09 Apr 2024

Description

光阴如箭白驹过隙时间对每一个人都一视同仁 稍纵即逝并且一去不复返我们都需要面对时间的残酷与吝啬不过face time可不是让你直面时间珍惜时间来看看真正的意思吧01“face time”是什么意思?我们先来看英文词典的解释:the time spent dealing with someone else face to face, especially in a place of work即:与他人面对面打交道的时间,尤指在工作场所所以face time = 会面时间;露面时间例:As clerical loads increased, something had to give up, and that was always face time with patients. 随着文书工作量的增加,有些事情不得不放弃,而这通常是和病人面对面的交流时间。02“face the music”是什么意思?face the music的词典解释:to meet an unpleasant situation, a danger, or the consequences of one's actions即:去面对不愉快的情况、危险或某个行为的后果face the music可以理解为:① 面对现实,直面困难; ② 接受批评(或惩罚)这个短语来源于剧场。演员们在舞台上表演时,经常会由于紧张或怯场而造成忘词等尴尬的局面,但只要音乐一响,演员就没有任何选择的余地,只能勇敢去面对。后来face the music便被用来指承担自己行为的后果。例:Sooner or later, I'm going to face the music. 我迟早要承担后果。03“long face”是什么意思?中文里我们常说“拉着个脸,哭丧着脸”英语里有对应的表达:pull / have a long face 显出不喜欢或不高兴的样子long face = 表情悲伤的;哭丧脸的例:A: Lydia, why do you have such a long face? Lydia你为什么哭丧着脸?B:My boyfriend doesn't want to see me any more.我男朋友不想再见到我了。04“have egg on one's face ”是什么意思?脸上被扔了鸡蛋用来形容:(某人)丢脸,(某人)出丑类似的表达还有:a slap in the face 打脸,侮辱,打击例:I was completely wrong, and now I have egg on my face. 我完全错了,被打脸了。
