<p>美国习惯用语-第40讲:<span word="My">My</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="stood">stood</span> <span word="still">still</span></p><p><span word="heart">heart</span>-<span word="to">to</span>-<span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="talk">talk</span> </p><p>从科学的角度来看，人的心就是人体内输送血液的重要部份。但是，对我们大多数人来说，人的心要比这意义深远的多，它不仅是维持生命所不可缺少的一部份肌体，而且也是人的各种感情的源泉。今天我们再来讲两个和“心”，也就是英文里的 “<span word="heart">heart</span>”这个字有关的习惯用语。首先,我们要讲的是：<span word="My">My</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="stood">stood</span> <span word="still">still</span>。我们上面已经说过，“<span word="heart">heart</span>”就是心， <span word="stood">stood</span> 就是 <span word="stand">stand</span> 的过去时，意思是站着， <span word="still">still</span> 就是静止的、不动的。大家可能从字面上已经猜到 <span word="My">My</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="stood">stood</span> <span word="still">still</span> 的意思了。 <span word="My">My</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="stood">stood</span> <span word="still">still</span> 就是指某件事使你非常害怕，或惊恐，以致你的心脏都几乎停止跳动了。我们来举个例子吧： </p><p>例句-1: "<span word="My">My</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="stood">stood</span> <span word="still">still</span> <span word="when">when</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="other">other</span> <span word="car">car</span> <span word="ran">ran</span> <span word="through">through</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="red">red</span> <span word="light">light</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="I">I</span> <span word="knew">knew</span> <span word="we">we</span> <span word="were">were</span> <span word="about">about</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="crash">crash</span>." </p><p>这个人说：“当我看到那辆汽车穿红灯的时候，我知道我们要撞车了。我的心都好像停止跳动了。” </p><p>这种心情不仅会出现在自己处于危险的时候，在看到别人遭到危险的时候也同样会产生类似的情景。下面这个例子就能说明这一点： </p><p>例句-2: "<span word="I">I</span> <span word="have">have</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="tell">tell</span> <span word="you">you</span> <span word="my">my</span> <span word="heart">heart</span> <span word="stood">stood</span> <span word="still">still</span> <span word="when">when</span> <span word="I">I</span> <span word="saw">saw</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="baby">baby</span> <span word="fall">fall</span> <span word="into">into</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="water">water</span>. <span word="But">But</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="boy">boy</span> <span word="jumped">jumped</span> <span word="right">right</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="after">after</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="kid">kid</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="pulled">pulled</span> <span word="him">him</span> <span word="out">out</span> <span word="before">before</span> <span word="he">he</span> <span word="went">went</span> <span word="under">under</span> -- <span word="that">that</span> <span word="boy">boy</span> <span word="deserves">deserves</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="medal">medal</span>!" </p>
