☀☪★暮光之城详细英语口语学习笔记★☪☀

【18】口语词组 keep up
这是一个很常用的词组,表示跟上信息更新的速度。这里爱德华对贝拉说keep up的意思是说就算你来这儿的原因很复杂,我也有兴趣洗耳恭听。
其它意思:不间断地做某事;保持联络

【19】背景知识:metaphase
metaphase是生物学的专有名词,是指细胞分裂的中期。这个段落里贝拉和爱德华的生物课上在做观察细胞分裂阶段的实验,出现了一组关于细胞分裂的专有名词,包括:
Mitosis细胞分裂;Preprophase早前期;Prophase前期;Prometaphase前中期;Metaphase中期;Anaphase中后期;Telophase后期。


【20】背景知识:minor league baseball
在美国,棒球是一项十分受欢迎的运动,专业的联盟比赛叫做大联盟,也就是Major League Baseball;相对级别低一些的就是Minor league baseball了。


【21】俚语解释:figure you out
figure out有发现、决定的意思,也可以表示解决了问题,但显然在这边不是这么解释。figure sb. out在口语里面很常见,表示了解某人、理解某人,或者揣测某人的心理。
这边爱德华是对贝拉说:你实在让人捉摸不透。

【22】口语词组:get contacts
get contacts就是戴隐形眼镜。生活中戴隐形眼镜的同学不少,但是这个词要怎么说是不是不知道呢?不要说成wear invisible glasses哦~~囧

【23】背景知识:fluorescents
fluorescents是指荧光灯,爱德华的意思是说因为光照不同,造成了他眼睛瞳孔的颜色大不一样。
