【摩登家庭】“他把那辆车保养得特别好。”

【句子】Can I see the card? Mint condition. 【Modern Family S03E10】 【发音】/kæn/ /aɪ/ /siː/ /ðə/ /kɑː(r)d/ /mɪnt/ /kənˈdɪʃ.ən/【发音技巧】Can I连读；Mint condition失去爆破；【翻译】我能看看那卡片吗？保存得真完好。【适用场合】 今天很巧，我们要学的这个短语，新概念视频直播课程里我们也学过。这个短语叫in mint condition，大家不要一看到mint只能联想到“薄荷”；If you say that something is in mint condition, you mean that it is in perfect condition.或者看看这个英文解释：in brand new or pristine condition, with no evidence of use or wear如果你用in mint condition来描述某个东西，就表达这个东西处在一个很好的状态，是“崭新的、完美的、无污损的、保存完好的、无使用痕迹的”；那有同学可能会说，为什么要用mint这个词呢？mint其实当动词有“铸币、制造钱币”的意思；最近马斯克的Twitter上就有出现这样的一个用法：... Twitter would be minting money.Twitter就会赚很多钱了。（仿佛自己铸币、印钞一样）所以in mint condition据说这个表达来源于一些收藏硬币的爱好者，当描述这个硬币保存状态很好，就像新铸的一样。后来这个表达也用于描述别的东西了，慢慢沿用开来。eg: He kept the car in mint condition.他把那辆车保养得特别好。eg: The painting was in mint condition.这幅画完好无损/被保护得很好。eg: You can find bargain books in mint condition at rummage sales.你可以在清仓义卖会上找到那些很划算且保存完好的书。eg: It is so rare to see this model car in mint condition like this—you've really done an outstanding job of taking care of it throughout the years.这个汽车模型保护得这么好，这么新，很少见啊。这些年你肯定花了很多心思爱护它保护它。eg: My brother made a lot of money selling vintage baseball cards that were in mint condition.我哥哥通过售卖保存完好老式的棒球卡，赚了很多钱。eg: This is a fine car. It runs well and is in mint condition. 这车很不错，运行良好，车况也很好。eg: We saw a house in mint condition and decided to buy it.我们看到了一个保养得很好的房子，决定买下它。eg: The books were 30 years old but they were in mint condition. 这些书都有30年的历史了，但依旧保存非常完好。【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】My bicycle isn’t exactly in mint condition so I really can’t ask much for it.
