  1.put up or shut up要么行动要么就闭嘴。例句:You keep saying you're going to ask her out. Well, put up or shut up.你一直说要约她去约会,那么,要么行动起来,要么就别逼逼。

  2.Now you’re talking!你这么说才好!用在他人提出更好的建议时,表示之前对方说的话或提议都不值一提,如:A: We could go to a movie… or we could hit the bar and get drunk.我们可以去看场电影……或者我们可以去酒吧一醉方休。B: Now you’re talking!这么说才好嘛!

  3.我们常说的着装打扮“走……路线”怎么说?Going for the ___ look,也就是尝试某种风格的着装打扮;例如:She's going for the cute look.她走的是可爱路线。I'm going for the mature look.我在尝试走成熟路线。你甚至可以用人名表示走某个人物的风格,如:I'm going for the Harry Potter look.

  4.something never gets old, means you like it very much and you never get tired of it.中文意思是你很喜欢某事物,从不觉得厌烦,也相当于中文里的“百听不厌、百看不厌”等;例如:I like Adele a lot. Her music never gets old.我很喜欢阿黛尔,她的音乐真是百听不厌。与之相反的:get old则表示:to be annoying due to repetition,即因为重复而变得枯燥、烦人;例如:I'm sick of him making promises and not keeping them. It's getting old. I can't believe you've listened to this song over 100 times! It's getting old, man!

  5.That’s what I say.我就是这么说的,我就是这个意思,表示我同意刚刚他人说的话,例句:A: We gotta do something right now or we’ll lose everything.我们得立即行动起来,不然我们会失去一切的。B: That’s what I say.我就是这个意思。
