He threw me for a loop when he told me this.
当他告诉我这些时,我大吃一惊。3em中国英语学习网
今天我们要讲的短语是:to throw for a loop。Loop是圆圈的意思。To throw for a
loop是指"感到非常震惊"或者是"情绪很波动"。下面的例子是一个男朋友使得他的女朋友非常不高兴。这个女孩子说:
Bill told me he couldn't take me out last night because he had to study for a big exam. So it threw me for a loop when I saw him walking into the movie theater with that stupid girl who sits next to him in biology class.
比尔告诉我,他昨天晚上不能带我去玩,是因为他要准备大考。所以,当我看到他和那个生物课坐在他旁边的傻姑娘一起走进电影院的时候我真是大吃一惊。

A Family Rule
3em中国英语学习网
Mr. and Mrs. Jones very seldom go out in the evening, but last saturday, Mrs.
Jones said to her husband, "There is a good film at the cinema tonight. Can we go and see it?"
Mr. Jones was quite happy about it, so they went, and both of them enjoyed the film.
They came out of the cinema at 11 o'clock, got into their car and began driving home. It was quite dark. Then Mrs. Jones said, "Look, Bill. A woman's running along the road very fast, and a man's running after her. Can you see them?"
Mr. Jones said, "Yes, I can." He drove the car slowly near the woman and said to her, "Can we help you?"
"No, thank you," the woman said, but she did not stop running. "My husband and I always run home after the cinema, and the last one washes the dishes at home!"

琼斯夫妇晚上很少出门,但上星期六,琼斯太太对丈夫说:“电影院今晚有场好电影,我们去看好吗?”
琼斯先生很乐意,于是他们就去了。两个人都喜欢那部电影。
晚上十一点,他们从电影院出来,钻进汽车,开始驾车回家。天很黑。这时,琼斯太太说:“看,比尔。一个女人在沿街狂奔,一个男人在后猛追不舍。你看到了吗?”
琼斯先生说:“是的,看到了。”他慢慢把车开近那女人,说道:“你需要帮忙吗?”
“不,谢谢,”女人答道,但她没有放慢速度,“我丈夫跟我在看完电影后,经常跑步回家,后到家的洗碗涮碟。”

Enchantment Under the Sea[美丽的海底世界]
3em中国英语学习网
It's the largest living organism on Earth -- the only underwater creation big enough to be seen from outer space. You'd be crazy to miss the Great Barrier Reef.
The first morning I'm awakened by birds -- flocks of Hitchcockian proportions. But the air is filled not with threatening sea gulls but with hundreds of red, purple, blue and yellow parakeets and lorikeets, which are basically giant parakeets but more brilliantly plumed.
After daylight, we board a 400-passenger catamaran for the one-and-a-half-hour sail to Agincourt Reef, part of the Great Barrier Reef. There we board a motorboat with just three other passengers and a marine biologist. We head farther out to sea, to the very edge of the continental shelf.
With snorkel gear, including a thin nylon suit that protects from stinging jellyfish, we explore a different world beneath the sea. The numerous parrotfish we see increase their odds of living through a nap by excreting a mucus casing, like a sleeping bag, that disguises their fish smell. We see fish harems led by one male, and if the male dies or abandons the school, one of the females will replace him by turning into a male.
The Great Barrier Reef is home to 1,500 species of fish and 400 types of coral. I'll say no more about it -- you simply have to add it to your list. |

Your Body Is a Wonderland JohnMayer
We got the afternoon , You got this room for two
One thing I've left to do , Discover me , Discovering you 3em中国英语学习网
One mile to every inch of , Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and , Your bubblegum tongue
And if you want love , We'll make it , Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets , Take all your big plans , And break 'em
This is bound to be a while
Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland
Something 'bout the way your hair falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase
You tell me where to go and , Though I might leave to find it
I'll never let your head hit the bed , Without my hand behind it
you want love, We'll make it , Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets, Take all your big plans , And break 'em
This is bound to be a while
Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland
Damn baby , You frustrate me
I know you're mine all mine all mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes
Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland
