He appears decent but turns out to be a sycophant( 阿谀奉承者), always thinking about his next move to advance his political career. 【笔记】 这里的veteran actor就有老戏骨的意思。 veteran可以作名词,表示“经验丰富的人,老手”。 a 20-year veteran of the New York Police Department 在纽约警察署任职20年的老警察 veteran也有形容词的意思,表示“资深的,经验丰富的”。 She's also a veteran campaigner. 她还是一位经验丰富的活动家。 除了veteran,形容资历丰富的人还可以这么说▼ 【名词系列】 ①old-timer No old-timer will touch us. 我从来不吃老派那一套。 ②past master Joe is a past master at getting invitations to parties. 乔对弄到宴会请柬很有一手。 ③old hand |
