Andy is so lucky that I can make this program with the help of one of my students. Now she has given me the following materials and I have changed some mistakes in it. I hope you can enjoy it!今天这杯清爽的茶水是我的学生和我共同奉献的,Hope you like it!
1)She wouldn t have been my cup of tea. 她不是我的意中人。
Andy is handsome and capable and very popular with people around him.朋友们认为他如此的优秀,以至于不得不替他担心一件事。Andy is almost thirty, but he doesn t have a girlfriend yet! Is he too busy? 哦,看来我的学生比较理解我,知道我比较忙!So they decided to do me a favour.
One day, one of my students showed me a photo of a b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l girl and talked to me about her all the time. Blah, blah, blah……Andy 终于忍受不了了,非常抱歉的说:“She wouldn t have been my cup of tea."什么意思呢?她不是我那杯茶吗?想一想,是不是有什么深层的含义呢?tea 是茶的意思。not my cup of tea大概是不和我 的口味吧。啊 ! 对了。确切的应该翻译成” 她不会是我的意中人“。这是美国的地道说法。
2)Let s bag it for now. 先放一放吧!
相当于:Forget about it!
看来ANDY是一个以事业为重的人了。虽然他深知朋友们的苦心,但不得不恳求他的朋友:“Let s bag it for now." 当然我们不能翻译成用袋子装起来。Would it be better if we put it this way? 翻译成”让我们现在先把它放一放“是不是更确切一点儿呢?
Here is an example:
If you have a plan, but it is not so suitable to carry it out at present, you may say, let s bag it. Anyhow, when you have made your plan that is good for you, you have to stick to it!
OK ,let s stop here. Andy hopes that if you are in a bad mood and don t want to do your assignment, you can "bag it". So finally, remember these two useful sentences:
1 he wouldn t have been my cup of tea.
2 Let s bag it for now!
See you next time ! g-o-o-d b-y-e!
