猜猜guess[英][ɡes] [美][ɡɛs] 一只漂亮的纯种狗来到我们的后门廊并已此为家了。我丈夫为当地的“失物招领”栏目构思了一则广告。它是这样写的：“小狗，雄性，近九个月年龄，无项圈，很友善，发现于石桥路。” 我害怕这样的细节会给那些昧着良心要狗的人以可乘之机。我有条不紊地解释为什么每个线索都透露得太多，我丈夫就尽职地划去一些词。终于，出于为难，他重新写了广告，把它缩为一个我无法反驳的句子。 它是这样写的：“猜猜我发现了什么？” After a beautiful purebred puppy wandered onto our back porch and made himself at home, my husband composed an ad for the "Lost and found" column of the local newspaper. It read: "A puppy, male, approximately nine months old, no collar, very friendly, found on Rockbridge Road." I feared all the detail might encourage an unscrupulous person to claim the dog. As I methodically explained why each clue revealed too much, my husband dutifully crossed out the words. Finally, in frustration, he rewrote the ad, reducing it to a single sentence that I couldn't refute. It read: "Guess what I found?" 中英文例句 The suit was faultless: Wood guessed that he was a very successful publisher or a banker... 西装无可挑剔：伍德推测他可能是个相当成功的出版商或银行家。 You can only guess at what mental suffering they endure... 你只能猜测他们忍受着多大的精神痛苦。 Paula reached for her camera, guessed distance and exposure, and shot two frames... 葆拉伸手拿过照相机，估算了一下距离和曝光时间，然后拍了两张照片。 Guess what I did for the whole of the first week... 猜猜我整个第一周都干了些什么。 If she guessed wrong, it meant twice as many meetings the following week. 如果她猜测错误，那就意味着下周的会议要多上一倍。 By now you will have guessed that I'm back in Ireland... 你现在应该已经猜出我回到了爱尔兰了。 As you've probably guessed, the problem was electrical... 你们可能已经猜测出来了，这个问题与电有关。 He should have guessed what would happen... 他本该猜到即将发生什么事情。 |
