小明英语课堂第一季视频 第7课:勃然大怒

?

教案：

This word is "blow", and the slangs are "blow a fuse" and "blow your mind"

这个单词是“blow”，今天的俚语是“blow a fuse”和”blow your mind”

"Blow" in these cases is to explode

“Blow”在这里的意思是爆炸

The slang "blow a fuse" in Chinese means勃然大怒

“Blow a fuse”的中文意思是勃然大怒

You might recognize "blow a fuse" as a term describing short-circuiting of some kind

你可能会觉得是一个描述电路短路的词

because of the word “fuse”

因为”fuse”

But it doesn’t mean that kind of fuse

不过它不是那个意思

It’s the kind of fuse you attach to a bomb or a dynamite

它的意思是炸弹上的导火索

It can be used in the following ways:

它可以这样用:

Don’t blow a fuse, Sally. Or Sally totally blew a fuse last night

萨利，不要发怒。或者，萨利昨天晚上发怒了

The meaning is just like the bomb.

意思就像炸弹一样

She lit her fuse and exploded. She got really really mad

她点燃了她的导火索，然后爆炸了。她非常的生气

So be careful when you are using this slang

你在使用”blow a fuse”的时候需要注意

because the phrase "blow a fuse"

如果你强迫或者不加思索的说出来

can come across as rude if said in a forceful or inconsiderate way

有可能是很不礼貌的

So think twice before you use it and make sure you say it as a joke

所以如果你要把它用在一个玩笑里的时候

Or when the person you are talking about isn’t listening

你需要去三思

To blow someone’s mind means that

“Blow someone’s mind”的意思是

something they are doing is really impressing or surprising you

某人做了使别人很印象深刻或者惊讶的事情

For example, if you ask someone how many digits of pi

如果你问一个人他知道Pi后面的多少位数

they knew and they recited over 100 numbers

然后他背了一百多位

you can say, "Wow it blew my mind how many numbers of pi you knew"

你可以说”你能背这么多位Pi的数值，真让我震撼”

You can also use this term

这个俚语也可以用在

if someone did something horrible and surprising that you did not expect them to do

当某人做了让你意想不到的糟糕的或惊讶的事情

If Johnny cheated on Shelly

如果约翰对雪莉出轨了

and you never thought Johnny would cheat on Shelly

你从来都没想过约翰会出轨

you can say "It blows my mind that Johnny would do something like that

你可以说“约翰做出这种事让我很震撼

I never thought he would cheat"

我觉得他不会去做。”

So again, "blowing your fuse" is being very angry and yelling at a bunch of people

所以，“blow your fuse”是非常愤怒

And "blowing someone’s mind" is surprising them”blow someone’s mine”

是让人惊讶

Our first example for today is

我们第一个例子是

"Because of its irritating effect on my skin, this moisturizer is something I no long use"

“因为它的刺激性，我再也不用这个保湿霜了”

Because of its effect on A, B is something I no longer use

因为A的作用，我再也不用B了

A is something that B has an effect on

A是一个受B影响的某物

and if you don’t like what B does to A, you don’t want to use A anymore

如果你不喜欢B对A的影响，你不想再用A了

One last example for you

最后一个例子是

"Because of its uncomfortable key placement

“因为这个键盘的键排列的不是很舒适

this keyboard is something I no longer use"

我再也不想用了”

Why don’t you try making a sentence?

你也来试试吧

Again, because of its effect on A, B is something I no longer use

因为B对A的影响，我再也不想用B了

And of course you can change "I" to anyone else’s name

当然，你也可以把I换成任何一个人的名字

我觉得这是一个不错的练听力的办法

it’s not the best way to learn new words

但是不是学新单词最好的方式
