Lesson 54 Sticky fingers
100%
After breakfast, I sent the children to school and then I went to the shops.
吃过早饭后,我送孩子们去上学,然后自己去了商店。
send the children to school 表示“送孩子上学”;then 连接连续动作。
It was still early when I returned home.
我回到家时,时间还很早。
when I returned home 是时间状语从句;still early 说明后文做饭有充足时间。
The children were at school, my husband was at work and the house was quiet.
孩子们在学校,丈夫在上班,屋子里安安静静的。
三个并列分句一起交代背景;quiet 为后文“突然被打断”作铺垫。
So I decided to make some meat pies.
于是我决定做一些肉馅饼。
decide to do 是常见决定表达;meat pies 是本文生活场景关键词。
In a short time I was busy mixing butter and flour and my hands were soon covered with sticky pastry.
不一会儿我就忙着拌黄油和面粉了,很快双手就沾满了黏糊糊的面团。
be busy doing 表示“忙于做……”;be covered with... 表示“沾满……”;sticky pastry 点题。
At exactly that moment, the telephone rang.
偏偏就在那个时候,电话铃响了。
At exactly that moment 表示“恰恰在那一刻”;制造第一次打断。
Nothing could have been more annoying.
没有什么比这更烦人的了。
could have been more annoying 是否定加比较级,表示最高程度“最烦人”。
I picked up the receiver between two sticky fingers and was dismayed when I recognized the voice of Helen Bates.
我只好用两根沾着面团的手指夹起话筒,等听出是海伦·贝茨的声音时,简直泄气极了。
pick up the receiver 表示“拿起电话”;between two sticky fingers 突出狼狈;recognize the voice of... 表示“听出……的声音”。
It took me ten minutes to persuade her to ring back later.
我花了十分钟才说服她等会儿再打来。
It takes/took sb. time to do 是固定句型;persuade sb. to do 表示“说服某人做某事”。
At last I hung up the receiver.
最后我总算把电话挂上了。
hang up the receiver 表示“挂断电话”;At last 呼应前面的长时间周旋。
What a mess!
真是一团糟!
What a + 名词! 是感叹句结构。
There was pastry on my fingers, on the telephone, and on the doorknobs.
我的手指上、电话机上,还有门把手上,全都沾上了面团。
There was...on...on...and on... 是并列列举,强化混乱效果。
I had no sooner got back to the kitchen than the doorbell rang loud enough to wake the dead.
我刚回到厨房,门铃就响了起来,响得简直足以把死人都吵醒。
had no sooner...than... 表示“刚……就……”;loud enough to wake the dead 是夸张表达。
This time it was the postman and he wanted me to sign for a registered letter!
这一次来的是邮递员,他还要我签收一封挂号信!
sign for... 表示“签收……”;registered letter 是“挂号信”,构成第二次打断。
