【句子】-- A stop sign.


-- It's addressed to you.  【Modern Family S3E19】


【发音】/ə/ /stɒp/ /stɑːp/ /saɪn/  /ɪts/ /əˈdrest/ /tə/ /juː/


【发音技巧】stop sign不完全爆破;It's addressed连读;addressed to失去爆破; 


【翻译】—— 一个停车标志。


——上面写着你是收件人。


【适用场合】


今天我们来一起学习一下这样一个表达,叫做:address sth. (to sb./sth.),可以理解成:“写给某个人收”,“寄给某个人”这样的意思;下面我们来看看对应的英文解释:


to write the name and address of a particular person or organization on an envelope, package, etc.


或者再来看这条英文解释:If a letter, envelope, or parcel is addressed to you, your name and address have been written on it.


而且这个用法中,我们很经常用到被动语态的结构。


 


eg: Would you help me address these envelopes?


你能帮我写一下这些信封的收件人和寄件人吗?


 


eg: This letter is addressed to Alice.


这封信是寄给爱丽丝的。


 


eg: The letter was correctly addressed, but delivered to the wrong house.


这封信地址写对了,但是却被投递到了错误的房子。


 


eg: Address your application to the Personnel Manager.


请将你的申请信寄给人事部经理。


 


eg: So why did you open a letter that was addressed to me?


那你为什么拆开写着我名字的信?

The parcel was wrongly addressed.
