LouisaLarry回英国处理姨妈的遗产,留下三个孩子看家,可想而知家里会乱成什么样了!英语君总结了三个常用知识点,来看看吧。

1. hold off

hold off的本意是推迟,延迟,特指雨或风暴的话,意思是延缓,迟迟不来。

Let's hold off making a decision until next week.
我们推迟到下周再作决定吧。

2. put sth up

put up是个超级常见的短语,在这里是张挂,悬挂的意思。

这里分享以下它的常见用法:

①举起,抬起,升起;高高固定起

Why don't you put up your umbrella?
你怎么不撑伞?

②建造

They're planning to put a hotel up where the museum used to be.
他们打算在原来的博物馆那里建一个宾馆。

③张挂,悬挂;张贴

我们在起居室里挂上了新窗帘。

④提供(资金),借(钱)

The money for the new hospital was put up by an anonymous donor.
建造新医院的资金是一位匿名捐赠者提供的。

3. go so far as 

有人夸Louisa很美是女神,Larry说这太夸张了。

go so far as to do sth的意思是做事情走极端:

It's good, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's great.
挺好的,但是我不会极端到说棒极了。
