托福口语高级短语词汇积累



托福口语高级短语词汇积累

一、词汇confused积累

托福口语confused高级表达:Can’t think straight

不能直着想问题,言外之意就是无法冷静清晰地思考。和“懵圈儿”有异曲同工之妙。

例:There are so many people talking. I just can't think straight.

托福口语confused高级表达:Be balled up

Ball是“球”的意思,用这个短语形容“混乱”、“搞得一团糟”也很形象。

例:That dame is so balled up. She doesn’t know anything.

托福口语confused高级表达:Be (as) clear as mud

清楚得像泥巴一样,这种比喻用来说明不清楚的程度也很形象。

例:The explanation was as clear as mud.

托福口语confused高级表达:At a loss

这个短语有种失去方向的意味,它的意思更侧重于不知何去何从的困惑。

例:I don't know what to do. I'm at a loss.

二、词汇pardon积累

托福口语pardon高级表达:Come again?

这句话跟中文“再来一遍”是不是很像?英文让别人再说一遍也可以这样讲,口语里也很常用。

例:Come again? I didn't quite hear you.

能再说一遍吗?我刚才没听清。

托福口语pardon高级表达:Can you run that by me again?

英文里有个词组是run sth by/past sb,意思是告诉某人某事,让对方考虑一下。不过,上面这个句子并不是让别人再考虑一下,而是需要对方再说一遍。

另外,英文里还有一个和run相关的句子,也是类似的含义。

例:Could you run through that again?

你能再说明/演示一遍吗?
