CharIie的解释

故事梗概


在天台举办的“Days of Oun Gives ”剧组Panty上,Ross领来了他的新同事Chanlie,Ross在与Chanlie的交谈中才觉得自己与Chanlie之间的男友比真是相形见绌,觉得Chanlie要找的对象不会是像自己这样的平庸之辈。但出人意料的是,当Rachel找Joey,Ross找Chanlie表白的时候,却发现Joey跟Chanlie相拥在一起。第二天Chanlie找到Ross,为那晚的事情做解释……


Charlie: (talking to Ross) I feel like I owe you an explanation. I don't ordinarily go around kissing guys at parties. I'm... well, I'm kind of embarrassed. I really hope you don't think less of me.


Ross: Uhm no! Think less of you! No, I don't think less of you. I mean, you saw someone you liked and you kissed them. I mean, those people who like someone and don't kiss them... those-those people are stupid, I hate those people.


Charlie: You know, actually I'm a little surprised to myself. I mean, Joey is so different from the guys I usually date. I mean, they're all professors, and intellectuals, and paleontologists mostly, you know, very cerebral...


Ross: Yeah, I know the type.


讲解


think less of sb.源于think little of,意为“鄙视,看轻,看不起”。也可以说think poorly of。与其相对应的词组为think highly of/think much of/think a lot of sb.例如:


I can assure you,the management thinks very highly of you.
(我可以肯定地告诉你,管理层非常看重你。)


此外,think better of sb.也指对某人印象好,看重某人。而think betl er of sth.则指改变念头,打消主意。如:


·He started to say something,then thought better of it.
(他开口想说点什么,继而觉得还是不说为妙。)


词组think badly of sb.并不是指认为某人不好,而是指“不赞同某人,看不惯某人的所为”,例如:
·Please don't think badly of me。I had no choice.
(请不要怪我,我当时别无选择。)


think the best/worst of sb.指“认为某人尽善尽美或者十恶不赦”。英语中有许多以“think”开头结构相似的词组,如think the world of sb.指“非常喜爱某人”。


think on your feet意为“思路敏捷”,如:
·A good teacher can think on her feet.
(一名优秀的教师头脑灵活,能随机应变。)


think something to yourself的意思为“自己心里想着某事”,而“自言自语”则为think aloud/think out loud。英语中think twice(before doing sth.)则可在汉语中找到相对应的成语:三思而后行。
此外,think big为非正式的用法,意思为“打算大干一番,立大志”,例如:
·We had money,materials,and the opportunity to think big.
(我们有资金,有原料,也有大干一番的机会。)
