62. This doesn't mean to put on airs and say "Do you know who I am?"
点睛
本句的听力难点在于对短语put on airs的理解,put on airs意为“装腔作势,摆架于”,该含义也可通过之后的问句Do you know who I am? 你知道我是谁吗?推断得出。考点归纳
air做名词时除了本义“气体,空气”外,还有以下几种意思:用作复数时,通常表示“装腔作势,摆架子”:airs and graces, give oneself airs。如:
Even when she became a professor, she didn't have any airs and graces. 即使在成为教授之后,她也毫无架子。
Don't give yourself airs! It makes you look ridiculous. 不要装腔作势,那只会让你看起来很可笑。
表示“气氛,氛围”。如:
There is an air of excitement at the conference. 会上气氛激昂。
表示“空中”。如:
The kite is flying in the air. 风筝正在空中飞翔。
The news is on the air. 广播正在播送新闻。
