今天小编为大家准备了比较实用的英语口语对话,希望对大家有所帮助,接下来跟小编一起来看看吧。 A: You come back so earlly. The party is boring? 你回来的这么早。舞会没意思? B: All the boys and girls were dancing at the party while I sat at a tablealone, feeling like a fifth wheel.晚会上,所有的男孩和女孩都在跳舞,只有我孤零零地坐在桌边,感觉自己仿佛是一个多余的人。 虽然现在很多机车,特别是越野车的后面也会备上一个备用轮胎,但它们称之为spare wheel,或者spare tyre. 而不能称为the fifthwheel. 更多例句: The chair is a fifth wheel, please take it away. 这把椅子是多余的,请把它搬走。 A mother-in-law on a honeymoon is a fifth wheel. 度蜜月时,丈母娘是个大电灯泡。
We decided to fire that worker, he was just a fifth wheel.我们决定开除那个工人,他不过是个多余无用之人。 My son asked me to come help at his school track meet I felt fifth wheelwhen I got there: they already had enough people to help so I stood therefeeling useless.我的儿子要我在他学校开运动会的时候去帮忙。可是,我到了那里觉得自己似乎是多余的,他们已经有好多人在帮忙,我只好站在那里没事干。” 有关the fifth wheel的用法我们暂时了解到这里,记得一定要和sparewheel进行区别。它们分别表示“无用的;局外人”和“备用轮胎”。
