84. I don't know how you can eat so much yet never put on any weight.
點睛
put on weight意為“體重增加,發(fā)福”。該句意為“我不明白,為什么你吃這么多卻長不胖呢?”
考點歸納
與weight有關(guān)的口語詞匯和短語還有:
overweight(超重),口語中一般不說He is fat,而會委婉地表達為He is overweight,因為fat是不禮貌的用詞。
gain weight(長胖),相當于put on weight。與此相對的短語是lose weight(減肥)。如:
Gaining weight can be as challenging to some people as losing weight is to others. 對于有些人來說,增加體重的難度幾乎相當于另一些人減肥的難度。
gross weight意為“毛重”。如:
The gross weight of the box of chocolates is 500 grams. 那盒巧克力的總重量(毛重)是500克。
