地道英語:徹夜未眠
Havent slept a wink
Neil: (Yawning) Welcome to Authentic Real English with me - a very tired Neil - and Feifei.
Feifei: (Yawning) 大家好!我是馮菲菲。歡迎收聽今天這期睡意滿滿的《地道英語》節(jié)目。
Neil: Oh, Feifei, Im so tired!
Feifei: Me too. The kids?
Neil: Ah, they kept me awake all night. As soon as one of them went back to sleep, the other one started screaming. Whats your excuse?
Feifei: A mosquito.
Neil: A mosquito?
Feifei: Yes, there was a mosquito in my room. Every time I turned the light off and tried to go to sleep I heard buzzing in my ear. 昨天晚上睡覺的時(shí)候,我房間里進(jìn)了只蚊子,我一關(guān)燈,它就出來嗡嗡翁,搞的我都快要瘋了。I havent slept a wink.
Neil: And I havent slept a wink either! A wink is when you close and open one of your eyes very quickly once - usually to show friendliness or that you are having a joke with someone. Its also a verb - to wink .
Feifei: A wink 眨眼,一眨眼間。To wink 向誰擠眼,眨眼。 如果我們說 I havent slept a wink 意思就是我眼睛都沒合一下,徹夜未眠。這個(gè)表達(dá)比較夸張。
Neil: Here are some examples:
A: You look terrible! Whats the matter?
B: I havent slept a wink. It was a really bad idea to move to a flat next to a pub.
A: How about a trip to the cinema tonight?
B: Sorry I cant. I havent slept a wink. There were cats outside fighting all night.
Neil: So, we can use I havent slept a wink to say that we are very tired because we havent had much sleep. I cant wait to get home tonight and just jump into bed (Yawns) I dont know how Im going to get through the rest of this programme, let alone the rest of the work day.
Feifei: (Yawns) Me neither.
Neil: Nice and quiet in here, isnt it?
Feifei: And dark.
Neil: Do you think anyone would notice if we just
Feifei: Thats a great idea! Ill just put these two chairs together.
Neil: And Ill rest my head on this desk and (snoring)
(Sound of babies screaming and mosquitos buzzing)
Neil: Argh theres nowhere to escape!
Feifei: Argh!
Neil: Kids! Mosquitos! Urgh!
