【句子】I wanted to chase after him. Mitchell kept a level head and called the police. 【Modern Family S03E05】 【发音】/aɪ/ /wɒntɪd/ /wɑːntɪd/ /tʊ/ /tʃeɪs/ /ˈæf.tə(r)/ /hɪm/ /ˈmɪtʃəl/ /kept/ /ə/ /ˈlev.əl/ /hed/ /ənd/ /kɔːld/ /kɑːld/ /ðə/ /pəˈliːs/【发音技巧】wanted to失去爆破;chase after连读;kept a连读;and called失去爆破;called the不完全爆破;【翻译】我想去追那个肇事逃逸的人,但是Mitchell很冷静地报了警。【适用场合】今天我们来学习一个很有趣的短语keep a level head,第一眼看到这个短语大家也许会奇怪,level head到底是个什么。来看看这个短语keep a level head对应的英文解释: to keep calm and think clearly in a difficult, stressful or troubling situation在有困难、压力或麻烦的情况下保持冷静的态度和清晰的思考为什么这个短语有这样的意思呢?因为level当做形容词理解,有“稳定的;明智的”这样的意思;eg: I know you’re anxious about this midterm exam, but just remember what we’ve gone over and try to keep a level head. 我知道你很担心这次期中考试(我知道你很为这次期中考试发愁),但是只要记住我们已经复习过的内容,尽量保持头脑冷静,就可以了。eg: You have to keep a level head during business negotiations or else you may end up getting the short end of the stick.在商务谈判中,你必须保持头脑冷静,否则你会吃亏的。eg: She managed to keep a level head when all the others panicked.当其他所有人都开始惊慌时,她成功地让自己冷静了下来。eg: She keeps a level head in an emergency.她在面对紧急事件时仍能保持淡定。这个短语还有一个对应的复合形容词,叫做level-headed,“头脑冷静的,思路清晰的”;eg: Nurses need to be level-headed.护士需要做到头脑冷静,思路清楚。【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】当你面临一个像这样的危险的境况的时候,保持冷静特别重要。
