南京朗阁讲师教您学口语 我们看个例子来体会talk of the town这个习惯用语的含义是什么。说话的人正打长途电话给一个搬到外地去住的老朋友,Pete。
Pete, want to hear the talk of the town these days? The president of bank ran away with a pretty young cashier and two million dollars of the bank's money. It's all people talk about. 所以他说的talk of the town一定是指闹得满城风雨的街谈巷议。 Talk of the town的话题是激起人们强烈兴趣或好奇心的事件,丑闻,或者桃色新闻,而且往往是流言蜚语。 (责任编辑:admin) |
