Steven英语笔记:点滴积累have second thought about sth
have second thought about sth---对某事再作考虑,再想想。。。
上次Steven外出采访结束后,正好经过襄阳路,想来好久没有买衣服了,于是,进去兜了兜,哪知道自己根本没无法抵挡款式的林林总总和服装店老板的口若悬河。加上,价钱便宜,也没多想就买了下来。回到家里,才发现这不是我的尺码。自己又没有时间去换,看来只能直接送给表弟穿了。相信做在电脑前的你也不乏类似的经历吧。
所以,凡事“三思而行”,确实要铭记在心。Think thrice before you act.
下次,在买衣服的时候,不要忘记多说几句:“让我再想想”,先跟老板搪塞一下。那这“让我再想想、考虑考虑”用英语怎么说呢?
[情景对话]
这天Steven和Arnold一起去超市,看到了一款非常棒的CD机,于是,购买欲又在Arnold的心中蠢蠢欲动。。。
(我们听听他们是怎么说的。)
Arnold: Doesn't it look cute?
Steven: It does. You don't want to buy it, do you?
Arnold: But I love it so much.
Steven: I just want to remind you that you already have two.
Arnold: Ok, that makes sense. Let me have second thought about this.
Have second thought about sth/doing sth再考虑考虑,你记住了吗?
