  许昌雅思口语培训-许昌新航道雅思口语中你可能会用到的习语
  一:与时间相关的习语
  1.Put the clock back
  [字面意思]:把钟表指针向后拨。
  [实际意思]指行为或观念跟不上时代;按陈旧的规矩办事;老脑筋。
  E.g.:You must give university students more freedom.Don’t try to prevent them from falling in love before graduation.You can’t put the clock back!
  原来这样简单的词句,也能表达如此确切的意思!
  2.Work against the clock
  [字面意思]:与钟表的走动比赛。
  [实际意思]指的是抓紧时间工作,强调不停顿哦~
  E.g.:I have to work against the clock to finish my thesis before the holiday finishes.Otherwise my supervisor will not be happy with me.
  我们辛勤的烤鸭们还可以这样说哦:I have to work against the clock to pass the IELTS exam.哈哈,是不是很准确的表达了烤鸭考前的心情!
  3.Go like clockwork
  [字面意思]:像钟表的机械装置一样运转。
  [实际意思]指计划、安排、工程或项目等进展顺利,强调有条不紊,没有麻烦。它还有另一种说法:Run like clockwork.
  E.g.:The president is very happy that all our arrangements for the project are going like clockwork.And I am sure we can finish the project in time.
  如果part2的话题考到了future plan,something you saved money for这种和计划相关的话题,烤鸭们是可以把go like clockwork运用上去的,表达我们的计划按部就班,进展的非常顺利~
  4.After hours
  [字面意思]:钟点之后。
  [实际意思]在规定的下班时间以后,非营业时间。

  有木有童鞋理解成为了打印的时候要黑白打印呢?Anyway,以后童鞋们签订合同的时候不用愁啦!~直接说:I prefer to have our agreement in black and white.就ok啦~
  7.Out of the blue
  [字面意思]:来自蓝天;或出自大海。
  [实际意思]突然;没有料到。常跟动词come连用。
