Havent slept a wink Neil: (Yawning) Welcome to Authentic Real English with me - a very tired Neil - and Feifei. Feifei: (Yawning) 大家好!我是冯菲菲。欢迎收听今天这期睡意满满的《地道英语》节目。 Neil: Oh, Feifei, Im so tired! Feifei: Me too. The kids? Neil: Ah, they kept me awake all night. As soon as one of them went back to sleep, the other one started screaming. Whats your excuse? Feifei: A mosquito. Neil: A mosquito? Feifei: Yes, there was a mosquito in my room. Every time I turned the light off and tried to go to sleep I heard buzzing in my ear. 昨天晚上睡觉的时候,我房间里进了只蚊子,我一关灯,它就出来嗡嗡翁,搞的我都快要疯了。I havent slept a wink. Neil: And I havent slept a wink either! A wink is when you close and open one of your eyes very quickly once - usually to show friendliness or that you are having a joke with someone. Its also a verb - to wink . Feifei: A wink 眨眼,一眨眼间。To wink 向谁挤眼,眨眼。 如果我们说 I havent slept a wink 意思就是我眼睛都没合一下,彻夜未眠。这个表达比较夸张。 Neil: Here are some examples: A: You look terrible! Whats the matter? |
