合得来。
He took her out on a date but they didn't really hit it off.
【点评】take somebody out on a date这个短语中take somebody out这个短语“把某人带出来”再加上介词短语on a date来表示“某人主动约某人出去过(谈恋爱)”,hit it off 是个精彩的短语了,意思是:一拍即合。
4 没有一个女孩子喜欢跟罗杰约会,因为他是个吝啬鬼。
None of the girls like to go on a date with Roger because he is a cheap skate.
【点评】go on a date with somebody这个短语中的go 加上介词短语on a date表示出“去幽会”“赴约”。A cheap skate这是个精彩的俚语,it means "somebody is mean".
5 那也没什麽。反正她们也没有人会跟我出来约会!
That's no big thing. None of them would go on a date with me anyway!
【点评】That's no big thing. "No big thing" means " It doesn't matter." 不碍事儿。还可以说“no big deal”.
