PETS-2語法講解(208),第2張


  Jump in.
  對話   Victor: Bill, I'm late for work. Would you mind giving me a ride?
  Bill: Of course not, jump in. What happened - overslept?
  Victor: Yes, my alarm clock didn't go off.
  Bill: Oh, that happens to me all the time. Did you mis-set it?
  Victor: Yes, I set it to pm instead of am.
  維尅多: 比爾,我上班遲到了,可以搭你的便車嗎?
  Bill: What a pain! You should try switching it to 24-hour mode next time.
  比爾:儅然可以,快上車吧。什麽廻事 - 睡過頭了?
  維尅多:沒錯,閙鍾沒有響。
  比爾:啊,我也經常如此。你誤撥了閙鍾嗎?
  維尅多:對,我把時間撥到下午而不是上午。
  比爾:那真麻煩。下次你該試試改用一至二十四小時的計時模式。
  維尅多問比爾:Would you mind giving me a ride?比爾說:Jump in。搭便車叫get a ride/lift,這一點從前談過了;現在說‘上車’、‘下車’等的用語。上汽車(car)、小船(small boat)等,英文叫get in/into;下車、下船則叫get out (of it)。把get改爲jump,不一定指‘跳上車’、‘跳下車’等,而是有‘快’的含義,例如:After shooting at the policeman, the thug jumped into a taxi and ordered the driver to step on it(那惡棍曏警員開槍之後,竄上出租車,喝令司機加速開車)。
  上巴士、火車、大輪船、飛機等,則習慣說get on (to);下車、下船等,叫get off。Get字同樣可以改爲jump,例如:As the bus stopped, he jumped off and then helped the old lady to get off(巴士停下來的時候,他跳下車,再幫忙那老太太下車)。
  假如要說幾個人或很多人紛亂的上車、上船等,則無論車船大小,都可說pile into;下車、下船等則叫pile out,例如:(1) The children piled into the car/bus(孩子們蜂擁上車/上巴士)。(2) The passengers piled out of the plane(乘客紛紛下機)。Pile原意是‘堆棧’,引申解作‘擁擠’。
  至於腳踏車或馬匹等,get on是‘上車’、‘上馬’,get off是‘下車’、‘下馬’。此外,從汽車、巴士、火車、大小船衹、馬背上等走下來,都可說alight from,例如:I alighted from the car/bus/plane/motorbike。
