<p> 标题：美国习惯用语-第410 <span word="dead">dead</span> <span word="shot">shot</span>; <span word="spitting">spitting</span> <span word="image">image</span></p><p> 内容：</p><p> 今天我们要讲的两个习惯用语有同样的意思。</p><p> 它们都用来说某一个人非常像另一个人。</p><p> 第一个习惯用语是： <span word="dead">dead</span> <span word="ringer">ringer</span>。</p><p> <span word="Ringer">Ringer</span>原来意思就是酷似某人的人或者很像某物的东西. <span word="Ringer">Ringer</span>有时可以指冒名顶替某人去应考或者参赛的人，或者顶另一匹马上阵赛马的马匹，但是<span word="dead">dead</span>这个词用在这儿意思可决不是“死的，”而是“确切的、”“确实的、”“丝毫不差的。” 就好比<span word="dead">dead</span> <span word="right">right</span>这个短语解释“完全正确，” 里面的<span word="dead">dead</span>意思是“一丝不差，”而<span word="dead">dead</span> <span word="shot">shot</span>是神枪手，里面的<span word="dead">dead</span>用来说枪法百发百中的准确性。</p><p> 这样看来<span word="dead">dead</span> <span word="ringer">ringer</span>一定是用来说某人酷似另一个人；简直维妙维肖了。</p><p> <span word="Dead">Dead</span> <span word="ringer">ringer</span>既可以说人也可以说物。</p><p> 我们先听个说人的例子。</p><p> 它说的是美国一位喜剧明星在电视上表演模仿美国总统，几乎达到以假乱真的地步。</p><p> 例句-1：<span word="You">You</span> <span word="have">have</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="see">see</span> <span word="this">this</span> <span word="guy">guy</span>: <span word="he">he</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="amazing">amazing</span>. <span word="His">His</span> <span word="make">make</span>-<span word="up">up</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="so">so</span> <span word="good">good</span> <span word="he">he</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="dead">dead</span> <span word="ringer">ringer</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="Mr">Mr</span>. <span word="Clinton">Clinton</span>. <span word="In">In</span> <span word="fact">fact</span> <span word="I">I</span>'<span word="d">d</span> <span word="guess">guess</span> <span word="even">even</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="first">first</span> <span word="lady">lady</span> <span word="might">might</span> <span word="have">have</span> <span word="trouble">trouble</span> <span word="telling">telling</span> <span word="them">them</span> <span word="apart">apart</span>.他说：你真得去看看这个人的表演，他简直妙极了。</p><p> 他的化装几可乱真，看来跟克林顿维妙维肖。</p>
