今日课题:
各位亲爱的朋友们,欢迎来到早间课堂《抛招接招》小节目,我是Juliet。
I will lick my chops when I know there is a new ballet drama season. And then, I would like to know what can makes you lick your chops? I think you get something new in my programme. Right? 好,我们就一起走进今天的2个句子,让您得到让您垂涎三尺的东西。
例句-1:The roast duck that restaurant serves is my favourite dish. Every time I think about it , it make my mouth water.
我最喜欢吃那家餐馆的烤鸭,每当我想起它就会流口水。
例句-2:The sight of the food one the table made their mouths water.
他们一看到桌上的食物就垂涎三尺。
在我们刚才听到的2个例句中,我们都可以听到同一个词语:make one's mouth water。短语中的water做动词用,意思是浇水,那么make one's mouth water就是“使某人的嘴巴流口水”,亦即“令......垂涎三尺”的意思。
我们在来看2个例句。
Eg.Sichuan dishes in China with a special strong taste make people's mouth water.
中国四川莱有一种强烈的特殊口味,令人垂涎。
Eg.The grapes look very good and they make the fox's mouth water.
葡萄看起来很诱人,连狐狸都流口水了。
今天我们学到的新招说“吃”—— make your mouth water,意思是让某人垂涎三尺,让某人直流口水。
那么我们关于“吃”的话题的招儿在今天就全部讲完了,我们来盘点一下:make a pig of oneself,eat like a hod,eat like a bird,eat like a horse,be/go off one's oats,be/go off one's food,lick one's chops,make one's mouth water。
我们下期的节目就将转入我们这个世界上美好而永恒的主题——爱。我们下期再见吧。
