King's Ransom An Arm and a Leg A Fortune 含义：这三个词的含义都是一样的，就是指价格昂贵，付出很多钱才得到的意思。语气严重的程度也差不多，但King's Ransom一般用来指非个人的主体花了很大的代价，而其他两个多用于形容个人 - 你我他 - 花费了巨额代价。 例句： King's Ransom It costs the Canadian Liberal party a king's ransom to reach an agreement with other minority parties to overthrow the Conservatives; but a decision by the GG to support the suspending of parliament has put everything at the brink of all wasted for nothing. An Arm and a Leg A: Wow, nice new Porsche. How much it costs you? B: An arm and a leg of course! So now I have to hire someone to drive it for me! [ 本帖最后由 bulaohu 于 2008-12-8 11:44 编辑 ] |
