2019-06-20来源:和谐英语

第一,迷你对话

A: You seem worried.

你看起来很担心。

B: Yeah. I'm worried about son. I have talked with him for hours, but I still couldn't make him see reasons. I's really pissed.

是的,我担心我的儿子。我和他谈了几个小时,但是我还是不能让他明白我的道理,我真是气死了。

A: Don't waste your time. He's grown up. He has his own ideas.

别浪费时间饿了。他已经成人了,他有他自己的主意。

B: But it is dangerous for him to do that.

但是他那么做有危险。

第二,地道表达

see reason

解词释义

See reason的字面意思是“看清了事物的原因,道理”,引申为“某人明白道理,接受劝告”。

拓展范例

E.g. My grandma is never going to see reason about her smoking—by her logic, she's already got one foot in the grave, so why should she give up something that she still enjoys?

祖母不会接受不吸烟的劝告。按她的逻辑看,她快要入土了,她为何还要放弃她喜爱的东西了。
