美国习语：悲痛欲绝
<p> 今天我们要讲的一个习惯用语和吃，也就是<span word="eat">eat</span>这个字有关：<span word="to">to</span> <span word="eat">eat</span> <span word="ones">ones</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="out">out</span>。大家都知道，<span word="heart">heart</span>就是人的心。<span word="To">To</span> <span word="eat">eat</span> <span word="ones">ones</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="out">out</span>难道是吃人心吗?具体来说，<span word="to">to</span> <span word="eat">eat</span> <span word="ones">ones</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="out">out</span>不是这个意思。但是，从某种意义上来说也确实包含着这种含义。<span word="To">To</span> <span word="eat">eat</span> <span word="ones">ones</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="out">out</span>的真正意思是：非常沉痛和绝望的悲痛。下面的例子是一个朋友在告诉他的朋友关于家里发生的不幸的事：</p><p> 例句-1: <span word="Ever">Ever</span> <span word="since">since</span> <span word="grandmother">grandmother</span> <span word="died">died</span>, <span word="grandfather">grandfather</span> <span word="has">has</span> <span word="been">been</span> <span word="eating">eating</span> <span word="his">his</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="out">out</span>--<span word="hes">hes</span> <span word="lost">lost</span> <span word="all">all</span> <span word="interest">interest</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="life">life</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="wont">wont</span> <span word="even">even</span> <span word="get">get</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="bed">bed</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="eat">eat</span>.</p><p> 这个人说：自从祖母去世后，祖父非常伤心，他对生活失去了一切兴趣，都不愿意起床吃饭。</p><p> <span word="To">To</span> <span word="eat">eat</span> <span word="ones">ones</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="out">out</span>还可以用在另一种场合，也就是半开玩笑地让别人对你产生妒忌。你听了下面这个例子就会明白它的意思了。这是一个大学生在对他的要好朋友说话：</p><p> 例句-2: <span word="Hey">Hey</span>, <span word="Pete">Pete</span>, <span word="you">you</span> <span word="know">know</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="girl">girl</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="physics">physics</span> <span word="class">class</span> <span word="you">you</span> <span word="like">like</span> <span word="so">so</span> <span word="much">much</span>, <span word="the">the</span> <span word="one">one</span> <span word="who">who</span> <span word="wont">wont</span> <span word="pay">pay</span> <span word="any">any</span> <span word="attention">attention</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="you">you</span>? <span word="Well">Well</span>, <span word="eat">eat</span> <span word="your">your</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="out">out</span>, <span word="buddy">buddy</span>--<span word="Im">Im</span> <span word="taking">taking</span> <span word="her">her</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="dinner">dinner</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="movie">movie</span> <span word="Saturday">Saturday</span> <span word="night">night</span>.</p><p> 他说：喂，彼得，你知道那个和我们一起上物理课的女孩吗?那个你非常喜欢，但是她从来也没注意过你的女孩?这下好了，你去伤心去吧，我星期六请她出去吃晚饭、看电影!</p>
