02bad news的特殊用法
此外,我們常用的bad news還有別的用法,即給某人或某物貼上標(biāo)簽。
例如,如果你知道一個(gè)人總是在工作中陷入麻煩或與上級(jí)發(fā)生沖突,你可以說(shuō):
That person is bad news.
那個(gè)人是個(gè)大麻煩。
That company is bad news. (Like a person the company has a bad reputation.)
那家公司很差勁。(像一個(gè)人一樣,公司的聲譽(yù)也很差。)
I’ve heard those cars are bad news. (A type of car that has many problems.)
我聽(tīng)說(shuō)那些車(chē)很糟糕。(一種有很多問(wèn)題的汽車(chē)。)
如果之后要傳達(dá)一些不好的消息,試著用上面的表達(dá)吧,給接收消息的人平靜情緒的時(shí)間。
