from Odie的英语课
139 复习autumn leaves / fall leaves 秋叶 I heard the rustle of the autumn leaves. 我听见了秋天树叶的沙沙声。leaf 除了树叶,还有“书页”的意思,今天要学的俚语表达是“效仿(某人),以(某人)为榜样”take a leaf out of someone's booktake ... out of 从……取出(拿出)……book 书 从某人的书里拿出一页 —> 模仿某人,向某人学习,以某人为例也可以换个介词,out of —> fromtake a leaf from someone's book两个表达意思一样,只是介词不同,take ... out of 和 take ... from 都是“从……取出……”的意思。先读一下词组take a leaf out of someone's booktake a leaf from someone's book看一个简单的例句:I took a leaf out of their book.我模仿他们。/ 我照着他们的样子做。* 注意,是 their book,book 是单数形式。(类似上节课的 trees in full leaf)请跟我读I took a leaf out of their book.可以把their book换成其他人称代词,her book,his book,等。再来一句复杂一些的例句:I decided to take a leaf out of his book and invest some money in the stock market.前半句: I decided to take a leaf out of his bookdecide to 决定(做)后半句: invest some money in the stock marketinvest 动词,投资stock market 股票市场我决定学着他,投资一下股票。请跟我读前半句 I decided to take a leaf out of his book后半句 invest some money in the stock market连在一起 I decided to take a leaf out of his book and invest some money in the stock market.来一句轻松的~如果你看同事太拼命工作(work hard),想让ta像你一样,轻松点,就可以说:You're working too hard. Take a leaf from my book and relax!你工作太拼了。学学我,放轻松!请跟我读You're working too hard. Take a leaf from my book and relax!
