| 释义 | 1． 注意与人体名称搭配后的意思: The captain woke the crew up in the morning by telling them to show a leg. ( show a leg 起床) How can they hope to re-elect a president who can't even show his face in his own commercials? ( show one's face 露脸) The President has enough wis- dom to know when to show his hand. ( show one's hand 表明想法) My client will never show his teeth! ( show one's teeth 恫吓) 2． 表示“驱逐某人”时，用 show sb the door 和 show sb to the door 都可以，但用前者居多: The Democrats want to show him the door. 民主党人想让他滚蛋。 If he still refuses to change，you can show him to the door. 如果他仍然拒绝改变，那么你可以让他滚蛋。 3． 但是，show sb to the door 可以有褒义，表示“送某人到门口”等; show sb the door 没有这层意思: I showed him to the door and kissed him good-bye. 我把他送到门口，吻别了他。 4． a show of hands 是“举手 ( 表决)”的意思: They chose their leader by a show of hands. 5． 中文里的“作秀”是直译英语中的 make a show，可以说: make a show of strength make a show of force make a show of affection make a show of bad temper make a show of appreciation make a show of security make a show of intelligence make a show of patriotism make a show of support make a show of thanks make a show of gratitude make a show of weakness make a show of good faith make a show of women power make a show of consensus make a show of wealth make a show of enthusiasm make a show of desperation make a show of beauty make a show of unity make a show of muscle make a show of spirit make a show of solidarity make a show of peace make a show of reconciliation make a show of confidence make a show of skills make a show of talent make a show of unlimited possibil- ities |
