单词“luck 运气”的表达
Just my luck 真倒霉
这句话其实带有负面含义,自认倒霉时可以用。
例句:I only parked for a minute on the double yellow lines and I got a ticket. Just my luck. 我在双黄线上才停了1分钟,结果就吃了张罚单。真够倒霉的。
No such luck 没那份运气
例句:He was trying really hard to repair that dripping tap. No such luck, it’s impossible to fix, it has to be replaced. 他想方设法的想修好滴水的龙头。不过没这运气,修不好,必须得换个新的。(BBC英语教学)
