"rack"有剝削、榨取,使痛苦的意思,rack your brain 就是剝削榨取你的大腦,使之痛苦。你絞盡腦汁思考問題的時候是不是就覺得hin痛苦呢~例如:

把這些密碼都寫在一張紙上,你就不用絞盡腦汁去記了。

Turn a blind eye to sth

視而不見

一遇上某件事就變成盲人,對~這是一項(xiàng)叫做“視而不見”的技能,也可以說shut / close your eyes to something~

舉個例子:

嗚,小編覺得"Money talks" could not be applied to every situation. (“有錢能使鬼推磨”不能適用于所有場合。)

以上這些俗語的英語表達(dá)大家都學(xué)會了嗎~學(xué)會的話拿去考考別人哦!
