19. Oh, yes, that's our busiest time. I get Wednesdays off.
點睛
get...off意為“（某天）休息”，get off則表示“停止工作”其中off本身含有“停止，中斷”之意，和get, be, take等動詞組成短語時，可表示“不工作，不上學(xué)，休息”。如：I was off with the flu yesterday. 我因感染了流感昨天休息了。You look tired; you should take tomorrow off. 你看起來很疲憊，明天應(yīng)該休息一下。
考點歸納
聽力中，與off相關(guān)的短語還有：
badly off意為“生活貧困；運氣不佳”
Her family is badly off. 她的家庭生活貧困。
better off意為“情況好些，生活比較寬裕”
We are better off economically. 我們的經(jīng)濟狀況好些了。
from the off［俚］意為“從頭開始”
The sitcom is perfect from the off. 這部情景喜劇從一開始就很完美。
off and on意為“斷斷續(xù)續(xù)；不時地”
I slept off and on last night. 我昨晚時睡時醒。
聽音解惑
get Wednesdaysoff［ɡet ?wenzdiz?f］里的［z］與［?］相鄰，讀作［ɡet ?wenzdi z?f］。
