原句:
Jenny, why didn't you come to school today?
珍妮 你今天怎么不来学校?
Shh. Daddy's taking a nap.
嘘 爸爸正在午睡。
讲解:
take a nap: 睡午觉,小睡一会儿。(=spin in)
take a nap与我们常说的have a rest意思可以通用,解释为休息一会儿。而take a nap比have a rest更强调了打盹儿这一层含义,rest则泛泛的指各种各样的休息。
例如:
1.I want to have a rest under the tree.
我想在树下休息一会儿。
2.Get in the back seat and take a nap while I drive.
我开车,你到后座去小睡一下。
