迷你对话

B: My God! I was out like a light.
天啊,我睡着了。
地道表达
be out like a light
1. 解释
Like a light的意思与“灯”没有任何关系,其实际意思是“睡着”。而对话中在like a light前面有个副词out,即为:out like a light,其意思就带有“不省人事,昏睡,被击昏”的意思了。
2. 例句
e.g. After the sustained effort of the day I lay down on the bed and went out like a light.
持续不断地苦干了一整天后,我一躺在床上就昏昏入睡了。
e.g. After working a twelve hour shift yesterday, I was out like a light as soon as I got into bed.
昨天经过十二小时轮班工作后,我一躺到床上就睡着了。
