暴跳如雷,用英语怎么表达
因为人是有感情的,有感情就会产生情绪。其中生气是其中最常见的情绪之一,但是气大伤身,因此要控制自己的情绪,减少发脾气的次数。其实很多的争吵都是围绕一些鸡毛蒜皮的事情,主要还是碌碌无为或无所事事造成的。生气只是一种情绪,但是在英语中“生气”的表达方式数不胜数,有的使人怒火中烧,有的大发雷霆,有的暴跳如雷,如 get sb's goat,piss sb off 和 bite one's head off 等等,它们都可以表示“暴跳如雷”。1. get sb's goat:Don’t let Mary get your goat. She’s just irritable today.别让玛丽惹你生气。她今天很烦躁。If there's one thing that gets my goat, it's some fashion critic telling us what we can and can't wear.如果有一件事让我恼火的话,那就是一些时尚评论家告诉我们什么可以穿,什么不能穿。2. piss sb off:Her attitude really pisses me off.她的态度让我厌烦极了。John was so pissed off when he found out that someone else had been given the promotion instead of him.当约翰发现别人代替他升职时,他非常生气。3. bite/snap one's head off:I don't know what's wrong with Julia but she snapped my head off just now.我不知道茱莉亚怎么了,但她刚才在生我的气。He was only making a suggestion — there’s no need to snap his head off!他只是在提个建议,没必要生他的气!相比于以上表达方式,lose one's temper 所表示的生气的程度没有那么大,例如:She never lost her temper, never raised her voice.她从不发脾气,从不da's大嗓门。还有一个非常形象的习语 hit the roof,字面意思是“打天花板”,它的构造方法与 hit the road 类似;可想而知,hit the roof 有怒发冲冠的感觉,用来表示非常生气,可以意为“暴跳如雷,勃然大怒,大发雷霆”等,例如:When the referee disallowed his goal, he hit the roof and was given a red card.当裁判驳回他的进球时,他勃然大怒并被红牌罚下。Dad will hit the roof when he finds out I dented the car.爸爸发现我把车撞坏了,一定会大发雷霆的。My parents are going to hit the roof if they find out we had a party here!如果我父母发现我们在这里开派对,他们会大发雷霆的!The boss hit the roof when he saw that we'd already blown through the budget.老板看到我们已经把预算花光了,大发雷霆。跟 hit the roof 的程度相当的还有 annoy,irritate,enrage 或 infuriate 等单词,不过这些单词主要用来表示使某人大怒或生气,例如:annoy:It annoys me that you're always late.你总是迟到,我很生气。irritate:After a while her behaviour really began to irritate me.过了一会儿,她的行为真的开始激怒我了。enrage:Plans to build a new nightclub in the neighbourhood have enraged local residents.在附近建一家新夜总会的计划激怒了当地居民。infuriate:Her silence infuriated him even more.她的沉默使他更加愤怒了。很多人只把 anger 当名词使用,其实 anger 也可以作动词,意为“使发怒,激怒”,例如:The question clearly angered him.这个问题显然激怒了他。It always angers me to see so much waste.看到这么多浪费总是让我生气。乱发脾气不是本事,一个人只要有了为之奋斗的伟大目标,就会渐渐远离鸡毛蒜皮的事情,从而最大程度地减少乱发脾气的次数。词或词组辨析:
