用英語「懂」英語:I'm on cloud nine什麼意思?
我們是用中文「懂」英語on cloud nine,還是訓練自己用英語「懂」英語on cloud nine呢?
我傾向於訓練後者:它讓我們「說」英語,「用」英語。
1) What does it really mean?
1.Are you pleased about getting that job?
Pleased? I was on cloud nine!
2.After Jane accepted his offer of marriage(proposal),Jack was on cloud nine.
3.Ever since I got my promotion at work(such as from a clerk to an assistant manager), I've been on cloud nine. I haven't ever seen myself happier!
我們能「說」出英語be on cloud nine的英語,與其它學過的英語發生關聯,並用學過的英語理解這句話,英語訓練才算達到目的。
2) Okay.I got you.
1.Okay.I got you.If someone is on cloud nine, they are extremely happy because something very good has happened to them.
2.Okay.I got you.Be on cloud nine means be extremely happy.
3.So,if I want to say I'm very very happy,I can say I'm on cloud nine I'm on top of the world.I cannot be happier.
4.I was on cloud nine=very very,extremely happy when I recovered my lost smart phone.
也就是說,我們應該養成「努力」去想「學過那些英語同義詞?」,讓學過的英語「復現」,就是「學以致用」。光想它的中文達不到訓練效果。
