【句子】But don’t let these negative nellies drag you down, Manny. 【ModernFamilyS3E09】 【发音】/bʌt/ /dəʊnt/ /let/ /ðiːz/ /ˈneg.ə.tɪv/ /ˈnel.iz/ /dræg/ /juː/ /daʊn/ /ˈmæni/【发音技巧】But don’t 失去爆破;don’t let不完全爆破;let these不完全爆破;negative闪音;【翻译】但是,不要让这些讨厌的人打击你,Manny。【适用场合】 今天我们学的英文短语,叫做drag somebody down。它的字面意思是:把某个人拖下来;我们来看看英文解释:to make sb. feel weak or unhappy “使得某个人处于劣势、使得某个人不高兴”;或者:to bring sb./sth. to a lower social or economic level, a lower standard of behaviour, etc.再比如看这条英文解释:to lower the quality, character, or value of something or someone:“打压某个人;降低某个人的身份或社会地位;使得某个东西的质量、价值下降、降低”;eg: If he fails, he'll drag us all down with him.如果他失败了的话,他会把我们都拖下水的。eg: If you’re not careful he’ll end up dragging you down with him.如果你不小心的话,他会把你拖下水的。eg: Don’t let yourself be dragged down to his level.别让你自己被拉低到他那个水准。eg: Dwelling on the past only drags you down.沉溺在过去,只会让你不开心。eg: Honestly, having to listen to you two fight all the time is really dragging me down.实话说,听你们俩一直吵吵闹闹的,真的让我烦死了。eg: Recent events have dragged prices down.最近发生的事情,使得价格下降。【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】His disruptions are dragging down the performance of the other students.
