    Subject:This really burns our boss up.
    迷你對(duì)話(huà)
    A: This really burns our boss up. He seems so angry.
    這件事情的確激怒了我們的老板,他看起來(lái)非常生氣。
    B: Yes. We should be careful from now on.
    嗯,從現(xiàn)在開(kāi)始,我們必須得小心行事。
    地道表達(dá)
    burn sb. up
    1. 地道表達(dá)
    Burn是“燃燒,燒著”的意思,burn up可以作為“燃起來(lái),旺起來(lái)”解,而burn sb up的字面意思是“把某人點(diǎn)燃了”,引申為“使得某人發(fā)怒”。給惹怒的對(duì)方的怒氣程度要比angry,mad這些詞語(yǔ)要強(qiáng)烈。
    2. 拓展例句
    e.g. That would just burn me up. Isn't that the worst, having somebody talk behind yourback?
    如果換我的話(huà),那簡(jiǎn)直會(huì)氣炸的。世界上難道還有比人家在您背后造謠生事還惡劣的事嗎?
    e.g. It's those little things left undone that would burn me up if I knew that my hours werelimited.
    假如我知道我的時(shí)間不多了,那些沒(méi)來(lái)得及做的小事會(huì)讓我惱火。
    Ps:from now on的意思是“從現(xiàn)在開(kāi)始”。例如:
    From now on you can work on your own.
    你從現(xiàn)在起可以獨(dú)立工作了。
    My teacher will be more strict with me from now on.
    從此我的老師會(huì)更加嚴(yán)格。
