A bolt from the blue
bolt一词指的是霹雳,而 blue则指碧蓝的天空,英语词典一般将其解释为:some thing sudden and unexpected,也就是“突如其来、始料不及”的意思。
在日常口语会话中,人们也常用 out of来代替介词from。
eg:
We had been sure she was in chicago, so her sudden appearance was a bolt out of the blue。
我们大家都认定她现在在芝加哥,因此她的突然出现完全出乎我们的预料。
Miss anne has just got her salary raised,so her decision to resign was a bolt from the blue.
安妮小姐刚被提升了工资,所以她的辞职是我们始料不及的。
