露西的一天 第75期:銀行與市場講解(1)

Lucy says she left "work at exactly five o'clock," 露西說她“整五點就下班”離開了。

we might also say precisely at five o'clock - not 5:01, not 4:59, but five o'clock. 我們也可以說是正好五點，不是5:01，也不是4:59，而是五點。

Another way of expressing that is five o'clock on the dot, "dot." 另一種表達方式是五點準時，“點”。

On the dot means the same as exactly at that time. 點上的意思就是恰在那個時候。

So, Lucy leaves her work at "five o'clock because," she says, 所以，露西“在五點下班因為”，她說，

she wants "to make it to the bank before it closes at 5:30." 她想“在五點半銀行關門前到達那里。”

To make it, here, means to arrive at the bank. 要做到這一點，就意味著要到達銀行。

"I want to make it on time" - I want to be there on time. “我想準時到達”-我想準時到達那里。

She wants "to make it to the bank before it closes." 她想在銀行關門前趕到銀行。

The bank is where you keep your money, and you are able to get money from the bank. 銀行是你存錢的地方，你也可以從銀行里取錢。
