 Subject: It is no laughing matter.


迷你对话A: I want to take the students out for a trip. If I don’t, they will not like me.
我想带学生出去游玩。如果我不这样的话,他们就不会喜欢我了。
B: It’s no laughing matter. You may get fired for what you do.
这可不是闹着玩的。你可能因为你的所作所为而被解雇。
地道表达 laughing matter1. 解词释义Laughing matter是指“无关紧要的事情,开玩笑的事情”。但是no laughing matter相当于not a laughing matter,意思是指“此事不可言笑”“此事非儿戏,是正经事”。这个俚语用来告诫对方请严肃地看待事情和所发生的问题,因为它是不能随意可以开玩笑或闹着玩的。
2. 拓展范例e.g. Your lateness is no laughing matter.
你迟到可不是件可以一笔了之的小事。
e.g. Their behaviour is an offence 1. It's no laughing matter.
他们这么做是犯罪,这可不是开玩笑的。
e.g. I know you like to joke, but this is no laughing matter.
我知道你爱开玩笑,但这可不是件好玩儿的事。
e.g. I can't believe it! I have all my important personal documents stored in that computer. Now I cannot find them. It's no laughing matter.
我简直不敢相信!我将所有重要的私人资料都存入电脑了。现在我找不到了,这可不是闹着玩的。
Ps 1: take sb. out for sth.的意思是“带某人出去做某事”。例如:
I would love to take my daughter out for a show tonight.
今晚我很想带我女儿出去看场演出。
Ps 2:get fired for something的意思是“因......而被解雇”。例如:
In this company you can get fired for slightest mistake.
在这家公司,你犯个小错就可能被解雇。

n.犯法(行为),罪过,过错
  • She felt she had committed an offence against the right of others.她觉得自己侵犯了他人的权利。
