基本上絞盡腦汁也猜不出來 dab hand 的比喻意義,貌似不相干的單詞居然能拼寫出一個高手來,dab hand 可以意為“高手,能手,好手”,后面經(jīng)常跟介詞 at,寓意:
expert
專家
adept at
擅長
one skillful at
擅長…的人
a person who is an expert at a particular activity
在某一特定活動中是專家的人
someone specially skilled at a task
專門從事某項任務的人
例如:
She was a dab hand at tennis and played for her school.My friend was too weak in all computer studies, but now he's become a dab hand at Internet and Software.我的朋友在所有的計算機學習方面都太弱了,但現(xiàn)在他已經(jīng)精通因特網(wǎng)和軟件了。Try one spoon of this pasta and you'll agree she is a dab hand at making great Italian foods.嘗一勺這種意大利面食,你就會認為她是制作意大利美食的高手。George is a dab hand at tennis, he is always in this game.喬治網(wǎng)球打得很好,他總是參加這項運動。
Barbara is a dab hand at chopping onions fast and without tears.For our new car garage, we are required a experienced mechanic who is a dab hand at engine repairing.對于我們的新汽車修理廠,我們需要一位熟練修理發(fā)動機的有經(jīng)驗的技工。My 4 years old son is amazingly a dab hand at using mobile phones.If you want to be a dab hand at chess you need to work hard.I am a dab hand in touch typing on computer keyboard and typewriters more than you do on mobile phones to send texts.我是一個在電腦鍵盤和打字機上打字的能手,比你在手機上發(fā)短信要多。在某方面是內(nèi)行的可以用 be expert at/in sth/doing sth,但是若能使用 dab hand at 就顯得層次很高。如果有人問,英語水平高低具體差別有哪些,那么在用詞方面的講究就有很大的區(qū)別。
