習語a taste of your own medicine的口語練習
作為具有高中水平的英語,對英語習語(give you/get)a taste of your own medicine是不會存在詞彙困難的,每個詞都(用中文)認得:(讓你/這下)嘗嘗你自己熬的苦藥。
然而,學習英語習語a taste of your own medicine不是為了說出中文,是為了「說出」英語,把英語用起來。這才是我們學習的重點,也是我們需要的英語能力訓練。
你能記住以下(高中)英語,並用它們來理解和記住英語習語(give sb./get)a taste of his own medicine嗎?
Well,when we say:Let's give the boy a taste of his own medicine,we mean:
1. Let's give him an experience of the same harmful or unpleasant thing that he has done on us.
2. Let's retaliate(報復/fight back) him in the same manner in which he has hurt us.
For example:
Their team likes to play rough(harmful thing), so let's go out there and give them a taste of their own medicine(we will play rough,too)!
不要求你全記,記得一點算一點(same harmful thing,same unpleasant thing是重點詞),好過你只記中文,那樣不會讓你產生英語語言環境和英語語感的。
或者,我們用下面的英語禮節和記住英語習語a taste of your own medicine吧,只要不用中文就行:
Well, a taste of his own medicine means:
1. tit for tat
2. a blow for a blow
3. a game at which two can play
4.an eye for an eye or
5. a tooth for a tooth
