雅思口语对中国考生来说是个考试难点,运用一些地道的口语表达可以大大的帮助我们提高分数,那么今天新东方在线雅思就为大家带来系列雅思地道口语表达,来本文看看吧。

1.Get bigger fish to fry

和下厨房一点关系都没有,实际上他的意思是说他有更要紧的事情需要处理。

举个例子:I know you’re upset that we’re not going away on

holiday this year, but we’ve got bigger fish to fry - I think I' m going to lose my job.

2.A hot potato

表示烫手山芋,棘手的问题。

You should adopt another solution to deal with this hot potato.

3.Lend meyour ear

请听我说的意思啦

Could you lend meyour ear for a minute? I need to talk with youabout something.

4.Jump out of one's skin

当你说一个人jump out of one's skin,那可能有两种意思:也许是表示他极度惊讶,也可能是说他给吓得魂不附体了。

举个例子: When it started to rain, l ran toward a big tree for shelter.

But there was a flash of lightning and l jumped right out of my skin -

- the lightning hit thetree just before l reached it.

5. Under the gun

就是一个人为了在限定的时间内完成一项任务,或者是解决一个问题而受到很大的压力,几乎就好像有人拿着枪逼着他把事情干完一样。你最近有under the gun的感受吗?

6.All bark and no bite

指虚张声势,动口不动手嗅。

The new managerthreatened me again, but l know he won't do it.

He's all bark and no bite.

7. Live under a rock

指“与世隔绝”。

What?You don't know Lady Gaga ? She's the most famous pop

singer in the world! Have you been living undera rock?

8. A bad egg

对于缺乏道德的人,你就可以说a bad egg啦~

9.Cost an arm and a leg

就是价格极其昂贵的意思

because it costs an arm and a leg.

10.Bob’s your uncle

lt means sth will happen very quickly and simply.表示“什么都对;万事大吉”。比如教朋友做菜时你可以说?Add some salt and Bob is your uncle.(加点盐就都OK啦)。

11. Break a leg

绝对不是“把腿打断”噢,是“祝你演出成功”的意思~随着时间的推移,它的语义范围逐渐扩大,除了演出,也可用于祝福某人试镜/考试/面试成功,相当于“good luck”如:Break a leg in yourtest today.(祝你今天考试顺利)
