首先,給在介紹一個(gè)英語詞組:”call for”表示“需要,要求”: More work doesn't necessarily call for more men. 增加工作不一定要增加人員。 The letter calls for an investigation of the facts. 來信要求對這些事實(shí)進(jìn)行調(diào)查。
現(xiàn)在進(jìn)入我們今天的正課,如何活用“talk”來表達(dá)更多的意思:
首先,Talk somebody into something/doing something 勸說某人做某事 She talked her husband into having a holiday in France. 她勸說丈夫去法國度假。 Can you talk your brother into our plans? 你能勸說你哥哥加入我們的計(jì)劃嗎?
Talk somebody out of something/doing something 勸說某人不做某事 He talked his wife out of buying a new car. 他勸說他太太不要買輛新車 My parents talked me out of marrying that man. 我父母勸說我不要嫁給那個(gè)男人。
Talk somebody over to something 說服某要同意或接受某事物。 We talked them over to our proposal. 我們說服他們接受我們的方案。 You’ll never talk me over to your way of doing things. 你永遠(yuǎn)不可能說服我接受你的做事方式。
