拓展：
提到「ball」，我們之前在英劇| 《公關》：罪犯和幫兇，誰更應該被批判？（中）講過「balls」的意思，在這裡複習一下：
①「勇氣」If you say that someone has balls, you mean that they have courage.
②如果單獨使用，可以表示「swearing words（罵人用語）」,和「shoot」有異曲同工之妙【You can say 'balls' or say that what someone says is balls when you think that it is stupid or wrong.】
這裡再拓展幾個常見的關於「ball」的短語：
我們在Day 115| 「唯利是圖的」英文怎麼表達？講過短語「play ball」合作【If someone refuses to play ball, they are unwilling to do what someone wants them to do.】
例如：
The association has threatened to withdraw its support if the banks and building societies refuse to play ball.
該協會威脅說如果銀行和建屋互助會不配合的話，它將不再提供支持。
②get/set/start the ball rolling 使某事發生；開始某種活動【If you get the ball rolling ,set the ball rolling, or start the ball rolling, you start something happening.】
例如：
I just want enough cash to start the ball rolling.
我只是想有足夠的啟動資金。
③have a ball 玩得開心；盡情歡樂【If you are having a ball, you are having a very enjoyable time.】
例如：
Outside the boys were sitting on the ground and, going by the gales of laughter, they were having a ball.
男孩們在戶外席地而坐，從陣陣笑聲來看，他們玩得很開心。
④on the ball 警覺；機警；留心 【If someone is on the ball, they are very alert and aware of what is happening.】
例如：
She really is on the ball; she's bought houses at auctions so she knows what she's doing.

例句：
Sometimes he would sneak out of his house late at night to be with me.

拓展：
恰巧前幾天看到一個詞「slink」，也有相同意思，表示「偷偷摸摸地走;悄悄走;溜走」【If you slink somewhere, you move there quietly because you do not want to be seen.】
例如：
He decided that he couldn't just slink away, so he went and sat next to his wife.

'Cause you were Romeo. I was a scarlet letter.
因為你就是羅密歐 我就是紅字中的女主 和你的感情不被認同
閱讀詞彙
中文釋義：
猩紅色;緋紅色;鮮紅色
英文釋義：
Something that is scarlet is bright red.
拓展：
這句歌詞中的「scarlet letter」其實是一本書，作者是納撒尼爾·霍桑，感興趣的小夥伴可以課後讀一讀，適合大一大二的同學，詞彙量要求還是比較高的。
講述的是北美殖民時期的戀愛悲劇。女主人公海絲特·白蘭嫁給了醫生奇靈渥斯，他們之間卻沒有愛情。在孤獨中白蘭與牧師丁梅斯代爾相戀並生下女兒珠兒。白蘭被當眾懲罰，戴上標誌「通姦」的紅色A字示眾。然而白蘭堅貞不屈，拒不說出孩子的父親。----摘自百度
因為scarlet letter是紅A字的意思，在英國古時候是被叛通姦者佩戴的標記，尤其這個故事是英國歷史悠久的羅密歐與朱麗葉，朱麗葉那時的處境也是這樣，本來已經和羅密歐秘密結婚了，可又被迫要再嫁他人，應該是因為你，我成了罪人，但因為你是我的全部，我不能沒有你。
