點滴英語天天學第27期:Tim想套磁沒成功(短語詳解7)
各位親愛的聽眾朋友，歡迎來到Juliet的《原味美語》課堂！Juliet將帶您體驗美國哈弗，美國紐約大學口語課堂的學習內容。Let's go!
首先，我們還是先來回顧一下Jack描述的故事：
Jack: Oh! No. There's Bonnie Margolin. A year ago, some mutual friends of ours fixed us up because they thought we would hit it off. Unfortunately, she was on the rebound, so I didn't want to get involved. I tired to let her down easy but she got furious and started screaming at me. Oh, no! She's coming. Run!
今天，我們來學習的內容是“hit it off”這個原味表達。To hit it off means to quickly become good friends with someone or to form an immediate, positive connection with someone.譯為：一下就合得來，相處得融洽。在“愛情”這個話題上，可以説為：一見鍾情，一拍即可等。要表示“和某人一下就合得來”，在短語的後面加上介詞with，即：hit it off with someone。
我們來看下面的例句：
E.g. I just knew you and Haley would hit it off—you two have so much in common. （我只是認識你而已，Haley和你一拍即合，因為你們兩人有很多共同語言。）
Ps : have something in common：有共同之處
E.g. I'm so glad that you hit it off with my father. He isn't always the easiest person to get to know. （我很高興你和我的父親相處得很好，他不總是一個容易瞭解的人。）
Ps ：get to know：瞭解；認識
E.g. He took her out on a date but they didn't really hit it off．（他約她出去過一回，可是他們好像不大合得來。）
Ps : take sb. out on a date：約某人出去約會
E.g. John and Mark hit it off as soon as they they're very close friends.（約翰同邁克一見如故，現在他們是好朋友。）
Ps : hit if off as soon as sb. and sb. meet (right from the start) ：一見如故
我們再來看一個小對話，進一步把握hit it off的意思和運用：
A: Look how John hit it off with Mary. （瞧瞧John和Mary相處得多融洽啊！）
B : Yes, they really hit it off.（是的，他們真的合得來。）
那麼，“They thought we would hit it off.”這句話用標準英語來説，則是：They thought we would enjoy each other's company.
Well, that is all for today. 歡迎繼續關注Juliet的每日《原味美語》課堂。See you tomorrow!
