【句子】My house is a mess and I’ve got millions of errands to run. 【Desperate Housewives S1E18】【发音】/maɪ/ /haʊs/ /ɪz/ /ə/ /mes/ /ænd/ /aɪv/ /gɒt/ /gɑːt/ /ˈmɪl.jənz/ /əv/ /ˈer.əndz/ /tʊ/ /rʌn/【发音技巧】house is a两处连读;and I’ve连读;got millions of 不完全失去爆破+连读;【翻译】我家里一团乱,我还有好多好多事情没处理。【适用场合】今天学两个表达首先,mess在这里的用法,其实是指a dirty or untidy state又脏又乱的状态;eg: The room was in a mess.这个房间一团乱。eg: My hair’s a real mess!我的头发真的是乱糟糟的。eg: The kids made a mess in the bathroom.孩子们把浴室弄得乱糟糟的。今天我们要来学习的第二个表达,就是关键句当中出现的run errands这个在口语中特别常见,表示跑腿;出门办个事;英语解释是:make a short trip to complete a specific task or chore同样地,你也可以说do an errand或者go on an errand都可以;eg: I've been running errands all day.我跑来跑去办事忙了一整天。eg: I've got to run an errand.我有事儿得出去一下。eg: He has gone on an errand. He'll be back shortly.他出门办事儿了,很快回来。eg: I'll meet you at six, I've got some errands to run first.我六点见你,我还有点事儿要办。【尝试翻译以下句子,并留言在文章留言区】 她经常替她老板出门办事。
