【标题】【口语】怒火冲天(2012-3-10 0:00:29)
【摘要】今天要讲的三个习惯用语都是和人的情绪有关，特别是愤怒的情绪。1. lose your cool 发火，大发雷霆lose就是失去的意思。cool通常做冷或者是凉解释。不过在这个习惯用语里它是冷静的意思。中文里面就有现存的相同的说法。那就是"失去冷静"。 试想一个人如果失去了冷静，岂不是在生气吗？lose your cool正是"大发雷霆"的意思。我们来看个例子。假定约翰在开车；正在等红灯。突然一辆车子从后面撞了上来。约翰下了车来，走到后面开车的人面前，指着他的鼻子大骂。例句-1：i am afraid i lose my cool. i call the other guy some nasty names and jumped out like he was ready to fight. but then a traffic cop arrived on the scene and managed to calm us down. and it turned out the damage wasn't all that bad。"愤怒"的情绪我当时失去了冷静，把那个家伙臭骂一顿。他也从车子里出来，好像准备动手。不过那个时候一位交通警到达了现场。他设法让我们的情绪都平静下来。后来我们发现车子的损害并没有多厉害。说到这里，还有一个习惯用语要在这里顺便提一提。那就是，blow your cool。 blow是吹的意思，但是blow your cool和lose your cool有着相同的含义。2. hopping mad 怒不可遏；狂怒hopping是跳的意思，mad是生气的意思。生气得跳了起来，不就是中文说的气得跳脚？或者是暴跳如雷吗？现在我们再看看这句话在英语里是怎么用的。保罗描述了昨天在他家里发生的事。例句-2：my mom and dad were hopping m...
