第18课:慷慨大方的 - 19
【迷你小对话】
A: Tom was always such a boy scout when it came to helping people; he was always the first to help to the neighbors.
B: Funny you say that. I always saw him as a bleeding heart, one that couldn’t resist helping all the sick animals or pets.
A: Well, he was always a bit of a sucker for helping people or creatures.
A: Tom一向是个助人为乐的人,街坊邻居有人需要帮忙的时候,他总是第一个站出来。
B: 你这种说法倒是很有意思。我一直认为他是个心肠过软的人,是那种一看见生病的动物或宠物就不能不帮的人。
A: 嗯,他是有点太爱帮助人或动物了。
【语言点精讲】
boy scout: 童子军。这里指的是坚持高的道德标准,体贴、慷慨、宽厚的人。
bleeding heart: 心肠软的人。
resist doing sth.: 抵抗,忍住。
be a sucker for: 因为爱某类人或物而愿意不惜一切代价去取悦或拥有他(它)们。
