【句子】Thank you. That’s just a huge weight off my shoulders. 【Desperate Housewives S02E01】 【发音】/θæŋk/ /juː/ /ðæts/ /dʒʌst/ /ə/ /hjuːdʒ/ /weɪt/ /ɒf/ /ɑːf/ /maɪ/ /ˈʃəʊl.də(r)z/【发音技巧】just a连读；weight off连读+闪音；【翻译】谢谢，那真是让我如释重负。【适用场合】今天来学习一个表达：be a weight off one’s shoulders，我们来看看英文解释：to be a relief after having shared what one is thinking or feeling with others或者来看这条英文解释：It is used to say that you are glad that you do not have to worry about something any longer.其实就是“如释重负、心里的一块石头落了地，肩上的担子卸了下来”这样的意思；那这里的weight，其实可以理解成：a great responsibility or worry“一个很重的责任”或者“担忧、担心”;那这样的短语我们之前节目中也讲过，当时在第498期节目中我们讲过了，take a load off或者take a load off one’s mind都可以用来指“在心理上，如释重负，卸下心里沉重的负担”这样的意思；然后今天我们学到的这个短语be a weight off one’s shoulders，末尾也可以换成mind，所以：be a weight off one’s mind，也是近似的意思；稍作总结，以下表达都是近义表达：take a load offtake a load off one’s mindbe a weight off one’s mindbe a weight off one’s shoulders也欢迎各位同学在留言区补充近义表达。下面我们来看一些简单的例句：eg: Finally telling the truth was a great weight off my shoulders.最后，我终于说出了真相，让我如释重负。eg: The news was certainly a weight off my mind.(= I did not have to worry about it anymore.) 那个消息真的是让我如释重负。那个消息真的是让我心头一块石头落地了。（我再也不用担心/操心那件事情了。）eg: Talking over my problem with my close friend was a weight off my shoulders.我把我的难题跟我的好朋友说了说，现在我把心里的一块大石头放下了（不再担心那事情了）。eg: Finally paying off my debts was a great weight off my shoulders.我终于把我的债还清了，这真是让我大大松了一口气。【尝试翻译以下句子，并留言在文章留言区】I finally completed my tax return for this year.
