早安!今天跟大家分享的表达是:
He is just keeping up with the Joneses. 他只是在和别人攀比。

笔记
The Joneses,并不是真正指“一家人叫做这个名字”。而是指代的“你的朋友或者邻居”。Keep up with这个短语表示“跟上”的含义。For example, keep up with the news,了解新闻,keep up with the fashion trend跟上时尚潮流。So, keeping up with the Joneses跟上朋友、邻居,指的就是“攀比”这种现象。
我们在读这句话的时候,要注意 keep up with 的连读, keep 是辅音结尾,up 是元音开头,所以会读作 keepup.
