How would you feel if you were surrouned by eight sons all day long?
The American TV series that I'm going to recommend is a new one. It tells a story about a family with eight kids living in the 1970s, with the depression being the social background.
家庭题材的美剧一直都是比较令人喜欢的。Unlike Chinese ones that focus on relationship between mother-in-laws and daughter-in-laws(婆媳关系),this one is more of a comedic thing.
The kids are alright
Being a mom, who cares nothing but the happiness of her family, needs great courage.
Parents tend to act differently when it comes to parenting(教育孩子), this couple is no exception.
当热啦,看美剧肯定还是可以学英语哒~
make a spectacle of oneself
出洋相,大大出丑,丢人现眼
解析:spectacle 精彩的表演;壮观的场面;壮观的景象;奇特的现象
在这里spectacle也就是有点讽刺意思啦~
easy-peasy
简单得很
Easy Peasy, Lemon Squeezy的意思是:简简单单、小事一桩,像挤柠檬一样轻而易举地简单。这是一句相当于口语的俏皮话,为了押韵,将peace 讲成peasy,squeeze讲成squeezey。使用在表述一件事情很容易就能完成的语境中。
The play is definitely to be continued...(未完待续)
