The scariest monsters are the ones that lurk within our souls.
最可怕的怪物,其实潜伏在我们的灵魂深处。
perish the thought
用于表达对某个不愉快或不好的想法的强烈否定或拒绝,类似“没门儿,甭想了”。
这个短语的起源已无法考证,但大概率源于其字面意思,即毁灭思想。试想下,希望他人把思想消灭于萌芽,可不就得强烈拒绝嘛。这个短语常用于回应某人提出的想法或建议,以表示强烈的反对或不同意。它意味着希望那个不好的想法或情况永远不要发生或不要被考虑。
此外,以下短语也可以用来表示要求他人打消念头:
forbid the thought
fade the idea
dispel the notion
dismiss the concept
As they discussed their future plans, Sarah mentioned the possibility of them not being friends anymore. John, taken aback, quickly responded, "Perish the thought, Sarah! We have been through thick and thin, and our friendship will always remain strong." Sarah realized her comment had struck a nerve and immediately regretted bringing it up. She reassured John that she valued their friendship above all and would never want it to end. They both laughed and agreed that their bond was unbreakable. From that moment on, they cherished their friendship even more, vowing to support each other no matter what challenges lay ahead.
当他们讨论他们的未来计划时,莎拉提到了他们可能不再是朋友的可能性。约翰感到吃惊,迅速回答道:“不要说这种话,莎拉!我们无论经历了什么,我们的友谊永远都将坚固不移。”莎拉意识到她的评论触动了约翰的敏感神经,立刻后悔地提起这个话题。她向约翰保证,她珍视他们的友谊胜过一切,绝不希望它终结。他们都笑了起来,并且一致认为他们之间的纽带是不可分割的。从那一刻起,他们更加珍惜彼此的友谊,誓言无论面对何种挑战,都会互相支持。
