Hello! Everyone! 歡迎光臨廣播學口語,今天我們要談談玩得樂趣。玩耍幾乎是每一個人的天性。但玩也要玩出一個花樣呀??纯次覀兘裉煲獙W習的句子:(1)He can play it by ear and handles everything in order.(2)He is only playing at his job.
(音樂)
"play it by ear" 是一個很重要的短語。最初是說大鋼琴家會即興演湊一段“仙樂”, 根本不用看樂譜。"play it by ear",就是只用耳朵,不用看樂譜。如果做事兒也擺 脫了樂譜,那么意思就是“隨機應變”。
Andy所以在商業一往無敵,源于他的思維敏捷。He can play it by ear and handles everything in order. No wonder he can succeed in business. (他能隨機應變,所以他把一切事物處理的井井有條。怪不得他會在商業上取得成功。) Andy的業績節節高升。但同事John卻屢屢受到批評。這次John又被老板叫進了辦公室。 同事們都跟John說:“Be careful, and play it by ear .(小心點,
你這家伙。要隨機應變呀)好漢不吃眼前虧嘛!
(音樂)
其實大家不用擔心。要是John沒有兩把刷子早就被老板趕回家了。老板之所以這樣寵他, Because he is only playing at his job. play his job.是說玩他的工作嗎,好像不 是吧。其實是指"應付了事"的意思。He is only playing at his job. play his job 這句話是說"他對工作只是應付了事,不認真"而已。
John is only playing at his job in the company, for he is much more interested in being a racing driver.(John對于公司的工作沒有興趣。他想當一名賽車手)。也 難怪老板要找他談話呢。
其實John也很不開心,因為他對公司的工作根本就不感興趣。于是他最終離開了公司。 拎著背包去尋找夢想了。有朋友對他說你這樣做太不負責任了,是應付人生。But John said :"I am not playing at it this time; that is my dream of my whole life."(但是John說這次我可以沒有應付了事,因為這是我一生的夢想。)
(音樂)
讓我祝福有夢想的人們早成功吧。來回顧一下我們今天的內容:
(1)He can play it by ear and handles everything in order.他能隨機應變,所以做事井井有條。
(2)He is only playing at his job.他應付了事。
OK! See you!
