大家好,今天我们分享的短语是“draw the line”,它的含义不是指“画条线”,其正确的理解是:
draw the line(at)绝不做;拒绝做
I swear a lot, but even I draw the line at saying certain words.
我经常说脏话,但即便如此有些话我绝不会说。
It's necessary to make a profit in business,but one should draw a line at doing anything that it in any way harmful to others.
在生意中获取利润很正常,但是人们应该绝不能做损害他人的事情。
I'm not opposed to cleaning our apartment, but washing your dirty dishes is where I draw the line.
我并不反对打扫我们的公寓,但是刷你的碗我绝对不做。
I draw the line at giving them more money.
我绝对不会给他们更多的钱。
