大家身邊有沒有那種特別記仇的人呢?
可能以前你們之間發生過一些不愉快,
ta就一直懷恨在心,
對你也充滿了敵意。

Every picture tells a story其實我覺得產生了矛盾,最好能夠大家都敞開心扉把話說清楚,沒必要一直記恨著。如果是我遇到這樣的人,我會問ta:
You don't still have a chip on your shoulder, do you?
你不會還耿耿於懷吧?
大家可能會好奇,chip on shoulder是什麼意思呢?今天我們就一起來學習這個非常有趣的表達。chip有晶片、薯片等意思,shoulder是肩膀,連起來是「肩膀上的晶片」嗎?
chip on shoulder,which means being angry because of something that happened in the past,holding a grudge or grievance.
表示因為過去發生的一些事情還是很生氣,懷恨在心。An attitude that leads one to become combative or easily angered.這一種不太好的態度,會讓人容易發火、具有攻擊性。
He has a chip on his shoulder for not being invited to the party.
沒被邀請參加派對,他對此耿耿於懷。
It means to seem angry all the time because you think you have been treated unfairly or feel you are not as good as other people,表示當你覺得自己沒有受到公平對待或者被區別對待時,表現出的氣憤。
He's got a chip on his shoulder about not having been to university.
他對沒去上大學的事懷恨在心。
/He has a chip on his shoulder about not getting admission into that university.
沒被那所大學錄取,他如鯁在喉。
有的人,從小可能就缺失了父母的關愛,或者從小生活環境特別不好,這樣的孩子在成長的過程中如果得不到正確積極的引導,很可能會在他們幼小的心靈上留下一些不好的影響。
He was not very cared for as a child, and he has a chip on his shoulder about his upbringing.
他小時候沒有怎麼得到過關愛,所以他對自己的成長經歷有些陰影。
She still seems to have a chip on her shoulder about the argument she had with her friend last week.
她對上周跟朋友爭吵的事還記恨在心。
What’s the origin of this phrase?
This phrase originated in the USA in the 1800s. It refers to a practice where people who were looking for a physical fight would place a chip of wood on their shoulders, challenging others to knock it off.
這個短語源自19世紀的美國,那個時候,人們打架之前會在肩膀上放一個木塊,挑釁對方把這個木塊給打下來。那如果對方把木塊給打下來了,是不是就意味著打輸了呢,所以也就耿耿於懷了。

《you belong with me(Taylor Swift)》
(可上下滑動查看)
You're on the phone with your girlfriend she's upset
She's going off about something that you said
'Cuz she doesn't get your humor like I do
I'm in the room
It's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
And she'll never know your story like I do
But she wears short skirts
I wear T-shirts
She's cheer captain
And I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up
And find that what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
You belong with me
Walking in the streets with you and your worn-out jeans
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on a park bench thinking to myself
Hey isn't this easy
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say you're fine
I know you better then that
Hey whatcha doing with a girl like that
She wears high heels
I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain and
I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know Baby
You belong with me
You belong with me
Oh I remember you drivin' to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh
When you know you're about to cry
And i know your favorite songs
And you tell me about your dreams
Think I know where you belong
Think I know it's with me
Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along
So why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time
How could you not know
Baby you belong with me
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong with me
