  Call on

  Explanation:

  釋義

  Jacob: Hey, did you see that the President called on the wealthy countries for financial aid after the floods destroyed much of the country's agriculture?

  Jacob: 嘿,你知道嗎?洪水毀壞了很多糧食,總統(tǒng)尋求富裕國(guó)家提供財(cái)物支持。

  Pete: Called on? What does that mean?

  Pete:“call on”是什么意思?

  Jacob: Oh, called on means a lot of things. But in my sentence it means that the president asked for help.

  Jacob: 嗯,它有好幾個(gè)意思。但是在我剛說的那個(gè)句子里的意思是總統(tǒng)請(qǐng)求援助。

  Pete: Okay. I never knew that. So what other things does the phrase “call on” mean?

  Pete:好,我都不知道有那個(gè)意思。那“call on”的別的意思呢?

  Jacob: It can also mean that you are visiting someone. Like in “Since we were in the area, I paid a call on my sister in law”.

  Jacob: 也可以指你去拜訪別人,“我們?cè)谀莾浩陂g,去拜訪了我的弟妹。”

  Pete: “call on”能不能指要求某人去做某事,尤其是公開要求?“我呼吁政黨承擔(dān)起應(yīng)負(fù)的責(zé)任。”
