Day 20 忙碌的周一? | 简单7句教你如何用英语表达“忙得
被印度人叫魂一样的忙了一天,这大概就是每个周一的节奏。
工作lync一个印度学生不可怕,可怕的是5个印度人一起问你问题的时候。。
工作SKYPEShirley Shirley Shirley.... 我第一次觉得自己的英文名出镜率这么高。。
那么今天和我一起来学习几句实用口语如何表达忙碌的句子吧:)不然也许你只会说“I'm very busy"哈哈。
1:My hands are full now 忙得腾不开手
to be busy dealing with a lot of various issues or jobs .忙得不可开交
为了处理各种各样的问题,忙得两只手都没闲着,这个表达忙碌的说法还是挺形象的吧?
You must have your hands full with all this work to do and the part-time tourist.
你有这么多工作要做,还要再兼职导游,肯定是忙得脱不开身了。
I am so sorry that my hands are full now.
很抱歉我现在忙得都腾不开手了。
2:As busy as a bee/beaver : very busy 忙得团团转
忙碌的蜜蜂用As..as..句型来形容和勤劳的小蜜蜂一样忙碌,每天飞来飞去的繁忙。
He's been as busy as a bee since he got promoted.
他自从升职以后一直忙得要命。
Please wait a moment, I am as busy as a bee now.
请稍候,我现在忙得不可开交。
海狸这里的小蜜蜂理解起来不难,但是as busy as beaver, 海狸这种动物为什么用在这里呢?原来beaver除了海狸的意思外,还引申为卖力工作的人,兢兢业业的人.
所以二者可以互换,都表示忙忙碌碌的意思。
3:has/have a lot in one's plate: 盘子还有很多东西比喻还有很多未完成任务
恨不得三头六臂?Have enough, a lot, etc. on your plate: (informal) have enough, a lot of things, etc. to do or be responsible for 手头有太多的事要处理;问题(或工作等)成堆
在plate(盘子)中的可不只有食物喔,“on one's plate”在牛津词典中的解释为“occupying one's time or energy”,表示占用某人时间和能力,所以“have a lot on your plate”就是手头有很多事情要处理的意思啦。
例如:
She has a lot on her plate at the moment.
她此刻忙得不可开交。
4:have many irons on the fire 有很多事情要做
芒果啊哈哈哈很形象的说法,火上要铸很多的铁,能理解那堆积如山的任务吗?
I have many irons on the fire later so i can't reply you immediately.
我现在手头上有很多事所以无法及时回复你。
5:Be on the go 东奔西跑忙个不停
life on the go对这一句印象很深是因为初中有篇课文叫“life on the go"想象一下一直在东奔西跑的状态呢,可不是在忙个不停呀,看一下下面的例句是否说出了你的心声:
I've been on the go all the week and finally weekend is coming.
我这一周都个不停终于周末要来啦。
6: time to catch the breath 喘口气的功夫
catch my breathI don't even have time to catch my breath.I don't even have time to catch my breath.I don't even have time to catch my breath.
一直在忙着连喘口气的功夫都没有。真的好心累啊=。=
7:occupied 占用,忙碌的。厕所上被占用的标识还记得吗?
请不要停止你的表演七个句子里最简单也最容易记得一个,如果你想和别人表达自己的忙碌,可以说一句:
I'm so occupied now. May i contact you later?
我现在十分忙碌。能一会儿找你吗?
怎么样,你,学会了吗O(∩_∩)O
