今天我們來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)這個(gè)俚語(yǔ)表達(dá):
opener是指開瓶器,一般開瓶器打開的是酒瓶,那eye-opener是指眼睛的開瓶器嗎?當(dāng)然它是說(shuō)的比喻意義,是指開啟人的眼界和視野,用中文表達(dá)就是“大開眼界”。
來(lái)看看這倆個(gè)句子:
As a Chinese saying goes, "seeing is believing" . This trip has been a real eye-opener, to me! 中國(guó)話說(shuō)“眼見(jiàn)為實(shí)”。這次旅行對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)確實(shí)開闊了眼界。
I knew he was strong, but it was an eye-opener to me when I saw him lift thattable. 我知道他很強(qiáng)壯,但當(dāng)我看到他舉起那張桌子時(shí),真令我大開眼界。
