Bill always stay up all night.
关于“熬夜”的各种地道说法吧。
1.stay up熬夜
eg:I want to stay up tonight and watch the late show.今晚我不想睡觉,等着看深夜电视节目。
eg:I will make this radio work even if I have to stay up all night.即使通宵不眠,我也要把这台收音机修好。
2.Burn the midnight oil (熬夜)
以前的人都是用油灯来照明,如果有人在深夜时分燃点灯油,即表示那个人仍在努力的埋头苦干。现今,我们已不会再燃点油灯,但是这意思依然保留下来,因而有Burn the midnight oil这个成语的出现。
Burn the midnight oil
是指通宵达旦地工作,亦即是我们所谓的开夜车。要Burn the midnight oil
的时候,实在是一件令人劳累的事,那么,大家就要小心身体了!
eg:“Angela is a workaholic. She always burns the midnight oil on her work. Angela是一个工作狂,她时常也在通宵工作。
