讲解


一般情况下,我们把turn on理解为“打开(煤气、自来水、电灯等)”。


相反,turn off是“关(自来水、电灯、收音机等)”。但在这里,turn on是俚语(slang),指的是a person or a thing that excites or stinlulatcs sb.,especially sexually;something that causes plcasure or cxcitenlcnt,即兴奋、刺激、令人愉快或兴奋的东西,使感到兴趣,使兴奋激动,特别是引起性欲的人或事物。


也有人把turn-on说成“What's hot”,turn-on是你非常喜欢的东西或人。列如,如果你说:
“The real turn-on is that he is handsome as well as nlanly,He is such a turn-on.”那就表示你对他有兴趣。


turn-off的意思则是:使沮丧,使不感兴趣,就是让你倒胃口的东西。列如:She is such a turn-off.就表示你对她是毫无兴趣。又如:That n]ovoie was a turn-off.(那部电影真是让我倒胃口。)


这里想指出另外两个较常用的关于turn的词组,即turn up和turn dowr。


turn up:①把声音开大,把音量加大。例如:
I couldn't hear what is going on in the radio.Could you turn it up a little bit?
(我听不清收音机里在说什么。你能把音量调大一些吗?)

②出现;来临;露面;相当于show up或appear。假如一个人打了一辈子的光棍儿,那么我们可以说:The bachelor has waited patiently for his Mrs.Right to turn up all through his life in vain.(这个单身汉徒劳地花费了一生的时间耐心地等待他的另一半的出现。)


lurn down:①扭小音量,灯火等。假如你半夜自我陶醉地放着狂放的蹦的音乐,你妈妈保准会说:It is unbearably noisy.Turn the volume down at once!(吵死了。马上把音量开小一些!)


②拒绝考虑,否决,推翻(提案等)。例如:
He proposed to Jane but she turned him down.
(他向珍妮求婚,但她拒绝了他。)


至于wanna,它是want to的缩写式(contraction),表示“想要,希望”等意思。又如gonna表示“将要”,它是going to的缩写式;gotta表示“必须”,它是have got to的缩写式。此外,ain't在口语中通常是am not,are not,is not,has not和have not的缩略语。但是有些人认为使用ain't是文盲的标志,这一印象短时间内还没有可能消除。但是一些受过教育的人也使用这个词,例如当他们想达到滑稽或通俗的效果时,会用一些表达,如:
Ain't it funny?
It aln’t so.
There ain't so much to say now betwcen us.


这些缩略语在口语中非常popular,在英语口语中运用这些词,不仅会使你的英文听起来很fluent,而且会多多少少为你的口语增加些许地道色彩。


而what’s up?是比较in(流行的)的问候语。此外,问候他人我们还可以说:what are you up to?
What is the deal?
What's new?
How's it going?
How is everything?
Are you alright,buddy / dude/maate?
Haven't seen you for ages.
Long time no see.
How's lifc?/How has been treating you?
How are you getting on with your work?
How are you(doing)?
How do you do?
I've heard(have been to1d)a 1ot about you.
Hi,there.
Hi,Va.
Hello.
Fancy meeting you here.
Nice/glad/pleased to meet you.
