[1]can you break a bill?你能打開這張錢嗎?break在這里可不是打碎的意思。另一種換零錢的方法是Can you make change?還有一個(gè)關(guān)于break的用法是give me a break.讓我喘口氣兒吧。也很常用。當(dāng)你正專心的想寫點(diǎn)什么東西時(shí),別人卻不停的打擾你,你就可以說這句話。[2]vending machine就是我們常說的自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)。有些機(jī)器只收硬幣[coin],有些也收紙幣[bill],用英語講就是Does this machine accept bills?這臺(tái)機(jī)器收紙幣嗎?
