今天的内容是:The walls have ears.
wall, 名词,墙,墙壁。have,动词, 有。ear, 名词,耳朵,这里是复数,ears.
The walls have ears. 墙上有耳朵。这是用来比喻: 我们在说话的时候,隔壁有人偷听,
一般偷听的时候都是将耳朵紧紧贴在墙上,才能听得真切。这些耳朵呢,就像长在墙上的一样。
所以就用The walls have ears.来形容隔墙有耳。
我们最好把声音压低一点,隔墙有耳:
We’d better keep our voice down. The walls have ears.
(We’d better是we had better的缩写, had better do something是最好做某事儿的意思,had不用任何变化。Keep our voice down,就是把我们的声音压低。)
小心你说的话,因为隔墙有耳:
Be careful of what you say, for the walls have ears.
(词组be careful of sb or sth表示小心。For这个介词在这里表示原因,和because一样的用法。)
别说太大声,隔墙有耳:
Don’t speak too loud. The walls have ears.
