 选秀节目


国外也有很多选秀节目,类似American idol,The Voice。如果要支持哪位选手,最常用的词是:
Vote: 投票,投票支持
在某些生存战的节目中,也会出现让观众投票把某人淘汰的机制:
Vote somebody off: 把某人投下去
最后赢家
在一些比赛、奖项相关的竞争中,其实也会用pick这个词:
Who's your pick? 你认为谁能赢?
但pick在此并不是表示“支持”谁,而是指最后的赢家。
Which team is your pick?你认为哪支队伍最后能够获胜?
Brazil.巴西
队友玩伴
在挑选短期的队友、玩伴时,比如小朋友们做游戏,每个队的captain(队长)都要挑选自己的队员,可以说:
Pick your team mates 1: 挑选你的队员
Pick a team: 挑选一支队伍
精选推荐
Pick作为名词(而且往往是复数形式)还有一种非常常见的用法,表示是经过筛选的,非常有品质的内容:
Editor's picks: 编辑精选推荐
Oscar picks: 奥斯卡金像奖热门
Top picks for a beach vacation: 沙滩度假优选
问别人的想法
如果你想问别人的想法,让别人帮你参谋一下,英语可以说:
Pick your brain: 帮我参谋参谋
怎么用:
Can I pick your brain about something for a bit?你能帮我参谋一下吗?
面临选择
面临选择,尤其是选择很多你一直纠结不知道该选哪一个,你身边的朋友可能会这样说:
Just pick one: 快随便选一个吧
Just pick anything: 随你选什么,快选吧
这个说法听起来会有一些不耐烦,使用的时候一定要注意哦。
错误选择
当你谈起自己错误的选择时,也可以用到pick:
I picked the wrong career: 我选错行业了。
I picked a bad time to do something: 我选错了时机去做某事
针对某人
在讲到人的时候,pick有一个不太友好的用法:
Pick on someone: 针对一个人
Get picked on: 被针对
怎么用:
He gets picked on by the other boys because he's so small. 他因为个头太小被其它男孩们针对。
另外,还有一个词你在国外旅游的时候或许能够用上:
Toothpick: 牙签

[英]伙伴( mate的名词复数 ); 同伴; (非正式)配偶; (熟练工人的)助手
  • He's out boozing with his mates. 他和他的朋友们喝酒去了。
  • They've been best mates since school. 他们从上学时期以来就是最要好的朋友。
