每日一句,大家可以直接跟帖回复同样的内容

每天一句英语,我都回把最新的放在最前面的,并且用红色标识,希望大家能积极的回复。


Our company doesn't have enough personnel.

我们公司人手不足。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Personnel指人员,全体人员(看下例)。All personnel meet at the meeting room.所有员工在会议室集合。personnel还指人事部,人事科。
例句:
You can contact the personnel for benefit information.
有关福利方面的情况你可和人事部联系。





I have been assigned to Class Eight.

我被分到了八班。


  上学时候的分班,工作时候的分组,这个由上向下地“分”,就要使用动词词组be assigned to。如果to后面跟sth,就是“向(某人)提供、把……分派给(某人)”的意思;如果to后面跟动词原形do,就是“(某人)被指派做某事”的意思。
  例句:
  The best engineers were assigned to the most difficult job.
  (他们)把最困难的工作分派给了最优秀的工程师


I'm not complaining, only making a point.

我并不是抱怨,只是表明一个看法。


  make a point,两个主要意义:阐明一个观点、发表看法;或得一分。这里是第一个意思。
  例句:
  Believe me! I have made a point! 相信我!我有了个点子
He dedicated most of his time to charity work.

他大部分时间都致力于慈善工作。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
dedicate表示把时间或精力等用在...,用在哪方面就用介词to。 dedicate的名词是 dedication,表示对某事的热诚和献身。
例:
Her dedication to education.她对教育的热诚付出。
He dedicated his life to science.他献身于科学
She dresses very modestly.

她衣着非常端庄。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
modest是个形容词,表示谦虚的(看下例);也可表示恰当的,得体的,(衣着)端庄的。He is modest about his success.他在成功面前表现得很谦虚。
例句:
She wore a modest bathing suit.她穿一件不太暴露的游泳衣



She is an engaging girl.

她是个迷人的女孩。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
engaging表示可爱的,迷人的。 an engaging novel,一部引人入胜的小说。
例句:
Many people were attracted by her engaging smile.许多人被她迷人的微笑所吸引了

Reading on-line just takes a little getting used to.

在线阅读只需要习惯它。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
get used to something只适应某东西,上句中的getting used to是个动名词短语,把整一块都看作个名词就行了。It takes some time to get used to a new job.适应一份新的工作需要些时间。

例句:
It is very difficult to get used to working with heavy smokers.和烟瘾很重的人一同工作是非常难适应的


This radio can fit in the palm of my hand.

这收音机体积小到我可一手掌握。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
如果某东西能fit in the palm of one's hand 表明这东西迷你到能一手掌握。如果某人或某事是in the palm of one's hand也可表示在某人的掌控之中。

例:
Everything is in the palm of my hand.一切尽在我的掌握之中。
He is in the palm of my hand.他逃不出我的五指山

He is full of novel ideas.

他满脑子都是新奇的想法。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
常看到novel这单词都是用做名词表示小说,但上句的novel是个形容词,表示新的,新奇的,新颖的。

例:
That store sells many kinds of novel toys.那家商店出售多种新奇的玩具。

novelty是个名词,表示新颖,新奇的东西。 a novelty shop专卖新颖小巧而廉价的小玩意儿的个性小店


In my view,he is the best person for this job.

我个人认为他是这工作的最佳人选。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
view有风景的意思,在上句中view表示观点,看法。in my view=in my opinion 意思是在我看来,依我看。近似于I think/guess/feel/suppose(我想、我认为、我觉得)等表达形式,都是用来表示个人的看法或意见等。上句也可写成:I think he is the best person for this job/ In my opinion, he is the best person for this job.

例:
In my view/opinion, China is the greatest country on the world.
依我所看,中国是世界上最伟大的国家。



Are there any new blockbusters coming out?

有没有新的大片推出?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
blockbuster本指军事上的重磅炸弹,也能表示耗巨资制作的电影(大片)。come out表示(出版物的)出版或发行,(电影`唱片等的)推出。
例:
When will his new novel come out?他新创作的小说什么时候出版



He made a speech at the commencement.

他在毕业典礼上作了一次演讲。

----------------------------------------------------------------------
commencement,本指开始,因为毕业就相当于又一个开端,所以commencement在美国英语中也可表示毕业典礼,相当于graduation ceremony。当然,这个句子也可以说成,He made a speech at the graduation ceremony
