DIALOG 31
ADVICE
1--You're going to get into a lot of trouble if you do
that.
2--What makes you say that?
3--I don't see anything wrong with what we're doing.
1--That's just the problem. In these kinds of things
the trouble doesn't always appear at first.
2--But everything has been so easy!
3--Everything has gone as smooth as clockwork--
just like we planned.
1--That may be true. But I warn you. There's trouble
on the horizon.
3--You always say that!
2--Yeah. You never look at the positive side of things.
1--Okay. Have it your way, but don't say I didn't
warn you.
===================================
注解:
1)What makes you say that?
動(dòng)詞make之后的復(fù)合賓語(yǔ),不定式動(dòng)詞不帶to。
2)as smooth as clockwork:(成語(yǔ))象鐘表一樣平平穩(wěn)穩(wěn),
=easily。
3)on the horizon:直譯是“在地平線上”。
4)positive side:積極的一面。反義詞組是negative side
5)have it your way:(固定成語(yǔ),多用于停止?fàn)庌q時(shí))
隨你的便吧!
