前面我們學(xué)習(xí)了有關(guān)“bear”的兩個短語,下面我們不放趁熱打鐵一下,再學(xué)習(xí)兩個有關(guān)“at”的短語解析吧!優(yōu)朗英語的Kathy老師將繼續(xù)為大家講解“at this rate ”及“at the back of you mind”這兩個短語。
先來看,“at this rate ”這一詞組。
at this rate 指如果按照現(xiàn)在的情況繼續(xù)下去。
例句:
Progress has been very slow . At this rate , we won't be finished until the end of next year .
進(jìn)展一直非常緩慢。這樣下去的話,我們到明年年底才能完成。
At this rate , Mr and Mrs Smith will soon have to buy a bigger house .
這樣下去的話,史密斯夫婦不久就得買一座更大的房子了。
情景模擬:
Samantha is simply working too hard .
I know she stays up half the night and that isn't good for her .
At this rate , she'll make herself ill
下面是另一個詞組“at the back of you mind”。
at the back of you mind 指在心底里,下意識中。
例句:
There was still a small doubt at the back of my mind , but I did my best to ignore it .
我心底里仍存有一些疑慮,但我竭力不理它。
I've had this idea at the back of my mind for some time . Now is the time to try and get it down on paper .
這個想法在我心底里已有些日子,現(xiàn)在是時候?qū)懴聛砹?。
情景模擬:
