Rat是鼠,老鼠。中文里有很多關(guān)于老鼠的成語(yǔ)。英文也有。比如說(shuō):"look like a drowned rat." 哎呀,今天下大雨,所以呢, "By the time I arrived at the office I looked like a drowned rat," 我到辦公室的時(shí)候,渾身濕透了。就像一只溺水的老鼠。還有一個(gè):smell a rat, 聞到了老鼠的味道?也就是說(shuō)雖然沒(méi)有實(shí)質(zhì)的證據(jù),可是讓人覺(jué)得有什么地方不對(duì)勁兒。"The deal sounds too good to be true. I smell a rat." 對(duì),如果有人把什么東西吹得天花亂墜,那你可要小心。
英語(yǔ)里還有和rat有關(guān)的詞組,比如, rat race, 競(jìng)爭(zhēng)非常激烈;頗有你死我活的味道;希望大家新的一年開(kāi)開(kāi)心心,"be careful of rat racing."
