溫馨提示:易賢網(wǎng)小編為您整理了“Right on the money 完全正確”,方便廣大網(wǎng)友查閱!

Larry(L)和李華(LH)一起去逛街,給Larry的朋友Tom買生日禮物。今天我們要學(xué)兩個常用語:right on the money和crapshoot。

LH: Larry, Tom平時有什么愛好啊?

L: Tom really enjoys sports, especially skiing. But he also loves video games too.

LH: 他喜歡滑雪和電子游戲?現(xiàn)在天氣這么熱,沒法帶他去滑雪……對了!我們給他買一個滑雪的電子游戲,這樣他在家里就能滑了!

L: You want to buy him a skiing video game? I think you're right on the money. Great idea!

LH: Right on the money? 什么意思?你讓我付錢買禮物嗎?

L: Actually, when you say that something is right on the money, that means it is exactly right.

LH: 哦,right on the money就是“完全正確”的意思。你是說,我提出給Tom買滑雪游戲是個特別好的主意,對不對?

L: Exactly. Here is another example. When Erica went to visit Karen she wasn't sure which apartment number was hers. Luckily her guess was right on the money.

LH: 我明白了。Erica不肯定Karen家的門牌號碼,可是她一猜就猜中了,這就叫right on the money.

L: Exactly! You're right on the money.

LH: 那可不!咱們?nèi)ル娖魃虉鲑I游戲吧!對了,那家店在哪兒來著?是在14街上么?

L: Yup, you're right on the money. There is a big electronics store there.

LH: 那我們怎么去呢?

L: There is a metro station nearby, so I think that will be the most convenient way.

LH: 對,附近是有地鐵。是地鐵的哪條線來著?綠線么?

L: Yup, you're right on the money again. It's the green line.

L: Larry, 這種滑雪游戲好像是新上市的,會不會很貴?。康?0塊錢吧?

LH: Wow Lihua, good guess! You're right on the money. The most popular skiing video game is $49.99.

L: 哈!我今天怎么猜什么都那么準啊!那我再猜猜,你買這個游戲給Tom, 其實是想和他一起玩兒吧?

LH: Actually, Lihua, you're right on the money!

******

Larry和李華正在商場的電子游戲區(qū)選游戲。

LH: Larry,這里至少有10種滑雪游戲!咱們買哪個啊?

L: Hmmm... I don't know. Maybe we could ask a store employee to recommend one.

LH: 找店員問?他肯定給你推薦最貴的,而且還不一定好!

L: I guess you're right. Since we don't have any idea which games are good, it's really just a crapshoot.

LH: A crapshoot? 什么意思?

L: A crapshoot is something that depends totally on luck.

LH: 哦,crapshoot就是完全靠運氣的事情。

L: Exactly. For example, becoming a movie star is extremely competitive. Even if you're a good actor, it's still mostly a crapshoot.

LH: 對,想成為電影明星很難,即使你有表演天賦,這也基本上是撞大運的事兒。

L: You got it.

LH: Larry,這里的游戲都好貴啊,要不咱們?nèi)e的店看看,也許有便宜點的?

L: Maybe, but there isn't any way to know which store would be cheaper. It would really be just a crapshoot.

LH: 這倒也是。對了,Tom家的游戲機是什么牌子的?。咳翁焯??索尼?還是X-Box?

L: Hmm... I have no idea.

LH: ?。磕悴恢琅谱?,那怎么買游戲啊。萬一型號對不上,就沒法玩兒啦。

L: Well, we will just have to guess. It will be a crapshoot, but he can always exchange it later.

LH: 那多麻煩。要不我們送給Tom一張購物券吧,讓他自己隨便買點什么。反正我們也不是很確定他會喜歡滑雪游戲。

L: Well, it's not a total crapshoot. We know he likes skiing and video games, so it's likely he will like this gift.

LH: 我說 Larry, 你對Tom的生日禮物可真上心啊!我猜,等到給我買生日禮物的時候,你一定會花更多的心思!

L: Of course, Lihua. You're right on the money!
