字號:

1) Time to knock off!
    NOTE:注意to的弱讀,knock off的連讀。
    2) We'd better get a move on!
    NOTE:注意get a的連讀,還有move on的連讀。
    「世博VOA」洗耳恭聽,兩個句子小菜一碟!
    ANDY: Time to knock off!
    GARY: Oh, yeah. We can go home now. You know we have been so busy for the whole day. I can't imagine why our boss keeps us working all the time!
    ANDY: shh, be careful, the walls have ears! Even you want to complain about your work, you can't shout aloud here. Someone will hear it!
    GARY: I don't care much about it! We have the rights to speak, to discuss and to complain.
    ANDY: Ok, I know you are the bravest one in our company, but we'd better get a move on, or else we would be late for the bus.
    在上面一個對話里面,Andy提出來已經(jīng)到了knock off的時間,我們可以回家休息了。既然是回家休息,那么knock off很明顯是停止做某事,所以Time to knock off就表示該下班了!接下來他們談到了公司的老板,Gary不明白為什么老板會一直讓他們忙個不停!而且顯示出抱怨的語氣,這個時候Andy提醒他不要說了,還是抓緊時間趕我們的公共汽車吧!We'd better get a move on.我們抓緊時間!
    1) Time to knock off! 該下班了!
    2) We'd better get a move on! 我們抓緊時間!
    「請你猜猜看」挑戰(zhàn)自我,情景搶答也刺激!
    Here are three situations:
    S1. Today, a movie called Hero will be showed in the Bohai Cinema. It will begin at 7 p.m. Now is about half past six. Do you want to go with me? If so, please……
    S2. Suppose there is a lazybone in your company. That is to say, he has never come to work before 8 a.m. and he would stop working right at 6 p.m. So what would he say when it is about 6 p.m?
    S3. Wow, it is about 8 o'clock. Let's be quick, otherwise we would be late for the class and the teacher surely will be angry again. Here, what is the other way to say "Let's be quick"?
