Notes
follow [ˈfɒləʊ] v. ①追随 ②理解，明白
1. 对应汉语中的“理解”“明白”“看得懂”
Can you follow the plot so far? 目前为止的剧情你能看得懂吗？
2. follow up (on sth/ sb) 将…深入下去；追查，完美破解汉语中的“接着”“跟进”
You have to remember to follow up on it. 一定要记住跟进这个事。
money [ˈmʌni] n. 钱
1. put (your) money on sth 确信，对应汉语中的“十分确定”“深信不疑”
He'll be there tonight. I'd put money on it. 我十分肯定他今晚会在那儿。
2. get/ have your money's worth 值得花，对应汉语中的“花得值”“买的值”“值回票价”
At least I got my money's worth. 至少这钱我花得值。
作业
我的答案：
1.这个东西我们买得不值，一天就坏了！
英文: I didn't get my money's worth, for it was broken just for one day!
分析：（was broken是被动语态，但句子中是主动，应该用it broke，此外注意一天就坏了，broke是短暂性动词，不用段时间）
2.你肯定会被提拔，我敢打赌。（不用sure/ certain/ bet)
英文: You will be promoted, I put my money on it.
分析：没有用 I would put，而是 I put，个人认为表示的是一种虚拟，与现实相反，would do
3.我不太明白他刚才在说什么。（不用understand）
英文: I don't follow what he said just now.
分析：用过去进行时更加立体，句子更生动。
参考答案：
1. 这个东西我们买得不值，一天就坏了！
We didn't get our money's worth out of it — it broke in a day!
2. 你肯定会被提拔，我敢打赌。（不用sure/certain/ bet)
You will be promoted — I'd put money on it.
3. 我不太明白他刚才在说什么。（不用understand）
I didn’t quite follow what he was saying.
