各位亲爱的听众朋友,欢迎来到Juliet的《原味美语》课堂。Juliet将带您体验美国哈弗,美国纽约大学的口语课堂内容。Let's go! 今天,我们首先还是来回顾一下Tim和Jack的窃窃私语:

Jack: Hey! That girl over there is checking you out! Why don't you go say hello?

Tim: The last time I said hello to a girl in a place like this, she thought I was coming on to her and blew me off before I had a chance to introduce myself.

Tim说到的blew me off是什么意思呢?今天,我们就来学习这个“原味美语”表述:blow somebody off,blew是动词blow的过去式。

Blow sb. off有很多意思。在这里,Tim表达的意思是:to neglect or ignore someone,译为:不理睬某人,忽视忽略某人。例如:

I walked up to that girl to say hello but she blew me off. (我走到那个女孩身边打招呼,可是她却不理我。)

Blow somebody off除了“不理睬”的意思之外,还可以表示“to end a romantic relationship with somebody”,译为:结束与某人的恋爱关系。例如:

I thought she loved me, but he blew me off for Barbara. (我以为他喜欢我,可以他喜欢Barbara,而拒绝了我。)

PS:要表示“结束和某人的恋爱关系而和另外一人有恋爱关系”,在短语的后面用介词for,即:blow sb. off for...

Blow sb. off 还可以表示“to deliberately not meet sb. when you said you would ”,译为:(故意)失约。例如:

I had a date with Jenny this evening, however, I waited two hours in the cafe and she just blew me off. (我今晚和Jenny约会,但是我在咖啡厅里等了2个小时,她还是没来。)

In addition,Juliet提醒大家blow sb. off作为“忽略忽视某人,不理睬某人”的意思时是非书面正式用语,那么用标准英语如何说这句话:She thought I was coming on to her and blew me off before I had a chance to introduce myself. 我们可以用ignore来进行替换,即:She thought I was coming on to her and ignore me before I had a chance to introduce myself.

All right,大家现在知道Tim为何不愿意去和那位女生打招呼的原因了吗?I think the reason is:Tim经历过挫折不想再遭受被女孩拒绝的心理上的伤痛,因为他曾经主动去和以为女生打招呼,可是却被女生想歪了,想到他要吃她的豆腐,这可不是君子干的事情。

By the way, Juliet would like to share my thoughts with all of you. In face, 我们在爱情上或多或少都会遭受到挫折而受伤,受伤太深会导致我们会不愿意再去start a new romantic relationship来进行自我保护。但是,我们还是要尽力走出这样的心理障碍,去到达幸福的生活彼岸!


我们今天的学习就到此结束,明天我们继续新的话题。Bye for now!
