【句子】Reverend, if you don’t call her on that incredibly insensitive comment, I’m gonna lose it. 【Desperate Housewives S02E01】 【发音】/ˈrev.ər.ənd/ /ɪf/ /juː/ /dəʊnt/ /kɔːl/ /kɑːl/ /hɜːˈ(r)/ /ɒn/ /ɑːn/ /ðæt/ /ɪnˈkred.ɪ.bli/ /ɪnˈsent.sɪ.tɪv/ /ˈkɒm.ent/ /ˈkɑː.ment/ /aɪm/ /ˈgə.nə/ /ˈgɑː.nə/ /luːz/ /ɪt/ 【发音技巧】don’t call失去爆破；her on连读；that incredibly连读+闪音+不完全爆破；insensitive不完全爆破+闪音；lose it连读；【翻译】神父，您要是不对她刚才过分的言谈批评批评的话，我就要发火了。【适用场合】今天我们学习的短语是：call sb. on sth.其实放在一起的call on，我们在学习新概念课程中的时候，有讲过。call on sb.或者call upon sb.都可以指“拜访某个人”；visit sb.eg: We could call on my parents if we have time.如果我们有时间的话，我们可以去看望我爸妈。但是此时如果把顺序颠倒一下，意思有挺大区别；call sb. on sth.可以用来指：to confront one about one’s misdeeds or unpleasant behavior跟某个人对质，因为他做了一些错误或者不好的行为，甚至是犯罪了；或者：to tell someone that one has noticed that he or she has done something wrong告诉某个人自己已经意识到他/她做了错事；eg: If your intern keeps coming in late, you need to call her on it.如果你的实习生一直迟到的话，你得说说她了。eg: When I called her on her bad behavior, she apologized and said that it would not happen again.当我针对她的不好的行为批评她的时候，她道歉了并保证以后不会再发生了。当然了这个短语在日常生活中还有别的意思，比如说“挑战某个人，觉得某个人说的不是事实”to challenge someone on the truth or accuracy of something that has been saideg: When the magician boasted that he could juggle blindfolded, we called him on it, and he was forced to admit he was lying.那个魔术师吹牛说他可以蒙着眼睛耍戏法，我们都质疑他能否真的做到，结果他不得不承认自己之前是在撒谎。今天节目中我们要来学***二个短语叫做lose it，是一个非常口语化的表达：这个我们之前节目中讲过，也出现过不止一次。之前我们在讲解Modern FamilyS2E15的时候，第774期节目中讲过这个短语；其实lose it如果使用在描述情绪的场合，基本就等同于：lose control“情绪失控，尤其是指发火或者难过；”to lose control of one’s emotions, especially by becoming angry or upseteg: I'd been trying so hard to stay calm but in the end I just lost it.我试图努力保持冷静，但是最终还是没忍住。eg: I completely lost it. I was shouting and swearing.我当时完全失控了，我又喊又骂。这个lose it 在口语中还有别的用法和意思，可以大家继续下去做做功课。【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】当我看到飞机失事的消息，我情绪完全失控了。
