英语初级口语对话:In my face

线话英语|2015-05-08 15:20:40

  礼拜天,迈克跟李华约在一道到户外市场去买东西。他们很自然地聊起前一天各自做了些什么事。迈克说他星期六始终在工作。英语初级口语对话 开始聊起来:

  L: 我真难以相信你星期六还得上班,我以为你是星期一到星期五上班呢。

  M: Usually, I do only have to work from Monday through Friday. But my supervisor has really been in my face about getting this project done. I needed to get it done by Monday, so I decided to come in over the weekend.

 

  L: 我懂得,你是说你的领导始终在逼着你做完你的工作。可是你是怎么说的? In my face? 那是什么意思啊?

  M: To say that my supervisor was "in my face" means that he has been giving me a lot of pressure about finishing the project. Just imagine someone who is standing close to your face, demanding that you finish something.

  L: 要是你说某人是in your face的话,听起来可不是什么好事。像是他一直地在提醒你该做什么事。看来你的引导是个很难处的人啊。

  M: Actually, he is not that bad. I really like him as a person. He is just very demanding when it comes to finishing work on time. He has an "in your face" personality.

  L:这样说来,你也可能说某人有"in your face"的个性呐。(注意这个英语初级口语对话中的实用哦)

  M: Yes, that means they have a very aggressive, direct personality. Someone like that usually doesn't care what other people think about their ideas.

 

  L: 这样形容一个人的个性,听起来不太尊敬。

  M: You're right, it's not a very nice thing to say about someone. You probably shouldn't tell someone directly that you think they have been in your face about something.

  L: 谈到"in my face",大太阳正照在我脸上,可真把我晒得够呛,咱们到里边儿去找个阴凉地方吧。

  M: Okay, how about getting some ice cream? There's an ice cream store right over there.

  L: 好主意,咱们走吧。
