Excrcise



Mrs. Smith couldn't get her husband to excrcise.



She asked Mrs. Jones what she should do.



Mrs. Jones replied, "Tape the remote control between his toes."







Notes:



1. Mrs. Smith couldn't get her husband to excrcisc.



史密斯太太没办法说服她的丈夫锻炼身体。



"get sb. to do sth."表示“促使某人做某事”,有“说服”的意思。



许多妻子都有这样的困扰,丈夫越來越懒,不爱运动,就只会坐在沙发上看电视、吃垃圾食物(junk food),也就是美国所谓的“沙发马铃薯”(couch 1 potato)。



exercise v.运动



couch n.长沙发



couch potato 整天躺在沙发上看电视的懒人



2.She asked Mrs. Jones what she should do.



她问琼斯大太该怎么办。



3. Mrs. Jones replied, "Tape the remote control between his toes."



琼斯大大回答:“把遥控器用胶带粘在他的脚趾间。”



既然丈夫那么爱看电视,为了能让丈夫运动,只有把电视遥控器粘在他的脚趾间,他不得不伸手去按,顺便做一下仰卧起坐(sit-up)。



remote adj.遥控的



remote control 遥控器



toe n.脚趾



sit-up n.仲卧起坐



1 couch
n.睡椅,长沙发椅;vt.表达,隐含
  • Lie down on the couch if you're feeling ill.如果你感觉不舒服就躺到沙发上去。
  • The rabbIt'sprang from its grassy couch.兔子从草丛中跳出。
