欢迎大家来到文国英语每日习语,今天我们要学习一个短语“the last straw 忍无可忍”
先看一段小对话来开始我们今天的学习吧!
A:That was the laststraw!
B:Why did you say that? Did your girlfriend do anything wrong?
A:She refused to see me. She must have fallen in love with another guy.
B:I don’t believe it. Talk with her, will you? There must be some misunderstanding between you.
甲:真是让人忍无可忍!
乙:你为什么这么说?你女朋友做什么错事了吗?
甲:她拒绝见我,她一定是爱上别人了。
乙:我不相信。和她谈谈,好吗?你们之间一定是发生什么误会了。
“The last straw ”忍无可忍,其中last 最后的, straw 稻草, 麦管。从字面意义上看意思是“最后的稻草”。其实这个短语的意思是:终于使人无法忍受的最后一击, 导火线。也可以解释为“忍无可忍”。就像上文所说的那样男孩对女孩的拒绝而忍无可忍! 学会了吗?一起来看几个例句吧!
举一反三:
It was the last straw that my girlfriend refused to see me!
我女朋友拒绝见我,对此我忍无可忍!
when I find out you are spending money on another woman, that's the last straw!
当我发现你把钱化在另一个女人身上的时候,这就使我无法忍受了。
when I caught him using my toothbrush that was the last straw, so I kicked him out!
当我发现他用我的牙刷的时候,这就叫我无法忍受了。
